CHRISTIANITY A PEACEFUL AND TOLERANT FAITH?
Northern Ireland civil unrest between Catholics and Protestants is an aged problem of
Christianity, considered "Peanuts" in the history of atrocity and
brutality initiated by religious propagation.
Hundreds millions innocents killed in Roman
Inquisition, Spaniard Inquisition, Crusader wars, St Bartholomew's Day
Massacres and India - Goa Inquisition. In the name of religon. The Great
Massacres of the St Bartholomew's Day in 1572, was the worst bad bloods
between the Protestants and Catholics that carry on for more 420 yrs till
today.
In fact biblical fables mentioned more killings
(massacres approved by God) than any religious book Check this out such
religious fanatics brutality spelt out in their Folly Bible.
MASSACRE Authorized by Moses (Dt 20:13,16).
Decree to destroy the Jews (Est 3).
Instances of: Inhabitants of Heshbon (Dt 2:34),
of Bashan (Dt 3:6), of Ai (Jos 8:24-26),
of Hazor (Jos 11:11-12),
of the cities of the seven kings (Jos 10:28-40).
Midianites (Nu 31:7-8).

Worshipers of Baal (2Ki 10:18-28).
Sons of Ahab (2Ki 10:1-8).
Royal family of Athaliah (2Ki 11:1).
Inhabitants of Tiphsah (2Ki 15:16).
Edomites (2Ki 14:7)
DEUTERONOMY 20:13,16
When the LORD your God delivers it into your hand, put to the sword all the
men in it. 14 As for the women, the children, the livestock and everything
else in the city, you may take these as plunder for yourselves. And you may
use the plunder the LORD your God gives you from your enemies. 15 This is
how you are to treat all the cities that are at a distance from you and do
not belong to the nations nearby.
16 However, in the cities of the nations the LORD your God is giving you as
an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. 17 Completely
destroyA them--the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and
Jebusites--as the LORD your God has commanded you. 18 Otherwise, they will
teach you to follow all the detestable things they do in worshiping their
gods, and you will sin against the LORD your God.
- Amen

Here are some excerpts for newsgroup :
The fault with Abrahamic faiths is putting too much
emphasis on believing in the scriptures than good morality and
compassionate actions. Although Christianity, Judaism and Islam preach Peace
and Love, have ever learn to do so. Why Abrahamic faiths fought so badly and
slaughtered one another after many centuries? It mainly because of the
interpretation of scriptures.
Read about what your scriptures said about
"morning star"?
Revelation 2:16
"I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give youA this testimony for the
churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning
Star."
2 Peter 1:19
And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and you will do well
to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day
dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts
But Ah Seow learnt that :
LUCIFER is a Latin word for "morning star"
Isaiah 14:12
How you have fallen from heaven,
O morning star, son of the dawn!
You have been cast down to the earth,
you who once laid low the nations!
14:13
You said in your heart,
"I will ascend to heaven;
I will raise my throne above the stars of God;
blah..blah….
Like a corpse trampled underfoot,
14:20
]you will not join them in burial,
for you have destroyed your land
and killed your people.
The offspring of the wicked
will never be mentioned again.
14:21
Prepare a place to slaughter his sons
for the sins of their forefathers;
they are not to rise to inherit the land
and cover the earth with their cities
Pls my friends-in-Christ,, Bros-in-Islam and
The children of Israel (Juda) fight no more ....
Religious wars killed as many people as natural
calamity. If religious wars are caused by human, than these inhuman culprits
are accountable and their religions are questionable. If natural disasters
are caused by the creator....Then AH SEOW WILL PUT HIM TO TRIAL FOR
GENOCIDE AND TRANSGRESSION.
Why do Abrahamic faiths have to do restored
violent, unlike other atheistic faiths?
Because there were ( are) too many gods, so by
claiming theirs is the one and most powerful, were the sinister works of
religious leaders.
Read your bible, Human Sacrifices are forbidden
(Lev 18:21; 20:2-5;
Dt 12:31). Offered by Abraham (Ge 22:1-19; Heb 11:17-19), by Canaanites (Dt
12:31), Moabites (2Ki 3:27), Israelites (2Ki 16:3; 2Ch 28:3; 2Ki 23:10; Isa
57:5; Jer 7:31; 19:5; 32:35; Eze 16:20-21; 20:26,31; 23:37,39), by the
Sepharvites to idols (2Ki 17:31). To demons (Ps 106:37-38), to Baal (Jer
19:5-6).
Your righteous, yet incestuous patriarch, Abraham
has to be tested by yr God for his devotion? God is almighty, yet he
needs tests!!! ( Using Abraham's son as sacrifice! How inhuman!)
Read why God took favour on Abel's offerings. God
loves MEATS. GOD never like veggies!!! What Cain offered. Read what
did that silly old drunkard patriarch Noah, did when he dismounted from the
Ark? Yes ! Aromatic meats offered for Goodie God.
Aromatic Meat to Easterners ( in particular Korean
and Chinese) is DOG (no offence if spell the other way round) GOD'S meats !

