I'm not saying that u should ignore the Old Testament. I was saying that since Jesus died on the cross for us, we do not have to obey the Law(the law of the Old Testament i mean) anymore. It is more the New Testament that u should be quoting from. The New Testament does not tell us to hate gay people. Am I saying that there r not Christians who may hate gays or blacks? No. But they are sinning if they do. But what i am trying to say is that the laws of the Old Testament are not applicable unless they are quoted in the New Testament. And the New Testament does tell us to love our neighbors( meaning everyone) as ourselves.

So I never really understood why people believe this. Did Christ mislead his followers for the first 1600 years? How could he die on the cross - then have people believe one set of scripture for 1600 years (killing gays the whole time) - then suddenly switch? Why the change 1.6 millennia in? What possible reasons would be given for a human king in Europe to make such sweeping changes to the direct word of god?

As it stands Christianity as whole has been advocating killing gays for 80% of their history and only recently has come around to thinking there may be a moral problem with this.

Oh and since Jesus was obviously Arabic it makes me laugh every time I see a hardcore racist Christian (non-Arab) who hates Arabs. Gives me a good laugh.

It seems to me that u have never read the bible. The first law was in place for the Jews and those Gentiles who decided to become Jews(this means that the gentile agreed to follow the Jewish traditions). Also the reason that the first law was in place was because of sin. That is why the Jews sacrificed animals; to hide their sins. When Jesus died on the cross, because He was perfect and His dying wiped away our sins, it took away the need for the law. The new law was for Christians to follow. I will admit that many atrocities were committed in the name of Christ. These were wrong. The Bible teaches love not hate. Show me where, in the New Testament, it says to hate gays, blacks, Arabs, and adulterers. It tells is to show them love. They should not be allowed to be a member of the church, however. Another thing u aske was why God would tell His people to kill of other countries. This was because He was punishing the people who lived in those countries. You ask what kind of God would do this and you say that it is not fair. Actually it is more than fair. All of us ( all of us, even Christians and any true Christian should tell you this) deserve to go to hell. I mean think about it. Assuming He is real, He is all-powerful and always right and He created us. If we disobey Him that is rebellion. He would be perfectly right in killing all of us and yet He did not.

Another thing evolutionists should think about: If you guys are right and i am wrong then when i die i just stop existing. Not really a punishment, right? Well, just think. If somehow, someway i am right, then you go to hell for eternity. For me its a win/win situation. What is it for u?

Ok... It seems like u totally missed my point. As for saying that u will go to hell and all that, i am just looking at it logically. If u see it differently then i will be happy to listen. Jesus died for us to cover up our sins, yes. But that does not bring Him down to the importance of an animal. For instance, (this analogy might sound weird but it makes sense if u think about it) a Saint Bernard rescue dog died saving a human. So would this mean if a human died trying to save another human, would we say that he is equal with a dog? No! I wish u would address the rest of the stuff in my post. Or maybe u cnt?

Prove that evolution is true. Show me proof instead of just telling me im wrong. This topic is not about the bible. It is really whether evolution is true or creation. I am sick of hearing, go look it up yourself. I have studied evolution and creation. Show me your proof. Don't just say (for example) the fossil record supports it. Show me how it supports it.
