Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Jesus is God

The only reason you are a Christian is because your parents are, not because it is Truth.

Genetic fallacy. I do not have the same faith as my parents. Also, the same can be said about Atheism: you're only atheist because you live in a secular society. If you're in Saudi Arabia, then you won't be an Atheist, you'll be a Muslim. So how can Atheism be true?

I'm an atheist because I went to a Catholic school and have seen enough to know sky fairies aren't real and it's a pretty good scam to make money.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 3 weeks ago

That's because the Roman Church is about money and tradition. They fail to catechise.

I'd say most outspoken atheists come from religious families - same as ex-smokers are more vocal/aggressive about smoking than those who never did.

What about Allah?

[–] [email protected] -3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

There are a load of problems with Islam and the Qur'an, but I'll keep it concise to how the Qur'an disproves itself. The Qur'an makes these points: The Gospel is the word of allah: 3:3-4 No one can change allah's words: 18:27 Strongly implies that the Christians had the Gospel when the Qur'an was written: 7:157 Christians should judge by the Gospel: 5:47

The Qur'an also denies the death of Jesus and His divinity, which the Bible claims. So it's in obvious contradiction. So judging by the Gospel, Islam is false. And the Gospel cannot be corrupted as the Qur'an recommends the Gospel and claims allah's words cannot be corrupted.

Paul also gives us this warning: Galatians 1:8

But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed.

Considering the Qur'an apparently was revealed to Mohammed by an "angel".... Yeah....

What about the many contractions in the gospels? For example:

Wouldn't it be better to just accept that your faith works for you, and other people's faith (or lack of faith) works for them?
