You’re not meek enough.

All religions have been shaped by people to fit what they want, which is usually power. CofE decided Rome was greedy and so broke away. The Archbishop of Canterbury and the rest now live in big posh houses whilst his followers struggle to pay the bills.
Me? I'm still waiting to inherit the earth

Arch of Canterbury has a boss too though. The Queen is the head of the Anglican Church.
She’s not doing too bad for herself either, is she?

At least she hands out some dosh on a Thursday, I think it's only once a year but it helps with the fuel bills.

A friend of mine joined an evangelical church in the midlands, all was going fine until they sent him details of how he can pay his tithe......15% of his earnings.
Cheeky cunts

Well I don’t believe it so you’re preaching to the choir, so to speak.

I just always find it funny when people are quoting the Torah on questions of morality to Christians.

The Old Testament is as Christian as it is Jewish. The bible bashers love to revel in the damnation of all but them. How moral is that. How moral is even Jesus saying if you don’t love and believe in him
You burn for eternity? How moral is it that he endorsed Slavery and basically said no matter how bad your master is you need to respect him? Both books and characters are complete immoral and show anybody that no being capable of creating everything would be so petty and vindictive.

Blessed are the cheesemakers is not meant to be taken literally, It refers to any manufacturers of dairy products.

You know what, I am more a believer than most on here.

If I am to become a believer, which one should I choose.

Let's face it the list is almost endless.

 

[Marklr]

This is how conversations go with everyone online that doesn’t know what they’re talking about.

Oh...so sorry for insulting your higher intellect and knowledge. It's religion, mate...all bullshit. Many Christians follow the OT.

That is a decision only you can make. Equally, you are free to choose to be an atheist. I am not in the business of telling people what to believe.

Well if you wont tell me how will I know? I need a sign, a vision if you like, something that tells me what to believe.
It's like that vicar that was lying in bed one night when he heard 'Mark, Mark' He thought, that's my name, whose calling me? He turned on the light but there was no one there, again though he heard 'Mark Mark.'
Lord is that you calling me he asked.
'Mark Mark'.... it was coming from outside so the Vicar knew, the lord wanted him, he was calling him. He was so excited. He threw open the window and shouted Lord, Lord it is Mark, I am here to do your calling......
Only it wasn't the Lord calling him, it was a dog with a hair lip.



What?

Is that net or gross ?

 

[bluemoon32]

Take home pay.
I wasn't sure if he said 10 or 20%, hence me saying 15%.
Tried to talk to him today about it but because i was very scathing about the whole thing he's now blanking me.
Up to him, it's his life, if he wants to be a silly **** and pay for his ministers new car or nice holidays then that's his business i suppose.
