People can justify anything using the name of God. Incredible. |
Or just being true to their faith. There was also a god who supposedly murdered all first-borns of a nation just to send a message. All first-borns!
And the amazing thing is, the people in whose name the murder was committed, are still celebrating the event 2000 years later. |
Wasn't that Ramses?

I'm curious, what group of people celebrate the murders of all firstborns? |

The people who claim it happened as a way to save them? That they were more important than those that "their" God killed. |

I think you're adding your own narrative. Nobody celebrates the death of the first born children. |

And I am curious, who 'Murdered those first borns? I'm more curious to know if equating a symbolic 'celebration' of freedom that happened 3500 years ago and the supposed act of 'God' during that time (Which may or may have not happened - no one really knows) with the satanic and barbaric killing of 100 innocent children TODAY is a joke or just a plain expression of complete idiotness?
Contagious stupidity?

If anyone ever told me my God was going to do this for me I would denounce them uber fast.. Tell them to gdiaf |

Hears about a group that murders over 100 innocent children.
Uses it as a platform to attack Jews. |

^^doesnt read all that was written
Jews cannot be Christians can they..
I'm just tired of ALL the accepted killing in religions.
How many innocent children do you think the USA has murdered in Iraq, Afghanistan, and now Syria? Oops.. They "collateral damaged" them.
We have been trying to murder the Taliban to Peace for what?? 11+ YEARS? |

Its sad to think this thread would be locked. Everyone's free to their opinion but some of you can't even mourn properly. I didn't know the children but can't the athiests just say their thoughts are with them, such a shame, this is terrible, ect... and the believers in God pray for them? Start another thread if you want to get one locked. |

Listen, people. Bigotry of any kind isn't welcome here. You can direct criticism and anger at specific criminals/perpetrators, but you can't generalize to entire populations -- whether you're using skin color, religion, ethnic origin, etc.
DON'T DO IT. I've personally warned a couple of people. If people continue down this path the next stop is PERMANENT BAN. |
