This is just to all those that think they're sceptics, but at the same time, beleive in God and all types of spiritual stuff that are basicly the biggest hoax of all time, and there are usually signs to the intent of the hoax: Christianity only became an established religion around 300 years after christ died, so it's also unlikely that we know what year or even what day Jesus has died, but at around that time they were on the brinks of a major social disaster, and the ingenious advisors of the time realized that a bunch of superstitious citizens were less likely to commit crime, so there was less of a patroll for the government, we see in judiasm that there has never been proof that the jews were ever in egypt or of any other things concerning their earlier years, so to say that what actually happened (the miracles that were supposed) to make religion, would be a guess and just like every other hoax- a matter of beleive.

Just for the record, I've never deleted a post, shut down a thread, or disparaged ferrets. And I never lie. I don't always tell the truth, but I never lie. Ask the Llamas |

Hi. My name's maclure. You might remember me from such hoax forums as "The Virgin Mary appeared in my toilet paper!" and "BAN ME! THE STORY OF AN ALL CAPS USER". |

Truth to tell, Alex has, on occasion, had to alter a post or two of mine due to extreme brainfarts (on my part, of course). Like dual posts, or extremely incoherent rants due to electrolysis overdose. Hey, I was going to the beach |

I find that I spend a large amount of time deleting accidental posts of mine in the forum. Since there are no html tag buttons on the main sight, and I never remember how to code, I have to open a second window in a random forum thread, type my message, then copy the code to the main thread to paste. I invariably hit submit on the forum thread creating a completely off-topic post that I then have to delete. |

Here's an excellent site for those that need information to debate Christianity and the Bible (if you haven't thought of enough yourself).
The Skeptic's Annotated Bible
There is also a Koran section for your viewing pleasure. |

Funny..."The simple believeth every word." Proverbs 14.15. I think someone's already mentioned this one though.  |

It's CAPTAIN Al! Read my lips.
I scanned NormalBobSmith.com quickly. Good stuff. I've bookmarked it for later study. That guy sure knows how to push people's buttons. But I like the way Skeptic's Annotated Bible makes arguments about things the faithful can't argue and still claim their monopoly on morality.
Lev 20:13 "... shall surely be put to death.",
is pretty clear. God believes in captial punishment for gays.
The handicapped are not allowed to have God: "Whosoever ... hath any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God." (Lev 21:17-23)
And of course, there's how to sell your daughter and what to do if she does not please her master (Exodus 21:7-8).
The Bible makes great family reading! |

Bob Smith does NOT like to push people's buttons. He likes to park a freakin bus on their buttons.
He's not always right, but then neither is anyone else. He does make a lot of good points, though.
But the threatening letters from people who describe themselves as good christians never fail to entertain me.
And he's the only guy on the entire PLANET to have the balls to go and see "The Passion of the Gibson" of full devil costume. And take a friend with a camera with him.
To sum it all up (and change the subject back to the topic), I believe that all gods collectively are the biggest hoax on mankind. Period. There is nothing you could do as a hoax that will ever involve so many people across the planet, and, indeed, across time.
So I'll leave you with a little NormalBob cartoon or two. |

Hi guys, I would like to drop my five cents on the Christianity hoax thing.
We have a problem with the New Testament (New Age) right from the start. Like I just mentioned...NEW is already a change in religion. Nothing is more what it was before. From there on, you get to do with (I'm sorry if you're offended) the first lesbian conceiving of a child in history! As the Holy Spirit is a female personality and so was Maria. From there on the parents were supposed to call the man Immanuel, instead they called him Jesus. And then Jesus said that there was no man born from a woman greater than John. He actually thought that John was the Messiah. Later on, it changed. Also, we all know that Constantine and his 80 (or so) priests created this hoax, not that it was new at the time....it is nothing more than the religion of Babylon. Jesus let the people 'eat' his flesh and 'drink' his blood. Christians do this ritual very regulary in Church. It's disgusting. And we call ourselves...sane? I'm sorry if you're offended, but I must tell you, the Old Testament holds all the truth. It also says that everyone shall die for his own sins. Not someone else! It makes me mad to find out I was lied to! If I may give some advice, please stick to the laws that His Majesty YHWH gave us. It is worth it. |

Hello...
I stumbled upon this by accident really. I used Google to search for the Russian MIG pilot that defected in the 70's (no, I cannot actually explain how I got here from THAT...but somehow, that search was the origin )
I cannot tell anyone what they "have" to believe--I wouldn't even think of trying to do as such. I can only say what I believe and leave it at that. I'm not even sure why I'm posting this. I had no intention of doing so as first. Still...for what it's worth...
I went through a large portion of my life doing my "own thing". It was ok...I had some fun...but I could always feel something missing...something out of place. I dunno what the exact wording is but I remember the feeling.
I'll keep this brief. Due to a series of intense events in my life, I finally came to the what I consider to be fact. There is a God...there was and is a Jesus...and my life has never been the same since accepting that. My entire outlook on life shifted and I found a peace and a strength that I'd searched for during most of my walk on this earth.
You'll never prove or disprove "religion" by argument or fact. It's been tried and always fails. It's a personal matter between an individual and the Creator. But, if you ever receive that touch, you cannot deny it's power.
I'm no expert on theology. I'm just an average guy of, at best, average intelligence and I know that. Still...it's my sincere wish and...yes, my prayer...that every reader in this topic experiences what I've experienced because it's so special, pure and powerful.
Religion? It's a matter of faith...and, no person can ever instill that in you.
Best to each of you and your families. |

