BUMP for sonship; it's a fair question in light of your peculiarly vain holier-than-thou attitude to the community.

Must continue latter.

I'm sure the Use to Be Disciple will dazzle you with his understanding of why life is so much more meaningful without the love of Christ now.

Latter readers.

You already know. We've talked about many times. There were others who shared my perspectives too, like LemonJello, DeepThought, JS357. It's been discussed a lot.

Pretending to be a Christian when one's Christrian beliefs have been lost does not create "meaning".

The stuff you come out with ~ yes, including the chains and the space aliens and "eating Jesus" etc. ~ may create "meaning" for you, but it doesn't create "meaning" for me.

You know what creates "meaning" for me because I told you.

So what about my question: for all your disagreements with the likes of ThinkOfOne and Rajk999, do you welcome their presence here and welcome the heterogeneity of ideas that they bring?

Not everybody keeps track of everythign that happens here or posts with the regularity and effort that you do.

How about you elaborate, give some positions, and advance the discussion?

Why just buzz around without revealing anything?

You'll just have to wait until I get involved in a discussion about it again. I've been here over ten years. I've discussed it countless times. Your personal sense of entitlement is interesting.

Start a thread about it and see who wants to discuss it with you.

So it is a sense of entitlement to desire that someone states their beliefs in regards to the topic being debated?

That's pretty out there and agaisnt the ethos of a discussion forum.

Perhaps if you politely insisted that you do not want to confront the topic, that'd be one thing, but saying that I am acting entitled by desiring to know your position in a discusion forum...

This sounds like White Privilege.

MY reading comprehension senses that you are STALING to answer the question about whether or not you are a believer in GOD , period, or NOT.

So far, no taking a stand one way or another.

Most of this post, I think was suppose to be in reply to ThinkOfOne. Mistakenly it appeared as a reply to Rajk999.

The saga of dive’s tailspin at RHP

1. Goes on Christian bashing rampage.

2. Exposed as a lying fraud for claiming to be a Christian.

3. Attempts to run away in disgrace by switching identities with his “girlfriend.”

4. Fake girlfriend ploy blows up in his face.

5. Goes on vacation to figure out what to do next.

6. Crosses fingers and claims everything was a practical joke.

Told you before -

I don't have a "holier then thou" atttitude. You come on with a "LESS HOLY THEN THOU!" attitude.

But I don't think either of us is "holy" in any way whatsoever. Do you think you are?

God's truth certainly like Him, is holy. And Jesus warned us not to give that which is holy to the dogs.

“Don't give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces." (Matt. 7:6)


Basically I take that to mean - don't throw important God related teaches or personal precious spiritual experiences to some people cheaply.

Like, if I elaborate about "holiness" in the Bible to you, you're just liable to follow with more and more questions trying to prove that it is all nonsense.

Although the exhortation of Jesus there sounds like an insult, I don't think it really is. I think He is saying that if people have an unclean dog or pig nature towards His salvation, don't allow them the opportunity to be self eaten up by those wild characteristics.

Don't fuel their germs to spread within them more and more.
