Hello my name is Christian which means servant of the Christ. The LORD says that in the end, many false teachers will rise, darwin, muhammed and even your own bobby. I will not be swayed because i have met God. God warns that you cannot explain spiritual things to mortals because they don’t understand them. When you accept God, you are entered by the Holy Spirit of God Himself. That is why i cannot ever be convinced of your fruitless lies. I have personally seen the great power God commands. I will continue to log onto this site for a long time now. For if even one soul be saved while i am here, well in good deeds, none is greater. The LORD is my shield. I will never be convinced by words because words are not as powerful as actions. God has granted me great faith and understanding and as long as the earth endures i will fear no evil for God is with me. You will call me stupid and you will mock me, but unless you become as powerful as Holy Yahweh overnight, and then share a portion of that power with me so that i may never die, i will not be fooled. For the whole world will HATE you because of me-Jesus to His followers- I beg thee to end this, then you will see and and the Truth will shine like 1000 suns. May the Lord Jesus rule over God’s people forever Amen.
-Christian

Stop taking the green pills in the morning and swallow them with a nice glass of warm milk before you go to bed. You will begin to feel better in 8 – 10 days. Also, my friend’s uncle was a bit like you (only he thought he was Napoleon) and he was cured just by changing his socks twice daily. Give it a try, after all it can’t make you much worse than you are now.

Hi Christian the christian,
You are easily the scariest person I have encountered on this web-site.
I hope you get to meet your god in ‘heaven’ sooner rather than later before you take arms and send other ’sinners’ to him. I don’t want to see your god’s justice metered out on YouTube.
You say “God has granted me great faith and understanding” yet you write us off just because we don’t believe your crack-pot ideas.
You are a complete and total nutter.
May thee receive the counsel of thy holy psychiatrist and piss off.

Once more unto the contradictions, dear friends. Christian, in your posting you say that “I will never be convinced by words because words are not as powerful as actions”, and yet you blindly follow the Bible made up of, yes you guessed it, words. I wonder how many ‘actions’ you have witnessed? i.e. along the lines of resurrecting the dead, walking on water etc?

Has anyone checked to see when this was actually sent by Christian? Judging by the archaic belief system expressed and use of the word ‘thee’ it may have been sent prior to the Enlightenment and the Age of Reason, which would date it as no later than the early eighteenth century.
I suspect that it may have been sent later as there was little or no access to the Internet in those days and email was in its infancy. If so, then Christian has clearly missed out on the last 300-odd years of western philosophical thought.
Christian if you’re reading this, I suggest you start catching up with the rest of us and reading René Descartes would probably be a good place to start. He believed in a god just like you do, so you shouldn’t feel too out of your depth with him.

Hello my name is Lucifer which means up yours moronic Christian.
@ Bruno The Pig. Let me explain the Trinity to you. It is simple.
Christ, according to the faith, is the second person in the Trinity, the Father being the first and the Holy Ghost the third. Each of these persons is God. Christ is his own father and his own son. The Holy Ghost is neither father nor son, but both. The son was begotten by the father, but existed before he was begotten just the same before as after. . . .
So, it is declared that the Father is God, and the Son God, and the Holy Ghost God, and that these three Gods make one God.
According to the celestial multiplication table, once one is three, and three times one is one, and according to heavenly subtraction, if we take two from three, three are left. The addition is equally peculiar, if we add two to one, we have but one. . . .
@ Bruno The Pig, do you get it now?
Nothing ever was, nothing ever can be more perfectly idiotic and absurd than the dogma of the Trinity.

That’s funny Christian, because I also met God, and he said “LOL, can you believe what a tool Christian is? He totally bought that entire load of shit! What a stupid noob!”
I swear that’s what he told me. I swear it on my immortal soul.
But seriously, here are some fun lines for everyone:
“Question with boldness even the existence of God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear.”
~Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826)
“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?”
~Epicurus (341–270 B.C.E.)
“One of the proofs of the immortality of the soul is that myriads have believed in it. They have also believed the world was flat.”

