Here is what I would like you to do. Find a part of history (where there was bloodshed and confusion), and then find the part of the Bible which declares that's how people should behave.

There ARE parts of the Bible where God did declare that certain people declare war. However, God is a righteous God and if he commands that evil be eradicated -- then so be it.

Nevertheless, these were in ancient times and are few. It doesn't explain why humanity, throughout the ages, have warred with each other (without the command of God). It doesn't explain why so many hypocrites use the Bible for their own means.

WAR exists between good and evil. God allows evil to persist, only while it serves the purpose of letting people learn their lessons.

If you want to understand the Bible, I highly insist that you read it. However, it is unfair to say that all the problems of man are cased by the Bible - because if man adhered to God's word, there would be no suffering.

We cause our suffering on ourselves. It is not fair to blame God, or his word.

why do you constantly assume people have not read the bible from those who disagree w you? you use that as an argument everytime.

you completely contradict yourself when claiming that there are instances where "god" allowed people to declare war. you make no sense and are really sounding like religious dogma.

we are all gods, and there is no such thing as "good and evil".... that was for the uneducated masses centuries ago... there's positive and negative energy.

wow, you really are a bible thumper

zeddo, very articulate.
