The blasphemy challenge

[Yoga Face]

In this web you are asked to deny the Christian God, the one act that has no forgivness


http://www.blasphemychallenge.com/


blas⋅phe⋅my

an act of cursing or reviling God.



According to Mark 3:29 in the Holy Bible

"Whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; he is guilty of an eternal sin."


Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. (Exodus 20:7 KJV) ”

In addition, it is spoken of in the Luke 12:10, where blaspheming the Holy Spirit is spoken of as unforgivable - the eternal sin.

* Thomas Aquinas says that “it is clear that blasphemy, which is a sin committed directly against God, is more grave than murder, which is a sin against one's neighbor. … it is called the most grievous sin, for as much as it makes every sin more grievous.”[1]
* The Book of Concord calls blasphemy “the greatest sin that can be outwardly committed”.[2]
* The Baptist Confession of Faith says: “Therefore, to swear vainly or rashly by the glorious and awesome name of God…is sinful, and to be regarded with disgust and detestation. …For by rash, false, and vain oaths, the Lord is provoked and because of them this land mourns.”[3]
* The Heidelberg Catechism answers question 100 about blasphemy by stating that “no sin is greater or provokes God's wrath more than the blaspheming of His Name”


Any opinions ??

as a rather uncompromising atheist – I find this stuff really is lame.

 

[aldershot]

I came to the realization that there is no god many years ago. My life has been much better ever since. Don't soil your mind with this kind of bullshit.

I wouldn't have any problems being outed as a blasphemer but I don't want these nuts getting information on how to contact me.

I posted this thread to get some intellectual insight

I find it fascinating


To me, a formal declaration against the Christan concept of God would be freeing of all the junk Christianity has force fed me, but I find it very hard to do as my sub conscious will not let go of that fear inside me that I will burn in eternal flames

If you are an atheist then why is this website bullshit to you ?

Look around you ... there's more than one deity out there.

You could believe in the Christian god and still be wrong. So, if you're going to do it, you should find a better reason than simply not wanting to be wrong.

Holy fucking Jesus Christ am I screwed. Have been for some time.

There is only one Deity

Even Hindus believe their multiple gods are really part of one bigger Godhead

Call it Allah, God, Jehovah, Karma or whatever it is all the same thing

There is a belief that if you say all the names of God then the earthly world will come to its' end

I believe in a universe with a consciousness but reject dogmatic religion
otherwise the universe is a pointless absurdity

Buddism explores the concept of God from a non-dogmatic scientific view and has come to the conclusion there is a Godhead so keep your mind open

Settle down Questor ! You make me feel guilty for Christ's Sake(whoops!)

Not all Christian sects believe this is an unforgivable act !

Other Christian sects have access to the ultimate truth as well and they believe you can be saved so do not give up hope !

To me this seems embarrassingly childish. I knew gods and religions were bogus when I was twelve years old - but even then my maturity level was too advanced for such foolishness. I'd rather spend my time picking stocks or some other productive endeavor. not only are religions and gods not worth the time, but this this seems just too adolescent.

according to Mark 3:29 in the Holy Bible, "Whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; he is guilty of an eternal sin." Jesus will forgive you for just about anything, but he won't forgive you for denying the existence of the Holy Spirit. Ever.

Interesting discussion.

As for gods in general, have a look at these websites, stew on them for a bit (i.e. actually think about what you are reading and have learned) and come back to us with the questions that arose to you and the answers that occurred to you and which answers seemed more likely than others. The websites are:

http://www.graveyardofthegods.org/deadgods.html
http://www.graveyardofthegods.org/deadgods/listofgods.html (I find I have great difficulty choosing between Lygodesma and Tu . I mean, how do you know which one to worship? It's all so danged confusing!!! )
http://www.adherents.com/index.php#GroupNameIndex (obviously all 4,000 of them are correct right?)

Blasphemy is an interesting sin. I think it's a very important one for a lot of very good reasons. None of which have anything to do with what was quoted above (which isn't to say that those one's aren't correct, just that they have less merit in my own view than others).

INTERNET is the new GOD

INTERNET is the new GOD

i disagree , MONEY is and always will be the ONLY god

 

[jwmorrice]

Jesus et al can go climb a tree. I prefer to worship my old god, the almighty fuckin' dollar.

jwm

 

[nolabel]

There is no God. There, I blasphemed. I am related to monkeys of some kind, you should see me climb. But if I should ever be proved wrong, hopefully some deity won't bear any resemblance to the smiting, bigoted, childish Christian God, and She will say to me that I treated people well and did OK on balance.
