I am Christian

When you see a ditch and your truck starts leaning at an obscure angle. Do you scream…?

“OH MY NOBODY!!!” :wink:

Well I certainly dont scream oh my god, I’m not some middle aged housewife. I sounded more like Malcolm Tucker. :slight_smile:

I have read that this symbol was used by Christians to identify themselves to another Christian when it was dangerous to be one.

However, I now know that it is in fact the badge of membership of the Institute of Retarded Motorists
and can be seen on the rear of many poorly driven cars.

The ‘fish’ is a pagan symbol to do with the ‘age’ or ‘aeon’ we are living in and is purely astrological.
we are currently in the age of pisces (hence the fish)…we move into the age of aquarius in around 2600…each age lasts around 2000-2500 years.

Still on the morphine Chris? :smiley:

And if a recruiting boss said I’ll pay double for anyone religious and triple for anyone Christian then I’d rather go unemployed…

This^. I stand by what I believe, or don’t believe, in and wouldn’t compromise that for money.

Immigrant:
Sorry. I didn’t wanted a discussion on that

Here’s a little hint for you Fred. If you don’t want a discussion on something then don’t post it on a forum, which by definition is a place for discussing things…

So you also do not mind if your body will be thrown to landfill or disposed like a deth chicken that Use by date has expired :question: :unamused:

For those that think religion is the worst thing inflicted upon the human race…
I’ll put my philosophical hat on;

Credit allows people to be underpaid.
Credit allows people to act outside of the community spirit.
Credit allows the rich to rob the poor.
Credit is a love of money and is it’s own root of all evil.
Peddling credit is like peddling drugs. We see those doing the peddling get filthy rich and we think that partaking of their fare will make us like them. If we’re not members of the dodgy handshake club, and are uncut to boot, It makes us victims instead.
Taking out credit is like being a junkie. You just couldn’t go without, You had to do what everyone else was doing, no one believes in austerity and living within one’s means.
Attacking those in the credit industry invites censure, as it is automatically assumed that you must be an anti-semite, socialist, or anti-establishment.

If you now substitute “Religion” for the word “Credit” above, then the exact opposite applies right down the chain…

Religion insists that people are paid a fair wage, and are never ripped off. Hard work is rewarded. No exploitation.
Religion IS the community spirit.
Religion allows the poor to rob the rich, although unbelievers on the outside will see “socialism” where religion is at large instead.
Demonstrating religion is like denying drugs. We avoid those that are filthy rich, and have no intention of partaking of their fare, thus we will not be victims to it.
Taking part in organised religion without being religious is like being a junkie. How many atheists are brave enough to never go to a wedding, never take Christmas off, or asked to be buried in a landfill site, because a corpse is in their mind a “switched off piece of rubbish like a discarded computer”?

Most people who “say” they are atheist are in fact agnostic. They’re afraid people will extract the urine if they’re seen to be in any way different to others in their peer group.
If a recruiting boss said “I’m paying Double to anyone religious in my workforce, and triple for Christians” then my guess is the local church will be packed the following week with wannabes tendering their resumes!

Attacking the religious tends to make one look like an atheist rather than a member of another religion, which tends to be the real cause of friction. Defending religion tends to make one look like an evangelist or member of an organised religion which makes one look like some nutter like David Ike. Two wrongs don’t make a right. Always look at the relative rather than the stereotype.

Wishing death upon someone aged 20 is a great thing if you are the rest of the world and we’re talking about Adolf Hitler.
The blindly religious would argue that wishing death upon someone is wrong, even if it saves a million lives. The sensible religious knows better. The blindly atheistic would argue that religion is to blame for all the worlds ills, but since they’re on the outside, and are not even looking in, they might as well be playing blind man’s buff on the M6!
History tends to remember anti-semites as the evil ones. A Christian and an Atheist Historian might both point out that Christ was both born a semite and put to death by their will - for being anti-establishment!

People’s responses to Immigrant’s post suggest I’m not far wrong here…

Most of Christians and Catholics lost their balls so they will not defend their belives - just look at this thread and country that is becoming more Islamic and all of them can only say bloody Immigrants but have no balls like them to fight for their right. They are lost. Their God is money.

It doesn’t matter what they do with your body. You’re dead! I’m giving mine to medical science.
Save the family from a huge funeral bill. Have a ■■■■ up instead. I won’t give a ■■■■■■■■.

I quite like the idea of a death chicken.

You know MisterStrood religion doesn’t have a monopoly on burials. It’s perfectly possible to be buried without the need for a church. People can be buried in different places for different reasons. I for one want to be buried in a green burial ground. Yes I’m dead and that’s that but it’s still nice for friends and family to have a nice place to grieve. How about they chuck you in landfill like a ‘death chicken’ because surely your body doesn’t mean anything either, you’ll be up in heaven won’t you?

You’ve a very simplistic view on things, not everything we do is because of religion.

MisterStrood:
just look at this thread and country that is becoming more Islamic

How do you work that one out? Most of the posts are from atheists. You do know what that means don’t you? It means we think all religions are equally nuts. Islam and Christianity are just as crazy as each other.

And while we’re at it my god isn’t money. My god is the world and the universe. Open a science book, there are more amazing and incredible things in there than any religious book of fairy stories and so called ‘miracles’. Science performs thousands of miracles each and every day.

Switch said and I quote… ‘People can be buried for different reasons’

Struggled with this one,

I can only think of one reason… You are dead :slight_smile:

I do apologise for your confusion, I missed out in different places. So in different places for different reasons.

You know I never said that I do things because of the religion I have to say I was grown up by Catholic family and I am not beliving in those ‘‘books’’. In life I was interested in many philosophies and I created my own God which I call LIFE. But I would not call myself atheist either. As for burial I would like to be burried and thrown over Vineyards in Bordeaux to give a bit of taste in to that liquid they create there :wink:

What I mean by that is that Europe was mainly created in history by people who belived in any form of religion that was mainly Catholic, Christian and Orthodox. Nowadays they belive in nothing apart from the salary in bank account which IMHO caused all that mess we have to deal with now. Whenever you like it or not above is true.

You understood only part of it and quoted part of it. But true I did not say clear what I mean. The reason that we have mess in which we live is because we agreed for all to be equal. Multiculturalism is bad IMO and it was allowed because of as I call it lack of cultural preservation. Islamist are strong belivers and one day you will know what I mean.
