Family disowns son after he chooses to change religion. Isn't that exactly what your organisation does?

-Removed-I did not critise any religion I merely mentioned what happened and you in your ardour to teach me nothing did exactly that. I have nothing to gain from corresponding with you absolutely nothing and will refrain from doing so until you have something worth reading.

-Removed-But aren't members of ANY organized religions hypocrites at their heart? All of them pretending they are following a real god when 100% of ALL of those religions are following man made god's in the first place?
Pretending all this bullshyte came from a god who happens to have human attributes? Like 'I am a jealous god'?
How stupid do you think people are to believe such rot?
Oh wait, I forgot, that rot has already duped about 2 billion people.
A GREAT illustration of the intelligence of the human race.
Yeah, a god who can make entire frigging UNIVERSES would be JEALOUS of humans? Sure, it could happen. Maybe on Saturday Night Live but not in the REAL universe.

Originally posted by RJHindsRight. A god who can make UNIVERSES jealous of humans. Let your god come down and tell me that, till then it is just another religious scam, among many.
