CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Since it your assertion that the historical accounts are false then prove that they are false and hearsay. (By the way, Hearsay is when the first person reporting it had no direct experience of it. So your argument is invalid.)
I am merely repeating words from the Bible so shout at God, not at me.

Exactly......and it is your god who supposedly makes the JUDGEMENT as to whether or not you have "repented".....thank you for helping to make my point.
So why do you worship it....?

All the books of the Bible were written decades, in some cases centuries, AFTER the people they are describing.....they are therefore hearsay accounts.....someone told someone else about what they were told happened...

Not sure on the details. But even if he's a Satanist, he still believes in God. So the suggestion that he is angry at something he doesn't think exists is specious at best.

It was a while ago, it may have been that she became a christian because He hated The God of the Bible, that may be more accurate. REgardless, it's a true story.

Post solid evidence please that the books were not written within the life time of the followers of Christ and those that were with Christ.

because I wan't to be saved from hell, for one. And secondly I have grown fond of my Lord in a relationship with Him.....have grown to love Him one step at a time. But it is a free gift, but you have to open it in faith. For one, faith in Him. But then again there are those false conversions. Gotta watch out for those.

Death isn't an emotion, but fear of death is rather a big driver for survival, wouldn't you say?

there is biblical evidence of heaven and hell....
well your biblical counterpart would be called an annihilationist, so here is a link refuting that with point counterpoint....
Annihilationism: An Unbiblical Doctrine
with verses such as:
# Mark 9:43-8 (cf. Is. 66:24)
If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out. And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell. And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell, where "'their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.'
