1317 Reasons Christianity is FalseMatthew 16:28
“Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”
Jesus also advised against going to court against someone who steals from you and also told people not to store up stocks or reserves for the future. Clearly, he thought the end was very near.
Likewise, Paul advised followers not to marry and that the end time was near. In this scripture he obviously believes that some of the people he is talking to will still be alive at the second coming.
I Thessalonians 4: 16-18
“For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words.”
The obvious fact is that the second coming was not forthcoming at that time, or even close to being near. The nearly 2000-year delay is a strong piece of evidence that Christianity is a failed religion.
The following quote from Stephen L. Harris, Professor Emeritus of Humanities and Religious Studies at California State University- Sacramento, completes this point with a devastating argument. Remember that Jesus was a Jew who had no intention to deviate from the Hebrew scriptures:
Jesus did not accomplish what Israel’s prophets said the Messiah was commissioned to do: He did not deliver the covenant people from their Gentile enemies, reassemble those scattered in the Diaspora, restore the Davidic kingdom, or establish universal peace (cf.Isa. 9:6–7; 11:7–12:16 , etc.). Instead of freeing Jews from oppressors and thereby fulfilling God’s ancient promises—for land, nationhood, kingship, and blessing—Jesus died a “shameful” death, defeated by the very political powers the Messiah was prophesied to overcome. Indeed, the Hebrew prophets did not foresee that Israel’s savior would be executed as a common criminal by Gentiles, making Jesus’ crucifixion a “stumbling block” to scripturally literate Jews. (1 Cor.1:23 )
The fact that Jesus was wrong about the end of the world is good news to all of us alive today because otherwise we would not have been born.
Borrowed Miraculous Elements
Most of the miracles discussed in the Gospels were common elements of pre-Christian pagan religions including:
- miraculous foretelling of a deity
- virgin birth
- a guiding star
- a nativity visit by royalty
- the baby god threatened by a jealous ruler
- manifesting extraordinary wisdom in childhood
- turning water into wine
- walking on water
- enabling the lame to walk
- healing the sick
- raising up dead persons
- restoring sight to the blind
- allaying storms on the sea
- casting out devils
- communion with a holy meal representing the god’s body
- being put to death
- the sun becoming dark after the death
- rising from the dead
- talking to disciples after resurrecting
- ascension into heaven
- providing salvation for mankind.

The truth is that very few of the miracles discussed in the Bible are unique to Christianity. This is a strong piece of evidence that Christianity is a man-made, cobbled, and fundamentally plagiarized faith.

-What exactly is unrealistic, what is mistaken? Accusations without reasons, cheap!
- You should have something to teach, when you are so fond of giving lessons. 
You see, I said absolutly nothing in a very "meaningful" way. Please!!!
-Bill Maher — 'Atheism is a religion like abstinence is a sex position.' Cristians wish that so much, that atheism is a religion, they seem to think, that they become less evil than, but they don't! It wouldn't change anything at all, because of the point below, amongst other thing
- "yes again including Atheism )" You wish, makes that you feel better, when you think that? How often atheists knocked at your door, to convert you? Hm? Facts look different sometimes, than your wishes do,you recognized that?

My phrases are not empty but a way to use words to describe things that usually have no grammatical equal.
Religion is nothing more than a group of rules defined by humans to use to empower those people and dominate others. That all stems from all religions being based on human selfishness and perceptions. And example being when a lion takes down a gazelle it is no more evil than when a person kills another person EXCEPT from a human imposed sense of good/evil and or right/wrong. Yet the laws of the universe and nature are NOT subject to human's desire for control and that is where the teaching of religious manifesto's always try to demand they be.
Atheism IS a religion since all religions are at the root a belief structure defining a individuals relationship within life. ( which is all "God" is also) Just like being asked a question and not giving an answer.. the very fact that no answer is given IS an answer just as Atheism is a religion. And I need no Atheist knocking on my door to preach their dogma. I find it enough when those who profess it want to cram such things down my throat time after time after time all the while proclaiming they they REALLY aren't preaching...

-"My phrases are not empty", no they only help you to avoid giving answers. So why are all religions good in the base, when their fruits are that evil, how can the base/seed be good, you still haven't said that! But you said a lot of other things
-"Religion is nothing more than a group of rules defined by humans to use to empower those people and dominate others" So what?
-Atheism isn't a religion, you even gave an explaining this time, not only a statement, wow! 
"a belief structure defining a individuals relationship within life.". Atheism doesn't believe
-"the very fact that no answer is given IS an answer just as Atheism is a religion." So you are Britney, I see You define religion as an "answer"? With that science is also a religion 
-"they they REALLY aren't preaching..." Sure Atheist have an institution a church, taking taxes and telling people what to do and what not, because of a book, written long time ago. Forbitting things to others, that isn't their business at all, like homosexuality, what to eat and what to wear, SURE!
You wish "Britney"!

