to people who say that they believe whatever the bible tells them...

so basically if the bible says go jump off a cliff you will? if it says kill your mother or hate G-d you would? do have a problem with thinking for yourself or something? i just think that is stupid. you must have reasons other than just becasue the bible tells you. you must have a brain and be able to think for yourself...

personally i am jewish and i believe in the torah but i have my own resons for believing and disbaliving what it says. i does not believe everything, which do not make me any less faithful.

why do you "just" believe. don't you need some personal reasoning and what is it?

thats pretty interesting considering that nowa days its politically correct to not offend muslims, buddhists, and other religions but its alright to shutup the christians. its ok to offend and make us look stupid right? isnt that the reason why this thread was made? every single thread about religion is against only christians. why dont you make threads asking my buddhists, muslims, and any other religion why they believe in what they do? why do they only follow their holy books? seems to me Christians are being attacked..and we're very alone



I agree, i thought it was only me that people were attacking christians and im not even christian myself. "why do people believe what the bible tells them" well... "Why do jewish people believe what the torah tells them?" For the same reason. They choose to believe.

no. i am merley saying that most christians just belive that becaus eit is "G-ds" book that it is automattically right. I have MY own reasons for believing or disbeliving CERTAIN things in the torah, not like most christians. MOST chritians think that if you dont believe all you cant believe any. i am just saying that you should think for yourselves instead of just saying "the bible says".


You said it for yourself, you believe in certain things in the torah for your own reason. People believe things in the bible for their own reason. How does your reasoning make you less mindless than people who have reasons to believe in the bible? You're just assuming christians don't have reasoning behind their beliefs. How about you assume that since im asian i eat rice or that i'm short.
