Nice of you to be on here!

Re: Howdy!

Welcome Peace. What is your favorite verse in the 1611 King James Bible? I'm almost afraid to ask if your pie is sweet and warm and moist as you probably don't know how to bake considering you wasted your entire youth pursuing a degree in jibberjabberpsychology. I can tell you really love Baby Jesus because you are using reverse psychology on us. Very tricky. Are you going to start answering questions with questions shortly.

I actually enjoy baking very much. I can make all sorts of pies, cakes, and cookies from scratch.

I have no need to use reverse psychology here...reason and logic work just fine for me.

My dear, my Godly eyes squint in horror as I read over your words in these past few pages. But I must hold my nose and point out a grievous contradiction in your reasoning.

You have "peace" and love in your horrid username, but apparently, you don't know that drug-using, pro-peace hippies are an affront to Jesus and his Holy War (See Matthew 10:34-38).

Hippies profess "peace" but have no idea at what cost it comes. If we Christians didn't wage our holy American war all over the world and throw grenades in mosques and march across the globe to conquer Jesus' enemies for him, we wouldn't have the peace in our borders like we do have. Please think about that before your next bong hit.

Peace in our borders? Really? Have you bothered to read the newspaper lately? If so then you would know our borders to the north and south are anything but peaceful or safe these days.

Throwing grenades in mosques and conquering Jesus' enemies? How is that peaceful or even right? You're attacking innocent people who are just trying to practice their religion as is their right, just like you have the right to practice any religion you choose to follow. How do you know they are "Jesus' enemies?" Did he tell you that himself? Or is it just what you think his enemies would be?

Re: Howdy!

I am a 22 year old female from Texas. I just graduated from university with a BA in Psychology and am a liberal agnostic.

I was originally raised as a Christian but never felt comfortable living a religious lifestyle.

I have nothing against Christianity personally... I believe any and all forms of religious faith are irrational.

I do believe in what I can see and I do not believe in believing something out of blind faith. I believe in the PROVEN fact of Evolution.

I do not like to slander anyone for their beliefs but I will speak up if I see a moral fallacy in them.

Re: Howdy!

I think that is the point; no one here on earth could ever REALLY AND TRULLY know what "God" wants. He isn't a real life human being here on earth, he's a celestial being at best or an imaginative idea. I would think that if you truly believed in Him, you would have to be dead and in Heaven to really know what he wants, and that way you learn in heaven about your mistakes on earth.

God is not "an idea." God is as real as the very fires of hell!

I am not trying to be rude and I apologize to anyone I know I'll offend when they read this. I am just trying to understand what you guys see that I just don't.

I for one am deeply offended. Who are you to waltz into our Christian forum spewing hatred against God Almighty, who made everything you see?

If you'd like to find out more about Landover Baptist Church, please read THIS thread created especially for new posters. But what you lack is Christian Discernment. No amount of narcotic ingestion will get it for you either.

What do you think the Bible actually is? How do you think Christians know/find out about God? God has laid out clearly precisely how to behave in all eventualities because He loves us and wants to give us every chance to not burn in Hell from ignorance.

We've tried time and time again to get you to stop hurting Baby Jesus and to just go and read the Bible from cover to cover and change your life instead of not realising almost every aspect of your life you have revealed to us by your own words is a filthy sin that is condemning you to everlasting torment. But you stubbornly refuse to listen. It's tough love we're offering you here!

Re: Howdy!

I know you secular folk love to make up your own rules and sometimes you even get them right by pure chance but how can you be certain it is what God wants?

Re: Howdy!

...why don't you try first without mentionin the Bible for once. I understand that you all enjoy quoting it so much, but I feel like sometimes a few of you "True Christians" use the Bible as an excuse to stand behind for the things you say and the actions you carry out against others.

Why would I ever not use the Bible for my inspiration and moral compass? How else am I to know what is right if I do not look to a truly divine source for my morals and ethics?

Never an excuse, young lady, but as a reason.

Re: Howdy!

I can understand this modern world leading you astray with its secular values but again God, in His love, has shown you how to behave. It's not your fault you have feelings rather than true thoughts so without proper instruction you have strayed into adultery and not knowing your place. Small wonder you are so grumpy and in search of answers. Your spirit must be crying out for a real man to lead you after being let down so much by the men in your life.

I am anything but grumpy...I am happy in my life and have many exciting things going for me.

If you really think I need a "real" man to lead me then why don't you try first without mentionin the Bible for once.

Re: Howdy!

What is embarrassing about wanting to learn new things? Why should I not have knowledge of the world around me just because I am a woman?

Oh dear!

Titus 2 3The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; 4That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, 5To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

1 Timothy 2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

This is becoming embarrassing. Even if your father is a heathen he must be shamed by your conduct.

1 Corinthians 14:35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

Re: Howdy!

Nonsense. All dope addicts are perverts.

By the way, this is a Christian forum. Why are you here?

You do not even know me so how can you auomatically accuse me of being a pervert. Your accusation is completely unfounded.

I am here to learn about other's beliefs and views and to share my own beliefs and views. This seems to be okay with your Pastor Billy-Reuben in the Introduction Forum section for "noobs."

I really am not out to spread hate and call people names but I have already been called many hateful names from your "True Chrstians" such as "harlot, adultress, monkey-worshiping, slut, an pervert (from you)."

Re: Howdy!

I may smoke but I am definitely not a pervert.
