That was not a funny piece I will agree, because it is an all to accurate description of how those that believe have been sold on the nonsense of god, heaven, and especially the scary part, hell. Religion would have so little power over the minds of people were it not for the fear of a very vindictive god and the consequences of making it mad.
Do you ever look at the 10 commandments and wonder why are the first 4 all about him? What part of gods psyche is so fragile that the first 4 rules are all about and only about him?
And yes, he needs money, but since you throw in your 10%, I'm sure you are aware of that.

XD40scinNC thrives by being a parasite on Christianity and likes to target the shortcomings of individuals. XD40scinNC never passes up a chance to fulfill Bible prophecy as a last days scoffer, or "mocker". XD40scinNC is so opposed to anything linked to God that his hatred gets in the way of common sense. So again, as we can see, XD40scinNC, a Rabid Spawn of Satan, in the essence of his father the devil will never go away or shut up, he will simply continue to "BARK" his rage and foolishly waste our time.

Speaking of incessant barking, and offering nothing but lame insults in your inability to deal with someone with different views. Is this the teachings of your religion, or is this just a failure on a personal level to deal with someone with differing views? Seems all you are capable of is to run to the end of your chain and bark, as demonstrated with a few of your posts in this thread quoted above.
Is it because your are so lazy that you even copy/paste your own words (in addition to the words of others you are notorious for). I'm hurt, clearly you are filled with hate yet you can't even come up with new insults, to justify your views?

Psalm 14:1King James Version (KJV)
The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

“Were God to show grace to all of Adam's descendants, men would at once conclude that He was righteously compelled to take them to heaven as meet compensation for allowing the human race to fall into sin. But the great God is under no obligation to any of his creatures, least of all to those who are rebels against him.”

Various are the pleas and arguments which men of corrupt minds frequently urge against yielding obedience to the just and holy commands of God.

God is looking for broken men who have judged themselves in the light of the cross of Christ. When He wants anything done, He takes up men who have come to the end of themselves, whose confidence is not in themselves, but in God.

These spiritually minded individuals made statements that stir and feed my soul . I would never seek counsel from the wicked concerning the things of God. A corrupt carnal mind will be of no benefit in eternity.

If people think he's funny that's OK. I never watched him. Found him to be unfunny.

The bigger question is why do you follow laws founded in religion every day of your life. To think religion is all about a sky daddy is ignorant. It's about the rules of a decent society. The Bible offers rules for dealing with infection, money, fairness, love, neighbors, etc. Regardless of what anyone posts or thinks, civilization is absolutely rooted in religion. There's absolutely no disputing world history. There's also something called "gut value programming." What you are is in part based on the values your parents programed into you during the growth years. If your family were atheists, you'll likely follow that programming. Covered in "Psychology of Personal Development" which is another Psych 101 course at every college.

