Evidence for the existence of God

Vaio will you not understand simple words coming from me? Those that do wrong can be forgiven, but they are less of a person if they do not seek forgiveness and restitution. You can speak the Words of God and change people's lives even when you are in sin, but you, the speaker, are committing a sin and you should know better. The Bible states that whoever knows what is right and does not do it is beaten with many lashes, but whoever does not know what is right and does wrong, will be beaten with few lashes.

The priests are vile for committing the grave sin they have. It would not be beyond comprehension that those priests could have some tie to the homosexual community. Perhaps not all of them, but it would not surprise me to find that out, nay I actually expect that. Not to say that all homosexuals are pedophiles but those who are already debased will seek further debauchery. Look to "San Fan-sicko" to see what I mean. Listen to Michael Savage and listen well for a month and you will truly see what I mean. [link]www.michaelsavage.com[/link]

To the bottom line: those who sin can tarnish the name of God as they have apparently done in this case. I do not agree, nor does the Catholic Church, with the actions of those priests, yet they did it. Does that mean that Christianity believes in molesting young boys? FAR FROM IT! GET THOSE PERVERTS OUT OF THE PULPIT! TAKE THEM TO THE SLAMMER WHERE THEY CAN DO NO MORE HARM TO THE KIDS! Enough of ranting now. I am done for the night.

 

You set your self up so nicely by saying that anyone that speaks the words of God but doesn´t follow the word of God is not a true follower and thus the only ones left to be called worhy followers are those that do nothing wrong.

I am not a gayfriendly person, I am one of those that doesn´t really care about gay people as long as they don´t hit on me but to say that all homosexuals are pedophiles is so wrong in so many ways that it think you have to pray for forgivnes tonight before it´s to late and if there is any selfrespect within this site you should not only be banned for your muslim comments but also be banned an extra 6 months for the homo comment and then sentenced to 10 000 hail marys a day for the rest of your life.

I fully understand what you are saying and to some extent I agree with you that one that speaks and breaks gods laws shouldn´t equal as god is bad but It´s really sickening how Christians all the time and as soon it gets hot uses that excuse instead of taking responsobility in their fellow Chritian brothers actions and say that we are all humans we can do wrong but NO Christians jump high when compared to something bad and scream that´s not representative of GOD. Isn´t the followers a representation of what they follow? shouldn´t the followers take resposobility in what their teachings produce even if it´s not the fault of the belief it self?

 

"I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ." Quote- Mahatma Gandhi

I know your not going to like this, but yes where all humans. Even the pope isn't perfect, no one is. Just cause thiers a group calling themselves christians and believe in God is nothing speacial. Were really not. I follow my religion because its tradition (group gatherings, ~posadas~,ect... ) its just tradition. But religion is  thier to help you have a better relationship with God and thats what is the most important thing in the WORLD!%#@# . And your right we should represent what we follow.

When preaching yet not following what we teach is called hypocrisy. Its something we all do, and its really comon in the bible. (You will find the following verse interesting, when Jesus calls the priets, rabbis and teachers hypocrites. And its really interesting how Jesus spoked of this matter years before the crusades, thievery of the church, abuse of power by the church and just plain lying that may still go on today)

And yes

mark 5:19

19: Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

 Pretty much who ever teaches the word of Jesus but does not follow them will be called the least in the kingdom of heaven.
