Daily Bible Verse

[jcribb16]

... you are really reaching.  You can stop calling us hypocrites - you are showing your own hypocrisy by doing that.

I'll stop when you xtians stop being hypocrites.  Since I am not a faith-blinded follower of your superstitious beliefs, I'm not the ones envincing the noted hypocrisy.  Though such logic demonstrably ecapes you, (as you have previously made abundantly clear and even provided extensive archived evidence to substantiate that contention), your hypocrisy may be revealing to others.

There again, sir, it is none of your business that Christians choose to believe in God.  They are not hypocrites just because of that.  You may think they are, according to your personal reasoning of the matter, but they are not hypocrites just because you say so.  They have made a choice as you have, and neither they, nor you, deserve to be berated for the choices made.

You are so ridiculous.  

You are disingenuous.

No one is "initially" spreading anything - those who enjoy those threads just want to do that - enjoy them.

False.  This thread wa initiated by a religious adherent who was obviously already aware of the "bible verses" she was requoting.  There are a limited number of reasons to account for that.  Either she was "spreading" hat stuff or, reminding forgetful/unaware xtians of something they could look up themselves.  Therefore, she, (and the other fundies adding more requoted regurgitations of religious propaganda), were proselytizing a faith-based belief system.  There's no inherent 'right' to unopposed proselytization, just as there's no inherent 'right' to proselytize.  FC permite both the proselytizing and dissenting opposition to it.  Your continued attempts to restrict the exchange of differing viewpoints by suppressing ones you don't like continue to fail.

No, they are hypocrites under the definition of that term because they are requoting regurgitated resligious strictures which they do not follow.  That's why, not because someone else has logically determined that they have.

We're both already posting in this thread; it's not an exclusive xtian preserve, nor does "F.C." stand for 'fundie xtian'.

... you are "already" posting because you chose to enter a thread ... 

Wow, you are really trying to reach again!  You are right F.C. doesn't stand for "fundie xtian."  Sarcasm reason?  Because xtian starts with "x."  Reality wise?  You are the only one who seems to enjoy coming up with telling others that F.C. doesn't stand for Fundie Christian.  You are being sarcastic anyway with the "fundie" name calling.  

Alternatively, F.C. doesn't stand for on atheist views, either.  Both views have a right to be discussed in the forum, whether debating, or by sharing encouragement/inspiration (in an off-topic thread.)  I have no problem with either.  I am not an atheist, but I do not hate atheists and will not go into their thread (if ever made) to just deliberately troll and bash.  We, after all, are supposed to be mature adults, and if we don't agree on things, then yes, let's talk about it and present some discussion.  But the "hogwash" of intolerance, hateful name calling, and sarcasm, should not be directed like that to either side.

Lol.Falcon is so afraid to spell Christian,his mocking makes no sense.

Don't be afraid to spell Christian,Falcon.I'm sure you won't melt like the Wicked Witch of the West on a rainy day.

It's not name-calling because "fundie", (or fundamentalist), is a descriptive term applied by xtians to other xtians.  That term indicates a xtian with a unwavering 'belief' in an "inerrant bible", (among other descriptors).  Since this applies to several self-professed xtians on FC, it's accurate and not libelous.

Alternatively, F.C. doesn't stand for on atheist views, either.  Both views have a right to be discussed in the forum, whether debating, or by sharing encouragement/inspiration (in an off-topic thread.)

That's partially accurate, although such exchanges can and do occur in any forum or thread.

 I have no problem with either.

That's a manifestly false assertion, given the abundant evidence you've posted to the contrary.

I am not an atheist, but I do not hate atheists and will not go into their thread (if ever made) to just deliberately troll and bash.

While there are, (currently), no specifically "atheist" threads, you have gone into a thread concerning "wicca" just to troll me personally.

[jcribb16]

You are so wrong about that, sir.  No one was starting a Bible verse thread just to spread hate stuff, and there's no need to "make" other Christians have to look up a verse, if they so choose to quote it for other believers for inspiration of verses they enjoy themselves.  It's not propaganda to other believers - it's very real and personal.  

You are correct in the FC allows what you said.  However, you are the one who is attempting to restrict the believers from enjoying what they enjoy, including their viewpoints and their verses, quotes, and inspiration.  

I'm not trying to suppress opposition, especially when there are adults challenging, debating, and discussing.  But opposition, maturely as adults, does not include harassing, name calling, sarcasm, and hateful remarks, pics, and quotes - those things are expressing intolerance and hatred of someone's true beliefs to them, and are most certainly not mature, adult, and dissenting views.

