"We need to focus on Jesus, meditate on Jesus, set out minds on Jesus whenever even the slightest desire to have a sexual fantasy arises."

I love this one, too. The question that springs to mind is "so you think about Jesus when you masturbate?":D.

 

Others I love is the ones that try to disprove tree-ring dating, for Ark myth purposes.

On the other hand, there are some frightening ones in there, too:

 

*** Post of the Month for April 2003 ***

 

"Last night, I was reading to my two children out of their 'children's bible.' We got to the story of Abraham and Isaac and I read to them about Abraham being willing to sacrifice Isaac in obedience to God.

 

When we finished my son, who is 9, looked very distraught. He then asked me the most difficult question that I have ever heard in my life....'Would you do that to me if God asked you to?'

 

I sat for a moment and franically thought of what was best to say. Needless to say, my pause was cause for alarm in his mind.

 

After a few agonizing moments, I responded with a very slow and distraught...'Yes. If God commanded me to, then I would have no choice but to be obedient; however, I hope that God would never demand such a thing from me.'

 

He looked shocked. And I felt that I had said the wrong thing. Of course, my wife immediately spoke up and said that she would not ever do anything to hurt him.

 

But I began to explain myself to him. I told him that he was saved, and that death on this earth brings life in heaven with Jesus. He understood perfectly and then said something amazing. He looked at his mother and said, 'I would rather die and go to heaven and God would be happy with you for obeying Him, than to know that when I died you could go to hell for not doing what you were told.'"

All I can say is, "poor kid". Unfortunately, the thread the quote is taken from no longer exists, and as such I'll never know what the replies were. It'd be interesting to know.

 

As a side note, frighteningly enough, they are sometimes right. One attributed (without evidence) a powerful natural wind to the parting of the Red Sea. Of course he pulled it out of thin air, but as luck would have it, there are actually scientists who claim that if a powerful enough wind blew through the area, it could have displaced enough water to allow for Moses and his refugees to cross the sea safely.

Popular scientific theory suggests that a large tsunami is a more likely cause for the parting of the red sea.

[Titanius Anglesmith]

[sarcasm]Yea, a huge wind came blustering through at the exact moment when they needed it. It split the sea open enough for Moses and the refugees to get through and at the moment they were all through, the wind suddenly stopped and drowned all their enemies. Wow, luck was on there side that day, eh?[/sarcasm]

They're just saying it's an explanation. But yes, it is possible. In a world where things such as this happens, everything is possible:p.

Oh wow... I heard that story a few years back, but I figured it was either twisted or misinterpreted, or just plain false.

 

 

That's amazing.

I wonder if anyone said that God saved them by making them all late?

Seems to me it would be easier for God to save them simply by not letting the building blow up but they do say he works in mysterious ways...

 

 

 

It is impossible to calculate precise odds for all these events occurring at once. But past performance indicated that each person would be late for practice one time in four - producing a one-in-a-million chance that the entire choir would be late that night.

So we've gone from bashing religious fundamentalism to admiring stories about exploding churches. Hmmm...

Inexorably, yet smoothly, we move... back on topic!

 

"The parting of the Red Sea? Must have been a really windy day, that's all. Wood staffs turned into snakes? Well, there must be a perfectly naturalistic explanation - apparently, trees evolved into snakes."

A classic two-pronged attack! He skewers both evolution and meteorology with one deft strike.

"No, everyone is born Christian. Only later in life do people choose to stray from Jesus and worship satan instead. Atheists have the greatest "cover" of all, they insist they believe in no god yet most polls done and the latest research indicates that they are actually a different sect of Muslims."

Well, if you say so... Allahu Akbar.

And finally, from RaptureReady.com's environmental FAQ:

 

"By only addressing the symptoms of man's misdeeds, environmentalists are doing nothing to correct the root problem: sin. Without the transforming power of Jesus Christ, the environment will be resigned to its determined fate.

 

God has given fair warning about how the transgression of His law will lead to wide-scale judgment. If environmentalists wanted to do some lasting good, they would be wise to devote their energy to evangelizing lost souls.

