Hey everyone...

I had to sign up to ask if this site is actually real?

I have been fooled by stumble upon before, the first time I saw The Onion I thought it was a real news website:/

Re: Hey

Dear friend:

This site is every bit as real as the love of Christ and the fires of hell.

In Christ,

Isaac

Re: Hey

Is this site "Real"? Are you one of those existentialist homersexual philosophers? You're obviously reading it, how could it not be real?

Re: Hey

Is this part of your class assignment, Robert?

Lol....I cant tell you how much that made me laugh

All i asked was a nice question, I could of phrased it in a very different way, such as you guys must be joking right?

My question was whether this site is real or a piss take, but no, however bad it may be, stereotypes are right again, and this site is real....

Well hopefully one day you guys will learn not to judge the world as harshly as you do. I mean I might be wrong, maybe the rapture is coming, but I believe if there is a God(s), s/he will look more kindly on someone who led a good life and didnt judge others to Hell, when im sure its not your place to

Have a good day!

Why do you come on our boards to mock us and spread your hate?!

Re: Hey

Theistic

Theistic existentialism is, for the most part, Christian in its outlook, because the way traced by Kierkegaard, Gabriel Marcel, Karl Barth, Paul Tillich and others is even nowadays quite strong. But there have been existentialists of other theological persuasions, like Islam (see Transcendent theosophy) and Judaism. Unlike atheistic existentialists, they posit the existence of God, and that God is the source of our being. It is generally held that God has designed the world in such a way that we must define our own lives, and each individual is held accountable for his own self-definition.


Just thought id point out your ignorance before I left

Re: Hey

I asked a question, you spread the hate

Nothing I said at all was hate-fall, I could of replied in your kind and called you homosexual(not homersexual, that would be finding Homer's sexual) and throw in a couple of other words you clearly don't know the meaning to, but I didn't, i took the high road

Maybe you should think about how you treat other people!

PS As i mentioned in my first post, i was brought here by Stumble Upon. and just asked a question

Re: Hey

You're just an atheist trying to undermine our beliefs. I have no time to read whatever ridiculous definitions you copied off wikipedia. It is irrelevant. All that matters is that you accept Jesus in your heart! If you are really leaving, then I advice you read the Bible every day!

Re: Hey

Ah jumping to conclusions again my friend, im not an Athiest, im Agnostic, and yes of course your right that was off Wikipedia, but it was just proof that you knew nothing about your flippant remark about existentialism.

Maybe you should read the bible my friend! Although I may not believe in God, i think the bible sets out good models for you to lead your life by, and i try to follow these myself, but from the way you spoke to me after i asked a reasonable question myself, maybe you are forgetting some of these morals and lessons.

Also I never undermimed your religion....I think religion is a good thing for the world, and I am fully aware I may be wrong! I just asked if the site was real.

I question why you are so quick to judge.....

Rather insulting question. What do you seriously expect our reply would be; that this is nothing more than a bunch of atheists with no life pushing out thousands of posts as part of some mind control experiment from the CIA or something equally stupid? No, this forum is quite real.

I question why you are so quick to judge.....

Jesus command us to judge.

John 7:24
Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

You did mention you read The Bible, didn't you?

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

Re: Hey

But what you did was to show what Wiki says. Clearly if you had to go to Wiki, you too must be ignorant in the sphere in question.

On top of that, the responses to which you replied did not claim to be a definition of existentialist Christianity, but asked a question about philosophers; so by giving that definition you did, you merely showed that it was you who jumped to a conclusion and did a cut and paste job.

Sir, I accuse you of ungodly cant and hypocrisy!

Re: Hey

Well now, thats more like it, some smart people have replied.

Firstly, yes I have read the bible, no I did not memorise it, as I said before, it sets out good morals, but could a book written 2000 years ago hold any real reference today? And to reply to you Bobby:

St. Matthew7
Judging Others
1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. Mk. 4.24
3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
6 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.
Of course this is a well known quote, but i still think it fits

And Ezekiel, im sorry but unfortunatly, however hard I try, I cannot remember every little thing about Philosophy, and every thing I learn, I learn myself through research, that is why I use wikipedia, to learn

And actually, the specific point I was referencing was that my friend made a comment about existentialist homersexual philosophers, I was just pointing out you dont need to be an athiest to be an existentialist

Re: Hey

Why are you being so rude to me? Just because I believe in God is no reason to call me stupid!

5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Way to miss the whole point Jesus was making, sir. He's saying you have to make sure you are living right, and THEN you can go around judging everybody righteously. And I happen to follow the Bible to the letter.

And actually, the specific point I was referencing was that my friend made a comment about existentialist homersexual philosophers, I was just pointing out you dont need to be an athiest to be an existentialist

Never refer to me as your friend again. I am not yoked to unbelievers!
