Quote by: jamesbdunn School is a necessary part of our lives to gain the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic to function in our society. However, if children are necessarily corrupted in schools to work against the words of God, then how could that be right? I would rather send children to school to learn the basics necessary for living within our society, rather than having them corrupted with the teachings of persons who have strayed from Gods words.
The original stone tablets of the Ten Commandments is the ONLY legitimate Bible. All texts written by man since then are exactly what the Ten Commandments said they would be, vial. |
Ummm you're making one large assumption here... that the "stone tablets" even existed. We wouldn't know they existed if it hadn't been for the torah. Even if we ignore that fact, and only took the word of oral tradition to know that some tablets existed, it's still taking the words of men on nothing but
faith, the belief without logical proof or empirical evidence.

You'd think an Omnibenevolent god would make up some better rules like Thou shalt not molest children, or thou shalt not beat thy wife or something more profound. The first three rules show nothing but a egocentric jealous god, hardly the qualities I wish to worship.

So what happens, people write for themselves the Bible, Kuran, and a variety of other texts to idolize. Leading people to believe that they will be forgiven for doing vial acts against the Ten Commandments.

Yeah well it's better than the alternative, death for breaking the commandments.

In EVERY publication since the stone tablets, PEOPLE have sought to gain reverence by other people.

Again, you're assuming this "publication" even took place. I mean c'mon, really, do you REALLY think that a burning bush that isn't consumed by the fire can really write into stone, words to live by? Oh thats right, you believe the stone tablets existed.....Doh!

ALL Priests, Rabis, Prophets, Preachers, and other persons and texts that admonish the Lord and God in service of their own desires, are in FACT purveyors of works AGAINST the original stone tablets.

I'm still waiting for evidence (not even proof) that the tablets existed in the first place.[quote] A person can neither add to nor subtract from the words of the stone tablets without deviating from the words of God. The stone tablets are the basis for the most popular religions, and are the ONLY words directly transcribed by GOD. It can NOT be interpretated by any person, it can only be read by each person.[quote] How do you know these are the only words transcribed by this god? Oh thats right, some book tells you this, a book written by guess who?.... MAN. Does being the basis for "the most popular" religions give you reason to believe any of it is true? Remember, everyone use to think the earth was flat and the sun revolved around us. Everyone was wrong once knowledge to the contrary was gained.

Nowhere in the stone tablets does it infer that ANY person shall listen to any other person for guidance. NO PERSON shall interpret the stone tablets for another person. To do so is to speak in the LORDS name.

Why should we listen to you? This sounds like hog wash to me. Who says "NO PERSON sahll interpret the stone tablets? Aren't you doing this very thing you say we can't do? Sounds like an interpretation to me if you say that by interpreting, we are taking the lords name in vane.

No, religious notions should not be taught in public schools. To do so removes access to public education for those not wanting to expose their children to vial teachings.

This is the only thing you've said that I agree with. Religion has it's own place, its called CHURCH or Synogog or Mosque, it doesn't require tax payer dollars and it insures that you corrupt your children in the faith you want them to be corrupted in.
