Stephen Colbert Biblical Copycat!
Stephen Colbert might be good, but hes no God. This little upstart of a sinner has been ripping off Gods funny stuff, and that cow wont fly senior. Not even the Daily Show, or The Colbert Report can expect to plagiarize the best selling book of all time, and expect to wait for the best part of a year before someone calls you on your BS! Especially with a ever-watching, divine, omni-remembering, omnipresent, and omni-humorous being in the arena. On more serious note, not only is this a skit on the similarity between Stephen Colberts (of Comedy Central, of Viacom) interview with Congressman Lynn Westmoreland (who after espousing the virtues of the ten commandments) can only name three of them, and the bit in the Bible (in all the gospels) where Jesus can only name 5 commandments. The real funny bit is its different in all the gospels, and Jesus names commandments that are not found in the old testament. Further the commandments that Jesus can name are the ones related to social behavior, and have little to do with religion. For instance you may thought Jesus (if he really were God) would have named, thou shalt have no Gods before me as important, but not a bit of it! The second role this video performs is inspired by Liberalviewer, whose channel moto is fight for fair use. Indeed both he and I share a common bond in that we have both successfully contested DMCAs filed by the multi-million dollar company Viacom. -Fight for Fair Use!

Actually, no it doesn’t.
Exodus 20:4

WEB
“You shall not make for yourselves an idol.”
BIBE
“You are not to make an image or picture of anything.”
@jalbroven91
You’re correct. A tatoo is inscribed. So it is therefore a graven image. =)
@L00NGB00W I always thought graven images meant tattoos
LOL. I’m an atheist, and I can name more commandments than that so called “christian”.
it actually says not to worship, not possess
OMNI-FAIL!!
@weazz This is the internet created by humans studying science not the bible, it was created using research not a hate mongering fictional piece of crap like the bible. THIS is the place for discussing imaginary Flying Spagetti Monsters and their pedophile priests.Churches lacking a modem is where god love is for not outside! cheers debeers, the earth belongs to humans instead of the other way around! look forward to your return to grade 9 biology class.
@weazz Matthew 5:17-19, Luke 16:17, Mark.7:9-13 [criticism for not following OT], 2 Timothy 3:16 [which fyi, OT scripture was already pretty set-in-stone by this point].
And these are only “don’t ignore Old Testament”. Not even direct contradictions and explicitly-failed prophecies.
Take your ignorance of your own text elsewhere.
@onijester56 The words of God do not contradict. As Jesus came after the people you chose to quote. By making his second covenant. But as I said you will never understand because you don’t want to. Take your Hate of God elsewhere.
[cont]
“God is required to issue death to us as wage for sin” So God is allowed to KILL DIRECTLY AND THROUGH OTHERS for WHATEVER HE DOES NOT LIKE just because HE DOES NOT LIKE IT? Why praise and SACRIFICE TO such a petty leader?
“But through Jesus we don’t have to become slaves to our sin.” The WORDS OF YOUR OWN GOD CONTRADICT THIS VERY STATEMENT! Deut 24:16, 2 Kings 14:6, Jer 31:29-30, and Ezekiel18:20 ALL state this point. Not to mention the HATE-FILLED ESSENCE of your ALL-LOVING God.
@weazz
Etymology:
*”Work”, from “weorc; worc”, meaning “deed; action”. Remained relatively the same.
*”Faith”, from “fides”, meaning “trust” of the sense ‘based on a promise’ [keep one's faith, etc]. The religious sense is a transfer of the meanings of “faith” and “belief”.
Definition:
*Work: activity directed toward making or doing something
*Faith: firm belief in something for which there is no proof
Each pair is neither intrinsically inclusive NOR exclusive.

