Marriage and procreation...
 
If God wants you to be married before procreation, but he allowed humans to be fertile at such a young age. Most people want their children to be around twenty or older when they get married so they don't make stupid choices. So, are they going against the christian God? Why, if he exists, would he give us sexual maturity at such a young age if he didn't expect us to make children that early?

Welp... - hitches up trousers. - I should be getting on a fucking spree.

dude if you expect christianity to make sense you're the fool.

M&rk 01-01-07 07:15 PM

it doesn't say that u have to marry at a certian age, back in the midevil time people only lived till like 30s so they got married at like 14 and shit. but yo i dont believe in marriage anyway so w/e.

Maybe he did it to give people the chance to make their own decisions and "test" us in a way. Think about it, if there were a difference between heaven and hell, their have to be people to go to both, God's not going to make it so that everyone will be perfect and all get to heaven.

∆ P E X X 01-02-07 03:46 AM

if that "god" you believe in really loved you, he wouldn't allow someone to lure you into a place to torment you eternally, now would he? if the "god" you believe in were even one quarter as powerful as they tricked you to believe, he wouldn't have needed to "rest" after creating the earth, would he? I mean he created the entire infinite spread of the universe in a day, but took 6 days to create the earth?? lmao. if the "god" you believe in were so superior and were really everywhere and could see everything, he would have certainly seen satan conspiring and turning against him instead of falling for it like a sucker, now wouldn't he?

the "god" in your story book is either dead or a fool. you believe in a self conflicting control device you pawn.

Logic The Goonie 01-02-07 01:19 PM

I like to see that you think you know what I believe in and I LOVE to see that you're so fucked up in the head that you can't take anything at what it is and is claimed to be and instead come up with a trillion reasons why it's not. Not just this, I mean everything. I also think it's cool that you want to take the bible literally instead of symbolically. I could tear you apart in this argument you're attempting to start but you'll just end up making jokes about me being fat until I decide you're not worth my time, instead, I'll just make that decision now.

Crazy Hades 01-02-07 04:58 PM

I don't understand why people call Satan the epitome of evil either. I mean, he would've had some reason, being an angel, of going against God. If God is all powerful, the angel would've known the consequences. Or are we supposed to believe the angel is retarded? So when he's cast down, why did he suddenly decide he wants to torture everyone for no reason? If he did torture people, he'd be more like God's executioner than enemy, as God sends people down there. It's like a man giving his girlfriends to his friends when he's done with them.

That's the answer to everything --- something doesn't make sense because God is testing us, or because he's beyond logic.

I think it's more like nature or God allowed us to breed when we were young, and all these supposed "christians" are not teaching their kids to be mature and intelligent at a young age enough to procreate.

Why? Because I don't know what the most powerful and all knowing being is doing at all times and made an attempt at explaining a concept you won't believe because there's no "proof"? Oops, my fucking bad. I must be really dumb.

god is also a judge, well, here's what we do know, you can kill someone and never get caught. now here's what you don't know. is there a god that supposedly sees you and will judge you?

only thing you have to fall on are your "beliefs" of something you've never seen, heard, felt, tasted, or even experienced anywhere but in your imagination.

pretty thin premise to go basing a lifestyle on isn't it?


as a side note, you didn't adress any of those "shortcomings" of this would-be perfect being.

Sean Gunner 01-22-07 08:42 PM

The reason is back in ancient/medievel times, after some of the prophets that lived to be 800 years old, many people died before the age of 40. Now, in that period, you have to learn a craft, raise a family, and be sure your sons and daughters are ready for the rest of their lives. Now considering that most people cannot reproduce until 12, that gives you 28 years (if you get pregnant at that age) to establish a career, raise a family, and prepare your children to be ready for their life.

The only possible way we could survive is by marriage at early ages. This caused the population to grow, and because of modern medicine, we started to live longer but our bodies did not adapt to that.

It is believed that cave men did not live past 18 often.

So in essence, we needed to reproduce early on. Also, the laws of marriage are man made, not by God. We decided that children should not have children and raise families. Which I agree with no less, we no longer have to have kids so young, so we can enjoy life more.

haha your wrong

I have felt the pressence of God

I've learned I cant serve money and God

and Proverbs 16:3 says "Commit to the lord in everything you do and you will be blessed"

That there just shows me if I stay strong and commit what I do through him that I will be blessed..