You know, it’s a mighty fine coincidence that you were named Christian, because there are not too many other religions that are tailor-made to a person’s name. Cat Stevens had that problem when he converted to Islam, just not enough personal pizz-azz. Just think if your parents had the foresight to name you something like, oh I don’t know… John, we wouldn’t be mocking your deluded reality. Or maybe you would be on here condeming us because pizza is better than spaghetti (due to your messianic namesake).
And Christian, since you seem to be on such personal terms with the sky-wizard himself, I am in need of an entertainer for a friend’s birthday. Does he do personal parties? Are his rates competitive? Is there a special rate for the “water to wine” trick?
And if in fact you do shine with the power of a 1000 suns, why can’t I see you from my house? Just curious.

HEY EVERYONE for once the guy who writes the hate mail is back and it’s better than ever!!! where to begin…
“I serve God.”
Yup your slavery to God came across in your first thrilling chapter.
“I do no miracles”
We never suggested you do miracles, in fact the point was that you and your “God” don’t do miracles – when we say stuff just assume we’re mocking you. It’s simpler that way.
“I will die. I will live after i die.”
Who are you, Zombie Jesus?
“I have not literally met God.”
Then why did you say you met him before? Seems like you’re a little confused. Was it just a phone conversation or you heard stories from a friend and they were so convincing you forgot you hadn’t actually met him. That must be it.
“I believe the earth is 6000 years old(approx)”
Good thing you kept the approx in there otherwise how could you account for the 4539994000 year (approx) difference in your all knowing estimate compared to actual evidence.
“I do not believe in evolution”
If anything I have the biggest problem with this sentence – evolution isn’t about “belief”. Science is not about belief. Science is about observation. If anything this is the key difference between cults – I mean religions and science. Anything considered science can be seen, heard, felt, smelt, tasted (or experience by any other extra senses) by anyone. The anecdotal evidence of religion cannot.
“Everything i have said is true.”
Truth is subjective. You BELIEVE it to be true but that doesn’t make it so. Like a 60-year old man in a mental hospital may BELIEVE he is Marilyn Monroe, in his mind this is the truth but it does not make it so.
“What say you, you who mock The Most High”
Talking like that does not score you any points. I think I’ve said my bit.

Christian, my friend, all I can say to you is thanks, but really, no thanks. Yes, you have found your God. Good for you! Congratulations! In all seriousness, good for you. You have your God, I’ve got my Flying Spaghetti Monster. We should be all well and good, with our separate, individual beliefs. But we aren’t. Because you can’t tolerate an idea that isn’t yours. You know, maybe you should try understanding us before you tell us that we’re all irrevocably screwed. Look at your religion, and look at the atrocities it has commited in the name of your god. If we take your whole “do unto others” thing, well, shouldn’t we all be murdering Christians in the name of our god, his great and mighty noodliness? Because I’m pretty sure that you guys have been killing, raping, murdering, and stealing, all in the name of your God, since about the time that your church started. If you ask me, your version of God, and the original idea of God, well, they’re two rather different things. We, as Pastafarians, emmisaries of His Noodly Goodness, have taken a step away from the church. I used to be Catholic, I was raised Catholic, and for a long time, I believed in your God. I’m assuming that you are a hardcore Christian at this point, so please, feel free to take pot shots at the Catholic church. I know you people don’t like them. But I must say, at this point, that this is precisely the reason I left the church of christ, and came to the church of awesomely delicious spaghetti. Dogma, my friend, is the reason that this world is so screwed up. Dogma, my friend, is the reason why people are killed in the name of God. Dogma, dearest Christian, is the reason why you cannot leave this site. You feel it is your business to enforce your ideals on others, to say “I am right, you are wrong,” and condemn us to an imaginary place called hell when we disdain to follow your lead. You refuse to leave this place, not because it is your duty, but because you are afraid to accept that maybe we don’t think the way you do. You have become convinced that your world view is the only correct one, that it is the only possible one in the entire spectrum of belief. So let me say to you. Get out of our faces. Our choice to disbelieve in your allpowerful God is not your choice: it is our own. Get out of our faces, and take your belief for your own ends. We don’t want your faith, we don’t need your faith. We have our own, and you know, if your god is really such an asshole that he’s going to send us all to your Hell, just because we don’t accept Jesus Christ as our “Lord and savior”, well, maybe he doesn’t deserve our worship. At all. Period. I’m perfectly open to a discussion that isn’t filled with dogmatic prejudice. Unfortunately, that’s what you’re spouting. Prove to me that your god exists without citing the bible, without citing some spiritual personal story, PROVE to me that your god exists, that he cares about me, and that he feels remorse for the millions of deaths that he’s caused, and maybe I’ll listen to you.

