U.S.A.!!!!!!!!!

YOU DID IT AMERICA! GAY MARRIAGE IS NOW LEGAL IN ALL 50 STATES! WAY TO FREAKING GO!!!
I didn't think I'd live to see the day, but here I am, still in high school and love is legal. I'm now going to post a bunch of pictures that were on my IG feed.

 

Congrats EA ^^

 

I'm not American though. Just happy.

 

Americans aren't happy? ;-;

 

Huh?
I was confused by your congratulations because I did nothing worthy of it.

 

Forcefully deleted my post? You support gay equality but don't support my comment ? Pathetic

 

This thread is a celebration and I don't want any comments on discrimination. Thanks.

 

Because that has nothing to do with this. Stop using these things to try and save your shit.

Guess this is a pretty happy day for you. Good day :,)

 

All I said was "Everyone is entitled to their own opinion even if that means going against this". Shame on all these people that believe in same sex marriage but are too stubborn to support a comment.

I have nothing to say to you, when you LOOK like that.

 

Your comment*. Dude, look at yourself. You're using a rare American achievement just to try and save your sad post.

 

Not supporting marriage equality isn't an opinion, it's discrimination. End of story. It's irrelevant to the thread and I don't want any negativity. Not up for discussion.

 

The second post was to EA. Don't know what you meant but if you're so desperate do this on another place, not here

 

You're judging him based upon his physical appearance? What the hell?! Have you really no better argument??

 

Oh.
Why don't you post a picture of yoursel, @Daniel Logic?

No more arguments? Wow killjoy

Anyways, congrats @EA_Sharks cx

 

The argument is over. Please. Let it die, let it die, let it shrivel up and die! C'mon who's with me?

 

He did it.

 

Death? Yeaa!

 

Not really since I was quoting a song from the Lorax but meh.

 

Lmao really? He didn't have to do it, but peer pressure got to him I guess. But, yes let it die.

I was thinking that xD. The midget who tryna kill them trees.

Never an honest word, but that was when I ruled the world.

 

...............

 

Thought this was appropriate. A lil' bit of propoganda wouldn't hurt, now would it?

 

On a side note, to those people who think Barack Obama is a terrible leader who doesn't know what he is doing, he's actually really good. People think of Obama negatively mainly because Congress won't let him help change the U.S. Obama has tried improving the Healthcare system in America greatly (to make it free and be available to everyone), and it is believed by some that Congress is stooping him from doing so. I'm not saying Congress is bad either. Michelle Obama is mostly just trying to get the children here in the U.S. to be physically fit, but I disagree with her school-lunch system entirely. Now, the whole Obama thing with Congress is highly controversial, and I heard this second hand.

Disclaimer: Not saying anyone in this thread made mention about how bad Obama is, I felt like it just needed to be said.

 

when I watched that I felt like I was watching a movie in my History class. xD

 

You didn't have to change it. But you did.

 

GUESS WHO'S HAPPY?!

THIS GIRL :O

 

#Savage

 

Felt like this fit well into the theme of this post

@EA_Sharks
Revolution! Rebellion!

Pukey :,)

 

Great news, at camp today me and my fellow ca's were cheering when then notification came on our phones.

 

California also now disregards 'personal opinion' when asking parents if they can vaccinate their children. I would say the world is getting better but next year the Republicans will probably get into power and screw everything up :/

Nubbles.

Dream of Californication.

 

Just a puppet on a lonely string,
Oh who would ever want to be king?

Just roll with it.

 

Not on my thread. This is a celebration of a historical moment in US history.

 

There are times when I don't want to live in America, due to shooting, racism, etc.
But this, This makes me extremely proud to live here.

 

YES, OMG YEA!!!THANKS OBAMA XD

 

Congrats to USA! Sure I have an opinion against it, but who am I to judge lol, as it is my own beliefs. I'm still proud to be American. We now have freedom of marriage. I only had an opinion against it because it was against Christianity. But some of you are not Christians so...yeah. We are still American. We have freedom and the awesome 2nd Amendment. But, yeah. Congratulations to all LGBT's in America!

 

stp[ being stupid.

 

Nothing to offend you, and I respect what you said... But why do you paraphrase a book written thousands and thousands of years ago? Just curious. (I respect your opinion, just a question)

 

He asks while paraphrasing Macklemore :3

 

:,) Oh, you

 

Oh, me

 

Obama = #1

I want him to stay forever.