You also have to think

Yeah apexx you have a porche,money,clothes all that junk..but do you think it goes with you when you die?

Why do those things mean so much to you?

Thats Why i store my treasures in heaven rather than earth because the greatest treasure on earth wouldn't compromise for the smallest thing in heaven

Compose 01-23-07 11:54 AM

if you act good and believe in god just so you can get nice things in heaven, doesnt that defeat the purpose of religion and finding yourself and all that

truth is most people who go to church etc. and all that DONT do it just cuz its "the right thing to do" and because they truly wanna enhance their soul and just be in the light of god, they do it cuz they think if they dont theyll go to hell and wont get all the nice perty shiny things in heaven

im gonna have to agree with apexx though that it seems naive and foolish to base an entire life off of something you have no clue exists, and im sure when i die god will understand that, what is god gonna punish me cuz i didnt blindly believe in every single thing the bible said or quran etc.? isnt that just a dictatorship, if anything i should be rewarded for using my mind to question all of these things, not just be a sheep following whatever some 2000 year old book tells me

PT, that stuff you just mentioned means nothing to me dude, that shit's not important to me. whats important to me was my spiritual development, and i've developed it to a level where i'm completed. everything ive wanted to accomplish, i've already done. all this extra stuff is just that, extra stuff.

and you saying you "felt the pressence of" god is akin to someone saying they "felt the effects of" a placebo pill. if the mind thinks its real, it becomes real. a book written by man, not god, tells you 'believe everything i tell you, and you will be blessed'. if you allow your self to be brainwashed by that book full of lies and contradictions, then anything inside is gonna seem real to you.

and you still keep running from the blatant contradictions of something you still can't verify exists. if your god is so powerful, why did he need to rest? all powerful beings don't need rest do they? money's the root of all evil. yet, your church will gladly take all your money. ironic isn't it? the bible tells you that adam was the first man, and woman came from him. yet, when you're emrbionic, you begin deveolping as a female and growing female parts before you ever even become a male. now...wouldn't it be the other way around if adam really came first? cmon man, the bible wanted us to believe that women menstruate because of eves "original sin", yet down the line we've learned that women menstruate because its integral to puberty and they wouldn't be able to ovulate without it. the same applies for gravity. at one time religion wantedyou to believe that god is what kept you down on this planet. yet newton discovered that it's actually a force called gravity. and the list of blatant contradicions goes on and on and on and on.


pull your head out the sand. if you're as brave as you say you are, look the truth in the face. look the truth in the eyes and say that the facts are lying and the bible is telling you the truth. put the non-facts in a higher place than facts, then ask your self how logical that is.

Past Tense 01-23-07 08:41 PM

simple and plain....people will come up with MILLIONS Of ways to try to attempt to say that God is not real or there is no heaven or hell because of PRIDE

I am not brainwashed in anyway


Psalm 53:1-3 says:

The fool hath said in his heart, "There is no God." Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good. God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God. Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

it dont matter what god wants or intends cuz truth is he aint down here making the rules...if theres a god then i'll abid to his rules and expectations in heaven (if thats where im goin hehe). but right now its the rules of the law and those in power down here so thats what i live my life by. if god exists and wants us to get married around the same time we gain our sexual maturity then he better come and say it or is he shy?

Im just telling you guys

Gods changed my life in more ways then I can account..and It says in the bible not to go back hanging out with the same people and that was problay a major influence on me going back to my old ways..it says your inspired by the people you hang around..but now i've gave up hanging around those people and listening to the same music and for once..i feel GOOD

notice how they just stray away from the blatant faults the bible have and can never combat the argument, i do believe there is a god, but at some point or another you cannot possibly say the bible is 100% right, science and logic has already proven otherwise

and heaven has got to be the worst place ever if everything is perfect, by that there would be no human traits meaning everyone would just be standing still doing nothing...what an amazing place -_-

Past Tense 01-23-07 11:22 PM

It also says in the bible those who think that they have gained all the wisdom of the earth are really fools

like I said people will deny the fact that Jesus died on the cross simply because of pride and disbelief

and Heaven will be all happiness the feeling of love and joy.......

