你看看去啊。圣经,纯粹放屁!处处经不起推敲。 他们就告诉你, That is 盲信。目的,说白了就是忽悠你:交钱~~! 牧师,有几个好东西?大忽悠啊。巧舌如簧,就是一个目的:money, your money! 顺便强奸未成年少女,还有少男。没错,变态的,都是披着人皮的:牧!师!国内,防着党委书记,国外放着牧师!都是:职业骗子!!
George Calin等革命前辈早就总结归纳过了: I have a problem with the Ten Commandments. Here it is: Why are there ten? We don't need that many. I think the list of commandments was deliberately and artificially inflated to get it up to ten. It's clearly a padded list. Here's how it happened: About five thousand years ago, a bunch of religious and political hustlers got together to figure out how they could control people and keep them in line. They knew people were basically stupid and would believe anything they were told, so these guys announced that God— God personally—had given one of them a list of Ten Commandments that he wanted everyone to follow. They claimed the whole thing took place on a mountaintop, when no one else was around. But let me ask you something: When these guys were sittin' around the tent makin' all this up, why did they pick ten? Why ten? Why not nine, or eleven? I'll tell you why. Because ten sounds important. Ten sounds official. They knew if they tried eleven, people wouldn't take them seriously. People would say, "What're you kiddin' me? The Eleven Commandments? Get the fuck outta here!" But ten! Ten sounds important. Ten is the basis for the decimal system; it's a decade. It's a psychologically satisfying number: the top ten; the ten most wanted; the ten best-dressed. So deciding on Ten Commandments was clearly a marketing decision. And it's obviously a bullshit list. In truth, it's a politic; document, artificially inflated to sell better. I'm going to show you how you can reduce the number of commandments and come up with a list that's a bit more logical and realistic. We'll start with the first three, and I'll use the Roman Catholic version because those are the ones I was fed as a little boy. • I AM THE LORD THY GOD, THOU SHALT NOT HAVE STRANGE GODS BEFORE ME. • THOU SHALT NOT TAKE THE NAME OF THE LORD THY GOD IN VAIN. • THOU SHALT KEEP HOLY THE SABBATH. Okay, right off the bat, the first three commandments—pure bullshit "Sabbath day," "Lord's name," "strange gods." Spooky language. Spooky language designed to scare and control primitive people. In no way does superstitious mumbo jumbo like this apply to the lives of intelligent, civilized human in the twenty-first century. You throw out the first three commandments, am you're down to seven. •HONOR THY FATHER AND MOTHER. .................
建议版上信教的朋友都读一下宪法第一修正案:明确美国是政教分离的国家! 《美利坚合众国宪法》第一修正案(英语:First Amendment to the United States Constitution)简称“第一修正案”(Amendment I),禁止美国国会制订任何法律以确立国教;妨碍宗教自由;剥夺言论自由;侵犯新闻自由与集会自由;干扰或禁止向政府请愿的权利。该修正案于1791年12月15日获得通过,是美国权利法案中的一部分,使美国成为一个在宪法中明文不设国教,并保障宗教自由和言论自由的国家。 美国权利法案的制订最初是美国联邦党人为了减轻国内反联邦主义者对美国宪法的反对而做出的系列宪法修订案。最早的“第一修正案”仅用于美国国会制订的联邦法律,其解释范围也比现在的狭义许多。但是通过1925年的吉特罗诉纽约州案,美国最高法院基于美国宪法第十四修正案中的“正当法律程序”条款裁定“第一修正案”适用于美国联邦、州乃至各级政府的立法中。

