    Yes, this is the tu quoque. Perhaps you can understand that I really had difficulties deciphering one of your posts and that I actually do think that it is good to inhale and exhale first and then concentrate and write.

    Do not confuse refuting your claims and strategies as something targeted at your person. That leads to one of the fallacies we discussed, the ad hominem. It is our duty to use straightforward language when spreading the Good News of Jesus!

    Titus 1:13
    This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;

    Titus 2:15
    These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.


    Yours in Christ,

    Please read the 1 Timothy Chapter in its entirety. For instance,

    2 Timothy 4:4
    And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

    This means: All things that turn people away from God for entertainment are harmful. They make people lose previous time that should be used in other activities. Life is not about fun and games, it is about getting to Heaven.

    1 Thessalonians 5:17
    Pray without ceasing.

    The word "inhale" was a very useful typo as it made you pause and make a constructed post. There's nothing funny about that. It is obviously possible that your previous method of conversing with ad hominem (in fact, your "fat rump" is also an ad ridiculum, the fallacy that tries to make your opponent look ridiculous) has made you think that all posts contain similar argumentative failures. In fact, to claim that is also a fallacy of tu quoque. But you're learning.

    The trademark means that our elders have certified that our Brethren tell only the Truth™ when they discuss the Bible. In that context, our CV is still better than yours but I am very glad that you acknowledged your mistake about Noah and Jonah. Please understand that it is one of the most well-known stories in the Bible and mixing those up could be an indication of some deficiencies in one's Scriptural education. That is on observation, not an accusation. You can prove this hypothesis wrong.


    Yours in Christ,

    Of course doing an actual conversation that focuses on the issues and not the people saying them is enjoyable. I am actually trying to help you make a valid case, as we True Christians™ enjoy the challenge. You need to consider what your purpose is. If you're simply trying to argue and oppose, you're doing a good job, and people reading this thread who agree with you already are probably thinking that you're making good points.

    But if you wish to persuade your opposition to adopt your point of view, you need to try out the things I mentioned.
    • Actual evidence.
    • Supporting plain opinions with references.
    • Avoiding fallacies to understand that the validity of an issue is independent of its presenter. Even if Billy Graham had discovered the theory of evolution instead of Darwin, that theory would still have to be assessed based on evidence, not by Mr. Graham's character. Even if the Pope told us to read the Bible, it could still be useful advice.
    Incidentally, there's nothing wrong with a fat rump.

    Leviticus 7:3
    And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof; the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards,

    So, to begin I did correct my self about Jonah and Noah but I will do it again I was wrong I got them mixed up, also dont read the wrong context of my mistake it auto-corrected a mistake to inhale yeah funny and all using that against me where you can say that you weren't insulting my mistake but you really were and making your self look clever at the same time (not saying you aren't, as I don't know you personally.) but let me say that in concept video game is just light pixels on a screen that chance when you press a button and according to you it is a sin to do that some how.

    Dear Sinner,

    I never mentioned the word "grammar". As for my reply, it can be found in my previous post, as follows:
    Exercising Godliness is thus not prohibited. But what on Earth are you referring to with "Jonah and his ark"? Jonah was the one who never had an ark but was merely a passenger who was swallowed by a giant fish (Jonah 1:17). Now if there is a game that confuses Jonah with Noah, I'd say it was most ungodly. I'd also say that depicting either one of these characters as a cucumber does not make any gains in credibility. You'll have to give better references than "veggie tales" to convince us.

    Of course not, it is my duty to guide to to True Knowledge™ of the Bible.

    Matthew 22:29
    Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.

    Dear Sinner,

    (color coded for easier comprehension) You're making the ad hominem fallacy, you're insulting the person instead of providing actual evidence. It is a fallacy. in addition, you're once again referring to your own authority as a soldier instead of actual evidence material. it is, once again, the appeal to authority fallacy. Furthermore, your circumstances are also not evidcence. You're just appealing to pity, i.e., making the ad misericordiam fallacy. Your claims are valid or not but that does not depend on your current place of residence.

    I agree. In addition, I'd like the people to actually know the text, for instance, the difference between Noah and Jonah. Do you know the difference now? Or are you one of those referred to in the actual Bible?

    2 Timothy 4:3
    For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

    I do think that you need to inhale, calm down, examine your posts, look for any evidence except assertions and then compose a coherent post. And use the "Preview Post" tool.


    Yours in Christ,

    Elmer
