People have celebrating longer days long before anyone introduced the concept of God. So, celebrate away secularists.

I wish all a peaceful and happy Holiday season and this certainly includes all American Humanists.

I also wish for them the greatest “gift” ever provided to humans; the gift of reconciliation to God through the death and resurrection of his son Jesus Christ.

My first reaction, when I see these types of stories, is to take offense; to become angry. But, upon reflection, I realize that this is the polar opposite of what I’m called to do as a Christian. These people seek meaning for their lives. I have that in common with them. We all do.

I pray that God would touch each willing heart and that they may know peace.

For believers, remember, as time goes on it’s only going to get worse. The world will move from this type of benign rejection to forceful persecution. A day is coming and has come by which the measure and quality of our faith will be tested.

Pray for God’s strength. For yourself. For your families. For the nations.

Happy Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas to all!

Who is this man who leads the church of nothing?

He must be very powerful indeed!

Although he is not content with believeing in nothing alone . . . he seeks a community of no god.

It all seems very simple. I guess that is what it is — simple. Indeed it is a church of humanity.

For me — I want to try to be better and it is the great teachers and mystics that hold the answers.

For these no God people life is a puddle. For people who look for the truth and divine answers and believe in God — life is a river.

This is insulting to anyone that believes in any God in my opinion. Why is it so popular to bash Christianity these days? This country is getting more warped by the day. Where do this nations core values and founding principals come from? The Bible, without Christianity there would have been no structure for our country in its infancy. When all is lost there is always God to help you if you are willing to accept him into your heart. Have a wonderful ThanksGiving and a Merry Christmas everyone!

To “Maybe Humanists have it right!”

You know, you’ve got a great point:

I forgot about all the Catholic priest, Methodist ministers and Baptist preachers that have strapped on bombs and blown themselves up in crowded marketplaces thereby killing innocent men, women and children.

I also forgot about those 19 Non-denominational Evangelicals that hijacked commercials flights and flew them into buildings; killing thousands!

Your right-there is no group more hateful than Christians!

I’m so blessed to live in a country where we all have the right to express all of our opinions. It also gives us opportunities share our beliefs with others. One of my favorite quotes is from Mother Teresa (and I’m not Catholic) – If you judge people you have no time to love them.

It’s no problem for secular humanists until they find themselves in hell.

N WAFF, NO ONE HAS BEEN THERE (HELL) AND COME BACK!

YOU HAVE HIS WORD ON IT!

And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.

Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father’s house: for I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead. Luke 16:24-31

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment Hebrews 9:27

YOU BELIEVE HIS WORD OR YOU DON’T!

The New Atheists of today are a sad lot. Heads up, losers: Freedom OF Religion, not FROM it.

Try as you might, Christians will turn the tide and prevent the religion of nihilism from tearing down our society any further.

America will not become the secular wasteland that Britain now is.

912Cindy   November 24th, 2009 - 11:38 am

I don’t usually cross talk on this site, but here is what I believe alongcameaspider is missing. His two greatest commandments is to love the Lord they God with all your heart and to LOVE your neighbor as yourself. If I don’t love people with different opinions than mine and try to build a relatiosnhip with them how will they ever hear or see the LOVE of God? I think Jesus gave us this example many, many times. We are to be salt and light. Look at the responses above – it is very sad the hurt people have experiences in the name of Christianity. I’m sure it is not what the Lord intended.

“Maybe Humanists have it right!”   November 24th, 2009 - 11:39 am

Molecular Conservative,
I guess you forgot about all those good Irish Catholics who set off bombs for the IRA, too. Christians don’t have to strap bombs to themselves…they just drop them from aircraft or shot them from drones. It’s much more moral that way! Praise Jesus…and pass the ammunition.

And Matt, at least Liberals aren’t hypocrites. Christ was about peace, love, and forgiveness. Try it sometime.

txmike   November 24th, 2009 - 11:53 am

This group is free to believe whatever they want. God will not force them to love Him in return.

Molecular Conservative   November 24th, 2009 - 11:58 am

Maybe Humanists…

I was on active duty for four years and I fail to recall a single instance where, prior to the commencement of a military operation, we collectively gathered and shouted “Praise Jesus”!

