If you submitted something last week (Aug 26-Sept 1), please resubmit it here and it will still go up this week.

The submissions post for next week is linked below as usual.

I'm totally serial. And Jesus may have said "judge not, lest ye be judged", but he also said "As for these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slaughter them before me."

I cannot believe I'm actually having this discussion.

You realize what you quoted was a line of dialogue spoken by a character (a king) in one of Jesus's parables, right? Or do you just like to take random lines completely out of context and try to pass them off as "proof" for baseless claims?

Dude, I respect that you're Baha'i and all, but you do realize that these hardcore (professing) atheists and professing (proselytizing) Christians ITT are flip sides of the same very bad coin, right? Matthew 23:15 cuts both ways.

Atheist dude is right that professing Christians are evil....because they think atheists are evil, whereas actual Christianity says atheists are NOT evil...they are actually better than professing Christians, because they say, with honesty, if God were to present Himself face-to-face, they would believe. (Which is prophesied to happen. Google "the World to Come.") As long as they're not forcing their (perfectly sensible) beliefs onto other people, it's all gravy.

Other than that, there's this bit in a sermon given on a hilltop in Jerusalem by a certain Rabbi in Second Temple Palestine, long ago and far away, about loving your neighbour? Yeah, like that. And part of loving your neighbour is letting them exercise their free will. (Yeah I'm a Christian who believes free will is a gift from God. I realize that goes against professing Christian dogma. I'm fine with that.) Which both types of proselytizers DON'T do.

TL;DR: The atheists who want everyone to "convert" are just as bad as the Bible-beaters who don't even open the book and READ it, IME.

I'm actually not Baha'i, though I do agree with some of their beliefs to a certain extent.

And yes, I do find it highly ironic (and funny) that those who loudly claim that the "other side" is full of aggressive people who keep preaching fail to recognize that their own side is the same.

Honestly, if all people just started acting polite, even when they disagree, a lot of problems can be solved. That's something I need to learn myself,m unfortunately.