这段话百看不厌,我再继续贴: •HONOR THY FATHER AND MOTHER. This commandment is about obedience and respect for authority; in other words it's simply a device for controlling people. The truth is, obedience and respect should not be granted automatically. They should be earned. They should be based on the parents' performance. Some parents deserve respect. Most of them don't. Period. We're down to six. Now, in the interest of logic—something religion has a really hard time with—I'm going to skip around the list a little bit: • THOU SHALT NOT STEAL. • THOU SHALT NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS. Stealing and lying. Actually, when you think about it, these two commandments cover the same sort of behavior: dishonesty. Stealing and lying. So we don't need two of them. Instead, we combine these two and call it "Thou shalt not be dishonest." Suddenly we're down to five. And as long as we're combining commandments I have two others that belong together: • THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTERY. • THOU SHALT NOT COVET THY NEIGHBOR'S WIFE. Once again, these two prohibit the same sort of behavior; in this case, marital infidelity. The difference between them is that coveting takes place in the mind. And I don't think you should outlaw fantasizing about someone else's wife, otherwise what's a guy gonna think about when he's waxing his carrot? But marital fidelity is a good idea, so I suggest we keep the idea and call this commandment "Thou shalt not be unfaithful." Suddenly we're down to four. And when you think about it further, honesty and fidelity are actually parts of the same overall value. So, in truth, we could combine the two honesty commandments with the two fidelity commandments, and, using positive language instead of negative, call the whole thing "Thou shalt always be honest and faithful." And now we're down to three. •THOU SHALT NOT COVET THY NEIGHBOR'S GOODS. This one is just plain stupid. Coveting your neighbor's goods is what keeps the economy going: Your neighbor gets a vibrator that plays "O Come All Ye Faithful," you want to get one, too. Coveting creates jobs. Leave it alone. You throw out coveting and you're down to two now: the big, combined honesty/fidelity commandment, and the one we haven't mentioned yet: •THOU SHALT NOT KILL. Murder. The Fifth Commandment. But, if you give it a little thought, you realize that religion has never really had a problem with murder. Not really. More people have been killed in the name of God than for any other reason. To cite a few examples, just think about Northern Ireland, the Middle East, the Crusades, the Inquisition, our own abortion-doctor killings and, yes, the World Trade Center to see how seriously religious people take Thou Shalt Not Kill. Apparently, to religious folks—especially the truly devout—murder is negotiable. It just depends on who's doing the killing and who's getting killed. And so, with all of this in mind, folks, I offer you my revised list of the Two Commandments: First: •THOU SHALT ALWAYS BE HONEST AND FAITHFUL, ESPECIALLY TO THE PROVIDER OF THY NOOKIE. And second: •THOU SHALT TRY REAL HARD NOT TO KILL ANYONE, UNLESS, OF COURSE, THEY PRAY TO A DIFFERENT INVISIBLE MAN THAN THE ONE YOU PRAY TO. Two is all you need, folks. Moses could have carried them down the hill in his pocket. And if we had a list like that, I wouldn't mind that brilliant judge in Alabama displaying it prominently in the courthouse wall. As long he included one additional commandment: •THOU SHALT KEEP THY RELIGION TO THYSELF!

你是说宗教是贫穷和落后的结果,但我怎么觉得宗教是贫穷落后的原因?