Or, show me a video of our combat troops praising the Lord while simultaneously engaging our enemies. You can’t! And the reason you can’t is that, unlike our islamic enemies, we don’t believe we our fighting at the behest of God, we are fighting at the direction of our Government-two entirely different things. We don’t kill to advance God’s will (but Muslims do); we fight and kill to rightly protect our national interest. To the degree our interest are protected; we stop fighting.

When will our enemies stop? When sharia supplants every other form of law or government. And don’t take my word for it. Just listen to words of committed Islamists like Bin Laden ah Ahmadinejad.

The arrogance of the Godless is on the rise and has been since their Messiah Obama came to power. Why? Because he is one of them.

Our kids are being taught in schools..No God…But G@y s@x is wonderful….that America is the bad guy…That Christians are the bad guys. Now they see it on their buses throughout the whole city….They go home and challenge their parent’s beliefs…with the support of their Godless Teachers.

What has this brought us?

Sky rocketing rates of .Murder…Abortion…Gangs…Killings…Attacks…Drop outs….child abuse…a 78% illegitimacy rate in the Bl@ck communities and 48% in the Wh@te Communities…..Welfare mothers and poor kids…drug use….stealing….attacks on the elderly…rapes and the dehumanizing of girls and women…and so much more evil….that’s what atheism and God killing has brought us…and it will get even worse as this is permitted to happen.

If a person puts up a sign asking for Obama’s birth records…or against abortions…or even a Christmas Blessing… he is blasted to no end….but when a sign is up …Blasting the existence of God?? It’s just free speech.

Does anyone else see the evil in all this?

Ask Jesus into your life…Ask for forgiveness of your sins…Try to spread the Word of God in your life…teach kids the meaning of God and a moral life…the sanctity of Life.

Stand up for God…He stands up for you. And then vote out ALL Godless Democrats in 2010 and their messiah Obama out in 2012… who allow such hate to be spread in our culture and our schools.

I’m an agnostic (or religiously indifferent) conservative, but I really don’t understand what the point is of these ads. Why would I go around trumpeting my disbelief on billboards and buses? Religious belief is your personal business.

The only thing worse than an in-your-face evangelical Christian is an in-your-face evangelical atheist.

America…saying there is no GOD…doesn’t make it not true…there is a GOD!

And one day each and everyone of us will stand before HIM and give account of what “we” did with this fact!

If they were Christian, they would know that Holy Scriptures proclaim that even Satan/Lucipher/devil himself believes that there is a a GOD and trembles at the very thought of the future GOD has planned for him in the end of days…his and ours!

These “humanists” are being used of Satan/Lucipher/devil to do his bidding. They believe…they just don’t realize it. They believe in the devil and his work and are doing it!

Holy Christian Scriptures reveal in the end times and because the times are short…that Satan/Lucipher/Devil will go to and fro about the earth seeking whom he may devour!

That means destroy!

Almighty GOD wants only the best for mankind…HIS creation! HE only wants us to prosper and HE has provided all who believe in HIM a way of escape from the tribulation to come through faith in HIS only begotten son…Jesus Christ for our salvation!

Satan/Lucipher/Devil…has only plans for destruction for mankind. He goes about lying repeatedly to mankind that GOD is not real, Jesus Christ was just a man…there is no “after life”…their is no “judgment day”!

Satan/Lucipher/Devil…speaks these things to mankind to destroy them because he does not want to be alone in his fate in the lake of fire…he wants you with him…and he is doing everything he can in these last days to deceive you and make you believe there is no GOD!

But I am here, America, to witness to you…that I have experienced the grace of my Christian GOD. I am hear to witness to you of his healing power in my life over cancer! I am hear to witness to you that my Christian GOD has everything under control and we have a future with HIM for eternity provided through the sacrifice of HIS only begotten Son…Jesus Christ and HIS resurrection over death!

I am here to tell you, America, these humanists lie. Would you rather take a chance on a lie…or the truth…your future depends on what you believe…and it is up to you to decide!

Unlike Islam…the Christian GOD does not “force” HIS teachings/beliefs on any man…that is why HE created man with a “free will” to decide on their own!

It is all up to you…and on that judgment day to come…you and only you will address which path you took and why? It was your decision…and it still is?

