Soooooo, Jesus is married to the "church."
The "church" is the believers....WOMEN and MEN.
Then you think Jesus is in favor of multiple wives and gay marriage.
Once more you are inconsistant in your beliefs.
Think about it. Real hard.

I would love for more level-headed Christians to come in and speak against his views and methods. There have been some before, but not enough.

So much anger here.
I posted here before, but with others posting their own religious views I think I got lumped in with the "he's crazy!" crowd. Too much anger and name calling and circular arguments.

Then riddle us this. Since god didn't condemn those in multiple marriages, and in fact raised them up to be kings and founders of his "chosen people", does that mean that plural marriages are okay, so long as you don't get divorced?
After all, it seems Jesus just spoke about divorce - so you can have as many wives as you want, so long as you have them all at once.(I guess that is why there isn't a prohibition on lesbians - because if a guy married multiple women, he may want a group mating).

Your post makes it unclear as to where the anger is. If you meant my post, I assure you there was no anger there. If you meant here in the topic, there is some anger.
My goal is not to convert anyone, I do not expect that to happen. I do honestly hope that people read what I post and dwell on it a bit and possibly get something out of it if they are a religious person, but I understand that the views of most people are steadfast and most likely aren't changing any time soon.
If you read YAA's posts above yours, you get a basic idea of what he's like. He'll make a ridiculous claim such as: "Homosexuality leads to pedophilia. If you're willing to have sex with a big boy, you're willing to do it with a little one as well." Several people will then make rebuttals, and he'll cower, but not before going back to abortion and arguing against it. So no matter what you argue, it goes back to abortion and pedophilia.
That is precisely why I said there should be more level-headed Christians who come in. YAA's views are extreme, and people like him have the loudest voices because they shout over everyone else. They think they're right about everything and everyone else is wrong. Now, I may not be a Christian, but I don't think it's fair that he gets to be viewed as a representative of that religion.
There have been plenty of Christians who came in and stated they were against bible study in public schools (and showed empathy in the process) and stated that YAA's views do not reflect their own.
To be blunt, YAA is a paranoid bigot who thinks that homosexuals are trying to control him through television, government, schools, and abduct our children to sell them as sex slaves, and that lying, God-hating liberal atheists are trying to destroy religion. And he says he's the one who is open-minded because of his views and everyone else's is closed. Do you understand the problem here?
It's more an attempt to show why his radical views are wrong, which several people here have done innumerable times, and yet he won't accept evidence that shows why he's wrong. That displays the inability to learn.

If you had stopped after "Bible", you would have been fine.. but the inclusion of "and some of what I read elsewhere!" leads me to believe you're Mormon or Jehovah's Witness?
Possibly Catholic, as, if I'm not mistaken, they have "additions" to the Bible.
So, what denomination are you?

I've talked to you before...
"How stupid" , "Ye of lil understanding"
You've said once before, that only people in a building named "Church of Christ" was going to Heaven!
Do you still believe the "Building" makes the difference?
Or that Christ can call anyone to Himself?
Blessings to you, and your's :-)

The building is just that.. a stone structure. The body of Christ, it's members, are the Church. Christ calls everyone, but not everyone answers. That's why the world is filled with denominations: Baptists, Catholics, Mormons, Methodists, Jehovah Witnesses, et. al.
They teach a perversion of the Bible.
Roman's, Chapter 16, verse 16: "The churches of Christ salute you." - Does that tell you anything at all?
Baptists, the ones I've studied at least (and to understand and refute those who talk in error, you must study them) say you need only grace to be saved. Saved by grace, a recurring mantra in most Baptist churches, but nowhere in the Bible does it say such a thing.
Catholics.. pray to Mary. Why? She didn't die on the Cross for the remission of our sins. Matthew wrote of Jesus' words: Call no man your father, you have only one father, who is in Heaven. And yet, they call their priest's father. The Pope, the vicar of Christ, no call for that in the Bible.
Mormons.. have an "additional" teaching text, the Book of Mormon. Why? Everything needed to be saved was already within the Bible. Their founder, Joseph Smith says an angel came to him and spoke to him; complete nonsense.
This need, this uncontrollable urge, to add to God's word is leading people to a path of destruction. And one of the main reasons the atheists and agnostics point and laugh at anyone who claim to be in the faith. How can we expect anyone to listen to what we say, of our warnings, when even among those that believe in God, disagree.
You can no more say that homosexuals are the leading cause of pedophiles than I can say guns cause crimes. It's not the sinner we hate, but the sin. We love everyone, especially those who would laugh and persecute us, mock us with their words and actions. It is their sin I despise.
Take up your Bible and read it with an open heart and mind. Listen to what it tells you. It aches my heart to know that people will die that could have easily been saved, but what hurts even more is knowing that some of them that will die, will do so thinking they were right when they went to a denominational church.
I know some of you are going: What's it to you? Why worry about me? Just mind your own business. And I try and I will, because if you don't listen I can't do anything more for you.

Why do most people continue to use the Old Testament to prove their "the Bible is bad!" points?
