the stigma that comes with been an atheist is really overwhelming. it comes from mainly christians who refer to me as the 'possesed guy'. they say that demons use me to lure people into joining cults. as much as i try to tell them that atheism is not a cult or a devils hub,they don't quite understand.i really find it funny that they have not actually realised this lie-religion- that has been told for an eon.i ask...does a lie told so many times become true??? i am regarded as an outcast just because of my views on this big nonsense called religion. oh and can someone with enough information about emperor constantine and the bible share it please. is it true that it is him who made the bible for political reasons???

Hi kamau,
You may be an outcast in some circles but you get to create new ones whenever you like. Your new circles can be made up of people you choose. These circles do not have to only filled with folks geographically close to you. The website can be one of those circles. And you are welcome in it.
What she said^
no, it is not true that Flavius Constantine created the bible.
He might have modified/cut a few pieces there and there but the best answer is that he made it as the main religion because it was a religion which in it, it had something which agreed with every other religion present at that time.
The reason for this being so is because it was created out of those religions :)
Here is the most likely truth about Christianity and who created it and why:

The fact that he Adopted the Flavian name(the most likely creators of this religion) is evidence of him trying to be divine just like the Flaians were.
He wasn't kidding about it, he not only took their name but he had an arch of himself built in Rome right next to the Flavian Colosseum near the arch of Titus Flavius.
