Mohammad created, yes, created, Islam in 610, more than 500 years after "Jesus" Christianity had grown by then. I'm not saying Christianity didn't become popular. I'm saying it's based on Paul. Paul "created" through a false history, the "ultimate prophet", THE savior everyone was looking for. Prophets were a dime a dozen back then. A third? More? of the NT is almost directly from Paul.

Jesus didn't write anything...why the hell not!...His disciples didn't directly write anything, nobody did while he was alive. Nobody witnessed and wrote about ANYTHING Jesus supposedly did while alive. EVERYTHING is written at least 30 years after his death. Most almost 100. Look it up, the John, Matthew, in the NT did not know Jesus personally. Why not have the REAL disciples books in the Bible?

Why didn't "God" write anything down for us? A MAN, Muhammad lies about it (is it truly from God?) and Islam spreads like wildfire. Why didn't the "real God" do at least the same?

You should question your belief if you're going to base your life on it.

Where is the Jewish documentation about Jesus? Josephus? A few passing references that COULD have talked about Jesus, all written as memoirs many years later.

The Jews are STILL waiting for the savior, they obviously didn't believe Jesus was the one.

If you have other proof, contemporary proof, NOT from the church, lets see it. There is none. No Roman record of Jesus, no trial, no crucifixion, no burial, no RISING from the burial. Nada, zilch. It's like he never existed until Paul starts writing about him. Paul made him up like Muhammad made up Islam.

No, the FACTS don't support his existence, only the "Christianity Industry" says he existed.

You're living your life based on several thousand year old myths, perpetuated by those who would seek a 10% tithing. You've been hoodwinked!

Yes, actually I AM smarter than most Americans my IQ tests from 132 to 138, how about you?

IQ Test Scores: The Basics of IQ Score Interpretation
IQ Percentile
120 91
125 95
130 98
135 99

I'm not real good with people "on line", I come across as a pompous ******* sometimes, but you should listen.

Beware those who feel the neccessity to parade qualifications and braggadocio about one's self instead of letting the actions speak for themselves.

Jackson ? Jackson ? I always thought Jackson WAS a BLACK NAME You got your Michael Jackson , your Reggie Jackson , your Rev. Jackson , some old woman singer named Jackson .
Why do we need to take a Jackson off the Bill when it is already such a popular Black name ?
Also why not put the first Black President on the Bill you know Willie Clinton . His middle name is Jefferson and that`s a popular Black name too !
Could someone please explain this situation --- like maybe that high IQ lady ? Thanks

Good luck. You're betting your IQ is more superior than faith and belief.

Job 11:12
"An idiot will become intelligent When the foal of a wild donkey is born a man."

Proverbs 16:25
"There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death."

Ecclesiastes 10:2-3
"A wise man's heart directs him toward the right, but the foolish man's heart directs him toward the left. Even when the fool walks along the road, his sense is lacking and he demonstrates to everyone that he is a fool."

Like I said before, the majority believes so there must be something to faith other than mass hysteria. But, it's your choice. Perhaps you are too SMART to believe in a superior entity? I wonder how you feel when you discover those that have a higher IQ than you, that also have FAITH. It must be very confusing for you.

Numbers of academic or personal being in no way assure one's intelligence or smartness. The one's who profess such are to be viewed like a red flag waving!!!!

A guarantee there is something amiss in one's life when they feel compelled to shore themselves up in some manner.

I do not steal, I do not bear false witness against my neighbor, nor do I covet someone else's wife...but I do not do those things for myself - not some make believe God. Possibly you could take your tambourine and start a new tread about "How You Love the idea of GOD". This thread is about oblivion (mostly racial tensions)...

STOCK UP ON AMMO!

I added a couple commas to hopefully make that easier to read, not enough coffee this morning, SORRY!

Hey, I respect you for being a good person. Being a good person doesn't get you to heaven when you croak. But, it your ego is greater than the majority of the World, that's your problem. Does my belief make me a weaker person?

Why stock up on ammo? What are you afraid of? By the way, I went shooting yesterday and hardly put a dent in my ammo supply. But, I really do need to start rotating my old ammo for new.

Only swearing allegiance to a myth does?

Yes, actually it does. You've passed off responsibility for your life and actions. You "passed the buck". What now happens to you is "divine intervention". It's "God's doing" not yours.

Do you really WANT to live in a world where there are gangs of hunters going out to rob for survival? Where you have to be vigilant and protect your property at all times? No thanks...

Good luck friend, because you NEED luck. I'll take my divine intervention over luck any day. If that makes me weak, so be it. It got me through Vietnam, Desert Storm and Iraqi Freedom, as well as 13 years law enforcement, and construction work at heights of over 780ft. Not bragging, just giving someone else the credit for it.

Friend, I have rifles and pistols in my home, but not because I am worried about Doomsday. If I was concerned with survival, I would have stayed in the woods in the Carolinas. If I ever need a gun, I'll take it from the bad guy. Even at my age.

Why don't you worry about our government, the economy, ethics and morals instead of being paranoid and sitting around cleaning your guns? A gun isn't going to do you any good when there is no food produced to take. And that is the only reason for a gun, to survive by getting your food. When everyone quits working and the farming is outsourced to South America, doomsday won't matter. All you will need is one bullet, for yourself. But, you better get right with GOD before you use that one last bullet.

Blah, Blah, Blah...All you will need is one bullet, for yourself. But, you better get right with GOD before you use that one last bullet.

That is odd, I was under the impression taking your own life is a sin...one that is different from all the other sins YOU have committed in life, as it is the only sin you can't ask forgiveness for.

But you would know better than me, cause I just do the good things in life for myself.

STOCK UP ON AMMO! Because when the people with a sense of entitlement get hungry, they are going to take from those that have it (and they don't care if you believe in God or not!).
