As you very well know, there are different definitions that can apply to the word "fear" depending on the context.  In this case the "fear" of God is more of a reverence or awe of Him because of who He is.

{snip, rude, disrespectful, evangelizing-proselytizing-propaganda}

That "reverence/awe" is a definition based upon faith.  Without such faith, there's no reverence, no awe and no fear. So, non-believers have nothing to fear since the religious beliefs of others do no apply to them.

And that's your choice.

Yes, as always.  By the way, the sky is blue too.
One can lead a horse to water however, if one holds the horse's head under, that horse will drown.

Actually, the color of a void appears black from space, and seen through our vaporous atmosphere the sky appears blue.  You, with all of your technical knowledge would know this, of course.

Acts 4:24-26

“Sovereign Lord,” they said, “you made the heavens and the earth and the sea, and everything in them. You spoke by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of your servant, our father David:


“‘Why do the nations rage
    and the peoples plot in vain?
 The kings of the earth rise up
    and the rulers band together
against the Lord
    and against his anointed one.

Of course.  Light refractions and black-body absorbtion is more technical than that however, the point about 'appearances'/attributions would be even more subtle had those technicalities diffused it further, ('diffused' is a technical pun here).

Acts 4:24-26
“Sovereign Lord,” they said, “you made the heavens and the earth and the sea, and everything in them.  

The claim is retroactively-presumptive since other cultures previous to xtianity had attributed such to other "god/desses". The xtian "johnny-come-lately" egregore was not an extant belief prior to 2,000-some odd years ago, making this believer's claim retroactively-false.

More accurately, the 'not-ignored' list grows ...

Unfortunately, there's no practical method available to prevent bible-thumpers from quoting those fools.

If you do comedy for a living,no wonder you're still using fusion cash.

A personal attack? How very Christian of you.  Let me first assure you that I am not scrapping for pennies on this site, I'm actually succeeding. (look at the banner)  Also, my job is more satisfying financially and creatively than whatever pedestrian task you perform for a living.

I guarantee I am more talented, better looking and just BETTER THAN YOU at anything and everything in the world.
You use this jesus myth to make yourself significant.  The fact that you are so dull, unoriginal and boring  doesn't matter because you will be with Jesus in the after life just for praising him. It's a lie.  I can understand telling yourself this lie because  to accept mediocrity can be hard.  But jedijohnnie, I get to enjoy life RIGHT NOW.  My talent, good looks, sexual prowess and D minus level fame are making this life a pretty fun one.

You brought a knife to gun fight. Now go walk on water out of here.

Sorry, but Falcon9 has a rule that no one tells him to leave a thread, that he's entitled to be there.  So, technically, in Falcon9's book, JediJohnnie does not have to leave a thread just because you told him to.  Just saying...
