Let's see, *IF* the **FABLE** contained in the Babble WERE true and "WE" are
***ALL*** ****REALLY**** (the Christstain) God's children that means our
"FATHER" raped and molested one of His little girls (our LITTLE sister) who
was just barely old enough to conceive (: rape and molestation without her
knowledge also commonly known as incest ;) creating the bASStyrd child
raised by a stepfather and a teenage-girl yet?-mom named Joseph and
The Virgin Mary (TVM is STILL a virgin even after the lil'bASStyd's birth
which I'm sure STILL happens everyday even now)...how am I doin' so far?

About as logical and rational as a stoned aardvark with paranoid

Just let me know what I've said is NOT true and we can continue to deal
with the rest of the *****LIES***** with in the mythical, err, I mean true
(stories) of The Babble collection of stories...then we can dig into the
several hundreds of lies, fables and myths left out of the Canon by the
original "Creator" of The Christinsanity CULT...ordinary men; i.e; the
GRAND-Fathers of Jesus

Good to see that logical argument and reason are still alive and well
in the atheist world.

Many people who claim to be Christians believe that any religion one
professes is all right. But if Christianity is not superior to other
religions, then as Professor D.S. Sama has noted, "it just may as well
join hands on equal terms as their friend and ally in a common cause".
The majority of the world's religions are more of a philosophy of life
than a religion, and those that are religious usually incorporate many
gods. In the Hindu religion, as an example, one can essentially do as he
wishes; follow any ritual or custom he chooses, and still be a Hindu.
They accept the principle that all religions are true and lead to the
same goal. Then there is Buddhism. Gautama Buddha was married
and had a child. At age 30, he abandoned his home and family never to
return. This he supposedly did in answer to an inner craving that was
not satisfied. He sought for inner peace through a life of abstinence
and asceticism.
According to tradition, Buddha received enlightenment while sitting
under a "bo tree" meditating. There is no way of knowing what part of
Buddhist teachings came from Buddha himself since no record of his
teaching seems to have been committed to writing for over 200 years.
Then too, Buddhism in its original form was not a religion at all. It
was more a system of psychological ethics. Buddha felt no particular
need for a god. To him, worship was useless and prayer empty.
Confucius claimed to be an agnostic concerning the next life and the
world of the gods. His mind was immersed in the affairs of this life. To
him, human nature was naturally good. He did not object to ancestor
worship. His primary interest was in society and the state.
Mohammed, the founder of Islam, was married and had twelve or thirteen
wives, not counting slave girls in his harem. He did teach the concept
of "one God". He was active in civil, political, and military affairs.
He led armies that in time captured the territory of Arabia. The
teachings of Mohammed were soon recorded in what is known as the Koran.
Of course, like Confucius, Buddha and others, Mohammed went to his grave
and remains there.
When one turns to Christianity with Judaism as its forerunner, many
things stand out by way of comparison. The first is a strict monotheism.
Jehovah God is the Creator and the sustainer of the universe, of life
and of all things. This is in striking contrast to a gross polytheism
found in the majority of religions, Islam being an exception. Only in
the Judaeo-Christian religion does one find a logical, sensible, and
reasonable explanation of the creation. The accounts of creation found
in other that the Genesis record are written on a low mythological plane
with a sordid conception of deity. At times the gods plot and fight
against one another.
Only in Christianity do we find a prophetic message heralding one who
is to be sent out from God as man's deliverer and Savior; the only
begotten Son, designated God with us and known as prophet, priest, king,
wonderful, counsel-or, mighty God, everlasting Father, prince of peace.
(Read Isaiah 9:6; Matthew 1:21-23; Hebrews 3:1). This prophetic story
has its setting in Jewish history centuries before the birth of Christ.
Moses told how God would raise up a prophet to whom the people should
listen. Deuteronomy 18:15. Micah said he would be born in Bethlehem -
Micah 5:2. The entire 53rd Chapter of Isaiah describes him as God's
suffering servant, sent out from the Lord to redeem mankind from sins.
Joseph was told, "And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call
his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins." Matthew
1:21. This puts Christianity into a category all to itself.
When Jesus was born, numerous forces and factors converged on this
event to confirm the message of the prophets. Ma ry, his mother, was
reminded by an angel that her conception was divinely authorized. Read
Luke 1:26-35. Joseph, who was engaged to Mary, was informed by the angel
that her conception was of the Holy Spirit - Matthew 1:20. The angels
announced his birth to the shepherds Luke 2:5-11.
John the baptizer was commissioned to prepare the way for Jesus. Read
John 1:23-34.
Jesus immediately affirmed His divine nature. He said He had come down
from heaven to do the Father's will - John 6:38-39. He claimed to be
"the living bread", John 6:51; "the light of the world", John 8:12; "the
Good Shepherd", John 10:14; "the resurrection and the life", John 11:25.
He supported His claim by miraculous works, even to raising the dead.
Read John 11. The climax came when He was placed in the tomb and came
forth on the third day. (This record is found in Matthew 27 and 28; Mark
15 and 16, and Luke 23 and 24).
For a period of 40 days after His resurrection, He appeared to His
apostles instructing them about His coming Kingdom. Read Acts 1:1-5. At
the end of this period, He ascended into heaven. Acts 1:9 reads, "And
when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and
a cloud received him out of their sight." Verses ten and eleven inform
us that two men in white clothing stood beside them and said: "Ye men of
Galilee, why stand you gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is
taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as you have
seen him go into heaven." Here, briefly stated, is why we choose
Christianity. It is validated by a RISEN LORD!

Yawn ... you freedumb of religion fuckers are so stupid you are STILL
waiting for the "Second Cumming"? What the HELL do you the the

ROTFLMM-FAO...you idiots don't even realize you're actually waiting on the
"Third Cumming" and if He actually showed himself to His apostles for 40
days after His resurrection He would be on more like His "43rd Cumming" eh?

Jesus, Son Of God (and Da'Virgin Mary) raised by STEPdad Joseph, is nothing
buttaholy bASStyrd...which reminds me...just who is the grandFATHER of the
baby bASStyrd anyway?
