They threw it away? Really?! At least give the toy back to your friend, dude.
I remember when my mom pulled this shit. A friend let me borrow his dungeons and dragons book. My
mom thought it was satanic and threw it away.
That thing cost 50 fucking bucks.

Seriously!
"Hey Billy, do you like Warrior Wizard?"
"My mom said he was a tool of Satan and that I made Jehova sad when I played with him."
"... Wow. That's really weird Billy. Can I have him back now?"
"Mom made me throw him away."
"... WHAT? Dude, I was just letting your borrow it! You can't just throw it away! Now the playset
will be incomplete!"
"Mom said playsets are a tool of Satan, too. I forgot why."
"Your mom is the reason we arn't friends anymore."
And then Billy is left friendless and ostracized until he goes off to a college that shares his
exact brand of religious weirdness, because he found out the hard way that Catholic High School
is not the same thing as his mother's personal brand of God-fearing.
Whole life made strange and complicated over a wizard toy.
Thanks mom.

something i never got about religion:
god is almighty, omnipotent and omnipresent and he loves his children with infinite forgiveness
and love.
but if you forget or refuse to do even 1 of the tons of rules imposed on a book written thousands
of years ago he'll smite you and make you burn in suffering for eternity.

I was raised as a Jehovah's witness, and this sums up my experience personally. The entire
religion feels like a cult because of the way they brainwash you. First of all, witnesses don't
refer to their beliefs as a religion, They refer to it as "the truth". For instance, when asked
if you are "in the truth", you are being asked if you're a Jehovah's witness. I believe this is a
way to subliminally place your loyalty with their church. They also don't call their churches
"churches", and will get offended if you refer to them as anything other than a congregation.
They claim they are not a religion, but "followers of god".

Second, They discourage association with anyone that's not a witness. They will tell you that the
whole world is controlled by satan, and that by associating with "worldly people" (that's
seriously what they call people not in the church) you put yourself at risk for being brainwashed
by satan (ironic huh?). They also have a very strict set of rules, (no drugs, premarital
relations(any kind, even oral), stealing, etc) and if you break any of them, you are
automatically "disfellowshiped" meaning no one in the church will look/talk to you until you
offer a public apology.
There's a lot more I want to type, mostly about their hypocrisy/craziness on some things like
pokemon cards being demonic, and birthday parties being rooted in pagan customs, but I don't have
the time right now. Sorry for the rant, but thanks for posting, I'll share it with my witness
cousin.

Well Old Testament God sure. Post-Jesus its mostly about forgiveness, so as long as you
/actually/ feel bad about breaking a commandment its okay and you get to go to heaven. Old
Testament God did lots of screwing around with people and required sacrifices to make up for how
shit humanity is at not sinning.

Dont forget that he knows everything, and he has a plan meaning that
case 1: What ever you do is a part of it, meaning most of us are pre-destined for hell because
it's his plan for us not to obey
case 2: He knew way before you that you would disobey, but still sends you to hell
case 3: We have free will to follow his plan or not, but he made desert people scribble it down
2k years ago with no way to share it with the world until like 1.6k years later. leaving several
million years of people just burning in hell for never knowing about it

The Bible says, "The truth about God is known to them instinctively. God has put this knowledge
in their hearts. From the time the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky and all
that God made. They can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature.
So they have no excuse whatsoever for not knowing God" (Romans 1:19-20, New Living Translation).
No one has an excuse for not knowing God. That knowledge comes to us naturally—much like the way
we instinctively reach for water when we're thirsty. It's not something we have to learn.
And it's not just instinct that draws people to God. God uses visual aids too—his creation. We
can see God through the divine design of nature.

the several million burning to hell thing, that's been justified when Jesus died to the cross. By
the time Jesus risen from Hell, he lifted the souls of those righteous enough from Hell as well.
so some people before Jesus' time were saved
at least that's what this pamphlet says

When someone responds to these instincts and "visual aids" and truly reaches out to God, God will
make sure that person understands his or her need for Christ. God, who loves us beyond
comprehension and wants everyone to go to heaven (2 Peter 3:9), will arrange the details for that
person to know the gospel—through a missionary, a tract, a Bible, whatever.
You might think, But what if a missionary never visits that island, or a tract never falls into
those hands. What then? If those things never happen, we can be assured that God, who is loving
and just, is still in control. God is sovereign, and he will always do what is right.

God is an awesome God, and nothing will stop him from getting the good news to even the most
remote parts of the world, "to the ends of the earth" (Acts 1:8). And as if to prove it, God even
gave John a glimpse of heaven, where he saw people "from every tribe and language and people from
every nation" (Revelation 5:9).
The bottom line: God is obviously able to reveal the truth about himself to anyone, anywhere. But
he often uses us to do it. That's why Jesus' last words to us were instructions to tell everyone,
everywhere, the good news of God's love (Matthew 28:19-20).

That's a very nice copypasta, but the only case you disputed was people not knowing of god. Which
was just a statement from the bible.
Can you prove that these things in the bible are true, and not just statements about a God,
written down by ordinary, natural people?

Of course not, people who follow the teachings in the bible and believe them do so based on faith.
Let me help you out.
faith
noun:
1. complete trust or confidence in someone or something.
synonyms: trust, belief, confidence, conviction;
antonyms: mistrust
2. strong belief in God or in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual apprehension rather
than proof.

Because you alter your life to fit a reality that isn't real. If your belief is going to have any
weight then you have to show it through actions. Maybe it affects how you vote. Maybe it affects
how you react to thing. If belief is not grounded in actual evidence, then it is irrational. If
your belief is irrational and it affects how you act, then the part of your actions and reactions
that are grounded in your belief are irrational aswell.
I dont think that irrationality is an inherently good thing, and that it can lead to unnecasery
bad things because it can be avoided
