20 Reasons to Abandon Christianity

[4dmin]

#1- Name a place where slavery is still allowed today.

umm i can name two right off hand the africa and the middle east

#3- My point wasn't that something happened or it didn't, it was that because someone did it doesn't mean his/her RELIGION condoned it or preached it was right.

ummm ok, like i stated the catholic church has known for 100's of years their priest have been molesting young boys... i'm guessing that is the burden of the individual not the church? :jerkit:

what does the sin of other people from generations ago have to do with my choices now?

do you not believe you are born in sin? and why are we born in sin? ok then, so my point is valid you have to live every day w/ the sins of past generations.

This is true. Not only have they been molesting boys but women as well. Abraham Lincoln was involved in a court proceeding where he acted as defense lawyer for a priest who TRIED to blow the whistle on the sexual abuses of women/children by other priests. The response of the church? They paid a woman to say she was "molested" by the whistle blower in an attempt to destroy his character and credibility.

The problem is though is that this has nothing to do with true Christianity. The roman catholic church is not a Christian entity but masquerades as one. It makes up its own nonsensical teachings/dogma by its own "authority" and does not submit to Scriptural principles and/or teachings. Its even so presumptious to think that God must "act" upon its "authority".
Nothing related to its behaviour/history should surprise you.
