"IF GOD WAS REAL WHY DO BAD THINGS HAPPEN"
If you studied the Christian religion, there is "free will" were humans can do what they want. |

We read the Bible because:
- It tells us about our faith and God - It tells us how to get to heaven - It is a good morale teacher |

Speaking in PHILOSOPHY!!!
Bad isn't an entity, it's the lack of Good
like Cold and Heat, Cold doesn't exist, it's just lack of heat |

Remember, kids, if your wife cheats on you, it's perfectly okay to stone her to death. |

No there won't. People will just find a new way to hate each other. |

the bible is absolutely among the worst moral standards i have ever seen are you simply ignoring the dozens of laws about executions, adultery, ect?
stoning unruly children at the corner of town is not a moral concept. it is the absurd brutality you can expect from sexist, racist bronze-age israelite shepards who wrote the hebrew mythos known as the torah, or old testament. |

hatred is fear applied to ignorance. we can solve ignorance with education. |

>"If you studied the Christian religion, there is "free will" where humans can do what they want."
What if there was a criminal who pulled a gun and forced you to do something? He is taking away your free will.
So God has a choice here, he can allow the criminal to take away your free will, or he can take away the criminal's free will and stop him to allow you to keep your own. Either decision God makes, one of you will lose your free will. However, God decides to allow the criminal to keep his free will and you to lose yours.
Therefore, God favors the criminals and those who sin. |

| Prejudice is a word that isn't synonymous to hatred for a reason. People don't have to listen to the people trying to educate them. |

The part with the most "violence" is teh Old Testament, and the first 5 books of it are also teh Jewish Torah.
There will always be hate, it is human nature.

| And the Bible IS real. It's a tangible object. The beliefs stated in the Bible are what you're targeting, not the object itself. |

It is a record of past events. Back in the 1800's, they found an ancient stone that verified a Bible event. However, a tribe in the Middle East destroyed it, because they thought it was gold, because of how much the Europeans liked it |

- It tells us about our faith and God ______________________________
and how does that apply to non-christians? do you even know what faith is?
- It tells us how to get to heaven ______________________________
lol, arguably... the thousands of denominations of the christian faith have been bickering and fighting over their interpretation of the vague and self-contradictory new testament since its conception. they cant even agree on what order the books were written or who wrote them, much less what they say of salvation.
- It is a good morale teacher ______________________________
absolutely not.
