Is The Lord A Good Law Maker?

[xmas1997]

There's no problem. And if there was, I never said it was YOUR problem.

More incoherent babble mixed with whine.

Then I will explain it to you.
When it comes to believing, you have to want to believe. And you don't want to simply because you want someone to force you beyond all your doubts to have faith.
In other words you want to be able to have to believe because of the proof someone or some en y shows to you.
Faith however is believing without the proof so it is quite subjective in nature and it is much more difficult, it"s not the easy way.
You want the easy way, something that doesn't use brain cells.
Now do you understand?

It's quite simple really. you do not possess faith, faith demands a bit of effort and you want it to be easy.

Faith is for children on Christmas eve......not for adults.

Reread the quote above yours.
It applies to you most of all.
Maybe you'll learn something for a change.

I read it. You talked about faith.

If the Bible is legit then prove it. If it takes faith to believe in it, then it's useless.

Again, faith in magic stories and myths is for little kids. Not for educated adults that would like to move society forward to a better place.

I'm talking about faith and God here, not one of the many books like the bible.
If all the education you ever got about faith and God came from just the bible, then you are even more ignorant than I thought you were.
You are a very sad excuse for a man, and you'll die a very lonely death.

Yes, every god(s) out there takes faith to believe in.

You'll have to give some reasons why faith isn't a waste of time or you're wasting time saying it's relevant.

You are a very sad excuse for a man, and you'll die a very lonely death.

Actually, I'm pretty happy.

You're clearly having a miserable day though. Your meltdown in the yard sale thread was spectacular.

I don't believe that, if any of your posts are any indication, but I won't bother you anymore since there is a bigger fish to scale, unless you attack me again.

"you have to want to believe" is a load of tbh . if it was compelling enough to believe it would be believed. if you "have to want to believe" it that means its horsecrap and ignorance is bliss

I don't care what you believe.

That is very shallow reasoning on your part sorry to inform you.

[Blake]

No, it's very logical reasoning.

and feel free at any time to explain the god you believe in and why you do.

Aren't those who are so simple they can't believe anything they can't see funny? Try and explain the cell phone to primitive man, they'd call you crazy.

Very true.
And now Blake, a proven troll by his own words, wants me to explain God and why I believe?
He needs to get real. Who in their right mind would endeavor to explain anything to a troll?

[spurraider21]

xmas masquerades but he's a bible thumper, as evidenced by his claims that noah's ark was found

to answer blake's question, xmas' belief in god is seen in the bible

Sure I know the bible. That doesn't make me a thumper.
I sure as don't interpret it "literally".
I know many other great books too, but don't interpret them literally either. and have even studied Wiccan.
That doesn't make me evil or good.
I've explained this countless times on here ad infinitum (Latin for "to infinity").
I am an investigator if anything, I accept nothing for granted or because some other idiot says I have to believe a certain way.
But you are welcome to your opinion on the matter.

[spurraider21]

your claim that noah's ark was discovered tells me you take at least that story literally, which is one of the most fantastic tales told in the book

I was referring to the Discovery channels do entary about it which I found very revealing and quite surprising.

what you were referring to is irrelevant. it would be moronic and illogical to make the claim that noah's ark was discovered only to go on to say that you don't believe the story of noah's ark

Not necessarily. If it has truly been discovered and is petrified as they claim, how much of the biblical story is real or fictionalized? Those are questions that are still not answered.
I still find it hard to believe that two of every kind of animal was on it.
There are countless accounts of biblical type floods so that isn't too much of a stretch, but the animals?
To me it's no different than alien abduction stories.

Except the cell phone isn't an intelligent en y that refuses to show himself.

It hasn't been discovered. You're just too lazy to go research it.

if you want to have a real discussion, you need to clearly state your beliefs and why you believe them.

But you don't want to. You'd rather spend your time whining about people trolling you.

According to that do entary it has, or did you miss the special?

Get it right. I love discussing it with normal people.
I won't discuss it with simple minded trolls like you who are the village idiots of forums like this.

the do entary has been thoroughly debunked, lazy ass.

Neh, I think you're simply afraid to share your belief.
