Why do Christians believe in Jesus when He's NOWHERE in the Hebrew Bible?

[Dutch Uncle]

Run, Run, Run, Run, Runaway

Why did Roman civilization collapse soon after Christianity was adopted? Its unpatriotic and cowardly escapism was also practiced in the subsequent Dark Ages mass-murdering chaos and in the stagnancy of the Middle Ages.

[Saint Guinefort]

Wouldn't theology be fiction to an atheist?

Sure. But I can discuss fiction as well.

America Needs Minutemen, Not Mini-Men

Guns without guts is the reason this government and private-sector tyranny keeps getting worse. The huffy-puffy blowhard gunowners don't understand the meaning of "the security of a free state."

You're part of the problem

The Roman Empire lasted for another thousand years, until 1453, after the sack of Rome, but it's capital was Constantinople and it was centered in the wealthier eastern Mediterranean.

I don't see America lasting to much longer.

The entitled hereditary ruling class will become colonial rulers for the Globalist Empire.

Ecclesiastes 3:1,7 & 8

1 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:
7 a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.

So, according to our Bible, there is a time to speak up against you haters. Deal with it.

Irrelevant.

why do atheists always feel compelled to start threads attacking Christian beliefs?........is it insecurity?.....

They're not atheists. They are theists of a competing religion. If you take their claims of atheism on face value, you render them invulnerable.

There are many competing religions that are persistent in their attacks on Christians. They win outright if they get you to direct your ire at a group that isn't even participating while they snipe you with impunity. Remember, atheists have no religious dogma to be threatened by your religion.

bullshit......their dogma includes their faith in their own superiority, their deity is themselves......

Isn't that describing Trump?

How does one claim superiority over something the existence of which is totally unfathomable?

Not all atheists have a sense of superiority. But as for the bit about the deity being themselves, I think that is quite common even among believers. God always seems to like exactly the same things believers like and dislike exactly the same things. The believer often crafts a God to their liking. It's easier to worship that which you like.

Bingo! Humans make gods in their own image.

because christianity has it's own new book. have you heard the good news?

 

[saltydancin]

For someone like you whose actions mock the very concept of God, I would think atheist threads are a positive boon to you!

Such a veritable plethora of balderdash and fabricated misnomers to maintain a suicidal super ego of Christiananality pedophilia rationalized with even more disregard for the laws of nature and nature's God in the 21st century is beyond comprehension....

 

[Yakuda]

Why do Christians always feel compelled to start threads attacking atheists?

Because atheists are hate filled assholes

 

[AProudLefty]

Because atheists are hate filmed assholes

Thank you for proving my point.

 

[Yakuda]

Thank you for proving my point.

I didn't start the thread dipshit. I forgot atheists are morons as well as hate filled. My apologies to you.

 

[Saint Guinefort]

Do you consider anyone who fails to believe the same supernatural claims you believe to be "hate filled"?

 

[Yakuda]

Do you consider anyone who fails to believe the same supernatural claims you believe to be "hate filled"?

No it has nothing to do with what they believe or don't believe, they are hate filled because of their behavior. There are lots of people who believe the same "supernatural claims" that I believe and are hate filled as well. Did this really need to be explained to you?
