What is the difference between Atheists + Anti-Christ..??


Just a question...

What do you think is the difference between Atheists & Anti-Christ??

Almost all people that deny & do not believe in the existence of a God are relying their basis through science, physics & historical facts. And that I call scientific-atheists.
But if they really are scientific, they cannot deny that a Jesus Christ really did exists and they must believe that fact.. So if they believe in Christ but do not believe in his teachings, His claim that there is a God, & ignore His commandments... then if they were against Him should they fall into being Anti-Christ??

In the Bible there are few meanings of Anti-Christ & few things to be consider for one to be Anti-Christ.. and some characteristic to be called an Anti-Christ.

a) The Prime Anti-Christ w/c is described in the book of Revelation.. A powerful man that can lead the world..

b) Anyone who teaches other doctrine other than the doctrine of Christ & the apostles.. Anyone who teaches other gospel other than those written by the apostles.. are Anti-Christ..

c) Anyone who denies Christ's teachings (including believing in God).. Are Anti-Christ..

etc..

The Atheists fall into one of the description of being Anti-Christ, probably the most important part of the teaching of Christ.. So is it logical to call Atheists themselves Anti-Christ..??

Listen mate, just because someone existed in the past and science can prove it doesn´t mean I am going to accept their teachings, are you mental? I´m honestly worried you are. I´d tell you who else science can prove had existed and who brought his own teachings to the world, but I´d be breaking an internet rule. Also, please avoid using the word *logical* as long as you have no grasp how logic works.
So some carbon testing can prove Mr. Joshua had lived around the year 0, and he claimed there was God, so what? You´re jumping on his claim? I´m here, science can´t deny me, and I claim there isn´t one. Ain´t you in a dilema now?

You got it all backwards.

The whole point of this movie was to show the conflict between science and religion.

For Christians, Science is the antichrist, because it is the greatest threat to their very existence (their religion). For science is the only way to prove the bible is wrong. And science has proven over and over and over again the bible is wrong. Which is one of the reasons why the Catholic church has slowly but surely lost a lot of influence throughout the world. Its a recent progression, due to science. Even on a grand scale science enables the individual power. The power to expose the pedophiles in the Catholic church, to name an example. Whereas Atheism and the other religions are merely saying "you're wrong I'm right" and are indeed a threat they cannot prove their own -ism, and don't attempt to disprove Christianity. It is science which can without a shed of a doubt disprove.

If you saw the previous movie in this series, or read the book, you'd also know that the meaning of Jesus' existence and his relation to God was severely altered during the writing of the New Testament (and this part isn't fiction). This movie also refers to that (Council of Nicea), but in a different context.

"b) Anyone who teaches other doctrine other than the doctrine of Christ & the apostles.. Anyone who teaches other gospel other than those written by the apostles.. are Anti-Christ..

c) Anyone who denies Christ's teachings (including believing in God).. Are Anti-Christ.."

If you can't see the similarities between such statements and the ways cults like Scientology try to keep their members on opposite terms with competitors as well as reality and science then I don't know how to help you. Lost soul, I'd say.
