Quote (Kangaroo Jack Jr. @ Mar. 24 2011,06:48)Mike,Kathi and you agree that Jesus was literally begotten. This basic agreement makes for a more favorable tenor in all your discussions even when you disagree. But because you disagree with Keith and I on this the whole dynamic changes.Keith has been carrying himself here with MANY anti-trinitarians…[Read more]

KJ, you are allowed your opinion of course. But your statement appears to make you a heretic according to those who police, administer, and invented that doctrine.For me there is no value in the doctrine or the organisations that police and administer it.But you are an adherent, so you have gone out on a tangent with this as you are saying that…[Read more]

Quote (mikeboll64 @ Mar. 22 2011,14:35)You want me to “rub him out”? “Fit him for cement boots”? “Put him to sleep with the fishes”? Consider it done, Bugsy.Cement is a bit expensive these days.Can you use river rocks?

Quote (Kangaroo Jack Jr. @ Mar. 23 2011,05:22)If Mike don't apologize I'll give him two BIG tiles with his initials engraved on them. KJ, have you answered the question truthfully?Yes / NoThat is what you need to confess first before hitting the ball into the other court.

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Mar. 23 2011,03:17)t8Do you have a comprehension problem? Read my words again.Did I say “You called me a liar'?No I said…”T8 has all but called me a liar by inferring I am dishonest”.Who is the one with the false conclusion?WJNo I don't have a comprehension problem that I know of.Great.So “all but” means I haven't. We…[Read more]

WJ, it is neither.John 1:1c does not have a definite article before the last mention of theos.Both your options have the definite article.You capitalised “God” in the second option. Scholars captilise rather than use the definite article in such instances. Your first example is capitalised and so is your second.So your second option really says…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Mar. 23 2011,19:08)You realise it would be crazy to actually call your god anything seriously when the god only exists in your imagination,According to your standards of truth, Mike doesn't have an imagination because you cannot touch, see, or hear his imagination.You also can't touch, see, or hear God and you conclude that he doesn't…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Mar. 23 2011,18:59)Thanks karmarie.  I have to admit I stay down where I have been put and do not adventure up here where I am also allowed very often.A motto of mine is to love the christian but oppose the christianity that makes them say silly things.The most important aspect of that is still to love the christian.StuartWhat law is…[Read more]

Quote (Kangaroo Jack @ Mar. 22 2011,11:34)t8,Is the quote by Mikeboll below appropriate for a moderator?Quote You sir, have either misread the question, or are a LIAR.  And I prefer to not engage in scriptural discussions with LIARS.Yes it is appropriate.Why?First off it is appropriate to not want to discuss scripture with liars. Especially…[Read more]

Quote (Kangaroo Jack @ Jan. 05 2010,13:32)Gene,Hear the word of God:Revelation 19:6:For the Lord God omnipotent reigns.”Jude 4:“…our only Master and Lord Jesus Christ.”The Lord God reigns. Jesus Christ is our “only master and Lord.” Do the math dude!thinkerIt's not a matter of math, because the OT LORD (YHWH) is not the same word as the NT Lord…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Mar. 21 2011,21:53)Religious platitude.Like the statement I have faith and believe that there is no God.Religious platitude.

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Mar. 22 2011,06:19)Hey JackI have, but I doubt t8 will do anything even though he disagrees with the JWs and Mikes arthrous rendering of John 1:1C.T8 has all but called me a liar by inferring I am dishonest.It's Ok because I know who the “Accuser of the Brethren” is. WJHave I said you are a liar?Where?If I think someone…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Mar. 22 2011,07:38)JackIt won't matter. Mike is t8s hit man, IMO!WJMike.Get WJ. I want him taken out.Once he is taken out, please pick up our pay cheque.

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Mar. 22 2011,01:59)t8But according to the scriptures it is “grammatically” possible for 2 to be 1 flesh, right?Yes and that is more support as to why scripture applies theos/elohim to others.But identities do not change. Adam is Adam and Eve is Eve who is qualitatively adam and not Adam himself. The Father is identified…[Read more]

Quote (SimplyForgiven @ Mar. 21 2011,18:24)someone else who doesnt exist? to whom?To the one who was with God in the beginning and the one by whom he created everything through perhaps.

My 2 cents worth.Mike shouldn't call anyone a liar.But, Mike didn't call anyone a liar. He said EITHER you are one or you are not reading the evidence properly.So he is also open to the possibility that KJ is not reading the evidence properly meaning that KJ is not a liar.However, I think that it is better to say “either you are not not being…[Read more]

Quote (mikeboll64 @ Mar. 20 2011,00:34)Good point t8,Could you fix the choices to say “a” instead of “the”?  In the title too?Thanks,mikeIt is set in concrete now. I can change a post, but not the choices in the poll.I think people understand the gist anyway.

Quote (Stu @ Mar. 19 2011,23:42)Would you like a list of smart Romans who believed in Bacchus?Yes please.BTW, you don't have to quote a post if you are replying to the one above. It makes it harder to follow a thread when you do that.

Stu, who cares where it came from, so long as it is true is all that matters.Those scientists believed in God. You disagree with them.BTW, there is no comparison with the lists we each provided.Charlie Chaplin vs Isaac Newton?OK, Charlie wins when it comes to slapstick I will give you that.