 

Even nature itself is under the curse of sin. When Adam fell, the animal world fell with him. As much as we like our cuddly creatures, we should never forget their fallen state. One guy who failed to realize this fact ended up getting killed by a bear he was trying to save."

A wind parting the red sea? Well, granted, that's possible, but seriously, a wind strong enough to do that would have left zero chance for anybody to walk through it. I mean, one can hardly walk (especially over the slickery-ick-ish remains on the ground of an ocean which disappeared just one second ago..) when wind speeds go above 40-50km/h, but these are not anywhere near being able to part an ocean. Also, when winds are strong enough do this, the less concerning thing is the definitely the approaching enemy.

I found that quote the funniest, because to me, I don't know a religion that stresses the fact that there is a God. Ya know, with the praying 5 times a day, and saying "Allahu Akbar" quite a few times while praying.

 

Well, like the site says, "Fundies say the darndest things!"

That one really cracked me up.

 

God wants us to cover our body no matter where you at

 

If god wanted you to cover up your body no matter what why was he so upset when he found Adam and Eve wearing leaves?

July 2003:

I don't give a rat's ass about Occam's Razor. That's just another idol people worship.

Or it's an expression referring to how the easiest explanation is often the best.

 

Mean ole WinAce appears to have mis-quoted a Christian. Aw-w:

Still haven't overcome your irritating tendency towards silly juvenile mockery, have you? For the (?) time, it was ONE demon on the roof, and it was merely WALKING.

 

Seen any wizards lining up near the Polish border?

Why isn't the Vatican denouncing Harry Potter books? Same reason they didn't have the guts to denounce Hilter...

 

And here's the nuttiest Biblical interpretation of the year:

Post 1: Now with all that out of the way; was BURNING SODOMITES ALIVE, a loving thing?... YES. The BURNING ALIVE OF THE SODOMITES WAS A LOVING THING!!! GOD is love, correct? If you don't believe me, go read 1 John right now... So when HE burns alive all the Sodomites the core of that action is love. YES, tough love, but none the less love.

 

Post 2: Yes, Miss 'A', the burning of the sodomites was a violent act. GOD sometimes is violent (see the flood in Gen.). This is what I'm trying to get at. We have made GOD into a Dancing Bunny that just sits up in heaven bouncing and dancing and throwing candy all around HIM. Uhhh, you obviously got the wrong concept!

 

Post 3: I think one of the reasons why Christians are so 'obsessed' with this subject is because their agenda is being shoved down our throats. They want to be recognized as equals as far as man and wife are concerned and that goes against God's Word.

 

Post 4: 1. I'm not as preoccupied by homoSEXuality, as I am THE LACK AND ABSENCE OF THE WRATH OF GOD in our modern day Church.

2. WHY CAN'T MOST OF YOU SEE LOVE IN THE BURNING OF SODOMITES???

The last all-caps line was better than all the other bullocks combined:D.

Bump: Fundie wants Christ to return because... his children are reading the Bible!

 

[Person not understanding the fact that the pictures they're objectioning to from the "Brick Testament" parody site are just illustrations of what their own bible talks about.]

 

How sick and evil. I don't care what the reason is for these pictures, they are disgusting and sick. How dare they put this vile stuff in a book and call it the Bible. I don't want to be the one before the Lord explaining that one. Obviously this person does not have the fear of the Lord in him!

 

My daughter sent me this email saying "best site ever"...she had bought the series for a Christian friend and her little girl...hmmm [...]

 

[Links to a scenes depicting bestiality, sexual discharges, and homosexuality]

 

I won't go on. I emailed my daughter back...I mean REALLY! ABOMINATION! What ever my daughter bought for her Christian friend I hope it didn't have this in it! When I noticed the "ratings"...I thought at first it meant that that part of the bible dealt with sexual topics, language, etc. NOT THAT IT WAS GRAPHIC WARNINGS IN A CHILDRENS BIBILE SERIES!!!

 

Come Lord Jesus before the innocent children are tainted even further. They need you Jesus, we are a corrupt, depraved and sinful generation. For YOUR names sake, return and restore all things! Amen!
