Then why was your original response to the "WHICH ONE" question: "The one and only".

If you believe they could ALL be right, or believe that perhaps there is more than one and they co-conspire to inspire and create, then you wouldn't have used the phrase "one and only".

So which is it? Do you believe every religion is right (including the polytheistic ones) or do you believe there is "one and only [one] god"??? you can't have it both ways.

 

Ah....ok.....thanks for reminding me.

"So let me ask you, TCL, why you are so sure that the Second Coming is on its way. And, frankly, "the Bible says so" is not an acceptable answer - because it doesn't stand up to independent scrutiny."

Well.... The emergency of someone who can prove the existance of God is what is actually prophesied in the book of Revs.......

you know...the last book in the bible.....which contains the only prophesy in the bible not contained in it.

The simple answer to your question is.......

It has to happen sometime.........

Why not now?

 

One and only 'God'

Many ways of looking at him/her/it.

 

First off - why does it have to happen sometime?

Did someone prove the Bible was infallible? Shit, I missed that.

You believe it's going to happen sometime. Let's go with that.

What justification do you have for saying "now" as opposed to "fifty years time"?

 

It has to be someone.........

Just think.....

It could be me.

 

You're prevaricating.

Answer the question.

 

What question?

 

Why now, not in fifty years time?

"It has to be someone" does NOT, by any stretch of the imagination, answer that question, and you know it.

 

As if xtians don't believe it's their duty to go around "saving" everyone?

When's the last time an atheist knocked on your door and asked if you "lost Jesus"?

When's the last time an atheist took "in god we trust" off the US currency?

When's the last time an atheist said that your love for someone was wrong? (Protection of Marriage act)

When's the last time an atheist felt the need to kill in the name of their "non-god"?

It seems to me that xtians are the ones going around forcing themselves on others. Atheists seem to have no choice but to voice that (although their numbers are few) they ARE a presence in the world and deserve the right to non-belief just as anyone has the right to their beliefs. The problem seems to be that xtians get in their faces about being "satanists, sinners, hell-bound, etc....THEN get upset when the atheist laughs at their idocy.

And remember. To an atheist, god is no different from Santa or the Easter Bunny. Wouldn't you laugh in the face of a full grown man who still ferverently(sp?) believed in Santa?????? I know I would. Well, that or commit him.

 

Please... don't abbreviate Christians to xtians. It implies a gross lack of respect.

 

No....fool......

Have you ever read the book of revelations?

 

The answer "it has to be someone" does not tell me why it's now. Why not someone - in 50 years time?

And yes - fool - I have read the Book of Revelations, acid trip that it was.

 

Hah.....fool

I don't think there was too much acid around on the island of Patmos that long ago.

 

So when a xtian abbreviates and uses "xmas" they're disrespecting themselves? Not just cutting down a long word to save time????

And I'll type the way I want. I don't use the full spelling because I don't want to. Just as i blaspheme his name all the time. Usually with the word "fucking" in the middle.
Just as I don't capitalize god because I don't think of it as a proper noun.

I tell you what, if jesus is SOOOO offended by my cutting his name out of a word for the purpose of typing on a porn forum, have him email me. His dad should be able to figure out my email address.....considering he's omnipotent and all. The minute I get that message, I'll stop abbreviating it.

Deal?

 

Again, you fail to answer.

And I didn't mean that John was on acid, I just meant that it was a somewhat surreal book.

 

*shrug*

Your apparent active hostility to all of Christendom saddens me, to be honest.

 

Actually, my hostility is directed toward you.

I've been on this forum for ages. And have always used the "xtian" spelling. You are the first to tell me it's disrespectful. Do you consider it disrespectful when someone uses "b/c"? Or "w/o"? Or "U R"?

Is it disrespectful when someone types LMAO or IMHO?

So why is abbreviating to xtian any more disrespectful? Or is it just a touchy subject for you?

 

Answer what....for fuck's sake?

Then why mention acid in the first place?

 

Not acid...probably more like those mushrooms they grow on Patmos....

 

Do they?

I would have thought the climate over there was a bit arid.......