they could mean perfect in your perspective of perfect..who knows maybe theres a diffrent heaven waiting for each one of us..its probably like diffrent for each person..if theres a heaven...like if i go to heaven i probably can smoke all i want and never have to worry bout having bad lungs and its perfect cuz i love smoking...or if i would hate smoking then there would be no such thing as a ciggerrette in heaven so it be perfect to me..like heaven is what u see it as...and god wont give a shit as long as u dont have any intentions to do anything god would consider evil...unperfect and evil is 2 diffrent things

said it all right there. you know, i used to be so deep into christianity it's mind boggling. read the bible cover to cover, was embraced by the pastors at my church, went to retreats frequently, even wanted to be a priest at one point. then an alarm went off in my head when i realized that i had to repeatedly ignore facts and suspend my supreme instinct and "god given" ability called logic in order for me to believe in the things the bible tells me. now that doesn't add up. if something is so powerful as these mortal men who crafted this story claim it is, it would A: all add up, and B: wouldn't contradict since that's not a trait of a fact, and C: would be undenyable.

ignoring facts never sat right with me. but then again, neither did burying my head in the sand.

Crazy Hades 01-24-07 09:13 PM

That had to be the gayest comic I've ever seen, Past Tense.

Disproving God creating us is quite simple.

1.) He is perfect. We are not. You could get into an argument about perfection being unable to create imperfection, but let's go on. Why did he create cancer? How difficult would it have been for him to take cancer out of the world? Why do people get hernias? Why do some babies get messed up in the womb and die? Why is the process of birth so difficult? Why is man able to procreate without problem at a young age, but a woman isn't able to without an increased risk of defects to the baby (perhaps God's way of saying 'fuck a lot of older women when you reach puberty)? If he doesn't want us to lust, why do we lust naturally? Satan? Give me a break.

2.) People believe the chances of life are too difficult, that the chance is far too small, so there must be an intelligent creator. But if you are going to have an intelligent creator, is that not much more difficult than it eventually happened spread over billions of light years loaded with galaxies, which are loaded with stars, which are loaded with planets? Is it not just as difficult that God defies all logic and a perfect being creates itself without any known laws? Now you may say, the origins of the universe are just as insanely illogical as the creation of God, since both came from nothing. But the universe is not perfect as God is supposed to be, and once you deal with such an infinitely complex matter as something from nothing, what we believe is a huge chance (i.e. life beginning) it is fractional to the impossibility presented in the first place.

In Layman's terms, say that the difficulty of God/the universe being created from nothing is 1, and say 1 is a huge number. Then, add in the small fraction of life's potential. Compared to this massive '1', this would be, say, 1/infinity. Probably a smaller number, but be sure that it would take a long time to type up '1/10000 (followed by a long, long time of holding down '0').

3. According to Occam's Razor, and plain logic, there is no point to multiple complex entities beyond necessity. Basically, here is the diagram:

God emerges from nothing ---> God creates the universe ---> shit happens ---> life happens

There is no need to make it more complicated by including another step.

The universe emerges from nothing ---> shit happens ---> life happens

4. Quantum mechanics proposes the no boundary universe --- basically, the universe has always existed. It is immensely complicated, proposed by Stephen Hawkings. So you say, God could always exist. But to build off my other arguments, the universe is not perfect --- God is. The universe cannot create things if it randomly wants to --- God can. So once more we're leaping into stages where our human brains cannot comprehend the figures.

And you want to know, if I am wrong and God exists, I have a good chance of not going to hell?

Because God has created humans with the ability to perform logic. He has led us on the path of evolution, he has basically said 'go this direction'. Sure, you can blame it on Satan, but Satan did not create this Universe and the potential to question God. God is a scientist --- he has created all of these laws that govern each aspect of our existence. So there are three things:

a.) God wants us to think on our own. As I have said, people mature at a young age, and men lose massive amounts of potential children before marriage. Basically, human society has fucked the religious: we cannot marry at a young age, and due to the currency system we are not able to support the family God has given us the ability to create.

b.) Satan did it.

c.) God wants us to be brainwashed, and being brainwashed is only bad by human standards.

