Neymar did absolutely nothing wrong. Jesus was a cool dude, would praise the Lord if i was religious.

Also, what happened in that college-dropping 'debate' you had?

I tried Law School once more this year, my second College degree actually. So the philosophy teacher starts a trend about how faith is the source of all evil and how stupid God´s faith is and even the old cruzades arguments and stuff.

And these 87 students, mostly youngsters, where eating with a spoon. So I put out the big guns and refuted avery single argument the teacher had and then some of the students.

They threw everthing but the kitchen sink on me and the thing lasted for like 30 minutes. I defended the Lord Jesus Christ, that was all.

I stayed a couple months more but they made it clear I was no longer welcome.

So, I dropped.

"Philosophy teacher" - There's the problem.

Unless you started going all Deus Vult and Burn the Heretics or began preaching to them i don't see why you shouldn't have been welcome, unless all colleges are turning to shit.

I assure you I was not like that.

I read Ravi Zacharias, Frank Turek and Willian Lane Craig the whole year last year, and the Bible, of course, so my responses where firm, but in love and meekness. Not once I used the "burn in hell" card or any of that, only pointed the flaws in their attacks against Jesus Christ.

Anyways, that college sucked anyway, so I do not care. I already have a job and a college degree, I will not miss those guys.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

All I got to say is this.....

THANK YOU, NEYMAR, FOR TAKING THE ATTENTION AWAY FROM DUMBASS RYAN LOCHTE...

Let the next games begin.....

Sure:

1 - They said christians are evil because of the cruzades.

I answered that the cruzades were not caused by the Lord God or the Lord Jesus, and the Lord was not responsable for the wrong things people do in His name. People use scape goats for their evil acts since the Garden of Eve, even Adam blamed the snake for his disobedience.

 

2- They said that God did not exist because there is evil in the world.

I answered that , by this same logic I can say God DOES exist because there is also GOOD in the world. I also said christianity believes in the original sin and in a fallen world that is no longer abbiding by the Law of God, but that the individual link is restored in part when one believes in the Lord Jesus Christ and becomes born again. I also said that christians believe that the evil part of man would only fade away after the death and ressurrection in Jesus.

3 - They said God is evil because he hates homossexuals.

I answered that all sin is bad, and homossexuality is no worst than envy, anger, lies, murder... The Lord loves and is willing to forgive everyone, specially homossexuals. I also said that being attracted to the same sex may not be a choice, but the same goes to many things we feel, like lust. The thing is to realize we are not good and we NEED a saviour to pay for our evil.

They made like more than ten questions like that.

You don't equate homosexuality with murder, I hope.

No, of course not,  I know murder is worst than lying and stealing is worst than adultery, things like that. What I meant is that we do bad things, we are not good, get it? It is not like everyone gets a free pass but the homossexuals, sin is bad and that is why we need the Lord Jesus Christ, cause he died for our sins.

I mean, that is my faith, the people were bashing God and Jesus and if I stayed silent it would be like I was denying Christ before men, so I decided to talk.

I am not ashamed of what I did.

I've talked to a person who says that in the eyes of God, sin is sin no matter what kind it is. As long as it's against His will, it's sin and that's all there is to it. Sadly, it also seems like the logical conclusion according to my knowledge of Christianity and the Bible. It does make sense if you look at it from a certain angle (a crime is a crime).

Disclaimer: I don't know what to believe in. Science still leaves enough room for God to exist, but there's also no scientific evidence supporting God. I'm happy enough with recognizing the situation and not making up my mind because it doesn't really matter right now. I'd rather give God the benefit of doubt than outright deny His existence.

Err what? Any evidence?

If I post the pics people will say I am a hypochrite and a conspiracy theorist, and that is not the point. I do not care if the whole world worship the devil, as long as people allow me to worship the Lord Jesus Christ, and that a guy like Neymar Jr, can wear a Jesus bandana if he wants to.

So, just for you not to call me a liar, I will post 1 and only one pic, BUT I AM NOT saying these people do not have the right of making the gestures, they can do whatever, I do not care.

That does not back up your claim that it is a fact, nor that the Olympic committee specifically encouraged atheletes to do it. Nor that this particular gesture has Satanic or Illuminati overtones. What makes you a conspiracy theorist is the OP where you cite this thing as fact with no evidence. What will stop you from being regarded as a conspiracy theorist it to provide objective evidence of the claim.

As to the actual topic, sure, I have no problem with people being able to wear or show symbols of their religion in this setting. People do it all the time and it gets no comment, and this case should be no different.

Neymar Jr. should be allowed to wear that bandana without fear of reprisal. I do not believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ, or in any deity for the record.
