TOP TEN SIGNS YOU'RE AN UBER CHRISTIAN

TOP TEN SIGNS YOU'RE AN UBER CHRISTIAN


10- You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of your god.

9- You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from lesser life forms, but you have no problem with the biblical claim that we were created from dirt.

8- You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a trinity god.

7- Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how god/jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "joshua" -- including women, children, and trees!

6- You laugh at hindu beliefs that deify humans, and greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the holy spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.

5- You are willing to spend your life looking for little loop-holes in the scientifically established age of the earth (4.55 billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by pre-historic tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that the earth is a couple of generations old.

4- You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects -- will spend eternity in an infinite hell of suffering. And yet you consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving".

3- While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to prove christianity.

2- You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of god.

1- You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the bible, christianity, and church history -- but still call yourself a christian.


Call it pagan payback or call it what you will.

THE CHRISTIAN STATE OF MISSOURI 3/5/06

: "SECOND REGULAR SESSION
House Concurrent Resolution No. 13
93RD GENERAL ASSEMBLY
4572L.02I


Whereas, our forefathers of this great nation of the United States recognized a Christian God and used the principles afforded to us by Him as the founding principles of our nation; and


Whereas, as citizens of this great nation, we the majority also wish to exercise our constitutional right to acknowledge our Creator and give thanks for the many gifts provided by Him; and


Whereas, as elected officials we should protect the majority's right to express their religious beliefs while showing respect for those who object; and


Whereas, we wish to continue the wisdom imparted in the Constitution of the United States of America by the founding fathers; and


Whereas, we as elected officials recognize that a Greater Power exists above and beyond the institutions of mankind:


Now, therefore, be it resolved by the members of the House of Representatives of the Ninety-third General Assembly, Second Regular Session, the Senate concurring therein, that we stand with the majority of our constituents and exercise the common sense that voluntary prayer in public schools and religious displays on public property are not a coalition of church and state, but rather the justified recognition of the positive role that Christianity has played in this great nation of ours, the United States of America."

~we live in frightening times. this resolution was recently introduced in missouri. the majority can never speak to the needs of the minorities.
