That's what they wanted you to believe.

:lol:

thats what He (God) wants me to believe and I do indeed believe it. ;)

God also wants you to believe Jonah lived in a whale. Why? I'm guessing he wants to see just how far you'll take this faith thing seriously. He's quite the kidder, that diety.

Refresh the collective memory, please. Especially since I've never read a single page of the Bible.

That's not all that farfetched, if a really big fish swallowed somebody there's a good chance they can be regurgitated while still being alive if not in there for too long. It's not like he had a furnished house and was playing cards inside the fish.

Though I'm loath to link to a religious website, here is the story of Jonah and the whale. Anyone who says the scriptures are purely historical fact should read this and then type me and all the marine biologists out there a damn good explanation.

Three days and three nights isn't like an hour or two. There's no way.

A whale is a mammal, asshat.

The blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus) is the largest living animal. It is a member of the group of whales known as rorquals. Rorquals are differentiated from other baleen whales by having dorsal fins and long grooves along the throat. The grooves act like pleats, allowing the throat area to balloon out with water when the whale is feeding. Blue whales have from 55 to 88 of these grooves, some extending from the chin to the navel.

Those are my personal beliefs and what most true Christians believe.

No, that's not what most true Christians believe.

True Christians believe that we are sinful by our very nature. We sin constantly, every single day. All of us. Our basest drives and desires are sinful, our very thoughts are sinful. Otherwise, why would God need to crucify jesus for us just to get us into heaven? Because we just can't help ourselves.

Now, it is true that all sins are equal before the eyes of god, right? And you, as well as myself and everyone here are most definately sinners, right? So why then single out gays if all sins are indeed equal and we are all sinners? What happened to "love thy neighbor"?

Oops, forgot that shit doesn't apply to faggots.

There's a differance between trying to stop them from doing something and killing them. Who says I'm hating them by not agreeing with their lifestyle? And we may all be sinners but that doesn't mean we should keep on doing it, we should strive not to do it (in my beliefs anyway). I just don't agree with homosexuality, like I said before, Creationist or Athiests, people just wern't made to be this way.
