Re: Is Your Child a Godless Goth?

Dear Friend,



Yes, or God put them there to test our literal belief to Scripture despite all evidence and reason to the contrary! Don't worry God, we're heads-up on this one! Evidence and Reason 0 points, Scripture 1,000,000 points.

2+2=5 if the Bible tells you so? So, numbers can lie, then? Jesus Christ just face-palmed at this blatant display of blind ignorance.

The Bible is FULL of metaphor. Jesus himself taught with metaphors (called parables in Scripture). Jesus was also a Jewish Rabbi and Jews have been open-minded and have questioned their faith rather openly for thousands of years, as evidence in the Scripture itself... and they are God's chosen nation, too. Why would you ignore reason if God gave it to you to use? If he didn't intend for you to use logic, when why give it to you? If God predestines things (as implied by Scripture: Acts 13:48, Ephesians 1:7-8, 2 Thess. 2:13-14, and 2 Tim. 1:9), then do we really have free will?

Re: Is Your Child a Godless Goth?

Not true. Is it inconceivable to you for anyone to abstain form any form of worship? Well, I've noticed that you have a broad definition of the word "Worship". They way it is supposed to be defined is "To bend the knee"... literally. I bend the knee to no being, so I do not worship anything. The Universe is not simply black and white... there are numerous shades of grey in between. Humans have free will do they not? The theory that God predestines everything contradicts the concept of Freewill, so I do not presume that you believe in predestination.

Yes, from the way it is to be defined, I do bend onto my knees for the Greater Being that is God Almighty. If you choose not to worship Him, then that's of your own Free Will - which you do have! You have the choice to be saved or not and you can still choose so by accepting the Lord, Jesus Christ, into your life as your savior!

However, I must say now that the Tea Party isn't going to get much further. they are losing ground and will continue to do so because of the Progressive Tea Party that has recently sprung up. You guys have competition now... and thus far it looks like we have the provable facts while all you have is unquantifiable faith and little else. We aren't here to "de-convert" you or to fight with you. We are here to open your eyes and to see the complexity that you conveniently ignore. If God is indeed real, he'd be appalled at the brazen ignorance of his more conservative followers... If we are not to question things and are to believe blindly, then what's the point of having freewill and the ability to reason? It seems counter-productive and illogical on God's part if blind faith and ignorance of the underlying workings of the vast Universe he made is what he desires and rewards despite our ability and desire to do otherwise...

Furthermore, Why didn't he just stop the evil from coming to fruition if he didn't like it? Does he WANT to send people to hell? That, too, seems counter-productive as well as asinine. Is he not God?

Because Heaven is not a place for everyone. It is only for those who are truly saved - a place for the righteous - after recognizing the Lord Jesus Christ and accepting Him into their heart. God doesn't WANT to send people to Hell, but they force Him to by committing sin and not letting Jesus forgive those sins.

Of course God doesn't like it, but He is still giving you a choice because that's how much He loves you. He wants you to see the Truth™ and be saved, but He wants you to open your eyes to it first and accept Jesus.

Don't you get it?

Jesus is GOD.

GOD is all powerful.

If GOD says 2+2=5, it does now. That is all.

Re: Is Your Child a Godless Goth?

Dear Friend,

Never read a Bible, have we?

Isaiah 45:7:

Ah, so God is Evil then because he knowingly created it... Even more-so for his apathy towards it. I cannot follow your God. No real God is that heartless and asinine. Standby for strict enforcement of the Separation of Church and State. Progressive Tea Party will prevail.

My girlfriend's back has Isaiah 46:4 tattooed on it... Says God will ALWAYS be there for people. Kinda contradictory of your own Bible Verse there. She's Goth, too, ya know....

Another thing: I'm effeminate (now Transgendered because of it), but the Bible condemns effeminacy. However, I was born this way, so God made me this way. therefore, God predestined me for hell without even giving me a reasonable chance. I now see that the God of Landover Baptist Church and Westboro Baptist Church (obviously the Same God) is an asshole. :3 You have no love at all, for your God has no love. No compassion... therefore you are not of the Christ (HA! I can say it/type it and NOT be afraid... some Satanist I am).

Your friend, Lorelei

Of course God created evil, if he hadn't of, it wouldn't exist. I would say that God is well above what our feeble minds consider good and evil though.

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

Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?

Exodus 4:11 And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD?

