Like I said, it’s not a group you want to be a part of. I sort of envy you.
How did God reveal himself to you?

Why do you sort of envy him?
Now you're chicken. Ok.
Well.
With that knowledge comes great responsibility. How that knowledge is acquired is where I envy him.
Or maybe I just like protecting things that are personal to me. Moreover, why would I divulge these personal issues to a person who makes fun of me?
Lol enlightened post.
Explain how God revealed himself to you.
So you're embarrassed. Ok.
I don't blame you but Jesus does.
Why should I?
Because you asked?
LOL
Okay. Whatever you say.
Are you kidding me? Not this...is there a God..? AGAIN.
It works like this....
Some people need a God in their life, so they have one, some don't so they don't. It doesn't matter at all if there really is a God or not, that is meaningless.
I can say this, those I know who have a God in their life are far better off emotionally than those who don't. , just look at how those here without a God act, yep, sad.
You came in here guns blazing but you fired blanks. No skin off my back if it ends for you that way.
It's what Jesus said
Luke 9:26*New International Version (NIV)
26*Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.
It's not firing blanks. IMO, it's best not to discuss religion on this board. Although I keep reminding myself that MY Lord and Savior died for you all especially when the name-calling/insults fly :-)
“Guns blazin”
LOL
I came in here to simply address an assertion you made, which is what you do/don’t THINK you know applies to everyone. That you think I came in here “guns blazin” just shows the degree to which you are emotional & your self-righteous defensiveness about this subject.
It always amazes me how similar evangelicals & militant are. At their respective cores, they are exactly the same: hyper-sensitive to opposing views, self-righteous, & incredibly emotional. Their ad-hominem of choice is “heathen” & yours is “dumbass”.
I’m not ashamed of His words. I’ve my reasons for not revealing them on this board. If you want to pm me, then I’d be happy to share my experiences with you so long as you can show me a modi of respect.
Well to recap, he came in calling me unintelligent, proceeded to call parts of the bible fiction and then said bible god revealed himself to him but was afraid to say how because he would get laughed at.
You'll need to show which bullets he shot were real.

"Political Forum(107 Viewing)

a great many of our politicians state out how we need to incorporate the bible into our public policies. That's a big problem.
I never said I’d get laughed at. You are putting words in my mouth.
Oh so now you want me to show you respect after your Christian ass comes right in right at me? That's so good.
you just said you're afraid of getting laughed at, so either you're ashamed, embarrassed or terrified. You can pick which one and then go yourself, chicken .
K, somehow I'm making fun of you without laughing.
if the bible is partially fiction, then it would be accurate to say that the god of the bible does not exist in that form.
put another way... Commodus is an actual historical character. but Commodus as portrayed by Joaqin Phoenix in Gladiator doesn't exist. So if I said "Gladiator" Commodus doesn't exist, that would be perfectly accurate.
and until we can sit and parse which parts of the bible are said to be fiction and which are said to be nonfiction, can't really take it much further. our understanding of god comes from the actions he took. if we take away all his acts (creation of the universe/earth, creation of life, the great flood, sending his son to earth, etc), then our understanding of him quite literally disappears. imo, if you remove creation of life and noah's ark, which are quite thoroughly disputed by the available body of evidence... those are two pretty big ones
regardless, the discussion has been deviated from the "does creationism belong in classrooms" which is what i was here to talk about.
You don’t see how disingenuous you are being?
That's rich
“Comes right at me”
LOL
