First off, I'm going to say a few things. Yes, I categorized this as news. Second, I believe Jesus existed. Not as a holy being, but as a good, respectable guy who preached his religion, as a historical figure . But, using the Bible's own logic, I'm going to try and collapse the whole holy image of Jesus and leave the picture of a man. Imperfect, sure, a religious dude, but I don't have a problem with religious people. I was raised Christian (my parents don't know I'm an atheist), but off of the idea that Jesus was not perfect.
NOTE: This whole delicate article is balancing on the fact that most Christians believe in the Holy Trinity.

A simple list of the Ten Commandments is soon going to topple the whole image of Jesus.

NOTE II- I use a summary of each Commandment, not the whole thing

1- I am the LORD thy god, and you shall have no other gods before me.

Ok, what's up with this?! Are these commandments actually implying that there is more than one god? I thought you all were monotheistic? Oh, well. It has nothing to do with Jesus anyway. So far Jesus, your divinity is safe.

2- You shall not make yourself into a god.

Wait just a minute. Lemme clear some things up. Jesus was Jewish. He worshipped the same god that Christians do. AKA, himself. He worshipped himself. He broke the second commandment. HA! There goes one commandment.

3- Do not take the Lord's name in vain.

OK, I know Jesus didn't break that one, but REALLY? Why would he give a crap if someone says his name with a sucky attitude? Wow. Murder's WAY down on the list, but not taking his name in vain is number THREE? Just wow.

4- Keep the Sabbath day holy.

You're good this time, Jesus. But next time *evil laugh*...

5- Honor your mother and father

Maybe you are good this time, Jesus.

6- You shall not murder.

And......here comes the fun! Like I said, this whole thing is based off of the Holy Trinity, Jesus being God and God being Jesus. Jesus/God killed millions of people, and we forgive them, the survivors saying "God is good!" And they say we're the devil worshipping wackos...

7- You shall not commit adultery

Jesus/God impregnated a married woman, and nobody gave a crap about that. All I have to say

8- You shall not steal.

Jesus, you're good that time too.

9- You shall not lie

He didn't lie

10- You shall not be jealous.

I don't remember anything about him being jealous, but if you find something, make a comment.

Thank you for reading this and please spread the idea. I respect and believe in Jesus as a historical person, but anything other than that is crap to me.

Oh, and to the hater Christians who are lurking around this club waiting to prey on another piece of "ignorance". You'll probably say Jesus is a special case. Well, he came to serve, not be served. He obviously didn't want any special treatment.

"As an atheist, you will occasionally meet a non-atheist who wishes to argue against your belief system. If you are interested in discussing the matter, you may want to prepare yourself by learning these simple responses to common anti-atheist arguments.


The Bible says that atheism is wrong.

"The Bible also says some guy's donkey talked."

If you believe in God and are wrong, then it's no big deal, but if you don't believe in God and are wrong, you'll be punished eternally, so it's not a good idea to be an atheist.
