**** Religion?

**DaCougarMech** · 04-03-2006, 12:03 PM

i'm sorry but that question is impossible to answer. for all we know, our souls, if you believe in that stuff, goes on to an universe where everyone is a talking bottle of rum. every theory about life after death is equally plausible to me because there is no concrete proof for any

First of all, I'd like to ask if you made this thread beacuase of what you recently got off ban for?

Second of all, I would like to apoligize for the rash words we shared in that particular thread. You are a good person. Just blunt and/or ignorant.

I really have nothing to add. I just had to ask.

**Tool** · 04-03-2006, 12:33 PM

No, I saw Platinum talking about it in the gay marriage thread or something and I thought that it'd be interesting to get everyone's opinion on it.

@Metalhead: Logic. If you're basing what happens in life after death on a book full of contradictions in itself you might as well kick yourself in the ass.

And I don't need you to tell me that I'm a good person. I try to be the best person I can at all times, although it may not seem that way. And it's not because some stupid book or some ****ing monk or some other religious figure told me to. I do it because it makes me feel like I'm a better person, even if when I do try and help people it wastes my time or something bad ends up happening to me. Something earlier today was the perfect example of it.

contradictions? like what? i think i have seen you say this several times but i have never ctully seen you explain what contridictions or give ny examples

**Tool** · 04-03-2006, 01:24 PM

You've never seen ME talk about contradictions in the bible before. You're thinking of someone else. However, I don't care enough to go look them up when I know as soon as Platinum reads this he'll post some for me.

**Siris** · 04-03-2006, 01:39 PM

Im guessing ignorant

**Bloodangel26** · 04-03-2006, 02:45 PM

i personally would have chosen pompous, but thats just me, and i am too tired to start a flame war

**Bartender** · 04-03-2006, 03:05 PM

If you want contradictions on the christian religeon, google flying speghetti monster.

**Siris** · 04-03-2006, 03:08 PM

maybe you misread but we are not talking about the christian religion we are talking about the bible

Shut up and die, go to hell because thats where you belong. Just because you listen to metal doesn't mean you have to be satanic. Go listen to some black metal and let the jocks kick your ass fool. Please just shut up.

Oh and I'm hella

this isn't a closed thread yet.

Who the **** are you? You don't know shit about Tool and you're trying to bash him with points that aren't even valid. Basically every attempt at an insult is just a flat-out failure. I suggest you go back to Small Talk, you're just ruining yourself here.

Anyway, I believe religion was primarily used as a method of explaining something the earlier civilizations didn't understand. I.E. the various regions believing the sun was pulled across the sky by a god in a chariot or whatever.

Then it just became a method of control later on. Going to hell and burning in a lake of lava after you die if you do anything sinful is pretty convincing.

**Siris** · 04-03-2006, 03:37 PM

thats something i dont understand... most ppl in christianity (mostly catholism) say that when you die and if you go to hell you'll burn forever....but let me ask you something...why would a all powerful and all merciful god condemn you forever...he doesnt. if you read the bible it says that you burn for a time then you become nothingness. he only grants immortality to ppl how go to heaven.

i cant remember exactly but i want to say you burn for 7 years...(i could be rwrong about it being 7 years but impretty sure)

Additional Comment:
now that i actually think about it i see that it is said forever because they higher ups try to control you and since forever sounds a lot more frightening then a few years..

**Mathalamus** · 04-03-2006, 04:06 PM

hmm if ur right siris my dad is entering the 3rd year of burning in hell

and the gods will not let him go to heaven

if i am right then ur dad is in his grave and not in hell or heaven...when you die you stay dead till jesus comes for every1..it says this in the bible and yet many religions say that ur ancesters look down from heaven..this is not true.. every1 stays dead till he comes and when he comes he'll take thos that are dead and those that are still alive.

**Mathalamus** · 04-03-2006, 04:29 PM

you know siris that (no offence) you make no sense ish

**SkyMonster** · 04-03-2006, 04:34 PM

thank god someone made this thread... i would have but i didnt know how to make a poll (someone please pm me on how to do it)

I hate religion of all sorts... it just a way to convert people into some sort of conformity...

heres something for all of you christians / what ever you are... if your god made the world / universe who made your god...

i love how the family guy movie makes jesus look like a jack*$$ (cause he is) "turns out jesus wasnt all he was cracked up to be" i agree with all the miricle things in family guy.

anyway someone make a stupid point aboput christianty so i can rip them about it...

note: im christain but i dont believe give a sh!t about it

there are a few problems wth religion

-people just take it too ****ing seriously (ie. Muslims, Christiains (south park))
-people keep ****ing trying to convert you (i mean seriously **** OFF)
-People break the rules of the religion all the time (ie. steal, swear)

**Siris** · 04-03-2006, 04:46 PM

mathaddsgdfdsf-a: what im saying is when you die u cease to exist till jesus comes for every1. its like your spirit is on pause.

skymonster.... i hardly no where to begin insulting you... you seem to insult urself just fine. you go bashing on christians then call yourself one? anyways with an atitude like who made your god..well there hs to be a start because if some1 made god then who made that some1 and who made b4 that etc. well like i said there has to be a start.

and as you 'ripping' on some1 dude i dont think u can make fun of any1 because most ppl i have seen hate you and you're a complete moran...but enough of this.. it gets boring flaming a moran. (my origanal thought was to call you an inferior but considering this is a religion thread and im trying to mke a point, it would only hurt me)