And your god of the old testament was more cruel than your supposed Satan. A schizophrenia sufferer if ever there was one.
The truth is your old testament was written to scare people into doing as they were told. This worked up to a point. Then some pr genius worked out you snare a lot more with the love and forgiveness approach so they invented Jesus and wrote the new testament. The problem is the gods from the old and new testaments are not compatible.

Well, Christian, my name means “man of red clay” in Hebrew. I am named after the mythical father of humanity, who according to your belief was sculpted of such clay by the hand of God and then brought to life with a soul. I am not mocking you, and I am not an atheist. So now, I would like you to read what I have to say with an open mind.
You may have seen the film “The Matrix,” in which a young man named Neo discovers that what he thought was his real life and world was in fact a computer-generated simulation fed into his brain: an advanced form of virtual reality. Let’s suppose that like Neo in the movie you start to suspect that what you have always believed to be real is in fact a gigantic illusion, systematically maintained by some superhuman agency. You find others who share your suspicion–many others, with training in physics, astronomy, chemistry, genetics, paleontology, and so forth–and you set about trying to discover the limits of the simulation. Your belief spreads, and there seem to be no Men in Black or sinister Agents who try to suppress it.
Soon there are countless thousands of you, all trying as hard as you can to test those limits by coming up with scientific-type explanations for apparent facts within what you still suspect is a simulation. These explanations become more and more refined and deep. They tell you, over and over again, that the universe you inhabit is billions of years old, that life began on earth about 3/4 of the way through of the apparent age of the universe and has gone through enormous changes. This biological evidence starts with things like morphology and population distribution and then, as chemistry advances, becomes genetic as well. Meanwhile the cosmologists are finding more evidence about the vast size of the (virtual) universe and that it’s tied together at scales hundreds of millions of times smaller than an atom.
What’s more, the research that’s being done in these fields yields technologies that you use every day — computers, cell phones, antibiotics, vaccines, genetically engineered foods, and so on. The knowledge base on which these technologies are built is the very same that underlies these theories about the development of life and the age and size of the universe.
In short, for decade after decade, you and your fellow researchers probe the depths of the supposedly virtual reality, looking for the point at which the illusion stops and the handiwork of the external creator and maintainer of this immense charade finally becomes manifest. But you never reach such a point. On the contrary, more and more and more evidence from observation after observation, experiment after experiment, seems to confirm that this virtual reality is so detailed, so fine in its construction, that its apparent age and size and biological history seems… well, real. You are faced with a stark choice. Either this creator has deliberately and skillfully misled you so completely, fabricating evidence down to the level of elementary particles and up to the scale of entire structures of galaxies, that every test you make confirms (or usefully improves) the theories about it you are apparently intended to have; or the universe is in fact *real* and so are the theories you have formed about it that allow you to have a modern technological existence.
That, Christian, is your choice. You claim to have “studied evolution” — but I am skeptical of your claim. Because if you had studied it at any depth, you would know that the fundamental theory of evolution is supported not just by the evidence Darwin used over a century and a half ago but by geology, astronomy, cosmology, particle physics, inorganic and organic chemistry, genetics, proteomics, climatology, crystallography, and so on. We understand it better than we currently understand gravitation, and it is just as much a fact. I repeat: you are faced with the choice of denying the basis on which your own day to day existence rests (including the computer you used to access this site and the electronic networks your computer used to access it) or else calmly facing that reality and understanding that God (assuming God exists) is far, far greater than your little tribal myth imagines God to be, permeating a far greater and more ancient Creation that is developing continually and that is grand, complex, beautiful, and terrible than the Hebrews or the church fathers could have imagined.
Stop hiding behind your flimsy paper certitudes, Christian. Yours is the path of fear and willed blindness. But our survival as a species — and the survival of this beautiful planet on whose nurturing breast we evolved — depends on our facing and mastering, as responsible adults, the powers we have developed from our understanding of nature. “God only acts, and is, in existing deeds or men.” So said my teacher, William Blake. I recommend reading that great Christian poet and artist. He may be able to speak to you as others here cannot.

