@medullah saidYou might be misunderstanding my point; I was wondering if you would be similarly attacked by some of the Christians in this forum they way I was attacked, not that you should expect me to attack you.
Not by me you won't be. And should we disagree in the future one would hope that name calling doesn't enter into it.
I suspect if they could have done the Catholic church of the 1500s would have been telling everyone that newly printed bibiles was "disinformation".
The printing of the bible blew the lid on a lot of the trollop that the authoritarian religious powers w ...[text shortened]... s they were it was only ever going to eat into their hold on people.
I stand by what i have said.
@divegeester
I have had robust attacks, but not name calling. If alleged Christians have to resort to that then I would have to question their spirituality.
Far too many think that “their” version/interpretation of the scriptures is right and can get nasty with it. My position is that no one denomination/cult (subject to your perception) has the absolute truth, though some are closer than others. On my list if not so close are those that believe in eternal torment.
A guy that I got into a debate some years ago that has become a friend used to keep on about keeping an open mind. I try to embrace that, so as not to close myself off of possibility.
@kevin-eleven saidCan you prove that scripturally?
@divegeester
The kingdom of Hell is within you, and you are its willing emissary.
@kevin-eleven saidIf you remind me I’ll send you a saucer of milk fo Christmas.
Perhaps you meant "fare"?
It's a sad state of affairs when the English don't know their own language.
Silly cheap points, you are better than that Kev.
@medullah saidI don’t get the metaphor, unless you are being literal?
@divegeester
You carry on like that and I’ll send you a saucer as well 😉
In which case… I still don’t get it.
@divegeester saidHere's an easier one: I include you in the category of "other people."

@divegeester saidWe've all been waiting for years to smack the other cheek. Coward.
I’ve been called a heretic and other unpleasant names by Christians in here such as kellyjay … for suggesting what you are asserting here.
Let’s see how you fair.
