That is correct.

Faith is a dangerous thing, since the object of one's faith could be a god of destruction,* a god of submission,** gods of nature,*** or God.

That's why I cringe when educatees equate our love-thine-enemy God with Shakti or Allah.

* Remember Shoko Asahara?

** Remember Mohammad?

***
Remember Einstein?

Save this kind of crap to the appropriate theology forums.

I know and I hope one day you will, God works through anybody He choses, even a athiest, a nonbeliever. if that day comes and you start to believe in a Creator, then you as well will know what I mean when I say God uses any tool in His tool box for God created them all, you as well.
Cool.

So what would you call me?

Are you always this evasive. Or does my non-belief scare you?

Do I seem scared to you, lol.. I've lived my life among the people rather they are believers of God or Not, I love all people, and wish nothing more than to have a postive relationship with them. is that going to happen slim chance indeed. but none the less I strive too.

You ask and I replied with a song, I think you are quite intelligent enough to understand that,

Yes, unwilling to exchange ideas, replying with non sequitur and not answering questions is a sign of being scared.

I'm willing but there is only so much mind twisting I will have patience with, at some point it becomes pointless and then it's time to wipe the dust off my feet and carrying on, just you merely saying I am scared shows me your intentions without a doubt.

There is more to be scared about than a nonbeliever/athiest, that stuff is child's play,

Gene Roddenberry would be proud.
You may be getting him confused with his co writers. They were "Jewish". This teaching comes from Kabbalah and some people believe the oral tradition goes back to Moses. Of course Jesus taught about the mustard seed but people get confused trying to figure out what He was talking about.

Is a mustard seed the smallest seed?

Jesus said it was. Jesus was not comparing the mustard seed to all other seeds in the world, but to seeds that a local, Palestinian farmer might have “sowed in his field”. You have to look at three things here, context, context & context. Of course if you take anything out of context you can warp and twist it. You are helping me to make my point that people miss the point of his message.

They call themselves atheists but maybe they are polytheistic. It all depends on what alter or alters they worship at.

Yes and I wonder what is a Atheist or polytheistic doing on a Christian forum, surely it's nothing but a hobby a game for them to do.

I don't believe the poster is really interested, he is only interested in confusions. makes me think he might not be a athiest after all.

They worship at the alter of mars or venus. They like destruction. They like to war. According to Cain it is Baal worship. The new age is made up of the old paganism.

Yup, evilness will exploit many things to achieve one thing destruction and It doesn't really care about the instrument to achieve it.

So the Bible’s not literal. I’ve got no problem with that.

Says the guy who won’t answer a question.

I think you have a need to protect your beliefs, and is scared to challenge your beliefs. I think you might not be theist after all.
