Re: this is why you read

I know fundamentalist christians are incredibly close-minded, even when it comes to the old testament. Apologists like Lee Strobel try to make excuses like "oh, those babies that got slaughtered by the jewish army went straight to heaven,".

I have no idea who Strobel is, sounds Jewish, but no, babies don't go straight to heaven.

Fair enough, but what about 10 or 11 year-olds from those cities? Once those kids reached the age of accountability, they only had around a few months to get converted.

Hell, also, please find me scripture that gives this "age of accountability" because it doesn't exist.

Plus, I'm sure those gentile kids did not get exposed to different worldviews in their villages.

To put it in modern terms "sucks to be them". Why are you blaming us for things that happened 3,000-4,000 years ago?

Plus, if Jehovah is so-against child sacrifice, then why did he command the jewish army to kill the babies? Is it okay to kill babies as long as you don't sacrifice them?

Yeah, we're not supposed to sacrifice humans. Congrats on figuring that much out. Now point out where in the Bible it says that killing sinners is wrong.

Plus, why is there so much hatred on this forum? I guess I'm kind of a hypocrite on that matter because I did call you guys fundtards. Of course, my anger is righteouss and non-deluded, so nevermind.

There is no hatred on this forum. And don't claim righteous anger if you don't know your Bible. You are not a True Christian(tm). You don't know your Bible and therefore have no right to attempt to claim righteous anger.

Matthew 7:1-5 Judge not, that ye be not judged.2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

...Apologists like Lee Strobel try to make excuses like "oh, those babies that got slaughtered by the jewish army went straight to heaven,"...

Ms. Strobel hasn't read the Bible.

John 3:18 "He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

No exemption for those "too young to understand".

...Fair enough, but what about 10 or 11 year-olds from those cities? Once those kids reached the age of accountability, they only had around a few months to get converted...

There is no justification in the Bible for belief in such a concept.

...Plus, if Jehovah is so-against child sacrifice...

Where are you getting all these ideas? READ YOUR BIBLE.

...Of course, my anger is righteouss and non-deluded, so nevermind.

Prove it.

Muslim is not a race.

What I meant to say was that some Muslim immigrants are racist towards white people.

"Not that racist"? What level of racism stops being offensive?

By "not that racist" I meant that white people aren't racist nowadays. I'm NOT saying that white people nowadays only lynch 5 black people a year, compared to 200 black people a year during the 1960s. Black-on-white rape is a more serious problem than white-on-black rape, not including prison rape. This is a serious problem we're going to have to acknowledge sooner or later. In terms of affirmative action, my question to you is, would you prefer a black surgeon or an asian/white surgeon to perform a very important surgery on your body, assuming that the black surgeon was hired not because he was qualified, but because a racial quota had to be fulfilled?

So you're a self-hating negro? There are no white racists nowadays? Have you ever heard of neo-nazi's? They're pretty racist. I'm not sure why you support white men raping black women, but not black men raping white women. Rape is rape, and the Bible clearly tells us how to deal with rapists in Deuteronomy 22.

Why wouldn't an asian surgeon fill the racial quota?

I don't think you've thought any of your assertions through and are just parroting...... well something..... I'm not really sure where you get your information from. It's definitely not the Bible, it's not the liebrals, your dog? Does your dog tell you these things?

Look up "unfalsifiable" (hint: it's a logic fail).

...By "not that racist" I meant that white people aren't racist nowadays...

Now you're asserting that there are no racist white people in the world. Do I need to point out the problems with that?

...I'm NOT saying that white people nowadays only lynch 5 black people a year, compared to 200 black people a year during the 1960s...

No, now they just toss incendiary devices (oh, sorry, "tear gas canisters which get really really hot, so much so that we refer to them as 'burners'") into the cabin where they're hiding out, and then say, "Oh, we didn't intentionally set the place on fire...".

...Black-on-white rape is a more serious problem than white-on-black rape, not including prison rape. This is a serious problem we're going to have to acknowledge sooner or later...

So, in your opinion, rape is somehow worse when the skin colours don't match?

...In terms of affirmative action, my question to you is, would you prefer a black surgeon or an asian/white surgeon to perform a very important surgery on your body, assuming that the black surgeon was hired not because he was qualified, but because a racial quota had to be fulfilled?

You assume that the black surgeon was hired to fill a quota, but you're not racist.

Re: this is why you read

Who I am and what I do away from the internet is not important. What I do on the internet aside from visiting online forums is unimportant as well. I came here because I wanted to have a discussion. I myself am surrounded by idiots in my life, and it can get pretty frustrating. Trying to talk to these people in my life is like trying to push against a wall; it's a pointless and exhausting experience. The people out there who are intelligent are very rare indeed. Luckily, there are online forums such as Landover Baptist, where I can spread my wisdom. Some of the members of this site are very idiotic, and yet I sense that there is a possibility of somehow getting into your minds, and helping to change and open them. You guys seem to be different from other fundtards.

