Re: Other Planets?

I think it's appropriate to quote the great Sir Thomas Aquinas, one of the greatest Baptist minds to ever grace this vale of tears:

If I were to suggest that between the Earth and Sun there is a golden calf revolving about the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided I were careful to add that the teapot is too small to be revealed except by the Devil's telescopes. But if I were to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is an intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, I should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense. If, however, the existence of such a teapot were affirmed in books, taught as the truth by every ignorant heathen, and instilled into the minds of children at school, hesitation to believe in its existence would become a mark of eccentricity and entitle the doubter to the attentions of the psychiatrist in an enlightened age or of the Inquisitor in an earlier time.

Re: Other Planets?

You people don't modify your understanding of the scriptures to fit everyday life... you change your understanding of everyday life to fit an example of scripture.

Yes. God gave us a rulebook for life, and we follow it.

I said that puppies practice witchcraft, then of course I would then claim the Bible is against puppies.

The Bible is against puppies:

As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly.
Proverbs 26:11

Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. Matthew 15:27

Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. Revelation 22:15-16 (Jesus discussing who shall enter into His eternal Kingdom)

If I said planets are Satanic, then of course I would say that since the scriptures are anti-Satanic, the scriptures must be anti-planets.

Nonsense. God created the planets and all of the other stars, so they are not Satanic. See Genesis 1:14-18.

If I say Goths are evil, and I then proceed to say the Bible is against evil, then I would conclude that the Bible is anti-Goth.

We are not against things because they are evil. After all, God created evil:

I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. Isaiah 45:7

We are against Goths because you dress like demons, paint your faces, engage in Satanic orgies and black magic, and, in general, mock all that is good and decent around you.

"The very powerful and the very stupid share one thing on common: They do not change their views to fit the facts... they change the facts to fit their views." (I can't remember who said it).

You can't remember, yet you're still quoting? That would put you solidly in the "very stupid" camp.

In my prayers, God enlightened me to the fact that I should depart from this forum. It's done nothing good for me, and I see it doing no good for any one else. I believe God wished to show me an example of something. "ye shall know them by their fruits."

We have said exactly the same prayer. Praise God!

Re: Other Planets?

God created other planets because he is allmighty. He dosn't need a reason to plant rocks in open space.

Re: Other Planets?

Friend,
Do you think all the 'stars' are really planets?

You seem sadly mistaken, stars are NOT planets. They are balls of exploding gas, don't believe me? go touch one and see what happens.
You seem to accept that the sun is not a planet, yet stars are.
If you want the real truth then try looking up for once, maby even ask somebody who knows what they are talking about rather than jumping to conclusions.

Re: Other Planets?

And that's 5 star advice, telling them to go touch a star as a first step..... why not advise them to do something that's actually possible? Like pick up a telescope?

Well sure, but nobody on here believes in science enough to do such an extraordinary feat.
Plus, if it was actually possible for Jesus to walk on water then we must be able to walk in an unoccupied and gravity less area with ease!

Do you have scripture to support your claims?

The only people who know what they're talking about are followers of the Holy Bible, KJV1611. Duh.

Re:12:3: And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
Re:12:4: And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
Re:12:5: And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

Now it strikes me Ms Arrugila (Is that a real name or did you make it up?) that the aforementioned dragon would have great difficulty getting hold of one third of the stars if they were "exploding gas." So I think your silly theory is at an end.

Now retards, cripples and other malformed creature post here and, like Godless lesser races, have the excuse that they are cursed by God, but, Ms Arrugila (Is that a real name or did you make it up? It sounds like the cry one might expect from an injured pirate...) as a woman you have the unrivalled advantage of being able to ask your husband or father about these complex matters before coming here and making a fool of yourself.

Now tell me, what interests you most about washing up liquids and ironing clothes?

Re: Other Planets?

I have already explained this to old man hatchet, i am not a female and i did not choose this name.
My user name was changed against my will by an forum administrator, i have no idea why he/she chose to make people believe me to be a female.
When it comes to the dragon theory i must say that i am not a christian and therefore cannot possibly understand the message you are imposing, believe what you wish and i will not force my beliefs upon you.

Coming here for answers was probably the best thing that has ever happened to you. I hope you pay attention and learn something for once.

Re: Other Planets?

What you don't get, SIR, is that our beliefs are not mere opinions of what the truth may or may not be, as are yours. Our beliefs ARE the truth, as given to us by GOD Himself in the Holy Bible.

[Butt Pirate]

Re: Other Planets?

You see, Nobar King has the right idea.
YES i did come here to learn something about the christian religion, and if you are so sure that your beliefs are correct, then by all means go ahead and believe them, I am not currently convinced by you but if you truly want to teach me then ill give you a suggestion, don't put HUGE bible quotes in BOLD lettering because i will glance over it and read only what you said in your own words.

[Bob4God]

Re: Other Planets?

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. -John 14:6

How else can you learn about the Christian religion (Christian = founded on CHRIST) if you don't read the Bible?

I would suggest that if you have any specific questions that you post them on the forums, and stop wandering from thread to thread stirring up trouble. All of us at Landover Baptist are Godly, patient and loving people who will be more than happy to take time to personally minister to you and answer whatever foolish, secular questions you might have, if that's what it takes to get you to the foot of the cross.

And that is the trouble isn't Miss? You are taking the presentation over the substance. You must look beyond that. (If you can!) Biblical verses, being the Very Word of The Lord of Hosts, are to be given their due significance. I cannot address you in stentorian tones, but I can format mere script to show the Glory that is the Lord Almighty.

Read the Bible! Read what is set before you! Read to save your soul!!!

I bet you've never turned down a $100 dollar bill because there was something about the design that you did not like! You money grubbing heathen! The love of money is the root of all evil!

Are you ready yet to accept Baby Jesus?

So when was the last time you 'touched' a star, little girl? Balls of exploding gas? Hilarious! Did you just think that one up this morning, or do you have some sort of trained-retard feeding you all these so-called 'facts'??

Looks like someone's not been taking her meds.
