a lurker de-lurks

[Oliver Brendan Hayve]

Hi, all. I've been reading this board for some time, and I've finally decided to create an account so that I can respond to the outlandish views that I see here. I probably won't agree with most of you people on much, since you prize being Christian Republican heterosexuals, and I am none of those things.

I was brought up as a Catholic, but when I read the Bible for myself, I decided that I could not accept it as true and deconverted. Even though I reject the Bible, I have to commend you on your intellectual honesty in actually following it, while so many who call themselves Christians just decide a priori what they want to believe and then make believe that the Bible backs them up.

Here is my favorite passage from the Bible:

Ecclesiastes 3:18-22
18I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.
19For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.
20All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.
21Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?
22Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?

Congratulations on condemning yourself to eternal hell fire, God mocking queer.

Even though you are going to hell, I will congratulate you on congratulating us for FOLLOWING the Word of God and not trying to twist His law into sinful preconceptions. Perhaps we're onto other good things too - it's not too late to reverse course again and save your soul. Jesus always wants that last wandering sheep, friend.

(Yes, we know what a priori means, even though it's from apostate catlick language - we're not chowderheads...)

Re: a lurker de-lurks

Hey Oliver. I like that bible verse you posted. Its deep and meaningful.

I think your making a mistake by not paying attention to the bible at all tho. I mean some parts are obviusly wrong and could not be written by the God who is within all of us and loves us all. But that doesn't mean you have to ignore the good parts too! Just read it and listen to the God within you and youll know wheter its a true part of the bible or not.

If you don't beleive in SOMETHING how will you ever become the deep and spiritual person you can be? I really like this wisdom quote from Deepak Chopra.

Each of us is here to discover our true Self,
that essentially we are spiritual beings
who have taken manifestation in physical form,
that we're not human beings that have occasional spiritual experiences,
that we're spiritual beings that have occasional human experiences.

Thats sooo deep when you think about it. Really makes ya think.

Anywho its nice to have another not crazy person but you should really find some parts of the bible that are true and resonate with your spirit and beleive in those. I go to a Universalist Unitarian church and we find good parts from lotsa holy books. There is beauty and truth in all paths, but I dont see how you can just not beleive in anything.

~Namaste~

Hello, and welcome to our friendly forum.

Hi, all. I've been reading this board for some time, and I've finally decided to create an account so that I can respond to the outlandish views that I see here. I probably won't agree with most of you people on much, since you prize being Christian Republican heterosexuals, and I am none of those things.

Jesus brought you here for a reason, boy. You seriously need to rethink your way of living unless you wish to face an eternity of pain and suffering in the flames of hell. Being a homersexual atheist demoncrat will not save you from being cast into the lake of fire.

I was brought up as a Catholic, but when I read the Bible for myself, I decided that I could not accept it as true and deconverted. Even though I reject the Bible, I have to commend you on your intellectual honesty in actually following it, while so many who call themselves Christians just decide a priori what they want to believe and then make believe that the Bible backs them up.

It seems to me that, unlike most of the unsaved trash that wind up here, you understand the true essence of Christianity. However, as an ex-papist you've probably had to suffer a lot of sexual abuse as a child which may be the direct cause of your hatred against Jesus.

But you should know that Cathlicks are NOT Christians and despite all the sexual abuse you may find among the Cathlicks, you will find no such thing here. So, isn't it time to give Jesus another chance? All you need to do is to accept Him as your Lord and Savior, repent of your sins and enter an ex-gay program to wash away your sick perversions.

If you wish to be Saved© I strongly suggest that you contact a pastor immediately.

Here is my favorite passage from the Bible:

Ecclesiastes 3:18-22
18I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.
19For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.
20All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.
21Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?
22Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?

You seem to possess some scriptural knowledge. We could use more people like you in rebuking unsaved scum. Instead of hating Jesus, why don't you join us on our path towards Salvation™? Either that or you can enjoy hell.

YIC,
Alex

Oliver, I think you need a hug. I know a guy with a twinkle in his eye. He has been watching you for some time, lurking if you will. He is very interested in you, a little older but very wise. I think you two could hit it off if you'd like to meet him.

Thanks young man.

It is a narrow road that leads to Heaven. Many pretend christians (note little c) pick and choose the verses they want to live by and think God will reward them. They will only find the truth when it is too late for their salvation©.

Matthew 7:13-15 (King James Version)
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Re: a lurker de-lurks

First of all, this is NOT a debate forum. Please read THIS thread before making an even bigger fool of yourself.

Secondly, while the internets might seem to be "free" to you, this particular corner of the internets is a privately owned Christian forum. The rights you have on this forum are listed HERE. Please contact a Pastor immediately if you feel that any of your rights have been violated.

Finally, your unsaved opinions or tantrums are not even slightly of interest to us. We follow the Holy Word of God TO THE LETTER, and make no apologies for that. One of the most important commandments in the Bible tells us to avoid unsaved scum such as yourself. You wandered in here uninvited, and unwelcome .


Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.

I will pray that the Holy Spirit enter you and chase the demons out of your rectum and let Jesus fill you with His Grace. If you use your God-given free will to reject Christ and His temporary death on the cross for my sins, then you are sending yourself to hellfire.

Dear friend:

I suppose that your anti-Christian persecution should anger me, but instead it saddens me to see that you've given up on God so easily. It appears that even though you can quote snippets of Scripture, the Romanist mind rape has left you incapable of understanding God's Word, just as the physical rape by Fr. Badtouch has made you a homer. I will pray for you.

I really like this wisdom quote from Deepak Chopra.

Go quote your Deepak, 2pac & Vanilla Ice Cube elsewhere.
