Believers, Non-Believers & Morality

Not at all. As I said twice before, considering the amount of provoking of Christians that occurs in here from atheists and other Christ deniers, I think my posts have been quite restrained.

Romans 8:16 for your first question and 1 Corinthians 2:15 for your second.

What evidence do you offer that Romans 8:16 and 1 Corinthians 2:15 manifest themselves in you? Can non-believers evaluate the moral worth of Romans 8:16 and 1 Corinthians 2:15 from reading ~ for example ~ your "sinful payback" posts?

You are not being asked about how "restrained" you think you are.

Not at all.

Not at all? So is your posting characterized by "God's Holy Spirit" then?

I don’t answer to you and I find your badgering to be a bore.

I've answered your banter-question about the FMF-is-Duchess64 thing. Why not reciprocate by answering my question about your Christian faith and its evident or not-evident influence on you?

Yes, I am having a good day, fuelled by my impeccable morality, that unlike your own is genuine and not a means to an end.

Like I said, my morality would survive the confirmation that God did not exist, while yours would evaporate like a muddy puddle.

Impeccable according to whose standard? Your own? Everyone is good by their own standards. How would you measure up to God's standards? Let's test your honesty. Have you ever lied, stolen something, used God's name in vain or looked at the opposite sex with lust before? If you are as honest as you say you are you would have to agree that you have done all of those things. According to God's standard that makes you a lying, thieving, blasphemer and adulterer at heart. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. We all need a savior.

Can we see "God's standards" in action in your behaviour and demeanour on this forum?

You can see that I like everyone else falls short of God's standard and therefore cannot place any faith in my own efforts for salvation. Do you know anyone at all that measures up to God's standards? How do you measure up to God's standards?

The way you behave on this forum falls short of God's standard and would be a threat to your salvation if it were not for the fact that you believe in God, is that what you are saying?

All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Do you believe that you are better than everyone else here?

Do you think you have fallen short of "God's standard" on this thread specifically? Does your "God" require you to make your "own efforts" to be better or does your faith make that effort unnecessary?

Saving faith transforms you from the inside out. Efforts devoid of faith are useless.

God’s standard is perfection. No one measures up.

In terms of intellectual integrity and sticking to certain principles when interacting with people, yes ~ I am better than some people here ~ based on my behaviour and their behaviour on this forum ~ and in my interactions with them - you for example, as an RHP poster are less honest than me, and apparently less honest than most other posters here, regardless of their religion or lack of it. As for how people are away from here, I have no idea.

So would your behaviour here automatically be worse than it already is if it were not for your faith?
