Ye of little faith? Yes, I have little faith in something that cannot be proven, nor disproven. Especially things as far-fetched as I've heard some Christians say. Sorry, I am heavily anti-Christian because they are too arrogant, and ignorant to other people's beliefs and feelings.
ALL written , historical, archelogical & prophetic evidence support the Bibles accuracy.

NOTHING has been found that defeats the wording of the Bible.

The Bible is FACT--PERIOD.

ANYTHING else that you have heard is propaganda or wishfull thinking.

And if you are so 'antiChristian' why bother celebrating Christ's birth?

OH THAT'S RIGHT--you need more balls

oh sorry--Bawls :roflmao2:
Damn skippy, son. Just drank my last bottle this morning((it's only 7 a.m.)) because we have ABSOLUTELY NO SODAS.... So it was either that or go caffieneless...... I have troubles waking up without caffiene.

And hey genius, I don't celebrate Christ's birth, because I don't believe he was ever born, and if he was, he was nothing more than me or you, thus not really needing of his birth being celebrated. If you knew much about your religion you'd know Christmas was NOT A CHRISTIAN HOLIDAY. It was PAGAN, einstein. It was "adapted"((or, as I like to say, stolen)), by the Christians. As you said YOURSELF, Christ wasn't born in the winter. Therefore, winter holidays do not celebrate Christ's birth.
Look what we have gone and done...turned a perfectly festive post into an arguement! Sorry Red...
Duh. EVERYONE knows you CANNOT state any type of opinion and/or debatable "fact"((yes, I used the word fact, but only to make Richard happy, seeing as you CANNOT PROVE THE BIBLE IS TRUE.)) on the internet without starting an argument. Cannot. You can't. Impossible.
i think all post regarding religion should not be posted as thay will start flames

and the current ones should be deleted ... just my 2 cents tho
Here's a better idea. We stop posting about religion....... ONLY, after we're done with this argument. :D

So Im immature...look at you dragging on the arguement when the rest of us are ready to be done with it....STFU your an annoying ass! Go get a life and quit arguing about religious difference over the interenet.

FYI to you : The Bible is a theory...it CANNOT be proven by ANYTHING that everything in the bible is true...so it is a theory.

Actually the Bible *IS* a fact. Everything all connects together perfectly, and just faith alone proves God's existence. I'll pray for something, and I WILL get an answer, it may not be what I want all the time, but I will get an answer either way, and not just dead silence. Some things happen, and some may say it's concicidence, but who do you think controls this coincidence. ;)

But yeah let's try to keep the debating down, so let my post be the end of the "God vs no God" debate. I will not allow the devil in this thread to change people's feelings of what the true meaning of Christmas is.

HA! I was that one man last year, but I finished Christmas shopping today. (I also found a great necklace that was US$2 cheaper than the tag said!) Avoid Wal-Mart at all cost near Christmas.


I hope the holidays treat everyone kindly. :)

<center> THE VISIT

With the Bible in hand into bed did I creep
To read a few chapters before going to sleep
As my eyelids grew heavy I heard a faint sound
I held onto the good book and turned around

I saw a slight movement come out of the night
I jumped with a start and was consumed with fright
In my room stood a figure menacing and tall
His motion was fluid like a shadow on the wall

He stared at me with two piercing eyes
and said "Put down the book, stop reading those lies
My master has sent me to get rid of this lark
I am an agent of Lucifer the prince of the dark
:evilsmile:

"I see you are reading in Genesis and Acts
More of God's ramblings, now here are the facts
Adam and Eve are a myth, they are God's fairy tale
Your ancestors were not human, you once had a tail

"Man was not created, it took many eons of time
You have really evolved from a minute piece of slime
I am known as the destroyer, and Apollyon is my name
Listen to my plans of destruction, the reason I came

"I will infiltrate your churches, and set up the stage
To replace the old time religion with mine the New Age
Forget God's Commandments, put your mind at ease
You can form your own destiny and do as you please

"Why bother with God when you are Number One
Your father's not in Heaven, he's in Washington
I will replace prayers with psychics and make astrology the craze
It will be the same as Babylon back in the good old days

"I will fill up the movies with sex, language and gore
Until is seems like the norm and the people want more
Then I'll bring it all in your homes and put it on TV
On daytime and prime time so the children can see

"Why believe in marriage and spending life with just one
There are many fish in the ocean and swinging is fun
Stop being so pious, it's square to be pure
Fear not the diseases for which there's no cure

"Feel free to party and partake of love's portion
And if pregnancy results, there's always abortion
It's not really a child, it's only a fetus that's dead
Let's kill off the children, and save the whales instead

"I took prayers out of the schools and brought condoms in
The kids won't know the difference of what's Holy and what's sin
I'll keep the prisons overflowing and justice from the courts
Your streets will be a war zone, your homes will be forts

"Do not believe in the Holy Spirit as the One who is just
Instead of looking for angels, try some angel dust
I will peddle narcotics in the cities and hills
Talking to me is so easy, just pop a few pills

"I will print porno of all sorts and send it through the mail
The courts will allow it, we'll keep it upscale
The commercials and ads will revolve around sex
Until infidelity and rape become a reflex

"I will set up your lifestyle so both parents must work
While in gangs and on the streets their children will lurk
Families will break up, the divorce rate will be high
I'll make money a problem and all it can buy

