(maybe if you reflected anything I say in my posts in your posts I could make shorter paragraphs)First, can you try and write more concisely because you are given to rambling.
ah, someone who doesn't like reading, but thinks a forum of text is a good fit...got it. You don't want to read what is said, cause that makes it easier for you to get around the things you don't want to accept.By the time you've written 4 or 5 lines you've totally wondered off any point you were thinking of making and we're just left with another massive paragraph full of irrelevant, loopy, nonsense.
I finished by saying I want to talk about Love as per the OP not your misrepresentations of a God you clearly have posted as not liking.OK, you finish by saying that you want to talk about your god having a different concept of death to us mere humans as a way of explaining/excusing his passion for murder.
I also have told you many times over that none of my discussion is about excusing anything God does, much less judge it and still you go off about excusing what He did....really, you do need to stop with the misrepresentations before it turns into flaming.
as I said, in God's perspective, physical death is nothing more than (as the saying goes today) a change of address.So go for it. And yes, we are talking about physical death, as in killing people.
So, more "rambling" to explain what I am saying since you repeatedly miss it and I need to clarify everything....scripture tells the believer that this world is not our home, that the eternal nature provides the persons really home. This is compounded by the idea that this life is said to be just a vapor. One could look at it as God sped up the change of address these people would have, you know, He helped them move faster than they would have without the help. From God's perspective that was all there was to it. A help with moving from a temporary home to an eternal more permanent home. Next time you are moving, make sure not to call anyone to help, cause apparently in your eyes, that is evil....now, like I said, that does not justify what happened, all it does is show God's thought process, His mindset on the whole thing. Whether you agree or disagree is irrelevant to what His mindset was at the time.
Now, I have said it about a dozen times, how about if you allow your responses to reflect what was said?
now, I have said this so many times and you just keep ignoring it, so let me cap it, hoping you will read it because it stands out.....JUST BECAUSE WE SEE SOMETHING FROM ANOTHERS PERSPECTIVE DOES NOT MEAN THAT WE ARE SAYING IT IS GOOD, OKAY, JUSTIFIED, THAT I AGREE WITH IT OR ANY OTHER FORM OF NON SENSE YOU KEEP TRYING TO CLAIM....TO KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT IT IS ANOTHER DISCUSSION COMPLETELY, ONE THAT IS NOT APPROPRIATE FOR THIS THREAD.You wish to make the case that killing people is OK for your god,
I have 5 kids, they are mostly grown now, but I have over the years gotten very angry at some of the things they did. Things that if I had not loved them, wouldn't have bothered me at all. It was because I loved them that I got angry at their behavior. Even today, my Love occasionally produces an anger at their behavior. I don't know if you have kids, but I'm pretty sure you have parents Do you really believe that every time they got angry with you it was because they hated you instead of Loving you? If that is what you believe, we really seriously need to have a crash course in Love before we move on.because all the people he kills go to happyland in the sky afterwards. Well, apart from the ones he kills because he's angry of course, which would be all us them. But his anger is really just love in disguise isn't it?
Don't have a clue what you think you are saying here. So far, you have reinvented the God of the bible to fit your opinions and then tried to engage us in a discussion of the real God of the Bible and gotten upset because the two were not the same God. That is at best dishonest and at worse inflammatory. How about putting down the fake twisted ideas of who God is and actually discuss for a moment the God of the Bible that you claim to be referring to. It would make the discussion flow much better and would help to keep us on topic. Otherwise you just sounds like and angry atheist on a christian board trying to stir trouble and inflame negative emotions, like that gives you some kind of high or something.Anyway, for some reason the straightforward concept of a loving god who doesn't need to kill anyone is out of the question. Can't imagine why but there we are. I know, you go ahead. Make your case. Concisely.
