Oh right, you support the option because you have to, according to the forum rules.  Okay - I'll give you that one.  But trying to make Christians look bad and trying to hush them up - nope - can't give those to you, when they are glaringly obvious. 

What's glaringly-obvious about your false accusations is the fact of archived evidence to the contrary which makes them lies.

No lies.  Your false accusations, intolerance, and hateful words are in fact archived evidence, as well as copied in my own personal notes ...

Your speciously-biased opinions interpreting archived evidence aren't evidence.  There are unedited, archived posts which contradict your denials and substantiate the contention that you've lied.  Your personal opinion that opposition to your religious superstitions are "false accusations, intolerance and hateful words" does not constitute evidence.

in the event you have tried to go back and change anything from the original comments you made.  Is that the best you can come back with? 

Beyond correcting a typo here and there, I haven't "tried to go back and change anything from the original comments ..."  Your insinuation is uncalled-for and contemptible.  In turn, (and under the auspicess of the "golden rule"), I can speculate that perhaps you're the one planning on trying "to go back and change anything from the original comments" you made.  That won't work since FC has records of the original, unedited posts and would be able to determine where and when you lied in your posts in your forlorn attempt to silence opposition.

Lol, trying to twist it around on me.  Wow!  How pitiful.  And the fact that you responded so defensively says either you honestly responded because you haven't done it, or it means you've done it or thought about it.  Either way, it doesn't bode well to turn it around and re-write it to me - I wrote it to you and know what I said - you are just repeating to make it look like you are in control.  I'll give you credit for trying, though!

... you honestly responded because you haven't done it ...

That's correct, the remainder of your snidely-false insinuations weren't worth my time.

Many of your "snidely-false accusations" aren't worth my time either.  I will say something when I choose to, though, when you are going too far.  Even then, they aren't worth my time, but supporting other Christians' backs is what we do as brothers and sisters in Christ, and we will stand up for each other and for our Lord.

[falcon9]

... supporting other Christians' backs is what we do as brothers and sisters in Christ, and we will stand up for each other and for our Lord.

That's what I was referring to when I accurately characterized your pretense at being some sort of self-appointed defender of weak superstitious beliefs.  The self-delusion wrapped up with such a pretense is apparently related to the same religious self-delusions and tacit implication of blind faith being so weak that it needs such 'defense'.

Think what you want - it's no biggie to me.  We support each other - I don't do all of the supporting.  If even that kind of thing bothers you, you've got it bad.  That's really sad...

Proverbs 3:5-8
King James Version (KJV)
5 "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.

8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones."


(NIV)
5 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart
    and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways submit to him,
    and he will make your paths straight.[a]
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes;
    fear the Lord and shun evil.
8 This will bring health to your body
    and nourishment to your bones."

"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding."

Why would anyone capable of rational thought processes "trust" in some hypothetical entity for which no valid evidence has been presented to substantiate "its" existence?  Why would such irrationality be preferred over rationality, and blind faith over evidence? 

[hitch0403]

YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RADISHES ALL OVER

[jcribb16]

"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding."

Why would anyone capable of rational thought processes "trust" in some hypothetical entity for which no valid evidence has been presented to substantiate "its" existence?  Why would such irrationality be preferred over rationality, and blind faith over evidence? 

Unless you have experienced the "trust" through "faith" in God, of course you would not understand how that works.  Once experienced, the truth is seen and known.  At least you are asking valid questions.  Thank you for that.

It is unnecessary to experience drowning to determine in advance that it wouldn't be conducive to living.

Well that's nice to know.  I'm not drowning either and am quite enjoying my living in the Lord.  And for a Christian, God is one of the best things conducive to living.  To each their own, right?

What you're doing is being intentionally obtuse or, forgetting those recent posts concerning metaphorical parallels.  What, are you sharing your computer with someone else who posts different things?

You are making no sense now.  Sounds like you need a time-out to rest your over-active brain.  I'll check back tomorrow and see if you are any better.

You are making no sense now.

Your specious opinion is what makes no sense since the remarks I made are perfectly sensible. You'd previously, (and apparently, falsely), claimed to have an understanding of metaphorical parallels.  A metaphorical parallel was drawn between the experience of "drowning" and blind religious faith.  Your specious claim was that someone needs to "experience" such blind faith to understand it.  My refutation was the "drowning" metaphor.  Now that it's been 'dumbed-down' so that even a 6.66 year old could understand it, doubtless it's still over your head.

[tuscarorarain]

27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.
 
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
 
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
 
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
 
Matthew 11:27-30 King James Version Bible
