Now do you see what you Looney Christians have done? This poor boy(?) could very well have gone on to be an intelligent person, meaningfully contributing to society the rest of his life. Now he's going to be a Christian. [sarcasm] Good job. [/sarcasm]

Re: I'm Converting!

Mate i see where your coming from but trust me i'm not going to start hating other people because they are different and the people on this site didn't convert me in anyway. i still believe that there are thing the bible can't or doesn't explain and im ok with that. i still believe in free will, gay marriage, science and evolution. what i believe is that god made earth and left us to do whatever we want with it, when he saw us getting out of control he sent his son to tidy the place up and since then he has been happy with it. God is not a higher being but an idea in everyone who believes in him and with no one the praise him then there would be no God. i don't fear God but mearly Respect him.

Re: I'm Converting!

That makes no sense. How did an idea create the Earth, when there were no people to believe in this idea, and thus give it existence? How does an idea have a son? How can an idea be happy with something? Based on your description of your beliefs, you aren't a Christian. Sorry, mate.

So you admit that it's a false conversion? You're just converting for the benefits of Christianity, but you refuse to admit that you're a filthy sinner worthy of death? See I feel that God disagrees, but what does He know You expect that you can remain friends with all of your acquaintances that refuse to accept Jesus, and God will somehow overlook that and welcome you into the Fold anyways? Can you back that up with Scripture at all? Remember, you must turn from your wicked ways when you accept Him!

and the people on this site didn't convert me in anyway.

Well this is strike two for you. It wasn't those damned Catholics was it? Because you might as well remain in your sinful lifestyle and not even bother trying to "convert", since you'll end up in the same place anyways.

i still believe that there are thing the bible can't or doesn't explain and im ok with that.

Goodness, this post is going about as far from where I thought it was going as it could! You started out by saying that you're turning your life over to God, and now you're calling Him a liar? He wrote down everything that we need to know in 1611. I defy you to find something necessary to Salvation and Eternal Life that isn't in the Bible. I'll be waiting.

i still believe in free will, gay marriage, science and evolution.

*Sigh*. There was no conversion at all, was there. This was all a ruse to get our hopes up, to ready the fatted calf to welcome a new brother into the Fold, and now you unleash this bombshell on us. You're going to take the word of secular science over the Word of the Omniscient God (that means "All-knowing God")?

what i believe is that god made earth and left us to do whatever we want with it, when he saw us getting out of control he sent his son to tidy the place up and since then he has been happy with it.

So Jesus is God's maid Can you back this up with any Scripture at all? See at this rate, I'm starting to think you *have* converted to Catholocism after all. You can make things up, as long as you use the word "God" in there someplace. You're about a half-step above scientologists, except at least you admit that there *IS* a Yahweh that will damn you forever. You're right, God is just happy with all the prancing homos running around raping our children. Just thrilled. (end sarcasm).

God is not a higher being but an idea in everyone who believes in him and with no one the praise him then there would be no God. i don't fear God but mearly Respect him.

Goodness, how can this be true? If you don't fear someone, how can you respect them? This directly contradicts the whole premise of Salvation and Christian Child Rearing. I am going to log this thread for an example to point new-comers to when they ask how people call themselves "Christians" for example, but make up whatever nonsense they want to to make themselves feel better.

Hallelujah! Shout PRAISE!

Oh Lord, I beseech Thee: Lead this young fellow in the paths of righteousness! Keep his feet from straying onto the thorns of sexual temptation. Protect his toes from the stumbling-blocks of drug addiction and the sharp stones of gluttony, sloth, and Nintendo. And Lord, guard him well against the thumbtacks of simile.

Let this fella Bill Pardy DEPART from his unbelieving ways!

Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the LORD. Isaiah 52:11

And may we now put away from us animosity, argument, anger, and all alliterative angst. AMEN! Let us welcome Bill Pardy, and hope that he keeps the Lord's way and walks every more closely with Jesus

Re: I'm Converting!

You know what i don't need other people to tell me that what im believing is the wrong kind of faith, i've got free will and i'm using it if people on this site can't appreciate that then i don't really care. The universe is an idea we are all idea's there is no way to prove the universe exsists, thats what i'm saying and there is no way to prove God exsist therefore God is an idea and the universe is the idea of God. I'm not a catholic. Don't all people convert to make themselves feel better, they want to feel the love of God and don't want to go to Hell. I respect my brothers and my dad but i don't fear them in any way because i know they love me, God is the father and do not fear him.

Then you're still not a Christian, you're a Nihilist.

Nihilism: the delusion that things (or everything, including the self) do not exist; a sense that everything is unreal

Now, look, I don't care what you believe, I believe a few strange things myself, but don't go calling yourself something you're not. Nothing you've said coincides with the beliefs of Christianity of any kind (Catholic, Baptist, etc). Quit calling yourself a Christian, because you're obviously not.

God is the father and do not fear him.

Wrong you Unsaved moron!! If you had any shred of sanity you would know that fearing the Lord is precisely what you are supposed to do!!!

Proverbs 1:7 (King James Version)

"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction."

If something is an idea, it isn't real. It doesn't exist anywhere but in someone's head. You said the universe is an idea; therefore it isn't real. God is an idea; therefore God isn't real. Everything is an idea; therefore nothing is real. That makes you a Nihilist. And even if you don't like being called a Nihilist, you certainly can't call yourself a Christian. Christians believe in the Bible, which says that God is real (and NOT an idea). The beliefs that God is real and that Jesus is a divine being (who is also real and NOT an idea) are the very core of Christianity; if you don't believe in those things, you aren't a Christian. Plain and simple.

Like I said, believe whatever you want, but don't claim to be something you aren't.

EDIT: Someone please talk some sense into this boy(?)! I'd love to sit here and try to make him(?) understand, but I have some things which need doing.

Re: I'm Converting!

Ideas do exsist even if its in someones head they still exsist.

THEY'RE NOT REAL. They have no physical form. The don't even have a spiritual/astral/ectoplasmic form!

Re: I'm Converting!

I Believe in Jesus and God therefore i'm Christian. Can someone show me in the Bible where it says you have to read the Bible to be a Christian. it doesn't matter how i see God and Jesus.

[Bill Tardy]

Re: I'm Converting!

To that logic air's not real, have you ever seen God or Jesus. Is there anyproof that the Bilbe says the truth? no therefore they are an idea like the universe no ones been to the ends of the universe we only have what we believe to be the truth.
