Actually, Limbo was abolished years ago. I think Purgatory is still around.
And by the way, I’ll tell you WTF is up with Catholicism. It’s more socially minded than most other Christian denominations, which tend to be a little more Salvation obsessed. that’s not to say there aren’t exceptions to the rule, but that big organization the guy in the big hat runs tends to help people in need more than Evangelists or whatever other denominations there are.

But yes, Catholicism also has humorous sides. That Church is teaching th’ childrens that all non-catholics would go to hell without the grace of the church.
I lol’d.

Yeh. Also, this quote came after they already had been fed. They wanted high quality bread, and God said “Fuck no!” with burning snakes. That should make an impression, but it doesn’t considering the various other things they later whined about…. The survivors learned nothing. Stupid to the Xtreeeeeeeeeeeeme!

I can’t really tell how much they were whining since they’re all mauled by fiery serpents in the next sentence, it implies that its hilariously instantaneous.

Essentially, yes. However, they kept whining. Whine whine whine. Food & water would have been provided when they needed it, but they whined before it was really needed. Yeh. And the books were, in all likelyhood, mostly written & rewritten years and years after the disciples were dead. So yeh.

Pointless crap like “Moses, why did you lead us into the desert? There’s no food or water, we’re a tad concerned” and so God sent down a bunch of fiery serpents to maul and kill a good chunk of them? Yeah that’s reasonable.

And frankly the New Testament seems to be a series of books written over the course of several centuries by a fringe group trying to shoehorn their teacher and their ever evolving beliefs into the teachings of the old Jewish writings in order to give them validity.

He had to be bloodthirsty with the Hebrews because they weren’t getting the point. You know, all those times they whined to Moses about pointless crap? Or the REAL zinger, the time they just decided that God no longer exsisted, though they had SO MUCH proof to the contrary. Mostly it was to try to get their asses into shape, but it didn’t work. That’s why there is a New Testament at all, the chosen people broke off their part of the bargain.

Well again I would think the bloodthirsty god depicted on the Bible really wouldn’t care.

Sorry about that, any links at all get a post held til I approve them, I had to do it because I was getting slammed with spam a while ago. I did manage to improve spam control though so I may let up on the link rules soon.

The kind of people that don’t know this are the ones that either wouldn’t believe, or would beat you up for daring to suggest that their religion is a gamut, and not pure.

Again, English translations are poor at best, and should not be relied on. Why would he allow bad things to happen at all? Here’s why. http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=143&override=1#comic

I suppose you have a spammer shield, or something. Yeh.

And that is a problem. The people who don’t know it and blindly follow what they have been spoon-fed cause the violence. Well, not just them, people on both sides of the issue are crazy, but they give religion a bad name.

Again, English bibles are poorly translated at best. And it’s the only standing that crazies need to riot about something. “If God does hate abortion why would he create the possibility of still birth or miscarriages at all?” Why? http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=143&override=1#comic That should be answer enough.

The problem with that is spammers exploit you to pieces, but I suppose you are defended somehow.
