Humanism is Ineffective and has Shown the World Nothing

Ok why don't kill your Children who disobey you. Because that rule is in the Bible.

Are you unable to read? Give me a verse that sanctions killing other Christians. Did you overlook "Love your neighbor as yourself?"

Not many Christains love they neighbors especially if they have Muslims neighbors who they believe are terrorists.

Are you sure it's the religions fault or is it the followers. We're talking about doctrines and teachings, not the fallible followers. I don't spend my posts discussing about the idiocy of evolutionists who desperately try to prove their theory by 'creating' fossils of transitory species and how they have killed Aborigines to use as evidence for "relatives of Homo sapiens".

I wonder who obeys the second one: "Show kindness to the poor". Nobody

What are you talking about? So many Christian organizations are going out and reaching out to the poor. From donations to missionaries, they all do their best to give food and shelter to the needy.

I don't know why picked this one: "Be holy". There is not one Christain who be's Holy the way God would want them to be.

God asks for man to rely on Him. Man is fallible and cannot rely on himself. I know that no one can be perfect 100% of the time. But we should make an effort to follow the example of Christ.

No. I was only seeing which one was better. Anyway now I am going to be using Science and Humanism.

Humanism has not failed mankind religion has and still is.

You're a bit misguided on this... Humanism has done nothing, and proven nothing. Do you continue to ignore the last century which was the decline of Christianity and rise of Humanism and Evolution?

Humanism is new, and it's already been revised twice! Three seperate Humanist Manifestos in such a short period of time! Humanism puts man as the center of the universe. Do you really believe man can save itself when all of history has contradicted such a belief?

May Science Bless You All

Stop worshiping the creation and worship the Creator.

May God Bless You All
