MY FRIEND,Are you going to be mean to me?
Does everything a non-christian posts have to have a sinister meaning? Sheesh, I didn't see that coming. There's already a thread about "Why are atheists considered to be so dishonest?" Maybe you would feel more at home there.MY FRIEND,
His point is--what was your point?
How is your linked bit of silliness concerning a to-be-pitied mentally ill individual remotely connected with the Forum's stated purpose of "exploring Christianity?"
Why would you think some of the older members would enjoy this skewering of a helpless and confused human being?

Unfortunately, being a non-believer, you have shackles far above and beyond anything you can find at C.F. Have you considered that this Site is, by design, Christian and you are a guest therein. Should the rules rankle, the internet is chock full of other, non-Christian spots to hang out and veg--spiritually speaking.Why did I post it here, you ask? I don't get to post anywhere I want to on here as the bible... err rules tell me so, and thus I'm limited to a few zones. Because of the shackles placed on me here, this forum was the closest match for my thread.
Yes, i understand, but next time try the Entertainment Forum at:I remember this guy when I was growing up. My dad and I would try to spot him first when we watched golf on TV. I thought his story might be interesting to others who remembered this guy. You know, maybe you remember him, maybe you wondered what became of him? That sort of thing.
i can think of no other logical reason for posting what you did where you did.You two expect that I'm poking fun at your religion because this "John 3:16 guy" ended up going nuts?!?
The correct lyric is: "Stop, children, what's that sound?" Remember?I didn't expect the Spanish Inquitision!! I'll definitely be more guarded next time... wait... what was that noise!!
MY FRIEND,
The "sinister" is not in the meaning--it is in the meaningLESSNESS. Personally, i don't consider atheists dishonest so much victims of their slavery to their 5 senses which, of course, can at best provide them with only half the Story of our existence. They are more to be pitied than censured so, no, i wouldn't "feel more at home there."

My friend?!? You start off like that and then spew your prideful arrogance? I'd hate to think what you do with your enemies.MY FRIEND,
MY DEAR FRIEND,In fact I'll venture you'd pick a fight with anything I post wouldn't you?
Dude you fell for it! You disagreed when I suggested you'd argue with me about anything. Now both Abba and I can lay claim to you.No. i don't consider sharing my beliefs regarding the TRUTH as picking fights.

No it isn't.This discussion is starting to sound like the famous Monty Python sketch "the argument clinic".

MY DEAR FRIEND,Now both Abba and I can lay claim to you.
Quite the contrary--my primary reason for becoming Abba's adopted son--and, of course, fan as well--is the final realization that "my own approval or disapproval" means absolutely nothing. What i am in Abba's eyes is ALL i am."In the end it's really only my own approval or disapproval that means anything." -- Agnetha Faltskog
Is this one of your primary reasons for being an Abba fan?
As you surmised, i beg to differ--i say that the earth revolves around Abba.Let's go for broke. I say the earth revolves around the sun...
You had me there for a moment. I thought you were either certifiably nuts, were playing along with my Abba jokes, or there is a name for God that I had never heard. I actually assumed you were talking about the band "Abba" when you say you're "Abba's Fool". I had a nagging suspicion that maybe you were referring to an obscure name for God that I had never heard of. Touché!MY DEAR FRIEND,
Au contraire--given that i have surrendered myself totally, completely, irrevocably, and eternally--such as i am--to Abba, you can not possibly have any "claim" on me.
