During the medieval English and Spanish inquisition, they didn't want any other religion to "compete" with them, so they simply began to execute Pagans and anyother people not of their religion. They even executed PRODESTANT Christians because they thought they were heretics.
Either way the catholics/christians are Assholes who read from a book of lies and treat it a truth (brainwashing)(sorry to all catholics)(the people are not assholes but their religion is)
What? You are calling the bible a book of lies? Now, that I will take as an insult, in any case, it is more like a half true book ok? I read the bible, and i believe is one of the greatest book I ever read.
^_^and back to the original topic...
Catholics and most people even those who are not catholics ( I am catholic) are closed minded, and see things as one path only, one way only and blah blah. Now, the church made a huge mistake in the dark ages, but since them it has tried to make some improvements and are more liberal than what they were before. For real, they are more liberals, but most people are gonna be closed minded, and many people will fear the unknown and most of the time will try to destroy it...as a matter of facts I will be the first one destroying stuff..
ok i dont know how many of u guys r still reading this but ur a bit...off.
Christianity has an innate complex. believers therein are obligated to be humble. yet at the same time, they are obligated to convert others. they are obligated to use the fear of death and Hell as a way to save people from it. yet, they always come off as being self-important, rude, and thinking all else is wrong.
BUT wut people on here keep missing is that Christians respected other religions very much.
everyone on this sight always goes back to "torturing other religions."
im sure u all are familiar with the term "heresy." it means a faith that conflicts major, undoubtable points in Christianity. such as Christs divinity.
well, that is wut the muslims doubted, and they shouted it on high.
the thing that people miss is that the church didnt believe it to be a new religion. they believed it a be a mass blaspheme.
these muslims were calling the Savior not devine and spreading that word. it was no religion, it was heresy.
the Bible says to kill the heretic. not to kill other religions. i hope that helps yall to understand...
^_^ what? The bible says Thou Shall NOT KILL
or something like that.... O_O and I am christian, I am humble yet I am the center of the universe *_*
In any case, I am christian (catholic to be more exact) but I do not follow a church (except that I was baptise against my will in church hahahaha I do not mind it..though I get benefits from it)
If you really think about it, religion is man's creation. If we didn't exist God wouldn't. Animals wouldn't worship or give thanks to any one. Yes the bible is full of contradictions and yes there are radicals BUT if you think about it, they can be the nicest people around. HOWEVER, it is REALLY ANNOYING when they say that witchcraft is the Devil's work and try to convert you. Think about all the good things that these ppl have done. Yes, I am contradicting myself here but come on, can't we all get along?
^_^ not at all...each individual follows their own path being satanic/pegan/catholic/buddhist/ and what not...you cannot judge one for all....and all for one (though people still do it....)
if u wer trying to say something off of ur own beliefs, thats fine and i cant touch that.
but if u were commenting on my religion, the the first thing u said...that God wouldnt exist if we didnt? well, from a Christian viewpoint, thats bull...
u c, God exists. period. he was not created. hes just there. but, God was unsatisfied and bored. so, he creates heaven and earth, and angels and us. then some angels try to usurp his throne and he casts them down and then theyre demons. thats the story.
well, u said God would be if we werent. no, dats wrong from a Christian viewpoint. if we didnt exist, God would thus....be bored. and thats about it. he would probably create another way to entertain himself. we were meant to praise God. because he wanted to be praised. he wants us. we NEED him. not the other way around....
what ever, if you dont like our beliefs terra the just freakin leave.....its that simple,
and for all christians....well....people that call them selves christains......and still do magic, need to read the bible themselves, it says in revealations that those that attempt or even think of trying magick, that they will be damn to hell....now although im not christian i have read the bible cover to lieing cover.
^_^ Well...well... I am going to hell.....I always had a feeling...
O_O
In any case, Terra you just made your GOD look like....well not good... (Yes, I said your God...because I never ever have seen GOD as such picture you just made....)