Let me try and be succinct
religions are good at the base because they propagate the understanding that there is more to life than the basic human selfcenterdness which allows people to know THE most important answer in all the universe and that is " there are things you do not know but can find out".
Those who know don't and those who know they don't are the smartest of us all.
Don't know where you got on th Brittney kick since I have no use to following any cleb stupidity so i shall let that go bye.
"Religion is nothing more than a group of rules defined by humans to use to empower those people and dominate others" So what?" ~ So what? Well I would assume that you don't like to be someone else's slave however if that IS your preference then that also is your choice.
I find it interesting the turning of phrase imparted in saying Atheism accepts facts only. Sorry but that sounds so silly since it is in no whay close to being true.. Atheism denies facts and belief and anything else that would promulgate any other belief structure in anything except it's self ( and that's funny in a different way since the Christian commandment being " You shall have no other God before me" is exactly the same expounded by Atheism) Suck denial is the basis of that belief ( and it IS a belief and it is also a structured belief hence it is a belief structure just as every other religion is a belief structure)
I see you have this celeb hang up.. Well my only response to such accusations is this. ~ Fuck Britney. And if you wish to continue to insult and name call then there is no rational for any continued conversation while you simply offer insults.

That's why people who never killed someone, suddenly beheading people, when they become a member of the islamic state. "understanding that there is more to life than the basic human selfcenterdness"
"The most heinous and the most cruel crimes of which history has record have been committed under the cover of religion or equally noble motives." Pascal
Rules are also made by governments, but they normally, at least in the westrn world, don't use a "god" or higher being, as a reason for their rules. Except the vatican state maybe and the "islamic state" of course.
So my government is a religion, good to know
- Seriously?
"Atheism denies facts and belief and anything else that would promulgate any other belief structure in anything except it's self ( and that's funny in a different way since the Christian commandment being " You shall have no other God before me" is exactly the same expounded by Atheism) Suck denial is the basis of that belief ( and it IS a belief and it is also a structured belief hence it is a belief structure just as every other religion is a belief structure)"
So religion says the earth does NOT revolve around the sun, like it did for hundred of years, that is a fact, cause it is a believe, by your very own "special" definition. And Atheism is wrong and have to burn for it, when they PROVE that it isn't that way.
- "then there is no rational for any continued conversation"
You seriously use the word "rational" really???

I told you I was not going to carry on a conversation with you and your childish, ignorant and stupid "Britney" insults.
So now I will simply say fuck you and fuck off.

Think, you are much more childish, so you should be carefully with accusations about it. Not me making statements without giving any evidence/proof/logical argumentation. With your "definition" a cooking book is also a holy book, cause it is giving answers and have rules, so sure has also Britney Spears some "rules" in her life and she is giving answers too, very often. Holy Britney
Your last words are pretty "wise", as the rest

I see you enjoy continuing to insult and cannot stop yourself or know when you should prolly shut up since it's obvious you wish to continue to keep pushing both me and this whole narative while being as insulting as you can.
So this time I shall make sure you get the hint in no uncertain terms.. Take your insulting argumentativeness, shallowness and self righteousness and wad it all into a ball and shove it straight up your ass sideways. I refuse to converse with someone who is so stuck on herself that she cannot see past her nose and wishes to demean, harass and bully someone with insults. I would be ashamed if I acted and spoke in that manner as you do which shows no respect for me or yourself to act in such a way.
So as far as I am concerned this whole conversation is terminated and if you want to crow you won then enjoy that falseness and you can go back to staring at yourself in the mirror where you can be always right, righteous and perfect while the world passes your narcissism bye without a second glance.
be wise and be gone please.

I am insulting yeah, sure! Please read the last sentences of your comment before telling such things You call me childish and stuff like that... not to talk about your great "arguments" the words with "f..."
You seriously think that was an answer for what I said before??? Nope, it wasn't! Only a try to offend. I am childish, yeah I am, so what? Still you have no reasonable arguments, to what I have said!?! My character changes nothing about that
"Self righteosness" you have the nerves to accuse me of that? Really??? After showing here countless examples of your senseless and useless "teachings" about absolutly nothing???
You should be ashamed so, why you aren't? Cause you perfectly describing yourself and no one else here and even gave enough proofs! 
I said already, this isn't a conversation, you are constantly avoiding to give answers, by spreading out senseless and empty pharses and when it doesn't work you start with offendings simply, typical christian habit here btw., so much about being "childish" again
Good advise in the end after all, what about practising what you preach, hm?

Ok I can see you just LOVE to argue and be a bitch cunt about this.
So this will be the finial straw.
I have tried to give you a clue but your ego and shithole mouth do not know when to stop spewing bullshit.
So in closing I will say get fucked cunt and have a nice day.

Woah there Lisa, I don't think you're supposed to be teaching people about the bible, 1 Timothy 2:20 (I think that's the verse at least..) says that "Women are not supposed to teach or speak authority over men, they are to learn silence and submission, or be stoned to death."

I hate it when people say I'm taking things out of context when I'm clearly not. :/ They have to get over the fact that their book condones misogyny, slavery and all sorts of other things, while condemning innocent things like wearing mixed fabrics or being gay.

In that case I learned my lesson, was "burned" often enough, so I gave up It normally ends up in personal attacks and offendings/ accusations they throw at their "opponents", while lying constantly. And many seriously think "you will burn in hell" is an argument.