Seriously, if I WAS as powerful as God, why should I share my power with somebody just because he says he won’t follow me if I don’t? That’s sort of coercion, and if I were God I would find followers who proved themselves DESERVING of eternal life rather than just demanding.
“God helps those who helps themselves”
Also, re comment 126, you say we are foolish to think you were being literal. However, don’t you think that it’s logical to say that since you are taking perfectly simple metaphors and claiming them as fact, your own perfectly simple metaphors may also be taken as fact? Makes sense to me.
And I’d say that in the same comment, you need quotation marks. Because God is not King David of Israel.

@ Christian (comment 126)
‘Do you think that since an Egyptian is called a son of the nile, the nile spat him up?’
Well, considering how much life in Egypt revolves around the Nile, yes. Without the Nile, nobody would live in Egypt, so he wouldn’t be born, so in a certain sense, he would be born from the Nile.
But what you’re implying is that no metaphors should be taken literally. Well, the Bible is essentially an anthology of fables and metaphors, as demonstrated by its many glaring continuity errors and by the way it has been interpreted as such Jews, as well as many prominent Christians and Muslims, and clearly you take /that/ literally.
Also, capital letter on Nile, okay? Proper noun. Same with Mohammed, Darwin, and Bobby in the original post.
‘I have read the entire Bible’
So have I. What do you want, a medal?
I’ve read the Bible, the Bahravaghita (sp?), and sections of the Qu’ran. I went to a Christian school, I’ve been thoroughly indoctrinated, and I’ve come to the independant conclusion that God is a fallacy. When that’s disproved, maybe I’ll turn religious. Guilty until proven innocent seems a fairly sensible stand on religion.
‘I do not believe in evolution. I have studied evolution.’
Let’s play ’spot the implied contradiction’!
There’s proof for evolution (such as selective breeding and the adaptation of finches), even if there’s only circumstantial evidence that it’s how we got here. In my book, a proven fact with a theory behind it is more believable than a possible ‘God’ with a theory behind it.

Gotta give it to you, you’re like Herpes Simplex 2, you never go away, just keep flaring up!
Speaking of germs, since you have studied evolution and don’t believe in it.Could you explain the exogenesis of viruses within hosts and why it is not proof of evolution.
Let me simplify it for you:
You see when ANY virus attacks a host, it isn’t to feed, because viruses have no digestive system, no mouth, no ailimentary system(asshole). In easy speak, without a host to infect, they aren’t technically alive. They are just a packet of mRNA in a protein shell.When they do infect a cell, they inject the mRNA into the cell and its genetic material binds with the present DNA and gives it new growth instructions. The cell turns into a virus factory, making new viral material until the cell membrane ruptures(this is called phaging), and the new viruses spread to other cells and repeat the process.
The virus takes some of the DNA within the cell and uses it for its own needs, yes. But it also takes some of the cell’s DNA and incorporates it with its own. The change in thd viral DNA structure may cause the virus to become more virulent, infectious. Or it may become less so. But overall the virus is different.
Now, what I just described to you(and any lay-person can understand what it implies) is why the flu changes from year to year, why you can’t vaccinate someone for a cold(because it passing from one host to the next changes the structure of its DNA, and unless you can predict how it will change in the next host, vaccination is useless), how geneticists can tell who was the first person to infected in an area(patient zero). This on its face is…
EVOLUTION!
Not abiogenesis(something from nothing, like rotten meat makes maggots), but evolution. In addition, natural selection guarantees that only the most capable viral strains will reproduce and multiply. I didn’t say “strongest”, but capable. Moths, within one generation, can change their wing patterns and become unrecognizable next to their relative, yet the change in pattern may make it less likely to be eaten by a predator.
Tell me why this isn’t true, give me the name of the scientific gruop with the papers to prove it, don’t give me biblical quotes, or ANY of Duane Gish’s or Discovery Institute’s shit in it. Put your money where your mouth is.
But you wont answer me, I know you wont. BS in Marine Biology, have I, young Padewon! I’ll send you so much literature on evolution, when you shit, you’ll think of finch’s beaks! I am a little too much for you to take. Like I told you before, I was like you; and dare I say, I know how to take on your arguments. I will show you what a Pastafarian is really about. Really hope you give me an answer.

