Until you understand that the Bible was written and religion created to control people—nothing will change.

Religion is the earliest form of propaganda.

I don't believe you know what the definition of religion is

What religion should be, is professed to be and what it is and used for are very different things. There are religions of war.

Re: The Bible Is A Lie
The fallacy that if you don’t believe in the Bible, than you don’t believe in God, is untrue. If you don’t believe in the Bible, than your version of God is untrue, is also a fallacy. This is wrong. Hard for many to admit since they believe their “version” of God is the best. Isn’t that what religion is?

God is in all of us. He is not a trickster, does not talk in parables, or riddles. God only speaks the truth. The truth is simple. The truth is there for everyone to believe. I’m not sure why some believe it is more complicated than this. God does not confuse. Sadly, there are many that try to confuse, but they are not God.

You don’t need a religion, a church, a preacher or a book on your nightstand to understand God. God is always with you.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 85442633


Sorry to burst your bubble, but your response clearly shows your relationship with God is not what you think it is. God is not a hater, he does not wish Satan on anyone. Your version of God resembles the Roman version of God. Do you really believe that God is some man in the sky waiting to pass judgement on everyone? Do you really believe that if someone has not read the bible God will condemn them?

Perhaps it this exact reason why many choose to believe in their God and not the hateful one that is in many religions.

Re: The Bible Is A Lie
They aren't riddles.

They are parables and analogies.

Now try it again and see if it doesn't make more sense.

I think there are lies in the Bible, mostly having to do with who is chosen and who is not and where they came from and who they became.

But the mysticism and spiritual lessons remain intact.

It's like someone is trying to give you a Ferrari and you won't take the keys.

Too much car, for you?
 Quoting: The_Meridian


Even so if you want to make them into analogies and allegories, they still mostly don’t make moral or spiritual sense to me. Some do, many do not.

There are other more current sacred books, spiritualist and new age teachings, that are much easier to find the good parts because the good parts exist throughout, not just here and there. They make more moral and ethical sense than does the Old or New Testament.

It would be better if thousand year old bibles were simply discarded and replaced by more enlightened teachings rather than re-labeled as allegory, because allegory and parable doesn’t change the moral point of the story or how erroneously God and life after death is portrayed in them.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 85462916


I’ve chosen to believe in a different version of God than the one in the bible or religion. Does this make me bad? Does it make me wrong? I don’t think I am a bad person, I follow my heart and am kind.

I just can’t see myself using God as an excuse to hate or harm others—ever. I don’t believe that is God. That’s the “trickster”, and the “trickster” isn’t God.

You've never been to an American church obviously. Sunday school topics include: Hate, racial purity, victim blaming, scapegoating, hoarding, money swindling. These are the tenets of American Christianity.

The priests are incestors youth pastors are pedophiles deacons are adulterers. It's a camp of filth and manipulation and broken cyclic promises that make people who actually listen to the nonsense waste their lives waiting on the world they've been instructed to hate to burn up in glorious vengeance.

Yep, and that’s the problem. Those using Christianity like this are wrong. Those using anything like this are wrong. That said if a religion is used for good than more power to it. A gun can be used for good or bad. It can be used to protect or harm. A religion can be used for good or bad. America is about profit and fear.

The Bible isn’t a lie, it’s a collection of stories written by a j’person controlled by Roman interests to instill fear in you and make you behave. It was one of the most significant advancements in the control of populations. No longer did you need 1 soldier for every 2 people—instead you could control the minds of men and thereby control their actions.

Modern advancements in propaganda make the bible look like child’s play. Imagine convincing masses to take experimental medication, fear going outside unless they wear a mask, mutilate their bodies with the hope of changing genders…

Re: The Bible Is A Lie
PsyOps, short for Psychological Operations, refers to a form of propaganda or information warfare aimed at influencing the beliefs, emotions, and behavior of a target audience. It involves the use of various tactics and techniques to shape the perceptions and attitudes of individuals or groups, usually in a way that supports the objectives of the organization or government conducting the operation.

PsyOps can take many forms, including the dissemination of false information or rumors, the use of visual or audio media to create an emotional response, and the manipulation of social media platforms to shape public opinion. The ultimate goal of a psyops campaign is to influence the behavior of the target audience in a way that benefits the operator, whether it be to gain support for a particular policy, undermine the credibility of an opposing group or nation, or to promote a particular ideology.

While psyops can be effective in achieving these goals, they are often controversial and can be viewed as a form of psychological manipulation. Additionally, the use of psyops by governments or organizations may be seen as unethical or even illegal in some cases, particularly if they involve the dissemination of false or misleading information.
