Quote (theodorej @ Sep. 01 2009,01:17) Quote (Stu @ Aug. 30 2009,13:24) Regardless of what you think of him Michael Moore was right about one thing: the US is the land of paranoia. The last two posts provide as much evidence as anyone should need.
Stuart
Greetings Stu….. Michael Moore is nothing more than a selfserving ingrate and any resemblence of his uterings, be it on film or in print is nothing more than extension of his huberous……This Gluton should not be taken seriously….
Hmmm. I think an ad hominem argument is not going to convince me that he is not onto something regarding the paranoid culture prevalent in the US.Stuart

I have worship service in my home with my wife, and my Lord, and THAT makes a church. “Where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of you.”[Mat 18:20]
As for “The reference is posted here somewhere at Heavennet,” Thanks for the reference. So now you want to direct me to the exact precisely identified number of denominations, as though I am going to spend the rest of my summer looking through thousands of posts to find one estimate? I don't think so. Beside the fact you have no knowledge whatsoever as to how “seriously” your source made his “count.”
If you knew anything about the dictionary you would know that there is no number that defines a denomination.
How about you give me some references for all the spurious nonsense you have posted about homosexuality? Then I might take the time to find this one reference I have not provided for you.
I don't really care what you think of the statistic actually. Your sudden newfound interest in facts is disingenuous, I think.
Stuart
Well, I hav elooked for references to all that spurious nonsense in my post, but can't find anything but facts, and I already gave scriptural references for every fact.I don't know what it is you are looking for unless it is total capitulation by the Christian world.
Don'g look for it soon.
you can't find anything but facts……care to share where you found them (apart from your scripture, which is not relevant to today!)?

September 1, 2009 at 5:00 am#143470evehParticipantBecause one church does this does not mean we have a fallen nation. Most of the churches do not accept this behaviour. I am not necessarily defending them, they have enough false doctrine already but at least they can still read the world “Abomination”…and know what it means. God doesn't change.
Any church that accepts men and women who openly speak of their homosexual lifestyle and live that life, without calling those people to repentance in the same way we all have to repent of our sins, is shameful. No one should be holding an office in the church who is unrepentant. That includes that Deacon who is cheating on his wife and everyone knows it. Or the Preacher who nips a little wine on the side.

However, I do not believe that all Christians peresecute others who are different than them, partly because most Christians don't have a clue about what is written in their bibles. What a bigoted statement! You infer that knowledgeable Christians are necessarily persecutors and Christians who do not persecute do not because they are ignorant.
YOU ARE A CLASS A-1 BIGOT! So take the beam out of your own eye.
thinker
How is it bigoted? As Stu said, do you even know what the word means? If you look it up, you would find that you make many more “bigoted” statements on this board than I ever would.Sorry to inform you, but the bible is chock full of persecution of others. Anyone who reads it without Christian-colored glasses can see it.
In any case, I know many Christians who do not look down on others for being different and engaging in activities, thoughts, etc. that are contrary to biblical living.
One wonders if the Jesus at the well (John 4) was really the same god who inspired Deut 28…
Did you not mean to infer that a knowledgeable Christian will persecute?thinker
October 21, 2009 at 5:39 pm#152590StuParticipantThis news article based on a recent study of about 2000 young New Zealanders shows that the bible should have no place in the education of adolescents.

Stu,
What is the unforgivable (unpardonable) sin?
A history of repeated rejection of the Holy Spirit is unforgivable when it reaches the point where the sinner is willfully deaf to God's call. (Mt 12:30-32)
A sin willfully committed in direct defiance of God is unforgivable when it reaches the point where the sinner is an avowed and committed enemy of God. (Nu 15:27-31)
You know anyone like this Stu?
Quote Keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane [and] vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: 1Timothy 6:20 “The true” or “sound doctrine” to be taught, as opposed to “the science falsely so called,” which leads to “error concerning the faith”. Where there is no faith, there is no knowledge.

I do hate the possibility of god because I think the universe can only be beautiful without one.I am reprobate! I love it. I prefer fool, actually, but reprobate will do.
As I am such, the word sin is of no consequence to me whatever.
These gospel writers, and especially their megalomaniac friend Saul of Tarsus really worked hard to negate doubt didn't they? It is almost as if they are trying too hard to cover up their con.

No. They are responsible for that.

Torn out nothing, when it showed me how wicked I was, I repented instead of killing myself.Also I knew you would not take responsibility, the godless rarely do, for it is about themselves and their own fleshly desires and care nothing for others. I doubt you care anything for the homosexuel with the exception for argument sake in that they are your ammo against christianity.
October 22, 2009 at 8:45 am#152791StuParticipantSounds like you are desperate. Are you sure you are a good advertisement for the christian delusion?
I do not take responsibility for the actions of others, except in the sense that we all share responsibility for looking out for one another. Will you be commenting on the “fleshy desires” of christians, of have you managed to remove that (god-given?) part of your humanity from yourself altogether?
Do you know me well enough to state whether I care nothing for others? It is not me that advocates hating your family in order to follow an invented martyr.
What would you have me say to my gay friend? I embrace him and his right to express himself free of your persecution. I reject your busy-body bigotry. For a believer in a belief system that brainlessly suggests you should not be interested in the affairs of men, you sure are interested in the affairs of men.
There is no need to look for 'ammo' against christianity. All you will ever need is to be found in its book of nasty spells, incantations and death threats.