@onijester56 Yes God is required to issue death to us as wage for sin, But through Jesus we don’t have to become slaves to our sin. You have not shown anything except your own ignorance to what I said. Again you try to spin, what was originally said. You continue carrying out your misrepresented context to carry on your rhetoric of hate. Have fun with that.
@weazz The “narrow path” is FOR A FACT (especially as you posit it) a seperation of acceptable and UNACCEPTABLE ACTIONS. One’s works ARE actions done by the person.
Disreagarding EVERY interpretations and EVERY diety, having faith in ANY god DOES NOT constitute EITHER a burden OR a removal of actions; hence NO PATH ASIDE FROM FAITH ITSELF.
And I took them IN CONTEXT, showing your ignorance and apologetics as what they are: bullshit. God punishes with, carries out, and commands death.
@onijester56 What you are doing is quote mining. You should also observe the 20/20 rule. In order to justify any one passage in scripture you must account for 20 verses before and 20 verses after to ensure you are not taking passages out of context, which you are trying to do with quote mining here to justify your attacks on what I am saying. Your argument is full of biased fallacies. Your first mistake is mistranslating what I am saying, your second mistake is mistranslating the bible.
@onijester56 You are implying that I refer to the narrow path as works. That is not the case nor did I ever make the connection. You however are trying to make the connection. The path is narrow is not a form of works, but a form of observance of God’s Laws. Following God’s laws is not works based salvation of any kind. You are not as good at spin as you would believe yourself to be. You keep trying to spin what I said, which is one of your great fallacies here.
[cont]
I repeatedly showed your argument is a non-sequitur. I even provided scripture showing that FAITH AND NOT WORKS is the way, contradicting your second point (that actions are needed) AND your third point (that faith and actions are tied).
LOGIC, primarily by the Null Hypothesis through a complete lack of evidence for ANY GOD, leads to LACKING A BELIEF.
Of course with YOUR statements and then YOUR scripture (at YOUR request, even), I showed YOUR God is illogical at best.
@weazz God commanded as punishments: Deuteronomy 17:12, Exodus 22:17, Leviticus 20:13, Exodus 21:15, Zechariah 13:3, Deuteronomy 13:13-19, Romans 1:24-32.
God murders: 2 Kings 2:23-24, 1 Samuel 6:19-20, 2 Samuel 6:3-7, Leviticus 26:21-22, Exodus 23:23.
God commands “Holy” battles: Ezekiel 9:5-7, Jeremiah 51:20-26, Isaiah 13:15-18, 1 Samuel 15:2-3, Joshua 8:1-29, Joshua 6:20-21, Jeremiah 50:21-22.
I left out quite a lot, too.
[cont]
@weazz Luke 5:20, Luke 18:10-14, John 3:16, John 5:24, Acts 10:43, Romans 1:17-18, Romans 3:28, Galatians 2:21, Philippians 3:9, 1 Timothy 1:16, Titus 3:5, Ephesians 2:8-10.
I left out quite a bit, though. And you state FIRST [We are saved by Faith and Faith alone] AND THEN [The path is narrow, and murdering is not following the narrow path] DESPITE that FAITH DOES NOT REQUIRE NOR IMPLY IN ANY WAY ANY ACTION BUT BELIEF. You DO NOT need faith to do good, NOR to “be good” to have faith.
@onijester56 And yes, your actions and following laws dictated to Moses by God is exactly what Faith in the the Holy Father is about. Can you show me scripture where it argues this? No you cannot. But you profess because of your non belief that it counters the laws of God and my faith in him and his laws and in his son. If you have faith in God and choose not to follow his laws, then you are not professing faith in the Holy Father. Thus it is faith in either oneself, or a false God.
@onijester56 Who does Jesus condone murdering? How have you shown my arguments to be flimsy? You have done no such thing, Again you jump to other explanations and then try to shoot holes into my arguments. You have failed to understand, as I said you would. You continue to fail to understand because you choose not to, instead you scoff and disbelieve, which is your right with your free will. But you choose to attack my faith which serves no purpose except to be asinine about it.
@weazz Faith, by DEFINITION, ETYMOLOGY, USAGE, PURPOSE, and even CONNOTATION, has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with ACTIONS or FOLLOWING LAWS. To claim otherwise is not only ignorant but blatantly false.
Likewise you don’t need faith in some god to not murder, steal or covet….which God actually allows and rewards depending on the situation.
Sadly, you make a connection that at its best is flimsy and then whine when SHOWN how flimsy it actually is. Not even getting to your moral stability.
@onijester56 What you’re trying to do is partition off what I’m saying into two separate phrases which isn’t the case. If you have faith in God, you will follow God’s laws. So faith in God, and that faith alone does not mean anything other than the narrow path. The narrow path is living God’s law. So having Faith in God is what drives me to walk the narrow path. There is no separation as you wish to conclude or try to point out. What you are doing is falsely partitioning what I am saying.
