It could ruin your whole day. They came to kill all the non Catholics, and ended up slaughtering 20,000 people.
Ha. Ruin your whole day...
Now I do. I didn't always. I've always been extremely bored and disappointed with life, and its not for a lack of activity or trying. I've had everything I ever wanted except one thing. A husband. And not just any husband, cause I had one of those and it was torture. I never felt lonelier. But a man like the man I'm engaged to.
That's not why I feel differently about life now though. That was a very unexpected surprise. Its because after having a very strange experience, I realized an identity and a purpose that supercedes and permeates all of the mundane.
But if I have an identity that lives on in spirit, I certainly don't fret death. When its time to go its time to go. I bet the spiritual realm is pretty awesome. Sometimes I get the feeling that's why this life here is so cumbersome and perverse. Like I have some repressed memory of what its like there.
She already said we are all born sinners. Maybe that rationale makes it easier to sin?
I did not misinterpret your words. I made sure i read the opening post very carefully. this tread was not about the stupid things all people say about religion. This thread was titled and described as the absurd things Christians say.. I am correct, end of story.
Yeah your a liar in this instance. When you tried to make out that this thread was a neutral, absurd things people say for and in opposition to religion. I called you out on that and it sticks.
Yeah i am a liar, but not in this specific instance. And what foundations of mine do you think would be crumbling? Come on tell me.
I guess some athiests have joy in others being misguided. I must admit i have not met a atheist in here who has given signs that they have a loving concern for Christians and this is leading them to try and save us from being misguided, But i hear you attitude often:
"they are all so misguided is enough for me to sit back and watch happily"
What an evil joy you have. You take delight when you believe others are misguided. Not compassion, not concern, no sadness. But Delight. Does that tell you something about the kind of person you are?
That was another thread that you where proposing. It was not this thread. Was it.
Yeah, so. Thoroughly de-bunked. Moving on.
Not so fast.

Pride in people.
It offends the proud.
They are proud. And a proud person looks after No 1.
and that's fucking nuts. the way we live and the way we treat each other is fucking crazy. it's also normal.
Crazy, Normal and Evil.
And those who love Evil are cursed.

I guess we must agree to disagree here.
Jesus will be the One to bring it all about. There is no boasting for His followers we will not be bringing this about. But by believing in Him we will be a part of that Redeemed Eternity.

That's not what taking the lords name in vain means.
That's just what some simpletons believe.
But believing changes your life and the world adstar. Our thoughts and desires manifest. Its prayer. "his will be done on earth as it is in heaven". We have choices that bring about change. I know faith comes from god. But when you receive it, it guides your behavior. I could have never chosen to do some things I've done without it. And I venture to say that the martyrs in the last days will be doing what it takes.
I think you know me well enough by now to understand that what you've said to me here is self indulgent bullshit.
That's what millions of Christians all across the globe believe. I don't personally care.
But isn't that a sort of no-no in your religion? I mean, calling upon god's name to damn someone or some thing is sort of like a Christian way of conjuring or summoning some sort of spirit, right?
Or: It's like you're telling god to do something, which, in this case, would be to damn someone or something that he created and allegedly loves like a part of himself?
So how is that not using god's name in vain? I'm sure he's very pleased with the way you're representing him right about now...
Personally, I don't care. If you're offended... Find another thread.
Of course. Didn't I say that about myself? Redundant.
The foundation of reason in your argument.
I'll tell you: A realist.
Like I said, if you don't like it, you know where the 'back' button on your browser is.
'Of' is and 'the' are not words that are generally capitalized in the English language unless at the beginning of a sentence or title.
then why did you bring it up? just to be an ass?
like witchcraft? i would imagine if i made a request for god to damn or curse something, god would kick it to the curb. that goes against the whole point of the doctrine, and against what i know about how god works. people damn themselves (like you for example). they don't need any help from me or god.
oh holier than thou. you're doing it right now. it's name dropping in an attempt to make yourself look good. "jesus this" "god bless that" "halleluiah" "praise the lord" "i'll pray for you, you pitiful bastard". some religious people can't finish a sentence without interjecting some gratuitous rhetoric. they do it because they think it makes them look good, or "holy".
I asked who or what I had to live for other than myself. 'From the man himself' isn't a tangible response.
Perhaps the word you were looking for was 'For'?
Kind of like the rhetoric of you telling me I'm 'damning' myself? Kind of like that?
