Why Deism? I discovered I was a Deist . . . and much more!

 

How I Became a Deist

by Marylyn Scarkino

To tell you the truth, I don't know exactly how I came to know about Deism. I do remember that I was on the internet doing research on many scriptures that I have always had a hard time believing in by "faith". While searching, I found scriptures that I had never noticed before. Mainly because most churches that I had attended NEVER discussed such subjects as child abuse, murder, genocide, or many other ungodly acts in the bible. Scriptures that I had NEVER heard read  from the pulpit! At first I was sad and mad at the same time by these horrific scriptures. I was disappointed by what I felt to be intentional deception from "revealed religions."  They have no answers, so they will tell you to pray about your questions and ask for revelation. Just believe and have "faith"! I wanted more. I wanted  truth. BLIND faith wasn't working for me any longer! I wanted answers!!!!
 
Somehow  I ended up on Deism.com. Deism described the God of my dreams. The God that I can honestly say that I love!  I actually get teary-eyed at times when I think of how awesome God Is. He wants us to live life. As I wrote in my article "Will The Real God Please Stand Up", (December issue of THINKonline!) "The real God would never cause death to any living creation, out of hatred, rage, vengeance."
 
I am free. Free indeed! I am grateful that I finally found the truth...or maybe the truth found me. All I know is that is how I discovered that I am a Deist. My Creator God made it possible for me to live in a beautiful World, in a awesome Galaxy, that is located in HIS incomprehensible Universe. I can live with that...truly live!!

Both Democratic candidates promote the nonsense of the Bible!
Hilary Clinton says, "I think the whole Bible is real." So she believes in the talking donkey (Numbers 22:28), that any nation that will not serve Israel should "be utterly wasted" (Isaiah 60:10-12), among many other ridiculous claims! Based on the blank check both Democratic and Republican politicians give to Israel, it appears they're all strong believers in the Hebrew Bible!

Barack Obama gave a speech in which he used the genocidal maniacs, Moses and Joshua, as great examples to be followed! It's pathetic and dangerous when in this nuclear age politicians still cling to the insanity found in the Bible, Torah and Koran! Here are just two examples to demonstrate that Moses and Joshua were murderous butchers. Deuteronomy 2:34 in which Moses brags about killing "men, women and the little ones", and Joshua 6:21 which says the Hebrews "utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword."  How Obama can think this is good is beyond reason!
At least 50 people were blinded due to religious superstition!
50 people who believed there was an image of the fictional virgin Mary on the sun were blinded due to looking directly at the sun while trying to see the image! Our God-given reason is the only thing that will protect us from such ignorance and superstition - if we decide to use it!