我觉得是原因也是结果,就是一个loop
我们大华府这里的 教会, 各种类型的你能想象到的 教会,清真寺,印度人的一种 庙,遍布各个角落的 韩国人的教会,其中还有规模大的吓人的 韩国教会,最近北维又冒出来一种 建筑,乍一看是很 现代的 以为是 娱乐中心的 一个机构,也是很大,走进一开,又是一种教会,不是很懂, 我们生活里的,不少非大陆国人 去教会,但是能感觉到 每个人 去教会 的 ”虔诚度”,需求也是有 千差万别别的,
所以你的结论 不对,宗教是 美国的 立国之本,渗透在 生活里的每一部分,穷的地区信教,福的地区也信教,是你本人不信教,所以,你用你预设的 对宗教的 观点 在套你的结论。

。。。。科学能解释的事情是很多,但是科学不能解释的事情就太多太多了。本来科学就是从宗教发展而来的。科学的尽头是宗教。
如果你 和别的 社区 族裔群体 经常接触的话,
比如孩子的童子军,志愿者 等等 各类活动,聊天 有的时候 很有可能 聊任何的话题,有的时候 会 间接地 聊到信仰,
就是有意无意的,
中国人一般内心默认自己是 无神论,但是 佛祖 菩萨 也是神,彻底的 硬核 无神论的 国人 我认为是 很少见很少见的,
但是,和 老外群体交流的时候,如果 不慎触即到 宗教的话题,哪怕就是 有一搭没一搭的 说一句,
不要 直接说自己的是 无神论 atheist,当然媒体上 有一些 名人 专家 公开说自己是 atheist,
普通人的生活里,你对美国人说自己是 atheist,这个只能达到 很负面的效果,一个完完全全 不信 任何的 神的 人,是 很可怕的,
包括经常来这里 求 bless 的同学,其实也是相信 有一种 祈祷祝福的 能量的 存在。
在富裕地区宗教可能提升人的精神。在穷困不发达地区宗教则常常成为老百姓的鸦片。
沿着 Braddock road 一路 然后右拐上 Shirley gate
先看到 路的左手边,是这个 叫做 Fairfax church 的,下面是 鸟瞰图
然后路的右手边,是这个 我的理解现代 风格 的教会,我开始一直以为是个什么 公司 机构,或者 活动中心,走进一看,是个 教会
然后右拐上 Shirley gate road, 马上就能看到一个巨大的 清真寺,叫做 北维清真寺,规模很大
然后这个 巨大的 清真寺的 旁边 不远处,是一个 犹太人的 私校,叫做 Gesher Jewish day school, 从 pre-K 一直上到 初中结束。
应该是有基督教冲突的国家。立国先贤,正是在新教和旧教在欧洲冲突的受害者,所以立国的时候明文规定政教分离
的确是原因。 世界范围看,更是这样。 圣经满嘴放屁,逻辑荒唐。骗小孩子都显得弱智。 各个教都声称教主唯一,这不是矛盾吗? 刚好说明他们都是扯淡。 远之明这种垃圾在国内是共产主义 到了美国就是神神神啦 180度大转弯 就是个卖嘴的强奸犯啊
宗教是美国的立国之? 这话就是放屁!
全是放屁,每一个字都反应你是弱智
说的好。信教和抽鸦片一样,甚至更加恶劣。 有些二货一说信教就说你看看美国多强大,美国人信教啊 这是傻逼逻辑,牵强赴会。 美国人还啥人呢,所以杀人无罪?
在哪里都是扯淡 根本就不应该存在 除了骗钱就是强奸 藏污纳垢。 讲经的个个不怀好意
我这里举的例子,这四个 宗教相关的机构, 传统教会,现代教会,犹太教私校,清真寺, 仅仅是在一条 不到 2 mile 的路的两边,这路边还有一个 很大的 印度人的 庙,我没找到具体信息,整个地区的教会更是多得多,
像我家附近,那种 居民的林子社区里,遍布的,服务一个居民区地区的教会我就不算了,那个 有很大规模的,也有不大的,不计其数
另外,大华府DMV地区,不敢说 是个 洛杉矶纽约 一样的 国际大都市,但是这里的 各个方面的资源收入 也是全美 可以数得上的 最好的,
所以,教会的数量,信教的群体,和一个地方 穷还是富,没有直接关系,对于,中国人 本身不是从一个 宗教气氛 浓厚的 环境长大的,
最好 be open minded. 不是说 要去信教,信不信教是 自由,但是,至少在美国,多多走出去 看看 社会里是这么样子,不要在那里 凭借 想象,因为大多数 想象出来的,都是错的。
你是什么东西? 美国还强奸幼女呢 还有枪击案呢 川普团队全是强奸犯呢 你傻到了美国啥都好的无脑地步啦?
只有你是个明白人。 手动点赞。其余都是傻逼。不冤枉它们,因为无脑
你这是受什么刺激了
礼拜六 大早晨的 满嘴 不干不净的? 真可怕
谁和你说美国是嫉妒教国家?宪法里面说嫉妒教是国教了吗
我怀疑,任何宗教的起源很可能都是由一些所谓的精神领袖发起的,他们通过解释一些神秘的奥秘来谋生。
也许直到今天!
