Now I'm having a hard time figuring out who is joking and who is not...

Well, an argument for Mario 2 could be made as being the best game ever, just not the American version of it. :)

 I'm trying to tell if anyone's joking with the gay argument thing.  I'm pretty sure one person is, but I'm not entirely sure.

I will answer your questions as it seems you are asking with sincerity.

1.  I get frustrated sometimes when Catholicism and Christianity are lumped together.  What the Vatican is and what Rome through the church has done through history is not according to Christ or what He taught His followers to do;therefore, I have great difficulty in my heart to attempt to call Roman Catholicism "Christian".  I do not mean to insult anyone who is Catholic on this thread.  I grew up one myself.  I left the teaching of the Vatican and embraced the teaching of Christ, the Bible, when I was seventeen.

2.  People do not go to hell for being gay, or for any of the following:  murder, raper, stealing, adultury, drinking, and so on, and so on.  The dependant factor for one's going to heaven or hell rest solely upon one thing:

Has a person recognized a need for Christ to save him/her from the trangression of sin.  All have sinned; therefore, all need Christ.

Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Joh 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Yeah, but Christ died for us to to cleanse us of our sins. I feel un-sinful. Other than that, it's complete bs to even believe in that. To have faith in some kind of god means to be too weak to handle reality as it is. That's my opinion though. Not to mention that religious fanatics are just plain annoying.

you are religious too.  You have a system of beliefs that denies God.  The Satanic church is a religious establishment.  Religion = system of beliefs.  Your denies God, I choose to accept him.

Could you kids take that religion *insert vulgar word for feces here* elsewhere. Make your own thread if you must.

My BS is enough for this thread.

Jeez, way to bring down a joke thread.

There is no god.  Get over it. 

When I saw the thread title I thought...... 

But now that I have read the thread, I know it is so much more