Okay, I’m Catholic and even I believe this is taking it too far. Everyone is entitled to thier beliefs, but really, there is no proof that a god exists, whether he is known as the Flying Spagetti Monster or simply as God. Therefore, religion is based soley on what you believe. And also, Christian, have you ever heard of Pope Innocent the sixth? Or the crusades? Did you know that the bible was written more than a hundred years after Jesus lived (I know it was like, way more than that, but I don’t have time to look it up)? Oh yeah, and do you believe women are evil? because according to the bible, they are. The bible was written by power-hungry, beuracratic men. So they were kind of biased. And you do realize the church was okay with slavery, feudalism, and making girls marry at thirteen, letting their husbands rape them, and then having them die in childbirth because they were too young to have their bodies handle it? Not to mention the whole only letting very rich men be educated. Oh yeah, and just throwing this out there: didn’t Jesus say something about everyone, even the gentiles? So yeah, I thought every religion had to be flawed because to me, that’s part of a religon’s definition. But I applaud Pastafarianism because it is something to believe in, but tolerence is a huge part of it. You may not think they are tolerent from their website, but I have never heard of an instance where they attacked a religon deliderately and unprovoked. So yeah, that is comendable and definately something to be proud of. And a question: How do you not believe in evolution when there are so many cases of scientific proof of its existence? Honestly,do you think scientists have a conspiracy against God dating back to Darwin? Or actually before that if you think about Galileo? So Christian, wake up. And you’ll notice that not once have I slammed the god you and I both believe in. I have slammed Christianity’s history, and I have heard priests do the same. Christian you are intolerant and I pity you, pity you so much because you do not seem to get that there is always a line, and you are so far across it that I highly doubt you will ever so much as see it again. Jesus taught “Love thy nieghbor as you love thyself.” Um…I’m not seeing much love, or respect even. Oh yeah, and if you call me a godless heathen who will rot in hell, which is something I’ve never believed is God’s punishment for the “misguided”(not my word), you will be a hypocrite, because I don’t think God would want people to be forced to believe in him. Actually, I believe that doing so is a horrible act of tyranny. I may not be totally on the Christian Path to Eternal Life, but I feel that lying about history is not going to change it, and that the history of Christianity is so terrible that I’d understand the most devout christian in the world simply reading it and becoming an atheist. Forcing someone to believe something they think is ludicrous is a gross infringement of their rights. So do us all a favor, Christian, and look up the word “tolerance” and then learn how to do it. May everyone find something or someone to beieve in and not be persecuted for that belief, because everyone is owed that simply by being a human being.
And by the way, I think you need to hear this quote. It’s a quote that I think everyone who believes in the same God that I do needs to remember.
“God is a comedian, playing to an audience too afraid to laugh.”
-Voltaire

@ Adam the Poet #134
I feel like I should buy you a beer. I was going to go into the plate tectonics thing (BS in Geology) to tell our misguided friend about the shellfish on the mountain (seems to me that was the argument they used back in the 1830’s), and expound on the likely relationship of dinosaur toys and drawings to their actual contemporaneous presence with the toy/drawing makers, but I like your response much better.

P.S. In the interest of providing useless and irrelevant information, my name means “foreigner” in old Norse, and my blogging moniker suggests I’m sort of the ultimate foreigner. This is certain to help Christian understand my point of view.
Or not.

Okay, how can you believe in something that you do not understand, if you don’t understand something then you can not know the full beliefs. How do I know you don’t know? Because you state “God warns that you cannot explain spiritual things to mortals because they don’t understand them.” Yet you say you follow the teachings. That would be like me following a road in a foreign country, with all the signs in a language I don’t comprehend. Yes, I can get the basic feel of the signs based on what they look like, but for all I know I could be driving down a one way street. It’s dangerous to do something like this. Furthermore, the bible states to follow the law of the land, yet kings in the past have decreed that all newborns must be killed, even though the Bible says murder is a sin, but people had to do it. Fact is that most Christians follow parts of the Bible that they see as convenient. I don’t think you’re a true Christian, know why? Because I doubt you wear clothes that aren’t cross fibered, I doubt you are subservient to a man. I also highly doubt you don’t eat food that comes from a hooved animal. All of these things ARE in the Bible. If you don’t follow them all then you can’t possibly be a true Christian.

Post #142: Wow, you have all of our respect, I think. Not many religious people who have posted on this site have been as respectful and rational and with a sense of humor. (Spelling’s better too xD)
Congrats.
