    That is the main reason for HIV.

    Anyways, you specifically said CHRISTIANITY KILLS PEOPLE not the Pope Kills People.

    I just recently stood in front of a mall with a protest group that hat signs which said: "Christianity kills people" with a picture of an african child infected with HIV.... I am still not in prison, so wrong

    Yeah, that evil sinners should stop fucking all the time and all would be good! Like christianity tolds us, no sex until you are married. It is their fault alone taht they are dying. Stupid sinners! As we all know, pregnancy before marriage is MUCH lower in countries with more faith, because god and the church demands it.... or is it?

    Seriously, you are a dumb ass. You give a source that quotes Genesis in theire answer. Freaking GENESIS! The book that contradicts itself in the first two chapters. (But I am sure that you will find an apolegetics article which twists the text until they can say that Genesis 2 is just a more precise edit etc.... ya, sure....)

    Please, do not post again, I can not stand the degree of stupidity!

    EDIT:
    I since allready stated MULTIPLE times that I meant that the POPE sends them to theire doom. And yes, those signs are designed controversial on purpose. But again, I will not talk with you again until you at least try to consider anything except crap from "godandscience.org" or even worse Answers on Genesis. Educate yourself, for the love of god! (as Matt Dillahunty would say: "You are done!") End of discussion.

    That is mainly Catholicism, you are blaming. You do realize most Catholics and Christians don't agree with the Pope.
    *that*
    1) You are calling a 13 year old a dumbass when you are what? 30? (Immaturity)
    2) Any need for calling someone a dumbass because they disagree with you?
    Why does it matter?
    I can't stand the way you would talk to a 13 year old like that. Again, HOW OLD ARE YOU?
    *Already*
    *Their*
    No you said Christianity.
    Educate myself? At least I can spell, defend myself, and argue for a 13 year old. You want another fucking site well here it is.

    I was always told that if you don't agree with the pope your not catholic, And that's the one thing I never liked about christianity to be honest Everyone has this werid belief that they don't need to accept the entire bible, Or follow all of their religions creeds and what not because * God is a all forgiving being* Or somthing like that, I mean seriously When I turned to satanism at 14, Most of the christians where I lived didn't even celebrate lent or go to church every sunday but dam they were quick to bash gays and tell me and athiests we were going to hell, the way I view it is if you can't accept the * Word of god* Or the bible in its entirety the way it is then why even bother calling your self a christian ?, Your obviously sinning when you go against god's and his prophets words.

    exodus 35:2
    If you work on sunday you must be killed.
    Six days work shall be done, but on the seventh day you shall have a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the Lord. Whoever does any work on it shall be put to death.

    Isaiah 14:21 : if your dad was a sinner you are a sinner and therefore must be killed.
    Make ready to slaughter his sons for the guilt of their fathers; Lest they rise and posses the earth, and fill the breadth of the world with tyrants.

    Deuteronomy 17:12:
    Hell it even says if you don't listen to priests you need to be killed:

    Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the priest who represents the LORD your God must be put to death. Such evil must be purged from Israel.

    But anyway back on topic, What the link you gave fails to mention though is that this is a very contagious disease, it only takes one person to be infected to spread it, Sex had somthing to do with the spread obviously but since the area is so poor as well, they Lack proper education to learn about the disease and how it is spread.

    http://ngonewsafrica.org/archives/4095 Quote
    "While some communities believe HIV is as a result of witchcraft and curse, others claim it can be cured after having sex with a person who has the albinism condition. "

    So due to a mixture of misconception's and poverty Aids can easily be spread Especially when the mother's in the area usually breastfeed, due to the lack of formula and bottlefeeding.

    I'm sorry if people mistreated you for your beliefs. Really sorry if people acted with all that arrogance. But look at the time period these Old Testamant verses was written... The victor usually killed or enslaved everyone in war. The Jews were just returning the favor.
    Lastly, in Christianity, everyone is a sinner. You can't be perfect, period.

    Yeah, what kind of message of peace and love is that exactly? Supposedly his perfect creation was full of sin, and we inherited it just by being born human. Fucked up if you ask me.

    Supposedly all of the universe was created by an all powerfull, all mighty and unfailable beeing, so I assumed that his creation is also perfect.
    And you sure can believe what you want, I will call you out on it if its stupid though!

    Why is it that an atheist is just as likely to be hateful towards people for their beliefs as a religious zealot? How 'bout you all just live and let live.

    Maybe because fallibility is perfection, or he/she/it just felt that having imperfect beings was just more interesting.

    I am told since I abondanded catholicism that I am an abomination that will burn in hell. Believe me, I am being very polite in comparison.

    @Coexistance
    God is sure loving, so much to be exact, he created you as an evil sinner that should burn forever and ever. Except for when you obey him with no questions asked, than he will kindly spare you such a fate. Man he is a great guy isn't he?

    No I am not. You do realize that God didn't actually write the Bible (Big Shocker) but it was interpreted by man. I interpret the Bible differently than you do. You are the first Satanist I have ever talked to.
    The Old Testament was written by Jews and their Sabbath day is from the Sundown of Friday to the Sundown of Saturday.
    The Jews of that time weren't very "nice" to others. Most Jews who wrote the stories of the Old Testament are religious zealots.
    Said already before above.
    That was the only part in that post you made that I agree with.