Shiori   November 24th, 2009 - 2:09 pm

Secular humanists, are not necessarily Atheists or vice versa. Secular Humanism was ruled to be a religion by the Supreme Court long ago. Among other tenants, SH is the fervent belief that religion should remain entirely absent from public life, while atheism is simply non-belief and non-religion. One may be a secularist and simultaneously personally religious or personally an atheist. For example, some of our founding fathers were atheist, some deist, and some christian, but all agreed that the free practice of religion [ individual freedom] should not be discouraged, nor enforced.

These advertisements are just another step toward European Socialism. All throughout Europe, particularly the UK, there are such ads on Mass Transit, Billboards, etc. Historically, we’ve seen where secularism leads – devotion to the State over all else, and canonization of demagogic tyrants. Liberalism is a religion, Leftists are it’s zealots, and Humanists care little about humanity.

Why do I get the same feeling when I look at these ads, as when I see old photos of Anti-Semitic propaganda in Nazi Germany?

Dear O’Really at 2:15 pm…for those of us who have experienced HIS grace, HIS love and HIS direction for our lives…it is the truth!

HE truly is the way…the truth and the life we had only hoped to live and the future we could only hope to have!

HE is our reality, our purpose and our future!

I speak only that which I know to be a fact because I have experienced that grace in my life on a daily basis!

Am I perfect, as HE was perfect, a long way from it! I fail HIM everyday, but yet another truth of my Savior…HE is forgiving enough to know I am human and will err! But when I have failed HIM, I can go to HIM in prayer and ask forgiveness for erring and HE is always there to forgive and FORGET!

As always, I must remind Eileen to read her bible:

“But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.” 1Tim 2:12

And to those who say non-christians will burn in hell, you do realize that hell is a wholly christian concept? The Jews didn’t even create hell before the christians subverted their belief system. I guess Jesus must have made hell when he came down to see what is all-knowing self was missing (Oh wait he was Jewish, so maybe the Jews did create hell? Perhaps they forgot to write it down when god was having them take notes for the first draft?) At any rate, the logical point (which I realize is useless in a religious debate) is that those who do not believe in christ, do not believe in hell, so go to hell you silly christians.

One day christians will have just as much power as the followers of Zeus do today.

If theres no god,then why did mankind seek to develope virtue and compassion? Why do people care about the suffering of others? Why feed the hungry ? If there is no god isn’t it wiser to eat the starving before the meat is all gone? Why Object to injustice ? Without at least a sense of a higher moral reference,what exactly is injustice? If theres no god then can’t we just do whatever we want ? If we kill someone whats so wrong,its just a stack of chemicals? If we rape someone,wheres the harm? They will just get over it right? If theres no god,why not burn down each others houses for fun? Why even try to do the right thing? For what? Why not just take whatever you want from anyone,anytime? Why don’t we have fangs and claws? Why do we need to think ? Is it all just a chemical stew ? How could anything matter then? Why not just kill whatever we don’t like ? Why protect what we do like,isn’t it meaningless? If theres no god,whats all the nonsense about fairness? Why not just do whatever we want,whenever and to whomever we want?

But thank you, anyway, for giving all others an opportunity to view both viewpoints on the subject…I am sure they will know which one is the truth and which one is suppressing and twisting the truth with discrimination!

Nope!”

Allow me to point out that this is what secular humanists and atheists have given the world over the last 90 years and tell me WHAT they have right:

The true face of atheism is seldom mentioned but well documented. The Communist regimes of the world are all atheist or humanist and have persecuted religious people since their inception. The central tenet of Communism is that all religion must be eliminated by any means. The Russian Communist atheists persecuted Christians and closed most Russian Orthodox churches. The Chinese Communist atheists murdered over a million Buddhist monks in Tibet. The atheists in Vietnam continue to persecute Catholics.

The partial body count for people murdered by atheist and humanist communists is:

150,000,000 murdered

China – 73 million murdered
USSR – 58 million murdered
N.Korea – 3 million murdered
Cambodia – 2.6 million murdered
Vietnam – 1.6 million murdered
Ethiopia – 1.3 million murdered
Yugoslavia – 1.0 million murdered
Cuba – 73,000 murdered

No organized religion on earth or all of them together has produced so much carnage as the humanist atheists.

