If I died and some of my friends died and we all had a similar but different experience at the same time..I saw God, some flew like angels some saw a white light..and we came back to tell this story

This is our story..We are warriors for this country and for our Living God

God Lives

So you killed people...strangers.... because your fellow men ordered you to.
And you think God's ok with that?
You might've seen God but you're going to hell, killer.

Haven't you read the Bible? God advocates killing a lot.

Deuteronomy 17:12
New International Version (NIV)
12 Anyone who shows contempt for the judge or for the priest who stands ministering there to the Lord your God is to be put to death. You must purge the evil from Israel.

There's far more where that came from.

Once again from a book written how many thousands of years ago?

I'm not saying that you're in the wrong direction here; I'm simply making sure you're aware that the premiere sourcebook for Christians has all sorts of sanctioned violence. So your argument won't hold any water with Supra, if he is indeed aware of the book's words beyond what his weekly holyman chooses to lecture about.

I went to a Catholic boarding school (marist brothers) and they caned me alot 😆 No sh*t. Strapping also...wants the old saying "spoil the child" something like that!

I do prefer the new testament, rather than the old testament.

"Spare the rod, spoil the child".

Also, a lot of people prefer the NT, because it is largely more forgiving and tolerant. But not entirely so. Most liberal Christians are taught a cherry-picked version of it, and are hard-pressed to deal with more obscure passages.

Then there's the fact that the NT is pretty much drawn from perhaps a dozen or more gospels that were narrowed down to appeal to the priest class at the time. They don't handle apocrypha or critical analysis well.

I've told this story before but I had an aunt who died of cancer.
All her life she was a devout Christian...went to church every Sunday, prayed thanks before every meal & prayed with her daughter before bed every night. Always the first to give a helping hand, always saw the good in everyone.

On her death bed, her husband, father to their 12 yr old daughter, came forward & said to her a) He had a gambling problem & had lost all their savings & b) He could not look after their daughter & would be leaving.

My aunt died in pain & sadness & a 12 yr old child lost both her parents that day.

This is why I'm angry.
Is this the way God treats his followers?
How much more blind faith did she need to show?
Why bring a child into this world only to have her face sadness & loneliness growing up?
Why the grief, the hardship, the suffering?

Don't you dare tell me it's all part of a master plan that I cannot begin to fathom.

Marist Brothers?
Yeah I went to a Christian Brothers school myself.
Got six straps of the cane for looking at my shoes during assembly.

Now if no one's ever be caned, then imagine being a 13 yr old child & have a full grown adult, with all his might & anger swing a 2inch thick rubber strap across your palms, six times.
Years later, the head master & 4 Christian Brothers would be arrested for systematic child sexual abuse.

Don't for once second think Im not a stone cold killer. I will kill again if I have to..

Look at your name and profile pic and country location..that says everything about who you are..look at mine. I am with God..you are not.

I am a killer and a warrior of God and I will kill more in his name just as Jacob, King David and Samson in the name of Justice. David and Samson Killed Tens of Thousands in Gods name. We have done the same.

You cannot judge me I am Justice Itself.

trolling again you are being reported

Once more: good luck.

Are you unable to handle someone running counter to your paradigm?

Do you get off trolling the internet at night hampering a reasonable discussion which i seek to have?

I don't see your reasonable discussion in this thread. I see you boasting about your killer instinct, your proselytizing, and your choice of footwear. In fact, I see conversation on the last two pages from everyone but you.

Does an ant have a quarrel with a boot Lucien?

I don't know, go ask a boot.
