Re: what is an oxymormon?

I'm baffled because I really don't see how my life which for the most part will be short and uneventful, will have any significance to God.

This is because God's love is way beyond anything you can comprehend. Which is why He doesn't want you to burn in the lake of fire He has prepared for you if you do not do as He commands.

Your short and uninspiring life is but a drop in the ocean to God's Time. If you are counted among the saved, you'll have an eternity to worship the LORD and sing His praises without ceasing! Hallelujah!

That's because you don't allow it to have any significance to God.

Re: what is an oxymormon?

Ok.

put simply:

I don't object to the concept of a deity, but I'm baffled by the notion of one that takes attendance.

Why would this baffle you?

The LORD knows everything, when you're sleeping, when you're awake, your inner most thoughts:

Lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.
Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
Psalm 139:1-3

He doesn't "take attendance," He notices when we are paying attention to Him and when we are not.

Here is Truth® for those who have ears to hear.

And yet here we are with all the evidence that such a thing is true. There is no other evidence for God but the words of the Bible and the insight it gives you into His creation and manifestations of his will.

All the cherry pickers and scripture twisters in the world can't get away from that simple fact that is the underpinning of how much true faith I have in God. You need to take stock of this and love the Bible for revealing that to us and act on your instincts. Because your cherry picking friend is just trying to convert you into thinking like him. You must read the Bible and see if God exists for yourself. It will change your life, friend.

Every single True Christian™ has independently made this unique personal journey and come to the same conclusion and come here of their own free will. Praise Jesus.

Re: what is an oxymormon?

Yes I'm sure Nazis had all those Bible burning ceremonies because they were catholic.

Atheists believe there is no God. Agnostics believe that there is a possibility God exists. As for gutless, maybe in the fact that I don't have burden of proof, but in fact seeing as it makes me an enemy to both sides could be seen as a more risky life attitude.

Catholics hate the Bible - it contradicts all their dogma.

God either exists or He does not. There is no middle ground. No wonder you are so confused.

You're either totally sure God exists based on the mountain of evidence we have or you are not. We present you with the evidence and you are still not sure? Perhaps you are just pre-chosen to burn and your brain doesn't work. It's impossible to tell by looking and only God knows so you may as well keep on trying but I wonder at why you think he "might" exist. The evidence is overwhelming!

God is not a wishy washy idea you make up in your head to justify yourself when you can't think of a cogent argument to justify your prejudices or make yourself feel less scared of dying. God is real and is described in the Bible. If you don't accept the Bible or you reject bits you don't like, then what evidence is there for God?

It's all or nothing, friend. Burn or do not burn.

Re: what is an oxymormon?

You're quite correct.

A nazi is a Catholic.

An agnostic is just a gutless atheist.

You fail again at interpreting the written word. 3 sentences and you read subtext that isn't there. How on earth did you make it through the bible?

Re: what is an oxymormon?

I take responsibility for all my mistakes. I don't have the luxury of blaming God or Satan. Personal Responsibility is a big thing for atheists and agnostics.

So you admit to being an atheist now? And I'm supposed to believe you about the 88?

Take your Nazi heathenism elswhere.

Why can't you take responsibility for your inability to spell moron?

Ever met a libratard that could take responsibility for any of their mistakes? The whole lot are nothing but morons.

Re: what is an oxymormon?

Firstly I'm not an atheist, secondly I never said I didn't make a mistake.
