Young woman, you are so very lost and your thinking is so muddled that I hardly know where to start.

I apologize for mistaking you for a man, but in the picture we received from the security department asking for any possible information about you, you have a very short and manly haircut. Your tattoos and the cigarette package rolled up in the sleve of your t-shirt, along with the boy's haircut and the large wallet attached by a chain to the belt of your blue jeans, led me to jump to the conclusion that you are a man. Clearly, I was mistaken.

I guess the first thing you should understand is that God does not want you to go to Hell. He makes His rules perfectly clear in His book, the Bible. If you follow those rules, you will go to Heaven. There are way too many to list here, but suffice it to say that you seem to be breaking most of them at this time.

Here is the key- We have all sinned, even me. What is important is whether or not you ask God for forgiveness for your sins and come to Jesus with all your heart and soul. He will accept you as you accept Him- all you have to do is ask.

Accept Him not and you will descend to Hell, there to suffer the eternal torments of the Lake of Fire that knows no quenching.

God Bless!

Tl:dr

Young man, you may be happy now with your deathmetal and your big bands or whatever but if you reject Christ's conditional love you will burn forever in the lake of fire when you die and Jesus resurrects you on Judgment day.

Do you really want to risk being killed in an auto accident or an over ambitious zoological breeding program and spending eternity in Hell.

Make the right choice, son.

I apologise I now realise you are of the womanly persuasion. You correct spelling, punctuation and grammar fooled me.

I want to keep "speaking in pictures," because this Seeker seems weak with the effects of the heavy metal withdrawal, etc.

Child, maybe it will help if you think of us like this:

FTFY.

[metalfagandproud]

What does my gender have to do with my grammar? Your security system must have given you a wrong picture because I have long hair, as I have for most of my life. I don't even own blue jeans, nor do I smoke cigarettes. My wallet chain is kept attached to my purse and I don't have any tattoos yet. My past was the reason I needed a fresh start away from "god". Your "god" was the reason I needed a fresh start in the first place. Note: "your god".

[metalfagandproud]

Well he's right… Mr Much, you've earned my respect.

[Mistress Cookie]

I do have to warn you that the Male Elders don't tolerate "sass mouth" here....so after your drug music withdrawal is complete they may not have much tolerance for your hate speech, and your lashing out, and your siding with (the worthless) Mr. Much. ..Just a WORD to the WISE...

Whatever church you belonged to before obviously wasn't a "True Christian™" church, so you shouldn't compare them, or "their" "god", to ours. Ours is the One True God™.

[metalfagandproud]

I have never belonged to a church nor do I want to. I also couldn't possibly care less what the "Male Elders" think of my "sass mouth". Let's not forget the picture you sent to Mr Much; that's a "sass mouth" if I ever saw one. Either way, I'm simply stating my opinion. I am also not suffering from any sort of "withdrawal" from my "drug music". Although I am much happier with it, I can function perfectly well without it. It is certainly not a drug.

Why don't you test that by giving it up forever?

Or is that too hard?

See?

[metalfagandproud]

I don't have to prove anything to you. We each receive only one life, and it is ludicrous for me to sacrifice one of the simpler pleasures within it. I will give up my music when you give up your imaginary god.

[Mistress Cookie]

I think you should stop now, and stop posting things you'll regret and be ashamed of later.

You did the right thing in coming to us for help. What you need now more than anything is rest, and quiet prayer.

This is the only music you need right now:

[metalfagandproud]

I doubt I will be ashamed of anything I have said here. I did not come here for help, but to defend a man who was being bullied. Which, by the way, is not a very "Christian" thing to do. I do not need that music and I do not need prayer.

Where is your theology degree from?

[metalfagandproud]

The degree is unnecessary, however I have read the bible several times over and spent many years studying it. I wouldn't say such a thing if I did not know what I was talking about. I can see that you don't share the same sentiments.

Then you should know what it says about God being the source (and cure) of ALL ailments, diseases, conditions, weaknesses, etc.

Perhaps you'd post the Scripture that says Aspergers is different from all of those somehow?

[metalfagandproud]

"You" referring to the majority of the people I've been arguing with

[Mistress Cookie]

So let me get this straight.

You are not seeking help for your Lifestyle Choice (as I thought), but just barreled into a peaceful True Christian™ community, uninvited, and started swinging wildly...with no respect for our culture, our ways, our beliefs?

You scream at the top of your lungs that our God is "imaginary," yet you offer no proof to back it up?

Well, I say your "Gerard Way" is imaginary...how do you like that?

(See, two can play at that game.)

[metalfagandproud]

First off, I did not come barreling into a "peaceful" site. I got this website as a result of a google search on Gerard Way. I chose to defend a man who was being bullied (and bullying is anything but peaceful). Gerard Way is a living, breathing person and definitely exists. You want me to prove that your god doesn't exist? Well, why don't you try to prove to me that he does
