People choosing to kill other people for religion's sake it's their own f()ckin problem, not mine. There are lots of weirdos on this planet (just look at mr.squealpiggy, for example...), I'm just not interested to cope with them, it's not my problem, it's not God's fault, it's just their own problem. Not mine. You understand? I just gotta stay on-topic here, the rest goes by itself.

That's called "Free will": we can do whetever we want in this life, and pay or be rewarded for it in the afterlife (according to Roman Catholic religion).
Examples: suicide bombing is not rewarded with Heaven, and not considered a good deed, according to Christian religion. Giving a handout (charity) is indeed rewarded and considered a good deed.

Go ask any priest or Christian if it's right to kill themselves as long as other people, and listen what he'll tell you.
According to Christianity, even suicide (without bombing) is considered as heavy a sin as homicide.
The Bible tells lots of violent stories, but you must think that those were ancient, obscure times. The Israelites were nomads-warriors and peasants: they didn't have a structured and ordered society as ours. They lived in a rough and violent world and did rough and violent things to survive.
In fact, the main book of Christians is (also the Bible but) Gospel. If you read the Gospel, you can find out the real deal of Christianity.Last edited by Nick Name; 02-01-2011, 06:36 AM.