My girlfriend's back has Isaiah 46:4 tattooed on it... Says God will ALWAYS be there for people. Kinda contradictory of your own Bible Verse there. She's Goth, too, ya know....

So she cherry picked a verse. Perhaps you should read all of Isaiah 46 In fact read the entire Bible while your at it. It's much easier to understand something once you've actually read it.

As for the tattoo, well that's a sin
Leviticus 19:28 Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.

Another thing: I'm effeminate (now Transgendered because of it), but the Bible condemns effeminacy. However, I was born this way, so God made me this way. therefore, God predestined me for hell without even giving me a reasonable chance.

You know that you could give it up, but no, you'd rather blame God and wallow in your filth.

Romans 8:5-8 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

You could change if you really were sorry for your sins and had enough faith in Jesus.

I now see that the God of Landover Baptist Church and Westboro Baptist Church (obviously the Same God) is an asshole.

You do realize that Westboro is a liebral church right? They're as big of cherry pickers as you are. Sure they hate fags, but Fred used to be a civil rights lawyer, he allows his girls to wear pants, and to preach. That would NEVER happen at Landover Baptist. Oh he also ran as a Democrat 4 times and is a friend of Al Gore.

So please stop using Westboro as a swear, unless you're looking in a mirror.

:3 You have no love at all, for your God has no love. No compassion... therefore you are not of the Christ (HA! I can say it/type it and NOT be afraid... some Satanist I am).

Your friend, Lorelei

Oh no, the 29th teenager today to tell me I wasn't a Christian because I'm a big meanie Of course you have scripture to back up your position? Do a search on it first though, no use wasting your time with stuff we've beaten into the ground 100 times before.

Re: Is Your Child a Godless Goth?

Dear Friend,

Isaiah 46:4 promises the chosen people God will deliver them. See 46:3 for context. You are clearly not chosen.

And please stop droning on about "free will" as though it were a paradox that rocks our world. There is no Scriptural support for any such thing. We don't believe in it and don't need to make any accommodations to preserve it.

God, save me from these rubes!

Yours in Him,

Re: Is Your Child A Goth?

My goodness Brother Temperance, what are we to do with this poor sinner if she goes arround beliving everything she reads in a book? Does she not know the writter can make anything they want up in a book? That is why we Christians stick to The Bible.

which is a book. you are the most hypocritical people i have ever seen. you say not to be hateful, and all I see is hate speech. what makes you better than us?

[Nobar King]

Re: Is Your Child A Goth?

which is a book.

The Holy Bible (KJV) is not just any book, it is the literal word of God as told by Him to King James.

dude, you're a douche. quit being a self righteous bitch.

Welcome friend! Tell me about your relationship with God and how He has made your life full of joy.

We are not hateful, far from it. In fact, I am a bit miffed you would say such a thing. All we do is follow the Word of God®, is that so bad? Now, if you think a True Christian™ member of Landover is being hateful and not following the Bible, please let us know, we will deal with them harshly. However, please keep in mind, false accusations are dealt with just as harshly. So I strongly suggest you read and know the Bible BEFORE you go slinging mud lest it hits you in your face. See friend, I have seen people like you come here all the time. They read on post, take it totally out of context, have spent their entire lives in a fluffy bunny feel good false Christian environment. But we do not want that for you. We want you to follow His True Message©. We want you to really have a chance to go to Heaven. Don't you?

[Alphonse Alban]

Re: Is Your Child a Godless Goth?

My children are good Christians. It is still good to recognize these symptoms, so you can use corrective beating to remove the taint of goth if needed.

I can't imagine the shame of parents, who has a goth child, must feel.

That is no way for a lady to speak! Shame on you. Your husband will be quite upset when he finds out!

Seeing as how all you do is whine and complain I'm not surprised that Brother James thought you were a woman. You're not much of a lady, however.

[shadowraith95]

Re: Is Your Child a Godless Goth?

how exactly am i whining and complaining? i simply stated my opinion. this derogatory speech, however much you believe they deserve it, will not help bring them to god. I am a christian and proud, but i am often labeled as "gothic" or "emo". when i obtain one, i will upload a picture of myself to show that i am not fat, don't wear make up, and don't wear all black. i will admit i went overboard in my previous statement, but this negativity and hate sent me over the edge. oh, and by the way, you guys spelled "eternal" wrong.
