Christianity


I find Christianity to be most disturbing. There are many things about it that show that it has no place in modern or even civilized society. Things like Buddhism I can respect, because of the self-improvement it teaches. But Christianity, on the other hand, teaches hate and violence. Oh sure, It says "Thou shall not kill" but check what it says in Deuteronomy 7:1-2:
"When the Lord your God brings you into the land you are entering to possess and drives out before you many nations . . . then you must destroy them totally. Make no treaty with them, and show them no mercy." Oh, and think Christianity is apposed to slavery? Think again. In Exodus 21:20-21, it says:
"If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property." Real nice, huh? Oh, and everyone knows that the bible teaches that men and women are equal, right? Wrong. In Ephesians 5:22-24, it says:
"Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything."
Nope, nothing in there that says "Oh, and men should do the same." "Oh, you need to read all the bible to get it.", People say. It seems rather clear to me. Rather clear that its either a lie and a poorly written book(Most likely a lie), or god is real and is a totally sadistic creep, who, if I had Irrefutable proof that he is real, I would only worship out of fear. I'll post more on the subject of Christianity later. I retrieved info for this post from http://home.earthlink.net/~owl233/biblequotes.htm
