I had a big book on Norse Mythology i read often. I lost it somwhere and havent been able to find it. i like the story of how Odin turned Loki into a tree and said that he will stay a tree until one of them shed a tear for him. naturally noone would shed a tear for Loki, so over the years of being inprisoned in a tree he learned how to manipulate it. as Heimdall passed by one day Loki managed to shake a leaf free and it went down and struck Heimdall in the eye causing his eye to water. and Loki was free from his prison.
i know i got off topic there but i wanted to share that w/ u all. lol
Marcu has read all the posts in this thread! I am not what you all feel a christian is! I am not mean, judging others beliefs, or any of that! I certainly do not wish any harsh words to be said either way, as i grew up hearing many an arguement over the topic of God and Religion! I am a human being that was grossed out at the things that i was reading and decided to post my feelings! I am fully aware that their are MANY people here that do not believe in God or feel they have no personal use for Him! I am a normal person that does NOT argue about God, as i am not the person who saves anyway. I will one day be judged by the judger and choose to not argue with you but rather remember to pray for the un-saved each day...which i am not to faithful at doing, sorry!

I should explain as to why i don't argue with you! It is my assumtion that all of you have heard of Jesus, because you are able to rebuke it so well! Anyhoo, therefore you have heard the truth and are now responsible to make your own choices! I would discuss and tell someone who has NOT heard of Jesus, because that is my duty to do as a christian! Unless you have a question for me regarding salvation, Jesus, Christ etc...I will not argue with those who have already heard the truth! God saves those people in his own way! God Bles you all! 🙂

So you don't really care for questions of faith? Just...preach the dogma to everyone?

To make such a judgment you would have to know what the truth is. I believe you do not know what the truth is. This idea of this "truth" you are talking about, is a lie, used to brainwash and control people.
The posts that are considered terrible are more reactionary. People resent being told that their basic nature is evil. The true nature of a person is neither good or evil, it is enlightenment.
