Quote me exactly but don't put words in my mouth. If Storm thinks that she can post comments about me without repercussions then she is sadly mistaken. I have not taken anything from any of the moderators. If they belittle my intellect (as they and many of you seem to do often) I will assert myself (in good Christian love of course). I like Storm, I just cannot understand why she comes at me the way that she does.

Storm, with all due respect your accusations show the depth of your intellect or should I say lack thereof? ...

This is a left handed insult.

But it is not the same as calling someone an idiot. You read that word in there, but it is not there.

To say "lack thereof" and have it referee to intelligence is calling someone an idiot.

Shak, you are an idiot. That is calling someone an idiot.

Do you have no intelligence? What would you call what I just did? Did I just call you an idiot, or what?

It as far not as nasty as right handed insults.

ONly about 2% of the insult population are left-handed....but all amino acids are....why?

Storm, with all due respect your accusations show the depth of your intellect or should I say lack thereof? I have not abandoned reason at any time. As a follower of Jesus I live by a totally different standard than you do (I can say that again). God is my Heavenly Father so when He says something it is no different than an earthly father giving his child instruction to live by. It does not matter if I am 1,000 years old, relative to God, I am still His child. I'm sure your father told you things and you just accepted it because your father said so. That is why Adam and Eve sinned. God said one thing and they started rationalizing, and reasoning. The next thing you know they had fallen short of the glory of God for the first time in their existence. God wants us to live by "His Word" on matters where His Word is being contradicted. The problem with this world is that everyone has their own standard for what they "think" is right or wrong, that is why it is so messed up. Instead of their being a standard that everyone lives by. I have not abandoned reason as you falsely allege. Storm what if your employer told you that soliciting sex and using drugs while on company time was against the rules. Then someone asked you why was soliciting sex and using drugs on company time in violation of company policy, what would you tell that person? What? I am curious to know Storm, could you speak up. Oh, I see, you would say, because the boss man (or woman) said so. That is no different than me telling someone that homosexuality is a sin because God said so. But see you just have a bone to pick with me so I guess that is why you say little things to antagonize me and single me out right? No? Then why do you bother replying to my posts? The post was not directed to you and it sure didn't have your name anywhere in the post. So then, why else would you waste your valuable time replying? You could have used that time to phone your significant other, watch tv, or do something else constructive.

It is beyond arrogant to come into a public forum, and dictate the allowable response from others. When you post on a public forum like this, you can expect to get critiques. If you don' t want to see your views challenged, then don' t post them at all.

As soon as I was old enough to think for myself, I always asked my parents after the why. I don' t believe just because a so-called wise person said it, nor because a belief is generally held. Not because it is said in ancient books, or because it is said to be of divine origin. I believe nothing just because someone else believes it. I only believe what I myself test and judge to be true.

I have a work ethic, regardless of what my employer might or might not tell me. Even if my employer told me that soliciting sex and using drugs while on company time wasn' t against the rules, then I would still not engage in these activities. Because I say so. What my employer has to say is irrelevant to my morality.

You' ll be the first to know when I have a bone to pick with you. So don' t flatter yourself.

Homophobia: prejudice against, the fear of, aversion to, or discrimination against homosexuality or homosexuals. It can also mean hatred or disapproval of homosexual people, their lifestyles, sexual behaviors or cultures, and is generally used to assert bigotry.

👆 good post.

Were you abused as a child? I don't think I have ever had one normal post from you. You came out the gate swinging at me so to speak. What is your complex? Did you not get any love (let alone enough love) as a child? Man! I have never seen anyone as angry as you in my life over little words (called characters and symbols) on a gray backdrop. You need anger management, a complete psychoanalysis (with extra, tender care and love), some chill pills, and these gospel tracts for real (man!).

http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/0006/0006_01.asp (Somebody loves you)

http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/1018/1018_01.asp (unloved?)

http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/0085/0085_01.asp (A love story)

You are absurd. I'm not angry. I'm just saying it like it is, just like you think you are. You come on this site to "preach the word" and it's just retarded. As I said in the other thread, you're doing neither you or your god any good by spewing bible verse on an internet forum. As for "normal" posts, that's the pot calling the kettle black isn't it? You question my mental health while posting bible verse as though it were fact. I think that's sad. I think you're sad.

actually the situation that created people like JIA is the saddest aspect of this whole situation.

Every Catholic person that I talk to seem to have faith in the "Catholic religion" but not in Jesus Christ. Being Catholic is not the same as being saved (or born again). A person can claim to be Catholic all of their life yet die and still go to Hell.

"Because god said so" is a tag line that can easily be translated into "I have no fu*king clue...I just want it to be that way"

You've got no clue, have you?

You condemn catholics, but they're as ignorant as you are in that when you get backed into a corner,you babble about god.

Because we all like the idea of every nonbeliever going straight to Ye Olde Pit of Fire and Brimstone...because God said so.

Okay...not sure where you're going with that, but I'm sure it's more intelligent than anything Lord Urizen and Alliance could invent.

Your faith...misplaced it may be.

Ah, yes, forgot about that 'religion is a crutch/opiate for the masses' shtick.

I call it insecurity because they have this irrational fear of being wrong about their religion, so they think that if they get more and more people to believe their rhetoric that it will make them right. But, the same thing that happens when they die will be the same thing that happens when I die. Baby Jesus and the Pope have nothing to do with it.
