Christianity Is Bullshit

I wouldn't have thought this was even worth discussing, but apparently there are a good amount of Christians in this forum.
I say that Christianity just another made up religion that is only prevalent today due to Constantine making it the religion of the Roman Empire to gain more control over his subjects.

this is a never ending argument in my opinion. I find the people trying to disprove any religion or parts of a religion the same kind of fanatics as those defending a religion. People just need to stop dividing themselvs.

You dont believe. So what? Are you here just to make people feel bad? What is your purpose? A christian will not read your post and be converted to atheism.
What if you looked at it differently. What if christianity was still prevalent because the subjects of the roman empire lead happier and healthier lives which included kindness and forgiveness?
Your not the first one to talk about religion as a tool for controlling the masses. People know about this idea and still they believe. That means something.

Yeah, that despite the obvious controlling nature of the church these individuals are still such weak and scared sheep that they won't relinquish their adult safety blanket Jesus Christ. Heaven forbid they think for themselves.

Agreed, but everyone needs a crutch and if faith works for them and they leave me the fuck alone with their self righteousness then I'm all for it. We're all mentally ill to some extent, I'd say if you weren't mentally off balance from this world then there's probably something wrong with you...

Does the constitution of the United States mean nothing to you because it was created by someone else?

I'm not stoned actually, you can't use that as a way of denying my comprehensibility to the fact that you didn't make a point.
I don't have any greens right now.

I got his point too, but if he's not going to even argue it so I can shoot it down I'll just have to try and goad it out of him. It's a slow Sunday...