通过试图将宗教与许多其他问题联系起来,也许只是发明了另一个因果循环!
?
受你刺激啊。haha 你算是一个比较有头脑的网友啦 我对你还是很尊重的 没想到如此愚昧。惊讶到了 刺激到了 抱歉。谢谢
世界的确有许多科学解释不了的东西 但是不表示满嘴跑火车各种教就正确。 各位生病别去医院啊 祈祷啊。简直就是骗小孩子的把戏 圣经满嘴放屁 逻辑混乱 你又不是没有看到 什么水变酒?放屁!

我们以前有几个同事就这样,而我们的活 很多时候就是 需要晚上加班
最后都给挪到其他的岗位上去,
犹太学校,教会,也是他们的 一个社交的方式,封闭圈子的 社交方式
印度人也是 比较 严格的信教,或者严格地在他们自己的 宗教圈子里 庙里,度过周末和各种节日
可以信教啊 那也不是基督教啊。 说明什么❓ 说明人家自由 既然自由,你也可以啥也不信啊。是不是? 基督教如果是正确的,唯一的 那以死烂教为啥不能说自己也正确呢? 如果都正确,那就冲突了啊 因为都声称自己的教主唯一
世界本无事 教会始作俑 各种教,包括毛自比作神 事后证明都是祸国殃民的胡扯蛋 骗傻子
哈哈哈,幽默。谢谢!
因此,上帝可以存在,这取决于定义。

过节可以啊 各种名人生日也当作了节日 就是一种娱乐么
美国人也是孩子随父亲姓 女的嫁给男的就改姓 这些都是陋习 尤其是女的改姓 还有,美国不实行国际度量衡 都是陋习 所以不能说因为美国发达,而美国人信教 所以上帝就是存在的 而且就是耶稣。 这种逻辑不对。 就像毛主席说的就是对的 事实证明毛说的大部分不对 祸国殃民
宪法里没有god 一个字,立国的先贤都是宗教受害者,逃难来的,所以规定政教分离。一帮信教的整天说宗教是立国之本,什么理由? 越信教的地方,种族歧视越严重,所以歧视华人的法律法规都是神棍州出来的。美国现在信教的人口比例越来越少,是对的,所以美国经济一直向上走。
有头脑。 前几年,美国政府把基督教请出小学课堂,基督教徒咬牙切齿。说明基督教自私,只关心自己利益。 什么屁话都别说,你再来一次水变酒,我立马信教。不是说耶稣无时不在吗?拉出来变一次啊! 圣经,侮辱各位智商。就是放屁!
说的对,美国是政教分离的
yes.
Otherwise, that is Iran!
这是我亲眼见证。教会的所谓见证,除了培养了一批昧着良心说谎的人,其余的作用没有看到。 华人在国内齐声高喊:社会主义好!就是集体说谎,指鹿为马。到了美国,集体再撒谎,只是地点改成了教会而已。
人说的是ppwq那个
纽约有很多那种大胡子保守虔诚的犹太人,但小扎那种就是改良派,没有什么条条框框。犹太宗教和民族文化是不可分割的,但如果真完全遵守教义,是没法过现代生活的。比如日落后不能和家族以外男性在一起,不要以为穆斯林多奇葩,犹太教才是祖宗,基督教也是附庸,用的都是同一套规矩。
教徒早就有话术等着你: “神另有美意,凡人不要揣摩”
什么狗屎逻辑? 极左导致极右?
bible 里有说水变油? 真的么?
