Citizen of Heaven in Christ
[[Kyle: I think RA's point was not that he didn't like it here, but that one of the resident Christians had suggested kicking atheists out of apologetics... in which case, yes, they'd go form an atheist-only board. Where no one would try to teach them about Christianity.]]
I got his point, and made my own point in a similar but zany joking manner.
[[Is that what we want?]]
Heck yeah, drive anyone out of here that doesn't believe what I believe. EXACTLY what I believe!!
And, I was just kidding. Now completely seriously...
I believe, as the Bible says, that every person should be given the free choice to believe in what they want to. No place in this world should ever be closed off for Christians only; otherwise, how would anyone that is not a Christian ever learn about Christianity!
The only time a place should be closed off or defended against on earth, is when other people are forcing others to practice a certain religion, or doing things to harm them.
I am sorry there are other people professing to be Christians out there that have no Hope for your salvation, and think you should leave. I have had posts deleted for merely expressing what the Bible says by people that profess to be Christians here, simply because it was offensive to members who did not agree with it. I believe several of the moderators are good here, but also that many are on religious authoritative power trips.
The Bible tells us there will never be a time on earth where Christians can meet together without some sort of opposition. The Bible says every Christian is to minister to non-believers with gentleness and respect, and to make the most of every opportunity. Only in Heaven will no opposition happen.
I get what he meant, and agree with him.

Yep, the world is going to hell in a handbasket. I had a grandfather that used to say that sometimes, lol.

Sorry. Looks like the plotting backfired. God WILL win, and there's nothing anyone can do about it. But I plan to be on the winning side .

Christians are such kind and caring folks!
psycmajor, what will God win? you plan on being on the winning side? how can you sleep at night knowing that over 4 billion people are going to be tortured in hell, because they are not of the same religion as you??

[END OF CONVERSATION WITH FOOLSPARADE] You assumed that because I responded, I feel guilty. I don't. Not at all; it was a statement that I felt inspired to say, without emotion even. I think you knew what your motive was. You even tried to do it a second time with that last post. Nope, didn't work. I'm smarter than that, thank you. Perhaps the only emotion I feel is pity for you. And perhaps provoked, but I have more self-discipline than to get worked up over you. Sorry to disappoint.
EDIT: IF YOU CONTINUE TO PROVOKE ME, I WILL GET A MOD AND TELL THEM THAT YOU ARE TROLLING.

I would feel bad about it if I felt there were any real chance that my explanation of the message might have put people off, who would have accepted it if I'd told the story better.

I think that what the Christians are trying to say is that God loves us because he makes everybody else go to hell. Am I right?

God love us dude, but He cant stop you from being an idiot and walking into hell. He doesnt sned anyone there. He gives em the chance, shows them the truth. Then all thats left is if you accept it or you deny. Black and white plain and simple.

Why can't God just make everyone live in heaven forever? A loving deity doesn't send you to hell, he has the power to send us to heaven, why doesn't he?

Why doesnt He? Caffeine, if your a homeless bum with no job who spends all his money on booze, do you deserve to suddenly get a million dollars out of nowehere, live a life of luxury, and have anything you want, while other people who work hard every day, who work their butts off to do there very best at where they are get nothing? No, it doesnt work that way. There are those who work for it and those who dont. Just like if you dont believe in the loving Lord who gives you the chance of everlasting life in heaven, why should you get it? Youve denounced His names, told others He wasnt real and shown nothjing but hatred toward Him, so why should He give to you what youve doubted and hated?

Well, I've never seen God, but if I die and He shows me the truth, and I accept (having seen the proof before my eyes) then I'm golden, right?
Sounds reasonable to me.

Star, what Im saying is that throughout ones life God makes Himself and all He is apparent taht he really is there before one dies, wether it be through expeirences in ones life, a fellow christian, or anything else everyone will see the truth, they will accept and know it or they will deny and remain ignorant of it.
