I mean, are you christian because you thought about it or are you Christian because you grew up in a household, country, etc that basically raised you to be Christian? I'll wait

It's thought processes like this filled with such ignorance that doesn't warrant any serious replies. Why are you assuming all of this nonsense?

A lot of "Christians" don't even know about their man-god "jesus", the cross etc etc.. The bible =/= Christianity.. Only the "new" testament does. With that being said, most christians in fact don't think for themselves. Just go to church on sunday and listen to someone kick game to them so they can keep coming back.

Wouldn't you most likely become a Muslim? Doesn't sound like much of a choice to me

Wouldn't you most likely become a Muslim? Doesn't sound like much of a choice to meIve tried Islam, i dont pray, thats a totally sound deduction though but it doesnt really prove i dont think for myself, it would be a stronger argument that i have an affinity for the Nation of Islam, im a black male who is tired of being looked down on by most whites/asians/even other blacks, Christianity fits my lifestyle not to mention ive had a personal experience which i let dictate my allegiance to it. . . . . . if you want though you can say i dont think for myself

Being Stumped 101. Class is in session. "Since humanity was created"Oh...so 4.6+ billion years, or 10,000? Lucifer wanted to be god?Thats funny. God created something and couldn't even control it.So much for being "god"...it can't even fend off posers. How Omnipotent. I love how you say this all with such conviction. As if you KNOW this is the case. But of course you do. Its in the bible!ROUND AND ROUND WE GO!
Lucifer actually allowed humans to gain knowledge by eating the fruit (if you believe the "snake" was the devil/lucifer/demon whatever)God killed more people than Satan.The people satan killed in the bible was actually under the advice/permission of God anyways.
God creates lucifer...knowing everything about it, knows what its thinking and what it will do, and knowing it has more power than it...and can't control it?God seems impotent (not enough for Mary though...Hi-Oh!), to say the least.
How do you know that "god" is "god" and lucifer is "lucifer" ? If you claim the devil is good at deception, how would you REALLY know? And do you claim to be able to tell the difference?What do you use to draw that difference?
Or why God keeps messing up the very thing it creates ...instead of fixing what it created, it just floods them out? How "effective" It can't even get the story right...first jews, then christians, then muslims. Dude created the first humans knowing they would do what he knew they would do and still punished them.God is an MASSIVE punk.
I don't have the time nor patience to educate you privately on biology 101 and critical thinking. Go take classes at a community college or Khan academy. There are private tutors on craigslist.I stopped replying because your answer was "well where did awl dis stuff come from then?" Bruh. I'm not wasting my time on educating you on stuff a 10th grader who paid attention can answer. THe funny part is that you were clearly asking all those questions about the origins and biology because you have doubts deep down and you want me to push you over the edge. There is no way you could be that inquisitive and still be honestly religious.Just be honest. You're probably more scared of hell or being punished for thought crime than you are because you're pious.

I would have to say that God knew we would come down this path if we didn't listen about the tree's fruit but he gave us a choice. The choice that we all have now. Follow or not.s and wanting YOUR help? Putty Please!I paid attention in class and from what I learned there and what you retold me. It doesn't explain life for me.erisly. Everything we use and see had a creator but we're because of accident? We're too damn complex for that.c

And you're ok with this?The best way to control people is to keep knowledge from them, it works for tyrants and dictators and it works for God!!!
