One is certainly allowed to express their own opinions as long as it corresponds to what is written in The Bible. Anyone who thinks differently like demoncrats are hell bound.

There is only one eternally valid correct view for absolutely everything and that is whatever is written in God's Holy Bible. (Psalm 12:6-7)

Everyone who disagrees with this, even if only for a tiny bit, will go to Hell. No exceptions. No mercy. (Mark 16:16, Revelation 21:8, John 15:6, John 14:6)

When you are "understanding" of those who disagree with God, what the Bible tells you to do instead is to completely ignore them. You should not even be in their company. Even if they are your friends, your family, your parents or your children. (2 Corinthians 6:14–17)

Think even a single word of God's Holy Bible does not apply to you or to your situation? Then you will burn in Hell! (James 2:10)

Democrats don't think. Otherwise they would not have been democrats. They are like empty shells ready to be filled with Satan's filthy fluids.

Your right they don't think

[MitzaLizalor]

I have no idea how a Democrat thinks but would like to point out how many people ignore The Bible when they make decisions. I don't know how furries think either but will go with that example, in the thread.

II Thessalonians 3:6-10 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us. For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you; neither did we eat any man's bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you: Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us. For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.

Many in Christ find Paul's epistles to the Thessalonians reassuring and the passage highlighted (in black) reminds us that gainful employment is required of Christians. Sometimes that means wearing a giant frog costume and holding a sign about the new cake shop. Would God frown on that? You're not claiming to BE a frog and for the entrepreneur to sell cakes a few ads here & there or a promotional offer is acceptable. Although it depends on the promo. Injecting randoms with cake serum would not be appropriate but a frog costume with a sign sounds alright to me.

The problem arises when someone actually wants to be a frog or to channel frog morality, which is a very C.minus affair from what I've seen in moonlit woods, or advocate frog philosophy. No doubt some would go for croaking lessons and ascribe meanings to different types of croak in case they met another "frog" which would be pretty certain at a croaking workshop. Apparel of this type, then, can only be a type of ornament similar to rubies or diamonds for a normal person. The furry just has a different preference but think about it: I would never completely cover myself with rubies. Just one would suffice, even though I quite like rubies. Or none at all. Seeing them in museums is nice too. But for these abandoned fools a quiet frogskin bracelet is not sufficient. They have to go full frog.

James 4:7-10 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

What are you saying exactly?

For a normal person wearing a fur suit it's just a matter of clothing, like a uniform perhaps. The example I used was working for a new cake shop.

I should add that the job involves holding up a sign promoting cakes. This would probably be right outside the shop and constitutes Gainful Employment.

For a furry, on the other hand, it is not like that. My example used a frog suit which when worn by a furry is part of how they'd "identify" even to the extent of wanting to BE a frog. Their frogskins become an adornment, something to draw attention not to the sign but to the person. That contravenes Biblical standards. It's an adornment covering the whole body in a way no normal person would ever cover themselves with rubies, if they liked rubies.

God explains about excessive adornment. Furries disagree. Many people disagree with God. They are on the broad path.

Matthew 7:13-14 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Of course it’s wrong to have sex with animals.

Leviticus 18:23 Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion

Don’t be confused.

Instead of spamming the thread with consecutive posts, why don't you just make one post with your lies?

[Dynamic]

I'm sorry, but I'm new here, and this is just, is this all a sick joke or something?
Blacks, Homosexuals, Furries all banned? And I'm sure there's plenty more, but why everyone else? I am a raised christian, and happy to be one, but I don't go to church every Sunday, or during any event where any devoted christian would be. But... just, what?
I believe if all these things that a person can and will do are banned, then this is more of a strict forums than anyone would expect.
This isn't okay. Please stop.

Are you saying reading, believing, and following the Holy Bible with regard to living in righteousness isn't okay?

That's just silly! To call yourself a Christian and have no regard for the Faith of Christ is like calling yourself a vegetarian as you sink your teeth into a bacon cheeseburger. Names mean something dear. Words count. Ideas have power.

[Dynamic]

Well, I have only a couple words for that. You are stuck in time. To believe that blacks and homosexuals are purely just corrupt and terrible beliefs and should be considered to be nothing is you not looking from your time of racism and not knowing the rights of people. Yes, the Bible may state that some of these are wrong, but then, the Bible evolves over time. Meaning nowadays, being gay and/or black is okay. Saying that it's wrong, as said before, is you stuck in time, unfortunate to say.

That's just the kind of nonsense one might expect from someone who has never actually read the Holy Bible, the only tangible resource from which one can know the True Faith™. You imply the Creator of the Universe, the King of Kings, the Alpha and the Omega is... irrelevant today. That's blasphemous, dear, and is essentially calling Christ Jesus a Big, Fat, Liar (John 1:1-5; Hebrews 13:8). I'd like to see you explain that to Him come Judgement Day!

No, it doesn't. The lies people tell about what it says change to reflect contemporary conditions and attitudes.

Case in point.

No, it's you not accepting what the Bible says (and has always said and will always say).


So stop claiming to be a Christian.

[Dynamic]

You know, it's kind of absurd. How do you know exactly what the Lord would say? I AM a born-blood christian. But I have never read the bible, only the beginnings. As the Bible is large in pages, which, is fine, but filled with "thy" and other words like that is just confusing for me. But I wouldn't go as far to say that any other person who says: "y'know, this isn't quite right..." to go totally obliterate them and saying they aren't true christian. You don't know me, so you can't prove that I'm christian or not. My mother and father are born christians as well, but neither of them cite the Bible as their primary source. The Bible is not going to be your "get out of jail free" card. Apply some basic common sense in and understanding rights of others and you're basically anyone in the world besides people who have other religions. Christianity is not supposed to be a competition to see which religion is best. It's supposed to unite people. And to the games that have been "banned" here? TF2, Overwatch, anything like that? Those are all false. Played plenty by myself, besides Overwatch, to tell you that yes, "I LOVE THIS DOCTOR!" from the Heavy in that game, that is not a homosexual remark. It's as if you'd love any cup in your house that you drink from. But I know one thing, you're going to tell me "Oh, that's full of bull!" Well, uh, to you, I guess. But anyone else here, just, understand this is a bit too much for normal, god-loving people.

You are not a Christian, neither are your parents. You just happen to have an imaginary friend that flows with your "common sense" and never contradicts it. It is really easy to have a friend like that. And then, you also can support your own views with God's authority. Also easy when you made up your God.
"God supports gay marriage, so you can be gay and Christian". No, you cannot. That God you are thinking of is a made up construction, made by your brain to confort you and bring you hope and certainty. I would rather be an atheist than a deluded fluffy bunny Christian who doesn't even read the Bible. At least atheist do not lie to themselves, as you and your parents do.


Lucky for me, I have understood that the only God is the God of the Bible, and He has rules. Some of them are even ridiculous, but I am not the one to contradict what He wants.


Stop calling yourself a Christian if you are not willing to follow His rules.