The thought that goes through my mind is, If it were not for Christ, then why would we be celebrating anything in December?
Even though He was not believed to be born at this time of year, we still set this day aside to remember the gift that was given to us.
If everyone decided to not remember Christ, then we could do away with Christmas, but then what would the card companies do? Or the other retailers that say they make most of their money at that time of year.
I have to wonder how many people would spend themselves silly, just for some big fat man with the white beard and red suit.. Hummm. Makes one think… So when your faced with the “lets take Christ out of Christmas”idea , you might want to rethink what you are really doing at the end of Dec. and why..

K. Marx   November 24th, 2009 - 8:58 pm

Mr Corey, you are the one in need of some history tutoring.

Atheism, or non – deism, is the central tenet of communism. Remember when I said “religion is the opiate of the masses”. What I meant is that religion keeps the people complacent so it has to be eliminated for revolution to succeed. That is what we do in every country we conquer for communism and the central tenet of communism, atheism and secular humanism.

Those inconvenient people, 150,000,000, who we communists murdered in the name of communism were also murdered in the name of atheism and humanism, because without that, communism would fail. That is why every communist country persecutes the religionists – they stand in the way of the communist revolution.

This is mere propaganda that answers to an argument that no one has made. The claim is not that atheistic lack of morals but a lack of moral premise, lack of ethos.

It is also a reprinting of their ads from last year: http://atheismisdead.blogspot.com/2008/11/another-atheist-charity-huge-success.html

Yet again, during a time of the year when people are generally more inclined towards charity—peace on earth and good will towards non-gender specific personages—atheists are busily collecting hundreds upon hundreds of thousands of dollars during a time of recession not in order to help anyone in real material need but in order to purchase bill boards and bus ads whereby they seek to demonstrate, to themselves, just how clever they are.

They certainly have every right to promote their anti-God agenda, but what they don’t understand is that there is no such thing as people being good for goodness sake… there’s no impetus or even rationale to do so. Sadly, they can’t seem to get either idea correct in their minds.

Greetings: Repent for goodness sake! For people who claim there is no God, they sure spend a lot of time money and energy trying too convince themselves and others He doesn’t exist. That’s like raising funds and sending an army to a land with no enimies. The fact is GOD does exist and their actionas and slogan validate His truths. As it is written in the Psalms(long before this useless slogan came about) a fool in their hearts says there is no God. A humanist atheist or what ever name their flesh wants to call itself, can’t help but to war against God who they live in rebellion. (Gods word says) A Carnal (fleshly, sinful) mind is enmity (at war) against God. If there was no God- (and thank Him He is!) the unbelievers wouldn’t openly fight kick and scream against His goodness! Again their slogan, their lives ESTABLISH Gods truths-they mock-He said unbelievers would, they scoff, He said unbelievers would. If they had any clue that by warring against the light, it would only stir people towards it MORE, they would cease. But since they walk in the dark they stumble, in their own “willfull ignorance”. Merry CHRISTmas (not the pagan commercialized holidays) the celebration of a NEW.born King-JOY to the world! Isn’t it funny how atheist say don’t threaten me with hell, yet out of respect for the laws won’t cross a red light, or want to get on the boss’s bad side. Clearly in such cases they know rebellion has consequences. Atheism is a sham, scam. No wonder such people praise Obama. Since he took office, look at all the violent events that have taken place in this country. Obama is a blind guide whom blind people follow. People choosing him too lead them, say yes we can too Satan. Thank God it says what the Devil meant for evil GOD SHALL turn it around-in Jesus name yes we can forever!!!

Like anything that springs from the creative intelligence of humankind, the God Idea is liable to have its good and bad points. For centuries all have seen its works, good and bad. I for one believe that believers in a god certainly have the capacity to be good. After all they are human beings like any others, born with innate propensity for good (and bad) that apparently predates the invention of religions. Human inspiration to action may certainly spring from belief in a god or it may spring from a long walk. But whatever the inspiration, none can argue that human actions themselves, performed here on earth, are entirely human-wrought and owe nothing whatsoever to anything else. Thus one may conclude that humankind is accountable only to itself, here on earth and not beyond.
