Most Christians are lying to themselves 2

I think most people who say they're Christians are actually just full of shit, and they wish they believed but deep down they really don't.
Here's why:
If I TRULY BELIEVED that Jesus came to earth and was the son of GOD and he told me to do something, I'd DO IT.
I wouldn't make pussy arguments about how "oh, I'm only human blah blah" then do whatever I wanted anyway and pray about it at church.
I'd be fucking perfect and I'd be a religious fundamentalist.

There are better ways to network than pretending to believe Jesus is God's only Son and he died on the cross to atone for our sins and was resurrected

What I dont understand is how can a loving all knowing god who doesn't make mistakes would be okay with letting people burn in hell for all of eternity for not being certain of his existance.
Or how if a baby isn't baptized they baby goes to hell because of original sin.
Or if god doesn't make mistakes then how is being gay an offense punishable by hell. If god doesn't make mistakes how are homos a mistake????

If Christians weren't lying to themselves, they would have to admit that the god they worship - you know, the one from the Bible - is a vain, jealous and vindictive psychopath. "Hey, Abe: kill your son to prove how much you love me... Ha.. Psych! But, seriously, if you ever think about another god I will punish you for eternity."

Well, it certainly is god's biggest concern apparently. Number one commandment. The first four are "me me me me" then he threw in "oh, yeah, don't lie or cheat on your wife, or kill anybody - unless your wife lies and cheats - then you can kill her."

if your god is true, you dont need commandments because you would naturally follow the path of Right(eous)ness
(not saying it has to be specifically a Abrahamic god, but it could be)

If you can believe that tall tale about a virgin and dead man rising from the dead they got you. Its like this, give them the most rediculous bullshit to swallow and if they do then they are totally controlled and drones that will do anything for their superior power. Its like the army, they shave their head and make them do all that crap then they're owned. If someone will shave their head and train to die for their superior then they are pwned their their superior power. Religion makes drones easier to manage as such.

I put my faith in humans and technology.
I doubt that god is real, but honestly I just don't even worry about it.
If I die and there really is a god and he damns me to hell for not worshipping him even though I lived a good life and tried to not to do too many bad things then fuck him, I wouldn't want to kick it with him for eternity anyways.

oh come on, it's obvious that God did it. I mean, what kind of lady would lie to her husband about how she got pregnant even though they've never had sex? Some people are so cynical.

dude christianity is a frickin can of worms of interpretations.
i think the take home point is, like you said, even the son of god couldn't inspire people to do anything. people just want to get drunk.
you have to put people in debt and threaten their comfort to get them to do anything unselfish.

I will admit, the benefits of belonging to any church/group are pretty effing sweet. For starters, if you work in any kind of business, they will buy from you, simply because they know you. If you need help moving, they are there for you. If you call somebody up in the middle of the night with a crisis, they will console you.
