[QUOTE="drich0150, post: 59780880, member: 218229"] 10 years ago Pluto was a planet like any other in this solar system. a few years ago scientific "truth" changed, and Pluto lost it's planetary status. The reason you see nothing is because you have chosen to only focus on Pluto's planetary status rather than addressing the blatant hypocrisy that allows you to demand absolute unchangeable always verifiable truth, when dealing with God, but will accept whatever the popular scientific "truth" is currently being taught with out question (according to the correction about Pluto's dwarf planet status, you insightfully left for me.):smarty: What's the difference? that with the previous statement you have proven you have completely closed your mind to the idea of God. [B][/B][B][/B]Perhaps you should have looked past yourself and you peers to find Him. [U]Again according to Luke 11.[/U] "Knocked Asked Begged, cried." what do they all have in common? They are in the past tense. meaning you are not Ask Seek or knocking. Your effort is not consistent with how we have been instructed to look for God. So why are you surprised you did not find him? What if you took this same effort to a bar or on a blind date? would an emotional stable woman/person look to connect with you if knock asked begged and cried? why would God? what did you think? that because you were in need God would be there? God seeks more from you than the codependency you were looking for from Him. That is why Knocking was included in the list. What is knocking? it is the repetitious persistent actions of a determined man. The knocking illustrated in Luke 11 did not have a time limit nor a stipulation that tells us only to ask and seek when we are in the mood to do so, and quit when God did not obey or run to your calling efforts.. If you wish to ask then do so in prayer, we seek in places like this, in church and in the bible, and again we knock by repeating this process till we find what we have diligently sought after. Asking seeking and knocking is not an event. (One can never put this act in the past tense) It is indeed the way you are to spend the rest of your life. Perhaps it would be easier if they were made available. All i have been presented with so far, is contempt and anger. when ever I start to explore or rational break down and try to explain anything you have asked you take a childish personal jab as a way to try and deflect the conversation away from a rational process into a argumentative one. Look my confused brother the quality of question is simply not there. Even when I try and salvage the conversation, any legitimate efforts on my part are met with a juvenile deflection on yours. Eg: The last two "witty" retorts were perfect examples of a juvenile deflections. Keep them coming. :comeon: And another.. Now we have turned out and out personal! These are truly the last vestiges of a desperate intellect. What's next "your mama jokes?" I was close :) [/QUOTE]