The End of All Things
Our adversary, Satan, has used a number of different tactics to try and thwart the spread of the Gospel as his primary modus operandi.
First, he influenced the Jews and the Romans to kill the Christ, not knowing that he was doing exactly what God knew he would do, and planned for, for the redemption of not just the Jews, but all mankind.
Secondly, Satan attempted to crush the fledgling church through intense periods of persecution, but that only caused it to grow even faster. Then, because persecution failed, he attempted to (and has been most successful in) the corrupting of the Church through false teachings. But now, at the end of our age, he again, is running out of time, so the corruption is being married up with the persecution because he knows his time is short.
The two things he hates most, is our salvation by grace through faith (because of Christ’s victory at the cross over death and hell), and the Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the church, because that means (and he knows this) he has only around seven years left. I say around, because I don’t know when exactly the Tribulation (or the Day of the Lord) will start, as the Rapture does not trigger the 70th week, but the peace treaty does. (Daniel 9:27)
How do I know Satan hates the Pre-Tribulation Rapture and the prophetic nature of the Bible in general? Just look at what is attacked the most. Just look at what is ridiculed and mocked, and belittled the most (both by the world and professing Christendom), and you’ll see what Satan hates.
This world is still under management by Satan (Luke 4:5-6; Eph. 2:2; 1 John 5:19), and he will do whatever he can, to distract, divide, and destroy the faith of the Church today. In military terms (JP 3-13.4), Satan is using both the ‘feint’ and the ‘ruse’ as tactics to deceive the church:
Ruses. A ruse is a cunning trick designed to deceive the adversary to obtain friendly advantage. It is characterized by deliberately exposing false or confusing information for collection and interpretation by the adversary (this would be the Church).
Feints. A feint is an offensive action involving contact with the adversary conducted for the purpose of deceiving the adversary as to the location and/or time of the actual main offensive action (this would be the rapture of the Church).
The Church will be raptured into the air, which happens to be Satan’s domain (Eph. 2:2) and will undergo the Bema Judgment (1 Cor. 3:9-15; 2 Cor. 5:9-11) along with those who had gone before us into death. When we are raptured, we step out of time and into the eternal state, at which judgment comes to the house of God first (1 Peter 4:17). We were judged for our sins at the cross with Christ, (Col. 2:13-15) and then ourselves undergo the Bema judgment for rewards at the Rapture, after which, depending on our own faithfulness and positions in God’s administration, will administrate through Christ’s judgment, the world and demonic hosts at the end of the 70th week of Daniel. (Daniel 7:9-27; Matt. 19:28, 25:31-46; 1 Cor. 6:3)
Conclusion
Just like at the end of the 1st century B.C., God will again, break into human history when the time is right, and collect up those who make up the body of Christ, by our baptism and sealing into the body of Christ, by the Holy Spirit. Not only will He transform our lowly estates from mortal, to immortal, but He will bring with Him those who have already died so that we may all receive our glorification, because as Christ (who is the firstfruits) came into His resurrection body, so too will we. (Phil. 3:21-22; 1 John 3:1-3)
Some refuse to accept this truth, because they can only understand it in a matter of ‘what’s fair’. They argue, “why should only we get to escape what is coming?” “Why not any other generation?” “What makes us better that we should not have to suffer for our faith?”
It’s not a matter of fairness, it’s a matter of God’s eternal purpose. I could ask, why did Christ have to come back in the year 4BC? Why did only that generation get to walk and talk with Jesus from Nazareth? God chose that time for a specific reason, and whether it’s because there was the Pax Romana, by which would facilitate the quick spread of the Gospel, or because the Roman’s themselves (as the ruling empire) would also have some future role to play, I don’t know. I only know that’s the way it happened.
Likewise, God will again break into human history in an equally grand fashion, to retrieve those who have been added into the ‘firstfruits’ (ie…we make up the body of Christ), because of the order, in which God has deemed the stages of redemption. (1 Corinthians 15)
We are at the end of the ages. I say ‘ages’, as opposed to ‘the age’, because there have been a lot of ‘ages’. We (in the Church age) have existed from Pentecost until today, and like all the other ages before us, had a beginning and at an unspecified time, will also have an end. Think of Pentecost as the beginning of that sliding scale, and we now (21st century believers) are at the other end of that sliding scale. Take a step back, and take in the mental picture and you can see the world around us ramping up exponentially. You can see how it’s only been within the last 100 years that we’ve had the technological breakthroughs, and the escalations of: war, disease, natural disasters, global governance, economic disparity, and a thousand other signs which point to a climactic conclusion, just over the horizon. On that sliding scale, we are mere micron from reaching the end of all things.
But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. Eph. 2:4-7 NKJV

Nos, it's not nonsense. If you ever had a rebellious teenager then you should know . Just as that rebellious teenager one day comes to the realization that dad was smarter than I thought he was , God wants his children to have a change of mind about him as well. You want your teenager to honor you. God wants us to honor him also. We must come to the end of ourselves . Just as christ prayed in the garden ( father not my will but thine be done ) . He honored the father.
