Religion See other Religion Articles Title: The Bloody Bible The greatest atrocities that man has had to endure at the hand of his fellow man have been in the name of GOD. The pages of the Bible are painted red with blood spilled to please this bloodthirsty vampire known as "God." NOTE: The analysis that follows is largely based on the irrational belief that an actual God(s) exists and that the world is subject to intangible, magical forces. For a more probable analysis of who the authors of the Bible were talking about when they used the word "God," see The Immaculate Deception.. "Sacrifice"...a word often heard coming from pulpits as preachers attempt to bleed dry the pockets of their congregations. Put simply, sacrifice is merely giving up something of one value for something of lesser value. The word "sacrifice" is synonymous with the word "injustice," because when something of value is traded for something of a truly lesser value, an injustice has occurred. In accordance with the twisted morality of the Bible, it isn't surprising that sacrifice is considered a virtue rather than the sin which it really is. One of the greatest examples of God's true nature is reflected in the fact that he not only accepts sacrifices, but he demands them. God has demanded that blood be spilled in order for him to extend his mercy (Leviticus 17:11). Thousands of years ago, God was willing to accept the spilled blood of animals in exchange for his forgiveness, but even the deaths of billions of animals didn't provide enough blood to satiate his hunger. The Bible tells us that humans were to be killed as an offering to this bloodthirsty God (Leviticus 27:29) even though modern believers deny that God accepted human sacrifice, that's exactly what these executions were. Even that human blood wasn't sufficient to permit God's "grace" to cover the sins of man so a half human/half God (Jesus) had to be killed. Now we have the ultimate injustice...spill the blood of the most valued in exchange for the least worthy. And somehow this injustice (sacrifice) is so "perfect" that God is able to extend his "perfect mercy" without offending justice. If you're confused, you must not have a Christian background because this is exactly what the fundamental view of salvation amounts to. "Washed in the blood of the lamb," as they sing in church. What a disgusting image that paints. More examples concerning blood sacrifices to God in the Bible: One of the great paradoxes of the Bible is the fact that God gave man the commandment "Thou shalt not kill" then turned around and ordered the slaughter of countless animals and human beings. He also claimed that anything which killed a man would be killed by man (Genesis 9:6), unless, that is, God wanted them to kill man, then they could get away with it. God's morality is based on the changing whim of God alone. Don't even try to figure it out! Biblical examples of God ordering man to kill his fellow man or condoning the killing of humans: [snip] Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top Page Up Full Thread Page Down Bottom/Latest Begin Trace Mode for Comment # 8.

I fail to see how quoting from a book can be considered attempting to discredit it - the words are there in black n white and programmed into lil minds from birth - from wiping out all life on Earth with a flood to wiping cities off the face of Her with ? - specific instructions in text after text on how to commit genocide? because he was mad at them, they would not listen to him - wow eh? just for kicks, I tried using the bible to spell out facts to me on the 'crimes' of this Satan fellow I'm supposed to hate - count them yerself - how many cities did he destroy, people, women, children he murder or order murdered? yea, the weirdos now days do all kinds of things and say 'the devil made me do it' - but in that instruction book they call the bible, I can't find any instance of Him teaching us to murder, rape or swipe the good looking virgins, etc.

It is an amazing thing to see. It took a long time for me to see it. Time was, I'd have said the same things that they say, but I'd have been more ... vocal(!). There is a lot of truth in your sig line. Here is the first song most of us learn first in sunday school www.dltk-bible.com/jesus_loves_me.htm Here is the first verse: Jesus loves me! this I know, For the Bible tells me so. Little ones to Him belong; they are weak but He is strong. How many look at that and consider the words? It's total crap! This seeing themselves as being weak and belonging to someone else is total bullshit. This is where the programming starts. And seeing it really pisses me off. It sets people up for a lifetime of being powerless and ignorant, while the programmers steal their birthright. .