You are RIGHT GOD IS PERFECT......but it seems as if you have no faith......Nothing kills the movement of the Spirit in you then the lack of faith.....GOD IS A PERFECT FATHER.....he will not forsake you...you are adopted by him......and it is impossible to please Him without Faith and having Perseverence.........Birth was meant to be painless untill sin came into the picture.....Thats why births for Eve were so painful..because she had sinned.....there was going to be no such thing as PAIN without sin.....its just a punishment for SIN!....God gave us the ability to produce so quick because he wanted us to be tested....just as JOB was tested by his faith...simple and plain...........we dont lust because of Satan....he does have control of the Creation as we speak though.....he just is a seed planter........OUR LUST for flesh is here because of SIN not SATAN...SATAN HATES US AND WANTS TO TEAR US DOWN.........but YOU CHOSE If he takes control of YOUR LIFE

Your right PEOPLE you said it yourself PEOPLES minds are NOT PERFECT and WE DONT HAVE THE SAME KNOWLEDGE OF GOD....

it says in PROVERBS Chapter 3 verse 5-6 it says

5-Trust in the Lord with all of your HEART
and lean not on your own understanding

FOR YOU MUST OPEN THE EYES OF YOUR HEART TO SEE CHRIST

6-In all your ways acknowledge him
and he will make your paths straight

OF course CHRISTIANS DO FALL ASTRAY but GOD PROTECTS HIS CHILDREND AND BLESSES HIS CHILDREN!!!........

agin it also says in Chatper 3 verse 7

7-DONT BE WISE IN YOUR OWN EYES
fear the LORD and SHUN EVIL

its saying DONT BELIEVE WHAT YOUR FLESH WANTS AND WHAT YOUR PRIDE WANT BUT PRAY FOR HIS WILL NOT YOURS

Its the same thing that was with Jesus on the CROSS

HE BELIEVED IN GODS WILL NOT HIS....thats why he died for us..he could've had millions of Angels down in a heartbeat to BRING HIM UP TO HIS THRONE!! but he knew what he had to do

they are corrupt and there ways are vile;there is NO ONE who does good

which is why Christ came and died for us.....TUH DAW!

YET AGAIN YOU LISTED SOMEONES VIEWS...THIS AGAN IS JUST SELFISH PRIDE BECAUSE OF FLESH!! Thats why you must be DEAD TO SIN AND BORN AGAIN THROUGH CHRIST

You think that the birds moutians rivers all the galaxies just POPPED UP....

its kind of like saying "hey look at that house IT WAS JUST THERE!! no one built it" SOMEONE BUILT THIS PLACE.......you just have to stop going by selfish PRIDE

LOL @ GOD IS A SCIENTIST.....MAN Created SCIENCE GOD CREATED MAN.....simple and plain

IT EVEN SAYS IN THE BIBLE AFTER WHAT JESUS DID PEOPLE WILL STILL NOT BELEIVE HERE IN John Chapter 12 Verse 37-47

37-Even after Jesus Had done all these miraculous signs in there presence, they still would not beleive in him.

38-This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet

"Lord, who has beleived our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?"

39-For this reason they could not beleive, because, as Isaiah says elsewhere:

40-"He has blinded their eyes and deadend their hearts, so they can neither see with their eyes, nor understand with their hearts, nor turn-and I would heal them"

41-Isaiah said this is because he saw Jesus' glory and spoke about him

42-Yet at the same time many even among the leaders beleived in him. But because of Pharisees they would not confess theird faith for fear they would be put out of the synagogue;
43-For they loved praise from men more than praise from God.
44-Then Jesus cried out, "when a man beleived in me, he does not beleive in me only, but in the one who sent me.
45-When he looks at me, he sees the one who sent me
46-I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who beleives in me should stay in darkness.
47-As for the person who hears my words but does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save it.
48-There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words: that very word which I spoke will condemn him at the last day
49- For i did not speak of my own accord, but the father who sent me commanded me what to say and how to say it
50-I know that his command leads to ETERNAL LIFE. So what ever I say is just what the FATHER Has told me to say


Basiclly it implies that PEOPLE KNOW THE TRUTH AND DEEP DOWN INSIDE KNOW THE TRUTH AND HAVE ACCEPTED THE TRUTH BUT BECAUSE OF THERE OWN SELFISH DESIRES OF BEING ACCEPTED BY MAN WHO CANT SAVE THERE ETERNAL LIFE THEY WILL FALL IN THERE OWN PRIDE!






PRIDE young ONE PRIDE

gotta give it up and HAVE FAITH

ya... and because theres multiple other religions that feel just as strong about something completely different. so to tell me that i should "believe" in something with out proof would make me dumb and easily influencial and if i was that easily influence i'd have to "believe" in the thousands of other random religions with out proof.