my argument isnt the existence of god, or the birth of jesus as i beleive he was born but he was not the son of god just is his mother lied to cover up her infidelity, and joseph wernt the brightest spark and his friends didnt wana upset him, may seem crazy but read my theory. Mary and joseph are married and joseph must be suffering impotence or something or just works 2 hard and is always tired 4 sex, n e way due to this the virgin mary is having it away behind his back, and thusly gets pregnant, she knows joseph might get a bit suspicious about this as he's never had a bit of upstairs downstairs with mary but now shes with child.(mary has no broken 1 of the 10 commandments-adultery) Marys only chocie is ti lie to joseph (commiting one of the seven sins) to tell a lie so ridiculous that joseph has 2 believe it so she says...this child is the son of god....angel came down blah blah blah. Think if your partner told you this you would think theres no way she could tell a lie this stupid and expect 2 beleive it so its got 2 b the truth...thus the story carries on and the religion of christainity is created upon lying \and adultery. Bit more believable than a stable and some shepards |

Mark-n-Jen - If Christianity, or any religion, is ever disproved by science, it very well may start a war. Maybe not here in the US, but I imagine abroad it could. People and their beliefs/faith are just that, their own. The reason science would never disprove religion is because of the consequences to science in the aftermath.
People like to have something to hold on to. They want to believe that the 75 or so years you spend on this earth are not all there is to our existence. They want to believe that what they do now will somehow affect how their after-life goes. Otherwise, how do these people discern right from wrong. Moral from immoral. Science could not provide that for them like religion can. Science cannot prove right or wrong, at least not in a sense like religion does.
I am not a believer, at least not in Christianity. I do not berate people or try to persuade believers to give up their beliefs. I find it hilarious how the opposite is not true. My friends and family who are Christian(Catholic and Lutheran) are just appalled that I do not believe and do whatever they can to try to convert me. Why is that? Why do Christians feel the need for everyone to have their same beliefs? |

At the risk of opening a big flame war again, steve, it's pretty clear you haven't read the Bible before you came upwith this theory of Christ's birth. It falls down when you claim that Joseph and Mary were married when she became pregnant; According to one gospel, they were betrothed, but most sources state that Jospeh offered to amrry her after she had become with child, which is a pretty radical thing for him to have done at the time - Well, even today, as few men rush to marry a teenage mother in Mary's state.
Oh, and recall that Mary was only recently a woman in the legal sense, that is 14 years old, when she concieved. Admittedly, given life expectancies that's like she was 30 or so in the modern age, but still . . . It makes one wonder about God's headspace.
And why all the attacks on Christianlty? Is it because the US is such a publicly Christian country that this sort of thing is the only way you people can still play at teenage rebel? |

I believe everyone here are going on assumptions and "christian history" for information.....Arius Calpornius Piso and his italian aristocrat family created Christiany through egyptian and paganist gods and characters....this religion was created to keep the sephardic jew population from increasing inside of rome. And christianity is a hoax for the definition is purposely misleading. But this is just on a grand scale.....60% pf the world is catholic or christian! |

Ok, let's make it simple.
Religion is the tool to control one group of ppl by another
Religion is the opium (drug) for masses
Drug can be good and bad. While ppl had nothing ,the most powerful tool is ideology. And in this case religion can be very well suited.
Christianity managed to survive because at that time ppl was needed something to unite them. While Jewish religion was more into it self, there was a need for something bigger. Christianity was an alternative.
AS for Jesus.. have he ever lived. Sure. Are there any evidence of person by name Jesus being prosecuted. Sure
Is he a god? that's the part many trying to interpreted. If the bible was written or inspired by God then it would be a perfect book trough all the time it exist without any interpretation. Can some one read the bible today( not just piece here and there) and realize wtf it is saying. It was written for ppl of that time and never was indented to be a book for modern age. That's why we need so many interpretations for each statement in the book. We have tools and some knowledge to analyze the book but can we really accept the answers? No.
One more point before i am done... While so many ppl blame Jewish for crucifying Jesus... they all forget or never read the damn bible them self and realize ( of cause if they capable to think once in while without blind faith) that Jesus according to the God rules was against the Jewish religion. And the first commandment ....
I am The Lord your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me." (Exodus 20:2-3 RSV)
The Creator Is The Only True God
So if ppl follows what God say then who would be the Jesus in this situation? (he was claimed to be a son of god only 3 days after his death) . And the ppl who crucified him were the Romans , not the Jesus.
"The Biggest Hoax of History!!! "
i don't believe it was a hoax , i believe it was artificially created for the need of that time. And, any religion did play a significant role trough our history. |