After having thought over my positions on several political issues, I have decided I am "liberal" on progressive taxation, gay marriage, abortion, the nanny state, healthcare, and immigration. I am "conservative" on guns, voter ID, affirmative action, and while I am not as partisan as someone like Scott Walker, I do support limiting collective bargaining in times of deficits. But I do not support permanent abandonment of collective bargaining, just as I do not support permanent tax cuts. Certain gen-ed classes in schools are important, but speech and art are not among them. When it comes to gay marriage, I support exempting churches from having to marry gay couples. I'm okay with gay men serving in the military whether openly or not, but I can understand not having gays in the Boy Scouts. For abortion, here's the deal. If you want to decrease abortion rates, then support contraception. And don't forget to walk the walk. Be ready to adopt babies who might otherwise be aborted.

When it comes to political pundits, I respect Bill O'reilly, Greta Van Susteren, Mike Huckabee, Rachel Maddow, Alan Colmes, and journalists like Ezra Klein, Joe Klein, and Fareed Zakaria. mormons that I try to stay away from include Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Ann Coulter, and of course, Michael Moore, Keith Olbermann, and Ed Scultz. And of course, there are people in the middle, such as Bill Maher, Chris Matthews, Lawrence O'donnell, Al Sharpton, Laura Ingraham, and Piers Morgan, who I am neutral towards. Away from politics, you should also watch South Park, and of course, the Boondocks, a black American anime. The best character is Huey Freeman of course.

As a good Christian I pray that your liberal atheist godmocking face burns in hell for all eternity. Praise the Lord!

Re: this is why you read

I know fundamentalist christians are incredibly close-minded, even when it comes to the old testament.

If by "incredibly close-minded" you mean "accept the Word of God as written, not as imagined," then yes! I am guilty! Praise Jesus, I trust His Holy Word, the King James Bible (2 Timothy 3:16; Romans 15:4; Deuteronomy 29:29)!

Apologists like Lee Strobel try to make excuses like "oh, those babies that got slaughtered by the jewish army went straight to heaven,". Fair enough,

That's neither fair nor accurate. "Fair" would be punishment for the crime of sinning and offending a Righteous God (Isaiah 5:25; Hosea 8:5; Zechariah 10:3).

but what about 10 or 11 year-olds from those cities? Once those kids reached the age of accountability, they only had around a few months to get converted.

Those kids were intentionally ignorant of the LORD's Will and they deserved every sword that separated their heathen heads from their Yahweh-mocking bodies (Psalm 51:4).

Plus, I'm sure those gentile kids did not get exposed to different worldviews in their villages.

Salvation comes from faith, and faith comes as a gift of God, not from exposure to other worldviews (Ephesians 2:8).

Plus, if Jehovah is so-against child sacrifice, then why did he command the jewish army to kill the babies? Is it okay to kill babies as long as you don't sacrifice them?

As has been pointed out to you already, the problem isn't with killing the enemy (even babies), but with sacrificing babies to false gods.

Plus, why is there so much hatred on this forum? I guess I'm kind of a hypocrite on that matter because I did call you guys fundtards.

That's rather rude of you. No one here is a hater. We love God as we are commanded, as is required for Salvation© (John 14:21), and we simply want to help ignorant people like you know your options (hint: Heaven or Hell).

Of course, my anger is righteouss and non-deluded, so nevermind.

You're mistaken. Yours is not a righteous anger, it is a complaining whine borne from ignorance and belief in a phantom "Jesus" that never actually existed.

What I meant to say was that some Muslim immigrants are racist towards white people.

All muslims are racist. They're also incredibly intolerant of other religions.

By "not that racist" I meant that white people aren't racist nowadays.

Certainly not True Christians™. We don't see race, or creed, or gender, or political affiliation (Colossians 3:11; Galatians 3:28). We see True Christian™ and Unsaved Scum, just like the Good LORD (Isaiah 43:25).

Black-on-white rape is a more serious problem than white-on-black rape, not including prison rape. This is a serious problem we're going to have to acknowledge sooner or later.

Okay, but why are you interjecting your rape fantasies into this discussion now?

In terms of affirmative action, my question to you is, would you prefer a black surgeon or an asian/white surgeon to perform a very important surgery on your body, assuming that the black surgeon was hired not because he was qualified, but because a racial quota had to be fulfilled?

Neither. I prefer the Great Physician, that is the Lord Jesus Christ (Deuteronomy 32:3; Job 5:18; Isaiah 19:22)!