 

Anyone want to trade Obama for Stephen Harper??

 

I was trying to be nice -.-

 

Start something and EA will remove your posts.

 

Chill guys, he was trying to be kind.

 

No, we love Obama!!!

 

Thank you

 

Because it is a sacred book. The Bible is the foundational truth that teaches the history of the universe, the origin of sin, the reason for death, morality, and so on. Apart from God's Word, mankind would never learn the all-important message of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

That's the way to change it up.

 

Okay. No arguments. You both stated your opinions. kthx. If anyone tries to start something (I recognize that Jace is not) your post will be deleted.

 

=]

#EA_Sharks for top mod/queen of mods.

 

❤️

 

The way you Mod is the best way tbh.

 

I figured somebody would have to know that song... XD

 

Don't blush.

 

I can now go ❤️FULL HOMO❤️ in all 50 states yay!

 

*imagines EA gagging of excitement*

 

Yes but do you understand that it was most-likely changed throughout generations? There's no way a story can go 3-generations without being changed. (It took about 3 generations to finally be written down)
You ever play that game, in class or something, where everyone sits in a circle and you say a sentence, and it gets passed around... It usually changed. And that's just a sentence. Imagine a whole story!
Most likely, men changed the story to how they wanted it to be. Not trying to be disrespectful, just stating my opinion.

 

Good for you =]

 

They wouldn't exactly change something so ancient and holy.



There is a theory in the world today that the Bible has been changed over the thousands of years since it was originally written to the point that we cannot know what was originally written.

This is a popular theory among the Muslim community, Catholics, and others. The basic idea is shown in the chart to the right. The changes either came because of mistakes by the copyists or on purpose so that it would say what they wanted it to say. It would make sense for the rulers of the Jews over thousands of years to make changes to their Bible so that it would say what they wanted for the people at the time.

There is good evidence, however, that this has not happened.

First, one must look at what the scribes (those who made the copies) were thinking about when they made their copies. To the Jewish mind, the Old Testament was the word of God. This meant that they were very careful when they copied it. We do not have knowledge of the system the scribes used prior to AD100, but at that time, the Talmudists had taken over the responsibility of copying the Old Testament. They had a set of rules which were quite strict. The most important rules include not copying even the smallest mark from memory. They always had to look at the scroll or codex from which they were copying before they wrote a letter. They also had to make sure that the scroll or codex they were copying from was “certified” as a good copy.1

In about AD500, the group of Jewish scribes known as the Masoretes took over the responsibility of copying the Old Testament.

They had even stricter rules in that they numbered the letters in each book and knew the middle letters of each book, so they could check the accuracy of their copying down to the number of letters that they copied.

These rules grew out of a deep respect for the Old Testament as the word of God, which was something the scribes shared from the beginning. This shows that they were very careful in making their copies.

Another strong evidence that the Old Testament has not been changed over time so that we do not know what was originally written is the comparison of the Masoretic Text with the Dead Sea Scrolls. The Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered in 1947 and some of the scrolls have been dated to be as old as from 125BC. Before these were discovered, the oldest copy of the Old Testament we had was the Masoretic Text from AD916.

When comparing a copy of Isaiah from 125BC with the Isaiah in the Masoretic Text, they discovered something strange. Nothing of importance was different. The prophecies about Jesus were still there. There were a few insignificant differences in wording, but the content was the same.

How do we know that the New Testament has not been changed over time? First, you could talk about the respect that the monks and other copyists had for the New Testament as the word of God. But there is something much more scientific that we can look at. We have thousands of copies from the New Testament that are very old. This makes the chart of the copying process different from what we have above.



As careful as copyists may be, when something is copied by hand over thousands of years, mistakes are bound to happen. That is what makes the many copies that can be compared so important.

If more than one copyist makes a mistake in copying a book, they are not likely to make the mistake in the same place, unless they collaborate together and purposefully make the change. When making a comparison of many different manuscripts from many different areas, scholars are able to find where changes have been made, whether on purpose or by accident. You can illustrate this with John 1:1as with the chart below.

