Looking for all the missing links

[Split Rock]

I am very disappointed with that person.

Disappointed because he turned his back on creationism after realizing he was lied to?

He is one not worthy to talk to.

What an arrogant statement! I would say YOU are the one unworthy to talk to.

If you see no point in it, then why do you suck up to Satan?
​

AS an atheist I reject all gods.
Satan would have to have god-like powers at least, so I reject him as well.

I'm appalled that someone would lower themselves to asking "Why do you suck up to Satan?" under such circumstances. I hasten to add that such insulting and lamentable behavior is not representative of the teachings of Jesus Christ. It also stands in sharp contrast to the Apostle Paul's address on Mar's Hill. Even though his audience held views sharply different from his own, Paul looked for ideas shared in common and did not insult his audience.

Again and again I find myself embarrassed by the behavior of some who claim to reflect the teachings of Jesus Christ in their lives but their conduct shows an entirely different pattern. So all I can say is that a great many of us are appalled at that behavior.

If satan advocates charity work and donations, giving blood, working hard to be the best i can, looking after my family to ensure they are the best that they can be, asking for and giving respect...

That is Humanism. I was raised a Secular Humanist. That is wonderful to help others. But I needed help with issues I had to deal with and Humanism had nothing to offer in that regard for me. Neither did Science. That is why I had to look for answers and solutions and found them in the Christian belief system and in the Bible.

The Bible is Written Recorded History.

It is, for the most part, not. And the parts that are, are almost unusable for historical purposes.

Yes no doubt you hasten to add insults. Quit judging others for what you are guilty of. It is getting old real fast. You need to grow up and quit acting like a child.

What a great example of dishonest quote-mining!

Yes, it is getting quite tiresome. But, when its all you've got to work with....

And once again, such rude and dishonest behavior is not at all in harmony with the teachings of Jesus Christ. (Does anyone actually believe that this kind of conduct is what Jesus intended for his followers? Is anyone drawn to the Kingdom of God by such behavior? I will leave that question for readers, both theists and non-theists to decide.)

You could not be further from the truth. They use the Bible all the time to understand the ruins that they find from that period of time in the Middle East. If you want to study European History I suppose the Bible would not have much value for you.

The Bible goes back 6,000 years. Do you even have any German history that goes back more then 2500 years?

Quiting would do you good, John. Your behaviour is getting extremly unworthy of what you claim to propagate.

I'd strongly advise you to question your conscience if you really think that you are behaving as you would like a follower of the God of Truth and Love to behave.

If you really think you are doing that, you can add one to the list of people that you personally pushed away from ever considering Christianity.

 

[Jazer]

Dishonest quote-mining again.

You do not get it do you. I have told you many, many, many times. Even I can learn in 7 or 8 reps. YOU ARE THE ONE THAT IS GUILTY OF WHAT YOU ARE ACCUSING OTHERS OF. In fact you are the only "dishonest quote-mining person" around here. But people around here really don't care. We all have to be careful of what we accuse others of. Because we maybe telling them about ourselves. Like you just did. The only source I quote is the Bible. The Bible pretty much speaks for itself. In Bible school they tell us to teach ANYTHING from the Bible. Any Bible truth you get in people will be to their advantage.

Read it.

YOU ARE THE ONE THAT IS GUILTY OF WHAT YOU ARE ACCUSING OTHERS OF.

Read it again.

YOU ARE THE ONE THAT IS GUILTY OF WHAT YOU ARE ACCUSING OTHERS OF.

And now consider this carefully: who was it who said: "In fact you are the only "dishonest quote-mining person" around here."

The abyss, John, the abyss. Remember the abyss!

So R U saying I do not have to worry about spending eternity with people like you.
When this life is over we will part and go our separate ways?

 

[Jazer]

YOU ARE THE ONE THAT IS GUILTY OF WHAT YOU ARE ACCUSING OTHERS OF.

Yes I am, that is what I just said. But I am not accusing anyone here. Again we agree, this is amazing.

You understand the meaning of a "quote-mine". Right? (If not, read the above.)

[Jazer]

He said "dishonest quote-mining person". I would never think to call someone that.
Interestingly enough you admit that he is guilty of what he accuses others of.

The abyss, John, the abyss. Remember the abyss!

What is the abyss your talking about? Is that the bottomless pit or the lake of fire?

The teaching is that the bride will be without spot, blemish or wrinkle.
Pure and clean and living a life free from Sin. Holy & Blameless before God.

As Paul says Phil 3:12 NIV
"Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect,
but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me".

Will you grow up and quit acting like a child? Having a conversation with you is like being on the playground in grade school. That is why I left public school to get away from nonsense like this. That is why the Principal and Director of my high school excaped Germany before the Holocaust. To get away from what went down in Germany. That is why our Dorm Father Pole Volted over the fense to get out of that concerntration camp he was in.

We all knew that the Nazi Germany comparison was coming!

Yes, when one runs out of evidence and the usual trite name-calling proves ineffective, there is always the guilt-by-association tactic.

The Holocaust association was a nice (but predictable) touch.

Once again, readers, such tactics are not at all in harmony with the teachings of Jesus Christ.

No, you would never think of doing that. That's why you said:

No, not you! Never you! You are pure and clean and holy and blameless before God.

Good bye, John. I have met a lot of self-righteous "Christians" in my time here, but your persona in the last few weeks tops all of them. I won't adress you again.

 

[verysincere]

Freodin, there's nothing quite like FACTS to clarify a matter.

Well said.

I am not appalled by that statement.
I'm not bothered one little bit by it.

It just shows what is simmering away under someone's skin.

That is Humanism. I was raised a Secular Humanist. That is wonderful to help others. But I needed help with issues I had to deal with and Humanism had nothing to offer in that regard for me. Neither did Science. That is why I had to look for answers and solutions and found them in the Christian belief system and in the Bible.

God didn't help you hold your temper though, did he?

I would argue that I am a better human being without god than you are with.

You do not get it do you. I have told you many, many, many times. Even I can learn in 7 or 8 reps. YOU ARE THE ONE THAT IS GUILTY OF WHAT YOU ARE ACCUSING OTHERS OF.

In Bible school they tell us to teach ANYTHING from the Bible. Any Bible truth you get in people will be to their advantage.

And this quote again demonstrates my point.

You are angry and project your anger onto those around you - even in a chat forum!

i really think you need to have a few words wth yourself/

No. That guy cowardly ran away from my basic question to him, but turned around to thrown out ignorant challenges to others right in the same thread. I would say it is a shameless behave.

I do learn things beyond CvE in this forum. Outside the cyber world, I don't think I have opportunity to see such person.

You still owe me one: what is the definition of human?
