"get ready, get organized, get moving, get doing, and get Gawd."
Which Gawd do you have in mind, my friend?
2,000+ years, many more if you count all the pagan religions before Jeebus, and still not a single convincing reason to believe in the existence of any god, gods, demigods, souls, spirits, magic, any form of afterlife or other divine…

The debate about the supernatural should have been settled thousands of years ago. It’s unfalsifiable in reality, it doesn't exist and you can't prove a negative. But here we are still. Bogged down because of the influence of irrational religions.
“Did Jesus resurrect?” “Yep!” “Is he still alive?” “Yep!” “Cool, then can I see him?”
My favourite parts of the Bible are where Jesus is talking to God, himself, and no one else is around ~ and his conversation is quoted in the Bible. LOL
Why do Christian's expect a book written by unknown authors in a variety of languages, that was translated, rewritten, edited countless times is evidence for anything? It's just a book.
What Jesus is supposed to have commanded is no more than what some religious cultist made up a couple of centuries after "Jeebus" is supposed to have lived!
Every statement of "Jesus commanded" needs to start with "My old book says Jesus commanded"

It's all good brother, i once believed as you do. I cannot imagine how, but who knows, maybe one day i'll go back to believing as you do. It's a faith thing, something I once mocked, and now I revere.
It's just a rollercoaster ride as Bill Hicks said. Whatever comes next, comes next. In the meantime, my belief helps bring out the best in me and gives me comfort. I hope your beliefs do the same for you. It's all good.
I have faith that farting pixies live in the bottom of my garden.
And I have as much evidence for my claim as you have that Jeebus was divine.
Faith is not a reliable pathway to Truth.
There is NOTHING one cannot believe based on faith.
Knowledge is not something you simply assert; knowledge is demonstrated.
If I get on an aeroplane and the pilot says he’s using faith to fly us; I’m getting off. Only in religion is faith considered knowledge.
Imagine doctors performing a surgery doing their operation based on faith.
Not even religious based hospitals have a faith healer on their staff.
All my knowledge is based on evidence and rational thinking.
You are lying if you say you don't do likewise. IE when crossing the road.
There is only one place you don't rely on evidence and rational thinking.
When it comes to the divine. Thats why you can believe all this bullshit.
Sorry, for me at this point pretending to respect people’s religious beliefs is an exercise in futility. I do not respect people who CHOOSE to be gullible and uneducated - and try to foist that nonsense onto me.

“We’ll, it’s complicated…”
Something tells me today will be no different.
Jesus commanded us to love one another and to do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
That’s good enough for me.
Agree to disagree.
Nope! That’s NOT good enough for me.
We don't even know if "Jesus" even existed, TriTorch.
