What if James Earl Ray had forsaken his vision just because the going got tough? He was talking to God too.
Is that Veronica's Secret?

Post about it under your regular screen name, then.
AWWWW original poster wants to stay anonymous?![]()
Your momma must have really hated your sorry ass to name you mavs>spurs.
I never said it wasn't Godly when I lost my job. That's never been the way I've spoken. You've got me confused with someone else there.
Well duh. Did you hear they arrested two people on voter registration fraud in Wisconsin yesterday? re ed!
I don't think that's his birth name.
How many alternate user names do you post under? How does that change the fact that i'm right about you being a hypocrite? LOL @ keeping your hate to yourself. You've done a superb job on that one, bud.
If James Earl Ray would have lived by the Bible which plainly says, " Do Not Murder" then you would not have him to use as an example.
How can you possibly compare Ray's actions to Martin Luther King?
Since I already gave my serious answer... I will indulge myself.
What does Darth Vader have to do with Martin Luther King other than they are both black?
Ok then - here's your first... my entire early thirties have been to say the least... traumatic. Without going into specifics, I made some really bad decisions, got arrested, faced the possibility of up to twenty years in prison, had two heart attacks, and am now diagnosed with type three congestive heart failure. I whined and moaned for way too long about "why me!?" "why me!?" - but I now realize that God has a design for us all. He was there when I made those bad decisions, he was there when I was dying in the hospital. I am a much greater person now because, not in spite of my experiences, and I feel that I have been molded to help others. I used to have a ton of hatred, but now, all I feel is piece. God worked his wonders through some pretty awful experiences... experiences that would have broken many of you. God doesn't always work through pretty feelings and flowers... in fact, much of the time - it is the exact opposite. I don't expect many of you to understand... I just know for myself, and that is all that is necessary.
Got it.
Even people who "Live by the Bible" sin. You know that. We are all sinners. Millons of people have been killed in the name of God over the course of history. James Earl Ray thought he was doing gods work when he killed MLK.
Nice try![]()
I don't post under ANY alternate user names, zero. Timvp deleted them all.
And you know, you're right about part of that statement being hypocritical. Me telling someone to "keep their hate to themselves" is very hypocritical.
But I NEVER personally attack posters on this board without being provoked. I troll people who say all kinds of dumb things, but never without being provoked. I troll people for saying stuff like "dirk is a giant vagina, mavs suck 4 rings got" or anything just totally ridiculous that I feel warrants being made fun of. But never will I just attack someone for saying something that is totally non malicious and not meant to be offensive to anyone. I spank idiotic purposely obnoxious persons when I see them, that's my thing.
Now enough about me, back to the subject at hand. What has Angel EVER done to you personally? Nothing..exactly, that's my point. Some people deserve to be trolled. Angel Luv isn't one of them, she's a nice girl.
What's more hypocrital is an original poster who's too much of a giant vag to confront another original poster under their regular user name trying to talk down on someone else. Congrats on trolling yourself.
Look dude, I appreciate that you are on a personal moral mission to defend angel_luvs honor and rescue your damsel in distress but let's back up here. I left this thread well enough alone until it got to be just too much. If angel_luv didn't want to be exposed to people giving their own opinions then the easy solution would be to not start a thread and use her fundamentalist language to provoke these responses. Try again.
So, if we are all sinners than you acknowledge that there is an existing and defined Standard which we all fail in at least some aspect to live up to?
Three things:
1. I could give a about Angel Luv, I just post my opinions where I see fit
2. She didn't provoke these kind of responses. She simply said that she was quitting her job and stated the reasons why. Maybe she was being a bit naive in not realizing people would jump all over her for using the three letter "G" word, but other than that, she's not in the wrong.
3. You're still a giant vagina for refusing to post your opinions under your regular user name.
1. same here, you dumb
2. Sure. Did you even read some of her responses in this thread. It's obvious that you have not. She is bat crazy.
3. let's clear this up:
re·fuse
to decline to give; deny (a request, demand, etc.): to refuse permission.
choose
to select from a number of possibilities; pick by preference:
get it?
hahahahahahaha, lol,+99999999999999999999999999
The colander is an interesting choice for analogy, here, as it is a tool that doesn't actually process anything. In addition to being completely fixed, it is also completely passive. It offers no control or choice in what gets filtered through the holes.
I think the most amusing thing in all of this is that the people who don't agree with Angel's beliefs are the ones attacking. Angel hasn't once pushed her beliefs on anyone, merely stated what works for her. But the non-Christians are the ones attacking everything - even though their complaint is that Christians are always 'shoving their beliefs down people's throats.'
I personally agree with Angel and Ash. It works for me. I've seen it, I've used it, it's helped me. An example is this last year, when my wife and I were going to buy a house. We found one we really liked, but it was a little more than we wanted to spend - but we kept being drawn to the house. So, we prayed about it, and asked for guidance and God to confirm that it was the right house. After the prayer, I had the Bible and half-jokingly said I was going to open the Bible to a random page and point at a random place and look for an answer. I opened it, pointed and landed on the words "God's confirmation." That worked for us.
Now, I'm sure a lot of you will write that off as coincidence - but by the sheer number of verses, books, and chapters in the bible - landing on one that had the verbatim words I was looking for was more than that for me. And ironically, the ones who write it off as coincidence will be the same ones talking about karma in another thread someday.
Believe what you want to believe. To each their own. But, if I get to the end of life, and I'm wrong about everything I believe. That Christianity is a big sham, and a huge lie - well, I've still lived a pretty good life, tried to do things the moral, right way - so I'm not out a whole lot. But, if you get to the end of your life and you're wrong about everything, you're in a heap of trouble.
ah yes, the text book go to christian move. it never gets old. to borrow a line from our friend baseline bum, fear is not a good reason to believe in something.
Are you ing kidding me? By and large christians have practiced shoving their propaganda down our collective throats for many a years far more than the other way around. , I had a boss at my old job who attended a conference in Phoenix to learn how to debate "non believers". I think you should be more careful with your words when you wish to make a point.
Darth Vader was a white dude, homegirl. Did you even watch the movies?
The go-to non-Christian move is attacking anything and everything you don't believe - so I guess we're all cliches in here.
I never said it was because of fear. I believe what I believe because I've seen it work. I've seen how it's changed my life. That's one thing that nobody can debate is how my life is changed for it. I've never told anybody that their life will be different for doing anything. I've merely said what's worked for me. The part I mentioned is just a perk. Consider it buying insurance from the dealer. I still believe what I have is good, but my bases are covered either way.
Like I said, though, believe what you want - I won't push anything on anyone.
