The return of the Christians in football thread - with appetiser

[Mr Angry]

Anyway, Simmo keeps proving that the mix of being a Devil Dodger and a footballer don't gel.

Cannot agree there.

Being religious is not relevent, see Falou, Inu.

Simmons is just not a footballer, bible reading or Zoo weekly reading.

Or a certain wedgie-giving prop

Whether it's relevant or not is, in itself, irrelevant angerone.

The thread is part of a long time forum tradition.

I don't even agree with it :lol:

 

[Dean Moriarty]

Right oh.

Well then, here's TDD and brother-of-wedgie talking about wild nights of teenage booze and skateboarding to keep things moving.

Good one Moriarty! Now my delicate psyche is irreparably damaged. He even sounds like a simp.

Rachael Kohn: Do you also feel that you lead by example, especially with team members?
David Simmons: Yes, I'd say a lot of the time that's all you've got you know, it's very rare that I get to sit down with another player and talk to them about God. Very rare. So all you've got is your actions and I'm always praying God will help me be a good Christian witness to shine, to stand out amongst the boys as being different because that is how people might reconsider the bible, if they can see God working in me, then maybe they'll look at the bible. So it's very rare that I get to talk with someone about God and sit down with them. Paulie probably will say the same thing. So you've got to I guess, lead by example.

I don't need to read that crap.

If we rely on his actions to do anything ....... we'd be going backwards.

Delicate psyche? Where's the real Frenzy and what have you done with him?

If Simmo wants people to see God working in him, perhaps we need to get him reading more appropriate parts of the Bible - the angry, smiting stuff.

Oh yes, Simmo - the new Jules Winnfield. :lol:

get him into the koran, then tell him every other team in the comp is secretly owned by jews or other infidels.

seems to work in palestine.

Puke!

What a f*ckin vomit fest, kudos to you though Simmo, maybe one day you can lead us all to the promised land. Obviously you have experienced all religions,creeds and cultures to make such a bold statement as to "SAVE" us all from ourselves.

Up yours Superman.

Read this.

Do it.

Read it now.

EDIT: The book, I mean. Buy it. Read it. Now.

 

[coolumsharkie]

• religion Misrepresents The Origins Of Humankind And The Cosmos
• religion Demands Unreasonable Suppression Of Human Nature
• religion Inclines People To Violence And Blind Submission To Authority
• religion Expresses Hostility To Free Inquiry

Bingo.

It's amusing to see someone tear the bible/religions to shreds with logic.

Someone will want to pray for him no doubt.

He ends by saying that he does not want to eradicate religion if those who are religious will "leave him alone", but ultimately, he writes, they are incapable of this

Had a "debate" with a guy at work over this thread. It quickly moved away from the football aspect and turned out to be full on theological discussion. Being the Caring "Evolutionist" that I am, I asked him to kindly explain Dinosaurs to me. He decided to show me this little gem: http://www.answersingenesis.org/articles/1999/11/05/dinosaurs-and-the-bible

It started off ok - sticking to the facts - then I had to apply the old handbrake, pull over to the curb and laugh my arse off when I got to the "When did Dinosaurs Live?" part. So this was his belief on How his religion explained the Dinosaurs and that the Earth is only a couple of thousands of years old. I Then asked him to explain one more thing..... I gave him two words that generally f**k up a religious persons day: Radiocarbon Dating.

If Carbon dating can date organic life back 50,000 years or so, how does that explain his "The Earth is only 6,000 years old" belief?

He told me that Carbon Dating is flawed - it can give multiple readings and dates on the same sample examined.

I then asked him about Uranium Isotopic Dating. This can date back to Billions of years - give or take 200,000 years either side and the fact that it is now commonly accepted by the general scientific community that the Earth is approximately 4.5 Billion Years old.

I even told him that a few years ago the Vatican (under good old Pope John Paul II) accepted Radiocarbon Dating as a means of dating objects like The Shroud of Turin - which accurately dated the object back to when it was "supposedly" used.... but when they found out exactly how far back Radiocarbon Dating can identify objects, they quickly backflipped and denounced it.




Theological debates are fun.

 

[spider]

i call shenanigans

 

[DJDL]

So if we all descended from Adam and Eve, and there is no such thing as evolution, why are there Caucasion, Asian, Negro, Neolithic, Paleolithic, Cro-Magnon, Neanderthals etc?

 

[Bastard Squad]

So I see. :lol:

If you are going to debunk him with facts you should probably stick to, err, facts.

The Vatican has never pronounced the Shroud of Turin as authentic or otherwise, and has never denounced radiocarbon dating. There are problems with radiocarbon dating on pieces of cloth that have been handled frequently for centuries, been repaired, and have been in fires etc.

And as your mate is a young earther, he is unlikely to give a f**k what the Vatican says anyway.
