Hell does not exist

http://www.christianitydisproved.com/hell.html

Hell does not exist. The Christian hell evolved in three significant phases starting with Sheol:. To make a place for ancestors in the scheme of things, while supplanting the ancestor cult, the Hebrew monarchy and priesthood promoted the idea of Sheol (literally, the grave). Sheol was a single underworld for everyone. A vast realm in which all of the dead shared equally without distinction of family, wealth, or virtue. It was little more than a synonym for death" (Bernstein, 1986, p. 80). The development...

Religion and the Brain

http://www.christianitydisproved.com/brain.html

Religious experience is a natural product of the brain. When Tibetan Buddhists meditate, neural activity is increased in the brain’s frontal lobes alongside a decrease in activity within the temporal lobes. Increased activity in the left prefrontal cortex is correlated with decreased activity within the left superior parietal lobe (Newberg et al. 2001). When a Christian speaks in tongues (glossolalia), there is a decreased amount of activity in the prefrontal cortices. Since the frontal lobes are uti...

The Bible is not the Word of God

http://www.christianitydisproved.com/bible.html

The Bible is not the Word of God. To be apostles. The list goes on." (Ehrman, 2009, pp. 5-6). Contrary to the Bible's claims in Deuteronomy 31:24-26 and John 5:46-47, Moses (c. thirteenth century BCE) did not write Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers or Deuteronomy (Jones, 2005). These books are a collection of four subsequent sources (Harris, 2010). The Yahwist source (J): written c. 950 BCE. The Elohist source (E): written c. 850 BCE. The Deuteronomist (D): written c. 650 BCE. Much of what is commonly ...

The Bible versus Science

http://www.christianitydisproved.com/science.html

The Bible is not 100% factually accurate. If the Bible is 100% factually accurate. Then the Universe is not billions of years old. The Universe is billions of years old. Therefore the Bible is not 100% factually accurate. In the 1920’s, Edwin Hubble discovered a positive relationship between a galaxy’s velocity (derived from its red shifted light), and its distance from Earth (derived from its Cepheid stars) (Filkin and Hawking 1997).

Jesus was not God.

http://www.christianitydisproved.com/jesus.html

Jesus was not God. If Christ was in fact God, he knew all the future. He saw the interpolations and falsehoods that hypocrisy would write and tell. He saw all wars that would be waged, and he knew that above these fields of death, these dungeons, these rackings, these burnings, these executions, for a thousand years would float the dripping banner of the cross. He saw his disciples extinguishing the eyes of men, flaying them alive, cutting out their tongues, searching for all the nerves of pain. Why did ...

The Christian God does not exist

http://www.christianitydisproved.com/god.html

The Christian God does not exist. As Christopher Hitchens correctly observed, there is a profound chasm between (1) deism. The Kalām cosmological argument. The Teleological or Design argument. And the Ontological argument. The original god of Israel was El. (Smith, 2002, p. 32). The original Israelites were mostly Canaanites . and the original God of Israel was El, as the name Israel indicates. El was a high god of the Canaanite pantheon; Asherah was his consort. (Doorly, 1997, p. 28). Is he neither able...