"You will need alcohol and pills to relieve all your stress
Your mind will be a wasteland for my demons to possess
I will take away your morals and your work ethics too
I will subdue my enemy -- and my enemy is you"

When he finished his tirade he kept leering at me
I was now full of rage but had to agree
The things that he talked about were now taking place
His ultimate goal is to destroy the human race

I felt a strength come from within, I lost all sense of fear
This devil cannot hurt me, the Holy Spirit is here
My body is God's Temple, and I will not let it be soiled
For greater is He that's in me than he that's of the world

Still holding the Bible I opened the good book
To Revelation chapter 20, hey devil, take a look
An angel is going to bind Satan and throw him in a pit
And for one thousand years that's where he'll sit

He's then removed from the pit and thrown into a fire-filled pool
Where he will burn for eternity to pay for his misrule
He will experience the ultimate pain with the rest of his crew
When this happens to your boss, where does that leave you?

Now what's that you said, the Bible is God's fairy tale?
Listen to me now, devil, some facts I will unveil
The Bible is the true word of God and I can prove it to you
By all His fulfilled prophecies and the existence of the Jew


God said many times He would return His people to their land
And it's happening right now, don't you understand
For twenty-five hundred years, His people had to roam
Now they're coming back to Israel, back to their home

Many times has the world tried to kill off the Jew
But they have survived their enemies, does that give you a clue?
God said "I will make an end of all nations among which I scattered you"
Now tell me, devil, what has happened to Persia, Assyria and Babylon too?

Where is Edom and Moab and Ammon today?
The Philistines have vanished, what more can I say
Many countries that suppressed the Jews no longer exist
This is a fact that cannot be dismissed

But Israel is still here and as strong as before
Far outnumbered by their enemies yet they win every war
They became a nation again, back in May of '48
God foretold this in Isaiah chapter 66 verse 8

The Lord picked the Jews as His chosen race
And after thousands of years they survived by His grace
No other country of people have a history that long
How can such a tiny nation be so powerfully strong?

Many prophecies in the Bible predicted the coming of Christ
About His birth and His life and that He'd be sacrificed
Over fifty prophecies on Jesus and all of them fulfilled
You look a little sick, devil, how come you're not thrilled?

Archaeology has proven the Bible with findings of long ago
From the city of Babylon to the walls of Jericho
The stone of Pontious Pilate and the scrolls of the Dead Sea
The letters of Lachish and the obelisk of Shalmaneser III

The Cyrus Cylinder and the tombstone of Uzziah
The Assyrian king records and the tunnel of Hezekiah
Hey what's the matter, devil, now you don't look so tall
If all this is not enough, how about the Western Wall?


As I continued my rebuttal, I saw the devil start to weaken
He had no answers for me, I could see he was beaten
I looked him square in the eyes and applied the final thrust
I knew the following words would turn him to dust

I rebuke you, evil one, be gone from my sight
You may be from the darkness but I am a child of the light
You think you can enter my home and do anything that pleases
Get out of here devil -- in the name of Jesus


His cry was a shrill, more like a scream
He disappeared from sight, it was all a bad dream
I looked out the window and saw the sunlight
Good riddance to you, you prince of the night

Now I warn all of you, I'm sounding the alarm
Do not shake hands with Satan, you will lose your right arm
He roams the streets like a lion looking for prey
He will be the prince of this world until the Lord's Day


But the Lord's Day is at hand and Satan's running out of time
He knows when Jesus returns, he'll pay for his crime
The final combat is coming and friends I'm not kidding
Get on the Lord's side now before the Battle of Armageddon

Many prophecies have been fulfilled in the last fifty years
That lead to the end times and it certainly appears
With the increase in earthquakes, pestilence, famine and war
This generation may see Jesus as written in Matthew twenty-four

Look around you my friends and see what's going on today
Parents ignoring their children and children who disobey
The profanity and violence and the moral decay
All this belongs to Satan, this is not the Lord's way

Turn your life over to Jesus, let your flesh be slain
To free you from sin, He went through suffering and pain
To spend eternity in Heaven should be your full-time quest
Remember the years here on earth are only a test

Turn your life over to Jesus, I'll say it again
I'll shout it over the mountains and through every glen
The Lord will be judging all sinners and those who backslide
And believe me, my friends, there's no place you can hide

Stop and listen, good people, He is calling to you
To put off the old and to put on the new
To bring Jesus in your life and be freed of Satan's snare
Just say the following words from this simple prayer:

"Lord Jesus, Lord Jesus, come into my heart
Wash away my sins, give me a new start
Your are the Son of the Living God, I give my life to you
Fill me with your presence, with a spirit that's new"

That's all it takes to bring Jesus in your life
To get rid of Satan's yoke and all of the strife
If you say this with meaning, then His Presence you'll feel
The Holy Spirit will be there, and you'll be under His seal :angelic: </center>

THE CHURCH OF NATIVITY, BETHLEHEM, ISRAEL

This Church is considered to be built over the place of Christ's birth. This Church was built by Queen Helena in 329AD. The church is built above a cave which may have been the place of Christ's birth. The cave has a star embossed unto the floor which represents the place of Christ's birth. Within the church there is a recessed area on the right which marks the place where the manger stood.</center>
