is that not an oxy-moron?

you can't love god, if you don't believe in him.


oh and its more important to love your neighbour, as
A) god isn't real
B) if he was, he is a scum bag who deserves nothing less than hate for his disgusting actions.

"These are the Two great commandments.Thou shalt love thy God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind.The second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbors as thy selves. On these two commandments hang all the law of the prophets".
From this, it appears to me that both intertwine with each other.

Neighbor.

Certainly this is more important because even if there just so happens to be a god, the people around you are the ones who carry you through the life that would determine the afterlife.

Just makes sense to me, if you were born in a place completely empty of people (and consequently literature written by people, movies, etc) you wouldn't have heard about any gods in the first place.

Ohhh, poor little marky warky, does he want a big hug and a cookie because he has no love, come on now marky warky, let me give you a big hug because you're so hard done by, your a good boy marky warky, have a cookie and some milk, ohh, poor little marky warky.

Grow up.

Brothers and sisters, stop thinking like children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be adults.


God bless you.

You are all missing a the vitally important point of the second greatest commandment.

It is like the first because it is like the first.

The second greatest commandment is telling you to deny yourself totally and give your entire being over to God.

Love your neighbour AS YOURSELF.

If you were to feed all your neighbours, give all your neighbours shelter and care, and visit all your neighbours (remembering that your neighbour is defined as anyone who has mercy on you) then you would not be livingthe life of torment you currently are.
Yet weep and gnash you do.


God bless you.

You consider that to be an attack, yet you deny the mercy of the Almighty God.

Here's my situation:

If I love my neighbor and vice versa, I will establish peace and make a friend. And maybe a cup of sugar.
If I love god, I will still feel lonely and become insane, because I can't hear god speak or see god greet me. And my coffee will remain stale and tasteless...