In the beginning was the word. And the word was with God and the word was God.
At the end was the word. And the word was with God and the word was God.
In the beginning was the Lord. And the Lordwas with God and the Lord was God.
In the beginning was the word. And the word was with God and the word was Jesus.
When you examine the 4 different copies of John 1:1, you see that there are changes to all but the first. However, you can still find what the original said by comparing them. You can see that all but one reads “beginning” instead of “end” so you can see that “beginning” is the original, and so on. When you include manuscripts from many different places, at different times, you can know with even more certainty what is original. The science of Textual Criticism has many other ways that they use to find the original wording of any old document when they can compare several manuscripts that have been put into practice by the compilers and translators of the Bible today.

We can have the utmost confidence that the Bible we have today accurately reflects what the authors originally wrote. We can have even more confidence that it has not been changed if we believe that it is the word of God. Why would God let His word be changed to the point that we don’t know what He said? We know that there have been copyists errors, but God has made sure that we have everything we need that pertains to life and godliness and nothing has been changed to keep us from having that. I believe the Bible I read today accurately reflects the original writings.

Website The Text is From:
http://biblemirror.com/bible-study/articles/bible-not-changed.html

So, yes the Bible has been changed, however it still reflects on the things that were changed so nothing from the original Bible would be left out.

 

If y'all wanna talk about religion, do it in a convo lel.

Meanwhile, atheism and rational reasoning ftw. Reason above all else

 

ALERT: THIS IS NOT A THREAD ON RELIGIOUS BELIEFS. IT IS A CELEBRATION. DO NOT RAIN ON THE PARADE.

 

:,,,,)

 

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111!

Do you like my profile pic? >.>

 

Nice copy and paste.
Anyways dude, I have family who are Christian, so I have nothing against it. It's just I believe that that many things were changed. Intentional or not.

 

I did say I got the text from the website below. And yes, things were changed from the Bible. Even though they were changed, they still have the same meaning compared to the original text. Anyways, back on topic. LGBT

 

FINALLY!!! I JUST WITNESSED THIS TODAY!!!

 

Even though am Catholic and this is against my religion, Thank God this finally happened .

 

Lol irony.

 

I was trying to word around that but I couldn't D:

 

And that is EXACTLY why I'm atheist

You've learned well cx

 

"So thankful that this finally happened"

 

Shh am not that smart :<

 

MLG, I respect you for having your own opinion! Most people follow the footsteps of their family... (Not sure if your family is all atheist or not) just saying!

 

My parents believe in a higher power but aren't all exaggerated religious. I really don't believe that though, and I really like rational explanations. Although I will admit I will get kinda paranoid after watching a paranormal video

Honestly, religion is like a temporary scab you get on a paper cut. The paper cut is an event, and the scab is religion. Usually, when people can't find the rational explanation for something, they substitute it with religion so they have some form of answer.

But I like the real answer. I'm not just the scab, I'm the actual skin that heals the paper cut. I always want the real, rational explanation. Honestly, most religions contain some degree of hypocrisy as well. Atheism is my way to go, it's who I am.

 

Respect.

 

Was that the second or third chorus? >_>
Road Toll.

Whenever I heard about the 'God created the world in 7 days ' story, I just think;
Oh, I suppose the dinosaurs were just on lunch break then right?

 

S.T.O.P. NOT ON MY THREAD YA BUMS!

 

Sorry sorry sorry :c

Ya heard the girl, stop!!!!!!!

 

Pls I beg. *breaks down crying*

 

Man isn't today exciting, even though it doesn't relate to me but it's really good.

 

Oh, I beg, I beg and plead singin',
Come out of things unsaid,
Shoot an apple off my head and a,
Trouble that can't be named,
A tiger's waiting to be tamed, singin'

Youuuuu
Are


Youuuuu
Are


Guess which Coldplay song this is c:

 

Marriage equality. Duh.

 

*facepalm* :,)

 

Screw the retards who went against this decision, "every child needs a mother and father".

 

Why was this not legalised many years ago?
If people want to marry same sex it's fine
I really don't get the people who are against it

 

Yeah.

 

Exactly. It has no effect on people. It's like saying "you can't eat a cookie because I'm on a diet."

 

Awkward moment when you were off topic as well.

 

Awkward moment when you shut the hell up ❤️

 

And that is how I know I won the argument. ;D

 

Yes please have him.....

 

As far as I know when I lived in a America he made our taxes go up..We lost everything.

But still he likes LGBT so I luv him.

No, we're going more than HOMO...

 

Your a lesbian.

????

 

Who?

 

Ea

 

I'm not entirely sure, she watches Glee though so atleast that's why I think she's happy about this.