这是睁眼放屁!!侮辱我的智商。骗小孩子呢? 我倒是发现了:谁信神,谁死的快,死的早~ ---因为这样,你就和神一起在天上了啊。笑死~~
所以,想早死的,赶紧信神。真的,不是我诅咒你们, 你们那个智商,活在世上也是浪费了粮食啊。
教会,各种宗教的 教会
是 美国人/移民 平时生活的 一种 社交 方式,可以这么理解
自己不要一方面 反对 极端话,
自己 又在那里 极端地去 评价 信教的事情
把耶稣当作娱乐就行。谁信谁傻,谁信谁早死。真的啊。这是我的见证。因为本来就没有的事。庸人自扰之。
美国大城市去教会的比例远低于农村,你要考虑到人口密度的差别。
总体上,20%的美国人宣称自己经常去教会,30%的人从来不去,剩下一半偶尔去。
大部分人“酒肉穿肠过,佛祖心中留”,也不至于坚称没有佛祖,偶尔也会拜一拜求点好处,但没读过佛经,也不知道里面具体讲了啥,让日常生活都按宗教指导,没那个毅力也坚持不下来。

• THOU SHALT KEEP HOLY THE SABBATH.
Okay, right off the bat, the first three commandments—pure bullshit "Sabbath day," "Lord's name," "strange gods." Spooky language. Spooky language designed to scare and control primitive people.

《美利坚合众国宪法》第一修正案(英语:First Amendment to the United States Constitution)简称“第一修正案”(Amendment I),禁止美国国会制订任何法律以确立国教;妨碍宗教自由;剥夺言论自由;侵犯新闻自由与集会自由;干扰或禁止向政府请愿的权利。该修正案于1791年12月15日获得通过,是美国权利法案中的一部分,使美国成为一个在宪法中明文不设国教,并保障宗教自由和言论自由的国家。
美国权利法案的制订最初是美国联邦党人为了减轻国内反联邦主义者对美国宪法的反对而做出的系列宪法修订案。最早的“第一修正案”仅用于美国国会制订的联邦法律,其解释范围也比现在的狭义许多。但是通过1925年的吉特罗诉纽约州案,美国最高法院基于美国宪法第十四修正案中的“正当法律程序”条款裁定“第一修正案”适用于美国联邦、州乃至各级政府的立法中。
That whosoever believeth in the church of emacs should not perish, but have eternal life
•HONOR THY FATHER AND MOTHER.
This commandment is about obedience and respect for authority; in other words it's simply a device for controlling people. The truth is, obedience and respect should not be granted automatically. They should be earned. They should be based on the parents' performance. Some parents deserve respect. Most of them don't. Period. We're down to six.
Now, in the interest of logic—something religion has a really hard time with—I'm going to skip around the list a little bit:
• THOU SHALT NOT STEAL.
• THOU SHALT NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS.
Stealing and lying. Actually, when you think about it, these two commandments cover the same sort of behavior: dishonesty. Stealing and lying. So we don't need two of them. Instead, we combine these two and call it "Thou shalt not be dishonest." Suddenly we're down to five.
And as long as we're combining commandments I have two others that belong together:
• THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTERY.
• THOU SHALT NOT COVET THY NEIGHBOR'S WIFE.
Once again, these two prohibit the same sort of behavior; in this case, marital infidelity. The difference between them is that coveting takes place in the mind. And I don't think you should outlaw fantasizing about someone else's wife, otherwise what's a guy gonna think about when he's waxing his carrot?
But marital fidelity is a good idea, so I suggest we keep the idea and call this commandment "Thou shalt not be unfaithful."
Suddenly we're down to four.
And when you think about it further, honesty and fidelity are actually parts of the same overall value. So, in truth, we could combine the two honesty commandments with the two fidelity commandments, and, using positive language instead of negative, call the whole thing "Thou shalt always be honest and faithful." And now we're down to three.
•THOU SHALT NOT COVET THY NEIGHBOR'S GOODS.
This one is just plain stupid. Coveting your neighbor's goods is what keeps the economy going: Your neighbor gets a vibrator that plays "O Come All Ye Faithful," you want to get one, too. Coveting creates jobs. Leave it alone.
