Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire A though on the religious threads

You mean like believing in evolution?

Actually, you can have a great debate about evolution, with both sides picking and choosing how to apply the scientific method to the data we have.

You can't do that with religion. And, since you can't logically "prove" a negative, it's all mental masturbation

I guess you're not familiar with legal historical evidence. Facts are facts whether we accept them or not.

This is aimed at those who name the name of Christ as important and integral to their life.

If your view of others in relation to your view of Christ and yourself cause you to view non-believers or those of another religion in such a way that you dehumanize them, see them in a lesser way than you view yourself, your view of God and yourself is in need of a catastrophic immediate evaluation.

Lets all go to a religious forum and discuss guns and hunting....What a load of BS

Noted infamous evolutionists like Adolph Hitler.....

Hitler was Catholic.....Just saying.

What, specifically, are you stating is "fact" that can be objectively verified and doesn't require faith to believe?

Just as evidence is presented in court one can present evidence from history. The most documented fact of history prior to the printing press is the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. Both protagonist and antagonist gave opinions about the time Christianity starter. No one challenged His histoity.

Rabid, proselytizing, bible spouting Christians are no better, than rabid, proselytizing, Marx-Engels spouting Democrats( marxists, socialists, progressives). They both KNOW BETTER than the proletariat/unbeliever. The Christians and the Democrats, in their minds are so morally superior to the bourgeoisie that they feel it is their duty to tell the unbeliever not only how to live but what to believe. And also what is to be rendered unto Caesar. Stunning supreme elitist arrogance. Even the 'Master Race' did not require every person to join the Nazi Party. I suppose there are Christian bashing atheists, I don't know any, speaking for myself only, I just would prefer not to be told what is best for me or my family, by Democrats or Christians. Good Christians lead by example rather than finger pointing and lecturing, shunning and witch burning. When you are stuck in the bible belt, the Christian principles of humility, love, and tolerance are harder to find than one might suppose.

As written by God through special men. Apparently "judge not" doesn't need interpretation. So it stands to reason "judge with righteous judgment" is just as clear. That is to those who are not "willfully ignorant."

That's some palpable hatred right there. Let it flow, let it flow.

Comparing me to Hitler is one thing but DEMOCRATS? Man that's a low blow.

I had not considered the Special Men - hard to logic my way out of that one. Food for thought, thank you.

On the topic of special boys, are you familiar with Joseph Smith?

He was a very special boy. He received a record of sorts from an angel on some hill in BFE, NY. Gold tablets in a special angel language that only he could understand. He translated them and began to convert people. Some of the folks wanted to see the tablets, unfortunately he lost them. NOT to worry though, he promised he wouldn't lie about something important like the written word of god. Fast forward we now have the LDS and special undies.
