Quote from: "Sophus"I wonder if they think wet dreams are sinful.

... or mass murder, for that matter?

Good on you Europe, about time you started embracing the free enterprise Christian experience.

QuoteReligious tourists in Europe already have the Vatican, Lourdes and Fatima. But the developers behind an amusement park proposed for Mallorca believe they need the attraction of the Holy Land â€" the continent's very first Christian theme park.

I saw this on a kind of comedy, current affairs quiz show.  
A question was asked, what would be your least favourite ride at this place? Pope, Cross and Holy Ghost train were suggested.

The via Dolorosa would suck, as would Jonah's Journey -- assuming the latter used live whales, of course.

I went to the Holy Land in Florida once, in sixth grade.  They didn't have rides.  The worst bit for me was either walking around the darkly lit rooms holding old manuscripts (it scared the daylights out of me) or the boredom of watching people dancing around in front of a synagogue façade.  I can't remember what they were supposed to be doing.

I once got chased out of a chapel. With an actual broom.  :pop: For me, few things before or since were ever funnier.

Yeah?  I got thrown out of a Southern Baptist church choir for wearing a KISS T-shirt.

'Course, they didn't have to chase me out with a broom.

That was the last time I went to church voluntarily.

Well, I was kinda... Listening to Death Metal at volume 11, wearing my glow-in-the-dark Grim Reaper t-shirt... Among other sins, but let us not dig in the dirt, yes?  :P

My all time favorite by far, is when Joseph said 'I didn't get Mary pregnant, god did it'
and even funnier, everyone believed him.

Top that!
Religion makes me chuckle.

All those Jesus and Virgin Mary figures/faces in sandwiches, tomatoes and other stuff. Then people travel hundreds of kilometers to worship food... Without actually eating the food...

All of it is incredibly preposterous to me these days. It's no longer funny...
Infallibility
Incorruptible bodies
Virgins birth
Resurrections
"Knowing" something based on faith that has no good evidence for it
Faith
Double talk
Back pedaling
Homosexual 'men of the cloth'
Adulterous 'men of the cloth'
Rich 'men of the cloth'
Jesus in prison
Rich Christians
6000 year old earth
40,000 member mega-churches
etc., etc., etc.
The essence of the mind is not in what it thinks, but how it thinks. Faith is the surrender of our mind; of reason and our skepticism to put all our trust or faith in someone or something that has no good evidence of itself. That is a sinister thing to me. Of all the supposed virtues, faith is not.

Just remembered earlier today: My New Testament teacher attempted for a whole quarter to convince the class that Revelation is a book of hope.