You throw out coveting and you're down to two now: the big, combined honesty/fidelity commandment, and the one we haven't mentioned yet:
•THOU SHALT NOT KILL.
Murder. The Fifth Commandment. But, if you give it a little thought, you realize that religion has never really had a problem with murder. Not really. More people have been killed in the name of God than for any other reason.
To cite a few examples, just think about Northern Ireland, the Middle East, the Crusades, the Inquisition, our own abortion-doctor killings and, yes, the World Trade Center to see how seriously religious people take Thou Shalt Not Kill. Apparently, to religious folks—especially the truly devout—murder is negotiable. It just depends on who's doing the killing and who's getting killed.
And so, with all of this in mind, folks, I offer you my revised list of the Two Commandments:
First:
•THOU SHALT ALWAYS BE HONEST AND FAITHFUL, ESPECIALLY TO THE PROVIDER OF THY NOOKIE.
And second:
•THOU SHALT TRY REAL HARD NOT TO KILL ANYONE, UNLESS, OF COURSE, THEY PRAY TO A DIFFERENT INVISIBLE MAN THAN THE ONE YOU PRAY TO.
Two is all you need, folks. Moses could have carried them down the hill in his pocket. And if we had a list like that, I wouldn't mind that brilliant judge in Alabama displaying it prominently in the courthouse wall. As long he included one additional commandment:
•THOU SHALT KEEP THY RELIGION TO THYSELF!
那肯定
本身 信教的 虔诚度,也是因人而异,很难量化的,
但是,直接就下结论,越信教的,就是 越穷越落后的,
这本身就是,毫无根据,完全凭借想象,
本身像表达,信教/宗教极端,与落后愚昧有关联,
但实际上,自己的表达方式 就是另外一种极端
你说的没错,宗教本来就是社交目的为主,一般对于新移民、以及偏远地区更重要,要抱团。
所以大城市本地人没有这种需求,自己一栋楼的邻居都不一定打招呼,去教会的人自然就少了。
回到题主的问题,红州越发极端,部分原因也是因为生活痛苦,回归宗教寻求安慰。上帝教核心就是痛苦是神的安排,最后你会到好地方去的,佛教讲的是下辈子会有好事轮到你。人类上升期,像古希腊古罗马一样喜欢享乐,被奴役的犹太人才会用宗教洗脑自己。
另外其实只有奇葩的宗教才会万世永存,是个选择门槛,和兄弟会hazing差不多,温和的都会逐步世俗化和瓦解。
Liked "宗教本来就是社交目的为主"
这才是美国发达的真正动力和原因,而不是盲信哪个教。那是中东--落后和战乱的地方!
政权干犯宗教信仰自由,或者神权干犯世俗政权权力,都是错误的。
所以公立学校强制读圣经就不对,而歧视基督信仰也一样不对
大家如果在乡下买点地买个房子居住一下,其实比较容易理解为什么乡村地区生活风格就注定了信教和持枪的比例高
乡村的生活里人和人的物理距离比较远,人是社会性动物,喜欢聚团才有安全感,持枪就是弥补这种安全感的不足。而教会教友之间以及教众牧师之间的纽带,是乡村社交生活和精神生活的重要组分,否则人和人的距离就更远了。

世界上本来就没有不信教的国家,共产主义也是一种宗教。我们就看欧美内部,新大陆国家(为了逃避宗教迫害开发的),旧大陆的新教国家(英国德国),旧大陆的天主教国家(西班牙意大利),你看谁的发展更好?
信教本身没有问题,新教说的就是每个人都可以自己直接和上帝交流,不需要通过教会牧师,以及天主教这样的institution。通过institution胁迫他人按照自己的想法做事,这就是压迫,谁敢说自己对上帝旨意的解读才是正确的,尤其通过行政和立法,完全是逆施倒行,五月花本来是为了逃离这样的世界。
Agreed. 共产主义也是一种宗教。
没有这些精神鸦片,就没有神棍(比政客恶劣多了)和大忽悠发挥的场地了。
