Not really reading books on Quantum Physics can be stressful. And I would be careful that almost sounds insulting the Mods will not like such a post  |
Worse things are said about the Bible than it is a stressful piece of literature. And by stressful I mean stresses me out that billions take it seriously. One of the few remaining artifacts of the bronze age that still have relevance to people, somehow |
Why does it bother you do you really think we all share the same views of the bible when we do not. Or that you don't like the fact that many people have a religious faith that almost sounds like your prejudice against religious people. I thought since your a atheist they do not have such prejudice beliefs? |

That's ridiculous. Disagreeing with an idea is not a prejudice against any person. Or, as Christians say, "Hate the sin but not the sinner". |

Why do bad things happen to good people?
Difficulty: must not have been addressed already in Job (which is an excellent read if you haven't read it already). |

To claim it is a fact you must have proof of your cliams which you don't |

The bible has laws. It is stated in the bible that christians must follow those laws. You don't.
The only conclusion based off of those facts, is that you are not a christian.

Yes and I have stated those laws to you which I follow plenty of times now the laws of moses which are the laws christians are to follow. Moral of the story your opinon of me is very irrelevant. Every time you give me a question I will change the answer why because it's funny to me |

I am a Christian and I also believe that a relationship with God is the most important. Right now, due to my life changing, I don't have a church, but I help run an outreach and I believe that it will grow. A lot of things have happened to me that I cannot really explain very well on WP, but I assure you that these things are way beyond the comprehensions of my family and I. Let's just say that supernatural events have occured and my family and I have taken our faith to the next level. HE is now the center of everything in our lives.

I am glad to hear that but just be ready for the WP atheists to attack you for posting that. |

I guess I'll just have to be a duck. I've already fought the atheist battle before and I have no desire to fight again. Just let them believe what they wish.

Make up your mind. First you say you don't follow the OT, now you say you do. You're picking and choosing your faith. You aren't a christian, you're a guy making his own little religion out of an old book. |
I follow the laws of moses if their are laws in the bible but if their not of the laws of moses I do not follow thenm the last thing I need is a atheist telling me what I am and am not you talking about God in the first place is very silly and a waste of your time go talk about science or something not related to religion it sutis you more |
I will gladly tell you what you are not, when you are not it. It's much the same as I will gladly tell someone with no qualifications they aren't a quantum physicist.
I will stop talking about god, when god is completely erased from politics, laws, and other areas of extremely broad effect. It would be far sillier of me to accept christian laws that I firmly believe are horseapples than it is for me to argue. Aside from that, I enjoy religious debates. |

SO when you cannot defend your position just scapegoat the via forum rules? It sounds like he is making a valid point... and I also agree with his last paragraph by the way... |