You are being judgmental.  You don't see them in their real life outside of this forum, so you don't know what they are following or not following.  You sure aren't known on here for tolerance and respect to believers; you are known to be able to discuss and joke around with others outside of Bible threads, yet show a whole other side of unkindness and intolerance toward believers.  And yet, we do not know how you act in your personal life - and it's not up to you to play "god" and decide what believers follow or don't follow.  Everyone, remember, is accountable for their own actions and behavior, whether good or bad - everyone.

And to believers - our Bible verses, especially favored ones, are not regurgitated to us - to you, maybe - to us, no way.

[jcribb16]

While there are, (currently), no specifically "atheist" threads, you have gone into a thread concerning "wicca" just to troll me personally.

You have no room to speak about me going into the wicca thread.  I am not in the habit of trolling you specifically in threads like that.  I did ask you some questions in there, of which you answered.  And you do know that wicca threads are not atheist threads.  I will not bash you in an atheist thread just because I don't follow that thinking. 

And once again, I do not have a problem with Bible threads and atheist threads being posted - there is no evidence to the contrary about that.  I promote at least respect and tolerance towards people with their personal choices, even if I don't agree with them.  I will not call you, an atheist, the same hateful words you like to use towards believers.  I do call you "athei" as you call believers "fundie."  Since you have clarified that "fundie" is okay to use, then I'm assuming "athei" is of the same clarification for an atheist.

False.  This thread was initiated by a religious adherent who was obviously already aware of the "bible verses" she was requoting.  There are a limited number of reasons to account for that.  Either she was "spreading" hat stuff or, reminding forgetful/unaware xtians of something they could look up themselves.  Therefore, she, (and the other fundies adding more requoted regurgitations of religious propaganda), were proselytizing a faith-based belief system.  There's no inherent 'right' to unopposed proselytization, just as there's no inherent 'right' to proselytize.  FC permite both the proselytizing and dissenting opposition to it.  Your continued attempts to restrict the exchange of differing viewpoints by suppressing ones you don't like continue to fail.

You are so wrong about that, sir.  No one was starting a Bible verse thread just to spread ...

I replied directly to the context of who these "verse" threads were started by; xtians.  Their excuses for doing so are immaterial to the resultant offensive spreading of religious propaganda.  Other xtians already have access to such "verses", (which is how they're able to post them).  Reposting what's already available to xtians constitutes proselytizing, which many non-xtians find to be offensive.

You are correct in the FC allows what you said.  However, you are the one who is attempting to restrict the believers from enjoying what they enjoy, including their viewpoints and their verses, quotes, and inspiration.  

On the contrary, I have specified several times that religious adherents have the same option to publically post, (or not post), their specious superstitious beliefs as non-xtians do to post, (or not post), any dissenting/opposing viewpoints.  Nothing is being restricted by such a stance.  The archived records show that it is xtians, (such as yourself), who have repeatedly attempted to suppress viewpoints which oppose/disagree with such religious beliefs.

I'm not trying to suppress opposition, especially when there are adults challenging, debating, and discussing.  

False.  There are numerous archived posts authored by you which have repeated attempted to censor views opposing xtianity by trying to restrict/limit such opposition to forms which don't successfully challenge a blind faith basis in religious superstitions.  Since you are not an FC moderator, (and FC mods to not directly moderate any debates under a "less is more" policy), your repeated attempts to censor have failed.

[falcon9]

You have no room to speak about me going into the wicca thread. 

Yes, I do and can show the exact post where you came into that thread specifically to 'defend' some poor xtian who attacked wicca in that thread.

I am not in the habit of trolling you specifically in threads like that. 

Well, not anymore, true.  Ever since the whole pseudo-'blog' debacle where several of you xtians, (yourself included), did in fact purposefully troll me in other threads which you had no prior participation.  That stampeding herd was unsuccessful and resulted in the loss of some of the 'herd'.

I did ask you some questions in there, of which you answered.  And you do know that wicca threads are not atheist threads.

I didn't claim that the wiccan thread was an atheist one; I stated that it was a thread concerning wiccan beliefs.
 

I will not bash you in an atheist thread just because I don't follow that thinking.

What thinking; logic and rationality?  I'm previously aware that you don't employ such reasoning.
 

I will not call you, an atheist, the same hateful words you like to use towards believers.  I do call you "athei" as you call believers "fundie."  Since you have clarified that "fundie" is okay to use, then I'm assuming "athei" is of the same clarification for an atheist.

How do you know that I'm an "atheist"?  Have I self-declared as one, as you xtians have?  Are you assuming that I am through some heretofor unknown 'thought process'?

God blesses those people who are merciful. They will be treated with mercy! God blesses those people whose hearts are pure. They will see him! God blesses those people who make peace. They will be called his children! — Matthew 5:7-9 (CEV)

[falcon9]

There's not a shred of evidence to support such 'biblical' religious claims therefore, they are a result of blind faith.

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened … If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!” (Matthew 7:7-11)
