Give it a rest will you? I'm perfectly happy believing that the end is death, and I don't need attemped CONVERSIONS interrupting me between NOW and THEN.

I will NOT rest until YOU REACH THE POINT OF SALVATION.

How could you think I would ABANDON my LORD's CAUSE like that?!


Face it. I'm not being "saved" by your egotistical crap, now or ever.
...you have permission to stop being a b***h now.

Then I want proof that the bible is real.
Do you realize how many thing in there are unbelievable?
Take a mythology class, then you'll realize that our bible, and our god, is also a myth.
I believe that there is something out there, and higher power. But not necessarily the god that is spoken of.
What makes ours right?
Do you know how many religions there were before Jesus came around?
Who's to say those aren't right then?
What makes our right and theirs wrong?
There is no proof that this god exists.
A book of old stories written by someone OTHER than him is all we have.
That is not enough proof.

Mythology, which is the study of each different cultures meanings and explanations for why things happen. If by our current religion is an explanation, then it is a myth. The religions are based on a belief, not by proof. You have to understand that no one can explain how things came to be (watch Expelled, no intelligence allowed). Its based on a belief that we are right, if you don't believe it, fine...thats your own belief.

*clapping and applauding noises*
Thanks.
But that's really something I have always wondered.
What makes our god the only real god.
It makes no sense.

To the quote above, an unmarried man is most likely referring to a priest or higher church official (who is not married). Though, it also says that a man may still do well as being married.


Would you rather that you MAY do better, or that you WILL do better?

There is no mention of being a member of clergy anywhere.


Plus, marrige is FUN!

Your Lord also knew when his message was not welcome. He dusted off his sandals and moved on.

Cast not your pearls before swine, lest they turn and trample you. And we've been a-oinkin.


Yes, He knew that. But why should we keep silent with non-believers about the Grace of God? It's important to witness.

The Gospels were written some thirty years after Jesus' supposed death and there is no contemporary historical record of his existence either way.

Proof?

The Bible says women should be silent in the CHURCH. Not in their own homes.



So you follow Paul's advisements.

Very well, is your husband a eunuch as he implores him to be?

Also, why is he married? Paul stated quite twice to never get married.

"A man who marries may do well. A man who does not marry WILL DO BETTER."

"A unmarried man is concerned with how he may please THE LORD. A married man is concerned with the ways of the world and how he may please his wife and his loyalties are divided."


Silly, that's taken so out of context by every non-believer it's tiring.


Quit demeaning other people who think differently from you.


I haven't been demeaning anyone.


Using terms of endearment in a mocking tone is a form of being demeaning.

I'm not the one calling others names, you know. I'm also not the one demeaning others just to get my kicks.

When did I cal you name?!

You are being an a*****e. The BIBLE written by the LORD OUR GOD says THOU SHALT NOT BE A ******** ASSTERD WHEN OTHERS ARE TRYING TO PREACH MY WORD TO LOST SOULS.

How DARE you interfere with my MESSAGE?!!!



Let me think. When? Try before posts and just now?


Huh? She said you were being an a*****e. That doesn't mean you ARE one.

Try learning to read.


Well...at this moment she is an a*****e, though I need to judge her acts and beliefs to decide whether it is habitual. However, assuming this has been her only actions on Gaia and the beliefs presented, on Gaia she is an a*****e, though that is not to say one cannot change.

Its more important to cut your losses and move on.
Trying to change an individuals way of thinking is exactly what that work of fiction is teaching you.
I'd rather be damned to hell then believe that someone who is supposed to be pure would send his "children" to eternal damnation just for having their own unique way of thinking.

[I believe that] Religion was created so that people wouldn't fear death, and so we don't have to wonder how the world was created.
It was created to give us humans bullshit answers to the unknown just so that we have something to hang on to, and I, for one, see absolutely nothing wrong with that.
Just because we think differently then you does not give you the right to go around preaching to every one.

As far as I'm concerned, your god can suck it.

Sure. That's why he KILLED all the BLASPHEMERS in the OLD TESTAMENT, right?

The LORD eventually destroys those who do not believe them. Like He, I am CONCERNED about you ALL.

It's not. It's a respectful way of making a point.

And why is that? Let me show you something...

"God doesn't exist!"

Now, if I say that, and that's truely what I believe, why the hell would you suddenly say "oh, I believe you're right!" and skip over to aetheism? You wouldn't. So WHY THE HELL SHOULD I?

Oh, and I suppose you rolling your eyes when we make a successful counterpoint is good debate etiquette also?
