Can You call United States of America a "Peaceful Nation" when been involved in one way or another in practically every War on the Planet Earth? Who has the largest military budget in the history of mankind and Yes is a christian nation? What do you expect when looking at ancient history? World Peace Convenctions? Do you see them? Do you complain about mass muderers in our schools? Why? When all I can find in TV are shows were murder take place. Is nra an association for anti war endeavors? That is like any of our presidents talking of world peace and selling arms to a faction involved in a war. ameriKKKa has one war left to wage and keep fucking postponing it for 73 years and counting. Instead making war to Granada and Panama. Honest I give a rat's ass about wars conducted 3,000 years ago or complaints about the bible today. I am not at war with god, jesus, church, religion, christians or the bible. I am simply a non militant atheist capable of ignoring muslims, christians and militant atheists.

We are constantly reminded that Islam is a religion of peace....Maybe it is..maybe it isn't
I would say the same of Christianity....noting that the old testament should have a Certificate 18 stamped on it..top shelf only... I read the children's bible with pictures..as a kid. I was horrified.
Peace my ass..

in my experience heaven and peace and love we're stressed more than hell and War and death. just because that book is so full of it, does not mean to that's what what Christians are thinking about all the time.

Three Es over two I s

Because in order to have peace, ALL who don't believe/follow blindly need to die. :/

All Abrahamic religions follow this idea.

Speaking of peace is for PR and times of peace. When they start speaking of safety is when you should be scared.

Christians claim the New Testament as their bible, and actually it is not full of war. Better to ask why Christians embarked on Crusades and Inquisitions.

There's a lot of nice rhetoric until you unpack what it really means. For example, Jesus is generally claimed to be the fulfillment of Isaiah 9:6, such that Jesus is said to be the "prince of peace". During his ministry he said "my peace I give unto you [my followers]".

On the other hand Jesus also said he came "not to bring peace but a sword" and then went on to describe how there would be conflict between believers and unbelievers, even within families.

So Jesus is actually the prince of peace within the church -- those who believe in and worship him and toe the party line. Everyone else has to convert or suffer the consequences. And it's pretty merciless -- Jesus chased the money-changers and merchants out of the temple with whips, and cursed a fig tree for not bearing fruit for him to eat -- despite that figs weren't even in season. The message is, do it my way, and hop to it, or else. No excuses.

This is an atheist and agnostic site and god, church and religion are the most popular themes. Ain't that some shit?

Kind of like the old SAC motto:
"Peace Is Our Profession"

It really upsets me when they speak of an all loving god who repeatedly asks for the extermination of people he created in his image. These must be rejects?It is so frustrating that people do not see how quietus the bible is and how quixotic.
