Re: Indeed.

If you resent the laws of our lord then their is no place for you in his Heaven. They are not being forced to accept anything, they have full choice. We merely warn you and try to dissuade you from making these choices because God tells us to love everyone. What better way is there to love than helping someone get away from eternal damnation and into the graces of Jesus's love?

Re: Indeed.

I can see that this is going to be difficult for you.

Why is that so?

Re: Indeed.

No one has 'suggested' anything. The bible has very kindly laid out that they WILL be eternally damned if they do not repent their ways and accept Jesus Christ as their Saviour.

I see. I can understand that viewpoint. Yet why must people be forced to accept something which they resent?

Please do not take my posts as offensive. I simply want to learn more about you. That's how I roll.

suggesting that they should be "eternally damned"

No one has 'suggested' anything. The bible has very kindly laid out that they WILL be eternally damned if they do not repent their ways and accept Jesus Christ as their Saviour.

Wouldn't your time be better spent minding your own business?

Re: Indeed.

It's called the Bible (KJV1611), friend. Read it all will be clear to you. As for the "minding your own business" remark, that is exactly what we were doing before you showed up here to show us how smart you aren't.

Where does my intelligence come in anywhere? I thought that this was more opinions and ideas in our time upon earth.

I also don't see how defacing other peoples religions and ideas, for example, "joos", is minding your own business. To me, that seems to be actively seeking controversy.

Re: Indeed.

Well folks. I am your average, everyday person. I am someone who exists in the culture from which i have been brought up in. I exist in a culture which promotes respect and tolerance to all people, no matter their beliefs, ideas, opinions or formulations of their surroundings. I fail to see that in this only web forum. I thought the idea of following any form of religion was to respect others, to have something that helps you communicate with others and to have something that lets you get through hard times. A guiding light in your life, I suppose you could say.

Yet, how does insulting other peoples beliefs and ideas, suggesting that they should be "eternally damned" from your communities, simply because they feel different about the world then you do, achieve your goals? Is that not rather close minded? Perhaps even self assured? Wouldn't your time be better spent minding your own business?

I think you should really give a good, hard look at your standpoint in life.

If the core value of Christianity is love, then I fail to see it any place on this forum.
