I came across your site through Answers in Genesis. I have a couple of comments to make.Anyone can make up a religion these days. What you propose to people is just silly. Lets be real here.
What is your authority to say how things started? I ask because we must go back to some authority in which we can say such things. Also, how can you then get to Heaven? How are we saved? Why are we in the mess, that we are?
Jesus Christ died for us, so that we could have life. Can you say the same thing about your “God”?
2Pe 2:1
But false prophets arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. 1 These false teachers 2 will 3 infiltrate your midst 4 with destructive heresies, 5 even to the point of 6 denying the Master who bought them. As a result, they will bring 7 swift destruction on themselves.2Pe 2:2
And many will follow their debauched lifestyles. 1 Because of these false teachers, 2 the way of truth will be slandered. 32Pe 2:19
Although these false teachers promise 1 such people 2 freedom, they themselves are enslaved to 3 immorality. 4 For whatever a person succumbs to, to that he is enslaved. 57:13 “Enter through the narrow gate, because the gate is wide and the way is spacious that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 7:14 But the gate is narrow and the way is difficult that leads to life, and there are few who find it.

An elaborate spoof on Intelligent Design, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is neither too elaborate nor too spoofy to succeed in nailing the fallacies of ID. It's even wackier than Jonathan Swift's suggestion that the Irish eat their children as a way to keep them from being a burden, and it may offend just as many people, but Henderson, described elsewhere as a 25-year-old "out-of-work physics major," puts satire to the same serious use that Swift did. Oh, yes, it is very funny. -- Scientific American
Hmmm… let me quote something…
Shylock:
I am a Jew. Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands,
organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions; fed with the same
food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases,
heal’d by the same means, warm’d and cool’d by the same winter
and summer, as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not bleed? If
you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die?
And if you wrong us, do we not revenge? If we are like you in the
rest, we will resemble you in that.
The Merchant Of Venice Act 3, scene 1, 58–68
hmm … another quote that may not be factual (Shylock did not really exsist and say just this) but can be used as a guideline for moral choices….. which is what many intellectual people see that Bible as. It is a source of some the greatest wisdoms of the human race. Good moral stories and fables. But it was written by man - therefore it is not completely perfect or totally factual. People have to realize that quoting the Bible does no infer an imperative for non-religious people. It is just the same as me quoting any other book to me. It may be based in fact but there is no other evidence that can solely prove that it is the exact written word of the Christian god.
Christian Scallywag!
Funny how they can find a million and one ways to twist up the logic in the one book they’ve actually read. What Christians don’t understand is that the noodly appendage is already punishing them by making them feel the constant need to start circular arguments (i.e. “The Bible is the true Word” how do I know this? “The Bible tells me”). Salvation may only come by donning the eyepatch of true sight and trading the two-dimensional circle of Christianity for the two meat-filled balls of the FSM. Science teaches that two mighty balls will always bring forth the power to fill the emptiness of the hollow circle! Yaaaar! Thar be the truth!

Jesu always over cooked and never rinsed. His sauce sucked too.

soo, if its supposed to be swift, why are we not dead?
You can get to heaven by dying.
Our religion doesn’t save you because we’re never in danger in the first place.
We are in the mess that we are because his noodliness wishes it to be and if he wishes it to be then it shall eventually benefit us.
You can’t come here and expect to be taken seriously when you’re using quotes from a book that is equally probable when viewed next to ours. It’s a case of “This is wrong, I am right, don’t ask me why.”
whats up with all the numbers in this email? 1 is it like a secret math lesson? 2 because I can already count to seven. 3 they aren’t even clearly line number. 4 at first I thought 5 they 6 respected 9 the end of each sentence 10 14 62 hike! but they don’t. do you talk to people this way, or is it like a JC hipster thing to write like that?
Dieing for some pasta!
I too believe in some form of devine presence, call it God/Allah/FSM/og Odin. I consider myself a believer, but not religious.
That aside, I find it interesting you choose to quote the following.

2Pe 2:1
1 These false teachers … they will bring 7 swift destruction on themselves. [/Quote]
Keyword: Swift.
Once 6-7 years ago, I began trying to convince people about my own made up religion, based on all religions being valid. I am still waiting for that swift destruction.
I gave up on the religion later as I came to the conclusion that; no man (limited and flawed as we are) are able to understand our “creators” intentions, so any religion conveyed through man, be that Moses, Jesus, the Pope or Bobby Henderson, must be flawed. The only “truth” we can really fully adhere to is what science can prove. That is the only truth we can really teach. Anything else, should be up to individual to decide for him/herself.

How can you insult us in the slightest when you can’t even see that a religion linking pirates with global warming in it’s founding letter is satire? You are the proof that most christians are ignorant and above all stupid.
It always tickles me when people throw Jesus at me like that. I usually duck, but as I have gotten older, I am stepping up to the plate and swinging a bat at those throws.
I am Jewish… and while I still practice, I also incorporate the teachings of Buddha into my life because they make so much sense. But here is the story that amuses me most.
A person I know once asked me if I was Jewish… I said yes. He is a Deacon, so he asked me when I was going to let Christ into my heart so that I could be “accepted into God’s kingdom when I die.” I advised him… No time soon, or ever.
He then went on to let me know that just because I was one of “God’s Chosen ones” I would not get into heaven until I accepted Christ as “My lord and Savior.”
I asked: “Well… Then I would no longer be a Jew, and thus I would no longer be one of the Chosen.”
He said…”The only real Jews, are Christians!”
I asked “Then what were Jews before Christ and Christiandom?”
The conversation stopped there, and I could hear him mumbling the rest of the day.
Look up the word ‘tautology’ in the dictionary. It will say: see ‘tautology’….
What is your authority on saying how things were started?
…how can you say our “gods” not real? all you have 2 go on is a bible. well guess what? we have one to.
peace love and pirates

@Al Free Do re: whats up with all the numbers in this email?
Al, The numbers are the verses of the chapter from the Bible. His first citation, for example, is from Second book of Peter, Chapter 2, Versus 1 - 7.
What he has written as “2Pe 2:1″ is more correctly written as “2Pe 2:1-7″
Why does an omniscient, all powerfull being need to write with all those annoying numbers in the middle of his/her/its sentences???
Why would you quote the bible on a Website about a diffrent religion. Thats like someone quoteing the Koran on a website about Christianity
Think before you act. You think because you are able to list parts of a book that you are going to make us see the “error in our ways” and convert to Christianity. Sorry but no sale here
What right do you have to decide what is right about creation
I always find it hilarious how some people use THEIR religions as proof that your religion is wrong. ROFL!!
Jesus talked to me last night.I am now a prophet.He has told me the truth:to go in heaven , you MUST eat spaghetti all day , and include meat ballz with it for protein, indispensible for sound reasoning.Now I have told you the truth ,I hope your soul may one day rest once you have realised the flying spaghetti monster is the only healthy true god.May god be in your plate, everywhere you eat.Amen. BAI NOOBZ
What about Mac and Cheese?
“As a result, they will bring 7 swift destruction on themselves.”
I see no swift destruction here… Your ‘God’ must be a ruse also
