Blaspheme?

I like this sub-board without the religion. :-(

yeah i've mentioned that they should use the religious sub a few times. normally i move a post and reply there but that never does any good to move stuff.

I moved my reply to a message over into that echo but that is also the only traffic I have seen in it in a while. I am wondering if some
sysops don't carry that one. Come to think of it, I bet I am not subscribed to it. Ooops.

Okay - I'm subbed - attempted to make this reply 'there' - we'll

So you have NEVER lied?

Have you ever taken something that didn't belong to you?

only download movies and tv shows.

So is that a yes?

Blaspheme?

that's bible shit. i'm ok with god.

Is that a no?

Lust?

not really.

Not really... Hmm... Sounds like a yes to me.

anyways, i'm all about god but fuck religion. that's just man's way of doing their usual bullshit. also jesus was an alien.

"All about God" - can you elaborate?

And would love to hear the explanation for "Jesus was an alien..."

It worked.

Rob said he doesn't like religion in the general sub and he makes the

hear it.

The religion sub seems to be mostly empty so why create a new one?

In the end, it comes down to whether you believe a claim made by another human being or not, and for me, I generally don't.

Do you believe George Washington existed? Abraham Lincoln?

Or another leader from your history that existed before
photographs?

There are multiple sources which all corroborate their existence. If
they did not exist, there would be problems explaning our world.

This is different to the Gods people have believed in, in which, if
they did not exist, would not cause any explanatory problems.

We have eyewitness accounts that corroborate the existence of Jesus
the Christ. He claimed to BE God and said He would die and rise again
after three days in the ground. He did this - again, eyewitness
accounts corroborate this.

If He managed to do this, then His claim of being God is legit.

I'm not close minded, I have experienced things that defy e
myself, but I need to see/experience something myself to believe.

I dare say you believe a LOT of what you have been 'taught' to
believe, even though you didn't see or experience it... :-) Most
of us do.

Not all of it. There are some things people say are true, which I know are not, and there are some things people say are not true, which I
know are.

As for things that I did not see, such as the Cambrian explosion, my adherence to that truth is as strong as it needs to be. The more doubt
I have, or more specifically, the more the possibility that there is
room that I am wrong, the less forceful I am with that belief.

My point is though that you believe in a LOT of things that you have never personally seen. We as humans take the word of historical accounts all
the time.

It would be nice to keep the religious discussions on the religion subboard, since Digital Man was accomodating enough to create one.

I sincerely hope no one has read any of my posts and thought I

just pass right on by. No one is forcing me to read or respond to
anything, and I don't think anyone else is forced to read or respond
to mine.

That being said, I thought we were all having a polite discourse.

Nobody was being harassed, and nobody thought they were being harassed. That one guy is just parroting what he's been shown over the years: Religion must be attacked. The only problem i saw was people weren't taking it to religious sub when they should have. ---

Moving this one too, even though the comments themselves are very
general... Now that I know not only that I CAN, but also HOW to
move the reply. :-)

Easy, easy Jimmy no one is saying you were rabid, just having a polite
discourse in the wrong forum. You're right, no one is forced to read
posts. It's just easier to disregard them if they are in a message
area
that they actually represent.

Have a wonderful day!

LOL - okay - I wasn't offended; I was concerned I had accidently
offended someone else. :-)

But now I know how to move them - like this one! :-)

I appreciate the reply, but I'd encourage you to look again at what
Jesus said about Himself. No one takes my life from me, but I lay it
down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority
to take it up again. John 10:18

Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. John 14:9

Jesus didn't just say He was a servant of God. He claimed divine
authority. And the eyewitness accounts confirm He rose just as He
said He would.

You mentioned the Trinity being nonsense, but that truth wasn't
invented later. It is rooted in Jesus' own words, and it was
affirmed by the early church long before councils and denominations:

The Apostles Creed (2nd century) says I believe in Jesus Christ,
His only Son, our Lord who was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended to the dead. On the third day He rose again.

Not a man resurrected by God, but God the Son acting in unity with
the Father and the Spirit just as He always said He would.

Of course, "The Trinity" is just a descriptor. My claim is that
Jesus is just as much God as the one we call the Father. God
exists outside of time, space, and matter, so to be born as a
man, He had to step out of eternity while still remaining in
eternity.

I understand the argument, but I have a book which has eyewitness

Yep, and I believe they saw something. I don't believe it came
from another planet, but if enough people say they saw something,
then I believe they did.

Here's the difference: They saw something, but with no explanation
of what it was so they filled in the blanks with their own imagination.

If they had been communicated with by the "aliens" and told where
they came from, there's no way to corroborate that. They can claim
to be from Beta Reticuli (or whatever that place was called), and
there's no way to prove it. Jesus, on the other hand, proved what
He said by doing what He said He would do.

The aliens are a whole different conversation - which I'm happy
to have. :-)

Church dogma.

The Bible says otherwise. Colossians 1:15. And the other 2 verses
already noted. If you care to read them.