Better, join Morning Star ( Lucifer) in the Eternal BBQ. If you need
light , call me !
I was prompted to read more on Corinthians. A
Buddhist monk pointed that the essence of the teaching on Corinthian was
non-attachment:
1 Corinthians 7:29
What I mean, brothers, is that the time is short. From now on those who have
wives should live as if they had none;
30 those who mourn, as if they did not; those who
are happy, as if they were not; those who buy something, as if it were not
theirs to keep;
31 those who use the things of the world, as if not
engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away.

The Reformation started by Luther and Calvin was

Muslim told me Catholic leaders (Pope) for
thousands of yrs, kept a pics ( painting) that relate to God. Many jihads,

Qu'ran is still intact compare to the Scriptures.
It was proven 40 yrs ago when they found the Dead Sea Scroll. Qu'ran had to
be read in Arabic, unlike other religions, where the holy books were
translated, retranslated, mistranslated and MISINTREPRETED!

After I watched "Independence Day" I
realised the fable on Tower of Babel does has some sense. God was hovering
at the spot where those silly people try to reach by building the Tower. If
God were invisible, who would build caste in the air?
My biblical knowledge might be weak, but still I
could confirm that God wasn't alone.
Genesis 3:22And the LORD God said, "The man
has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil.
Was angel one of God's kinds? Afterall, God created
Sandy man thru his image not angels...

U should read a little of Chinese culture,
literature and history. (Pardon me if u are not a Chinese)
What the westerners doing now are reading our
history, culture and religions. They realised theirs had failed badly.
Pick up Tao Te Ching and Confucius' Annalect and
teachings of Menius, you be amazed that we, Human are all pure and sinless
by birth; as believe most westerners now a day, which our older generation
had always believed.
Even Muslims believe Allah had pardoned Adam's sin.
He is no petty old man. Men are corrupted b'cos of its environment (
upbringing) and not by birth.
HUMAN ARE NO SINNER BY BIRTH!
Man commit bad deeds due to their weakness of their
minds.
What u do is what u leap, Judge not by one's faith
and devotion; But by his deeds...

A Cosmic Contest
The very first chapter answers Job's main question: he had done nothing to
deserve such suffering. Unknown to him, Job was involved in a cosmic test, a
contest proposed in heaven but staged on earth. In this extreme test of
faith, the best man on earth suffered the worst calamities.
You telling I read yr bible wrongly?

So,

Nonsense ! Read probably :
Genesis 4:3
Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil. 3In the course of time Cain
brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the LORD. 4But Abel
brought fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The LORD
looked with favor on Abel and his offering,
5but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor.
Lev 3:16). From what he offers he is to make this
offering to the LORD by fire: all the fat that covers the inner parts or is
connected to them, 15both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and
the covering of the liver, which he will remove with the kidneys. 16The
priest shall burn them on the altar as food, an offering made by fire, a
pleasing aroma. All the fat is the LORD's.
Here, here.. Bible had written God was GREAT
MEAT EATER! He loves FAT and BLOOD! AND 1st BORN, CLEAN = VIRGINS!
He could be VERY PARTIAL if the offering was not
meat but veggie. It was his impartiality that Cain killed his bro. b'cos of
their offerings.
Read :
The sacrifices of Cain and Abel (Gen 4:4-5) show that the rite goes back
almost to the beginnings of the human race. The sacrifice of Noah after the
Flood (8:20-21) is called a burnt offering and is closely connected with the
covenant of God (9:8-17). In his sacrifices, Abraham (12:7-8; 13:4, 18;
15:4ff.) expressed his adoration of God. The establishment of the covenant
between Israel and the Lord was accompanied by solemn sacrifices. The
foundation principle of this covenant was obedience, not sacrifices (Exod
19:4-8)
2Samuel 24:25David built an altar to the LORD there
and sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings.D Then the LORD
answered prayer in behalf of the land, and the plague on Israel was stopped
GOT IT?
I got plenty to flood this thread about God's
transgression and its (I mean He) and his amnesic nature...
