A thread is started on an increase in suicides.Immediately you blame that on atheism.

No God More Suicide - US Suicide Rate Increases 24%

Well, Jeff I don't say that this pastor or even yourself are typical of Christianity.
If the typical Christian to you means embracing sin and hiding from the truth to be politically correct then no, I'm not typical.

Yes, and don't tell me you don't know why.

It is because of the cover-up, and the FACT that the Catholic church just moved their problem priests to a new church or diocese. Repeatedly and over decades. It is because the denial, half apologies and law suits attempting to shut down cases 'because it was long ago and the statue of limitations should not be changed'.

Even if they clean their own house, the legacy will last, just like the Crusades and Inquisitions.

Christians need to be shielded from such attacks, and one problem is that churches are so uncomfortable with the topic that they just pretend sexual desire doesn't exist. I think this video would be an excellent teaching tool for Christian men because it shows the dark horrible other side of the fence. This is what happens to women in the porn and sex industry. Then they can know this is the face of women who you are lusting after with your sinful desires. Praise God that this woman was rescued and has a new life in Christ. She would have no hope in the athiest world.


Annie Lobert - I Am Second
There is much proof of your 'Satan' as for your 'God'.

I remember my fundy ex-wife talking about how powerful Satan was, and freaked out when I said, the SOB is a wussy, and invited him in the room right here, right now to show that it was a real entity.

I had to stop teasing because she literally was truly afraid and frantic, told me to stop, told me I had no idea what I was doing, told me to please not to continue the 'taunt to Satan'. I stopped out of respect to her real fears, but thought to myself, "This woo chit really does effect people. The girl is gonzo!" She also talked excessively about the imminence of "the end times", and looked forward to that.

This was about the same time she was taking her exorcism courses, and she honestly believed that crap. What a sad existence to live a life of make believe. What a sad, sad waste of making the best of the only life we have here on earth before we become worm food.

Good Lord Cupper, din't ya know she was like that from jump street?


I believe in God but I would rather date an Atheist over what you are describing lol, no offense, but your ex wife nearly rivals the two Satans I married, well one was Satan and the other a beast.


So bad that I haven't even looked at another woman in 15 years, I avoid them like the plague, but seeing that I am still such a down right dang good lookin man, women are always chasing me and I don't blame them, but I throw rocks at them every time.

No, when we dated, and after our first year of our marriage, she was a lapsed SDA, and showed no interest in getting involved again. Then there was that Princess Di look alike thing that befuddled me. At any rate, her friends from the SDA church invited her to an event, she went, started going again, and then it was full court press involvement within 2 months after that event. Saturday services, Monday bible classes, Tuesday women's group, Wednesday I forget what, Thursday "mission work with the mentally ill on skid row", Friday off. The exorcism classes were taken so she could "chase the devil out of the mentally ill". That's the point we agreed our respective lives were best served if lived apart.

Good grief, no reason not to avail oneself of the charms of a pretty woman. I do regularly. It's good for the soul I don't have.

Which is a lot more than the proof for your beliefs. That would be zilch, none.

Now why would Satan bother revealing Himself to you? Then you would have to know that God is real and seek Him. One of Satan's greatest strategies is to let people like you doubt that His existence. He's already got you in the bank deceived and on the wrong path.

It's a sad waste spending day after day attacking Christians. In your world, suicide would have been the only way out of her living hell. Christ saved her.

Jeff. You're right! I have no beliefs!

As I said, Satan is as much a wussie as Jesus or Yahweh. None of them show themselves to me. Mind you, neither have a plethora of other gods. Baal, Ra, Thor, Zeus, Freya (now there's one who could take me!), Mazda, Quetzalcoatl, or even Vishnu. Nope, they all stay away, hidden in the fertile minds of those who refuse to think for themselves.

I have no problem with Christians. It's the silly fairy tales they let rule their lives that I think is sad. Or if they want to impose their version of those fairy tales on the greater society. Then you hear from me. You hear often because that last zeal of theirs is so prevalent. If the Kim Davis's of the world would just shut up, do their job, and practiced their fantasies at home or their place of worship, we're all good to go. Bring it to the town hall, the school or place of work, especially if that work is taxpayer funded, you'll hear from me.

LOL, you got a soul, and I would bet it was a good soul at that. You aren't allowed to see it cause you are only here to test others. So many people set aflame trying to prove you wrong only makes them study all the more, and so you have your job.


But yeah, I gave up on women long ago.


Not because of them though, it was always me.


I don't know, I feel as though I would have to be completely truthful should I take a mate, and seeing how that aint gonna happen, I gave up.
