      Is god tolerant....or not?

      Oaky, this is a question that rose up when my friend and I were talking on the bus.

      Okay, I've read and heard that God is a tolerant person, loving everybody. And then, people are all like "yada yada.. God hates homos" and other mean things about other people?

      Which way is it, is he tolerant to other beliefs andsuch, or not?

      Well shellyboof bishop isn't going to let you over-egg this pudding!

      I'm not christian, so I don't even believe in God. But if he did... I find him a very intolerant person.


      But that's not why I came here for. I'm sure there'll be christians who are gonna post he actually is tolerant. Then my question (which I think is more important that 'is he tolerant?') is this:

      WHY does he condemn homos, nonbelievers, etc.? WHY can't we? WHY is it so bad/evil?


      I think I know the answer already... But let's just hear it from them...

      Yea, it doesn't make any sense since he would have a) created homosexuals and b) would have created other faiths.

      I was raised Catholic, but I'm not really anything now. I don't believe in quite anything, but to put it more plainly, I don't give ten fucks whose pulling the strings up there.

      The Catholic Church is so contradictory, because they say to treat everyone equal, and we are ALL God's "children", yet exclude homosexuals and other minorities. It's a bunch of politics that I find have no place in a Church. That being said, they all look like a bunch of babbling morons.

      Amen, Amazeo, lol.

      And, Seis, your right, but I bet I know what Catholics or something to say. They'd say "The Lord put them on this green Earth as an obstacle that the believers have to overcome! And by the way, Global Warming is fake!" Lol XP

      As that example proves there is alot of intolerance in the bible, it just depends whether those words are the words of God or not. Although obviously if we throw those paragraphs out as not being from the teachings of God then we can't exactly trust anything else in there either.

      Very solid proof, RooJ! Everyone works on the Sabbath Day! Damn, even religious people do, does that mean that they don't believe either?

      SO anyone who works on Sunday must die? So we should be forced to relax?

      "If triangles had a God, it would have three sides"

      In other words, what 'God' is and what he likes/dislikes is all dependent on the person. So a bigoted person who believes in a God will most likely declare that God hates everybody he hates (maybe not out loud, but the correlation is there), whilst a more moderate/liberal believer will believe in a much more tolerant God.

      So much for absolute truth...

      With all the killing people were expected to do i often wonder whether they'd look at the "thou shalt not kill" command and get confused.

      Maybe God is gay and is struggling with the fact that he cannot admit it to himself. That is usually the case with people who militantly hate homosexuals, and I can't think of a more militant example than somebody who uses eternal torture as a punishment for being gay. Hmmm...

      Hahaha...wait, to be gay you have to lust over men (if you are a man yourself)
      Does that mean God feels lust?
      If he lusts over men, and humans are men, and humans are His children....that makes Him a pedophile!

      That must put the PaedoBear above God... because if God is a paedo, then he must have been approved by the PaedoBear!
