Why are there so many atheists on a Christian site?

[Colter]

Are you the final judge on who believes in Christianity and Jesus?

Sorry bud, I don't think so. I said I was a Christian for 40 years and I believed in it. That bothers you to no end, that someone would leave your faith, so you have to manufacture this whole; you were not truly a Christian deal. It is an old and very weak argument and reeks of desperation.



How would you know if someone knew Jesus? What is the criteria you have in your own mind to judge others in this regard?

Had you been all in you would have answered the questions but you didn't.

It doesn't bother me beyond the sad fact that you turned away from Jesus who reaches out for you. Judas turned away, people do that, Lucifer did that, it's not uncommon. But something tells me you were ever all in. I'm all in, you asked and I answered without reservation. Its not a matter of judgment, besides you left so you judge yourself out of your own admission.

One could say this about anything he imagines. We have found Sparky the Wonder Unicorn and he does exist. The number of people who believe a certain thing exists has no bearing on whether or not that thing exists. Indeed belief in gods requires one to accept the primacy of consciousness metaphysics which would mean that there is no difference between what one imagines and what is real.

Imagination doesn't make something real.

Coming from Mr. Let me tell you how you really feel, that is a complete shock.

I understand it is part of your defense mechanism to feel you know others better than they can explain on their own. I understand it brings you temporary comfort in telling yourself these things, but you certainly aren't fooling anyone, except..........

Sparky the Wonder Unicorn's spirit is inside of you, if and when you ever surrender and get out of your own way, you can find him, he isn't hiding.

But that isn't true, that's just the pig headed rambling are your garden variety Rand-bot.

 

[TheBarrd]

Sparky the Wonder Unicorn? I wondered where he had got to.
I think he's had enough excitement for one afternoon...time for him to go home to his dinner.

On my world view, which is premised on the primacy of existence, this is true. Not so on a worldview premised on the primacy of consciousness.

How do you know it is not true?

 

[Ahermit]

Luke 23:34 Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."

Sustained!

Cosmic intuition.

How do you know that I do not know the presence of the spirit of God.

 

[bhsmte]

Cosmic intuition.

Sounds funky.

You may, but let us know when you can demonstrate it.

Spiritual laziness us no excuse, with God you have to do the finding yourself.

I would call the person that makes claims, yet can't demonstrate them, to be the lazy one.

I don't remember claiming that you don't. I asked you to provide me with a reliable method to distinguish what you call the presence of the spirit of God from something you may merely be imagining. You have failed repeatedly to do so. Therefore, I am justified in thinking that you are merely imagining it.

You win the cop out award for 2015 with that right there.

I wrote and rewrote certain truths, but realized that all I am doing is shining a torch for those that will not see the light. Their are some who are not even willing to be willing. It is as if fear and evil have starved them to a point where all they know anymore is what has starved them.

Feeding of others is what evil do to sustain itself. Evil has no self-sustaining power source of its own. It can only feed of the tensions bled by others. Evil has no concept of unconditional love - the expression of spiritual truth, for it does not operating from spiritual truth. Evil is imprisoned here on this world, roaming around looking wherever there is tension to feed of. Its greatest fear is starving/losing energy, similar to self-esteem (ego-energy).

This worldly imprisonment also includes imprisonment to only having worldly points of view. It takes faith to grasp another viewpoint. Non-believers only see their worldly view. Believers not only see the worldly view, but also the spiritual view. So who are the losers?
