I am very bored with the bible trained belief system when there is no logic, only faith and interpretation to answer questions in a circle arguement to protect a government separatist god.
Now, just for entertainment, I will have a conversation with myself as a non believer and answer my own questions through faith and interpretation as a believer.
Me: Why would your god create everyone an individual to follow the same belief?
Believer Interpretation: Well, God is every belief. It is your free will to choose to follow or not.
Me: If I don't believe, wouldn't I go to hell?
Believer: Yes, but you are missing the point. The bible is about love, not hell. All you have to do is accept Jesus, how hard is that?
Me: So I have to accept a belief that separates me from others to go to heaven?
Believer: You have the free will to believe or not. Who wouldn't want to go to heaven?
Me: Why did god intervene physically with the bible, but not intervene to save innocents from dying?
Believer: That would be interrupting free will. Besides, maybe he lets them die to teach us from living in sin.
Me: I thought jesus already died for our sins?
Believer: Next question please.
I'm with you marine...I already ahd some broad tell me that I was on the path of destruction because I am not catholic, I'm the New Age/Unitarian believer. And I was like so? I am proud of who I am and sick of ppl like you who tell me that I'm going to hell because of what I believe when GOD is the one who put me on the path I am on now. *GAG*
I completely agree with you, but for our entertainment, I will respond as a believer.
Believer: God didn't put you on that path. That is the path you chose. We all have free will to take the right path. Jesus loves you and wants you to make the right choices.
And they say they aren't a separatist belief! Ridiculous.
Me: If the bible is not a separatist belief, why does it teach separatism of belief?
Believer: It doesn't. If everyone would follow, we wouldn't be separate.
Me: Everyone doesn't follow, doesn't that mean it is a separatist belief?
Believer: The bible is true. You need to research. I have good book suggestions if you want me to email them to you.
And they say they don't have limited minds. How is a mind not limited when it is defined within a book?
Believer: My mind is not defined to a book. God gave me an unlimited mind. All thoughts aren't good anyways, the devil is behind many negative thoughts.
Me: then why read the book? it was written by MAN NOT GOD.
Believer: because God told man what to write.
which isn't true in anyway because the man takes what he wants from the teachings and writes their interpretation not God's or Jesus' at all.
Ha, excellent! Surprised I didn't write that one before you. Clearly I am not the only one tired of circular faith based separatist belief.
Oh trust me marine I am sick of it too. Yes I still believe in God and some of his teachings but I believe in a lot more now that I have grown up and able to think on my own, to feel on my own, and to come ito contact with other religions with an open mind and open heart. know what I mean?
I also believe in individual belief, no matter what the belief, as long as it doesn't create separatist grouped belief where you are contradicting having an individual mind in the first place. Know exactly what you mean. Cheers to your individual mind.
Why did god created Hell in the first place, if he doesn't want us to go in there ?
Why did he put the tree of wisdom in front of Adam and Eve ,if he didn't want his creation doomed ?
and last but not least, Why a god would created such imperfect creation, being all powerful and with the means to create a perfect world ?
You know what...I think God didn't create Hell. I seriously think that was man made to scare ppl.
I thought we had to give some questions to the believers. Hell is all over the bible.
But I am a believer and that is what I think...and plus like i said before the Bible is written by Man not God.
I have many many damn times..they just don't listen lmao they are hard of hearing and can't read...the bible clouds their true vision and clouds their hearts to the real truth. Shoot I had chick tell me that I am on the path of destruction. LMAO anyone else wanna join me on this path? I don't wanna be alone
The arrogant silly little prophet on my other thread does.
Believer: God had the prophets interpret the bible. The bible is truth.
Believer: God didn't create hell, the devil did. Adam and Eve had free will to choose or not, he didn't want to intervene their free will. The world is perfect when you have faith and believe.
"Cheers to your individual mind"
aaa shucks you're making me blush marine!
Believer: He is the devil. Don't fall for it!
You don't want to hang out with me on my path of destruction? I'm gonna go cry now. I'm all alone all alone!
MARINE Tantrum doesn't want to hang out with me on my path of destruction!
It's not that i don't want. the thing is I'm in the middle of the creation of my own path of destruction
Believer: No love wasted when you accept jesus. All is love when jesus is accepted.
Believer: Jesus has nothing but love for you. Jesus died for your sins! Aren't you thankfull? Jesus is the only way to truth. If you deny jesus, you deny truth.
Believer: Jesus still cares for you though. He will be there when you are ready. His love never stops caring.
i will never be ready for jesus! Maybe I will be ready for you !
Believer: Jesus is the only one. You may never be ready for jesus, but jesus will always be ready for you. Praise jesus.
then he's not as keen as supposed. On 2nd thoughts...maybe if he's still ready for me ,I will give it ago. what's his phone number ?
Believer: He is always ready. He speaks whenever you will listen. His voice needs no phone. Give him you faith and prayer and he is there.
Believer: Jesus accepts you naked or clothed. But, being naked in public is a sin, so wear clothes to the gate of heaven.
Believer: Not at all, everyone is welcome, as long as they believe. Jesus wants you there with him.
But I don't. so we're going in circles. just as in all the other threads
Believer: The path to jesus is always a straight path to righteousness. Believe and you will see. Love is a one way path.
How do yuo like my picture now? it was from Halloween from last year? I was a seductress sorceress.
I thought you two didn't want to hang out with me on my path. Uh huh! LMAO
I have selective seeing. It selected my seeing. lol
Believer: Leg's are a tool of the devil!
To the Believer: Sweet I am going to use my tools HAHAHAHA
To Marine:
Believer: Use your tools as much as you want as long as my wife doesn't find out. What the hell, I have forgiveness to bail me out in the end.
Well the believer does have a point.
Sinful behavior? I don't see anything sinful about posting last year's Halloween pic.
Believer: Halloween and legs are the devil!
Stupid believer. Legs are heaven!

Recently I wrote a hub on faith and imagination. Since I was interested in hearing others opinions on how we should use faith in our imagination I started a thread on this forum. Unfortunately it was high-jacked and the topic at hand was not able to be discussed. So this is basically my second...

A fine fellow posed a very interesting discussion today. You should visit his pages at http://zelkiiro.hubpages.com/ But I speak to something that came up there. Should religion interfere with straightforward empirical science and the logic and actions dictated therein. In my studies I read...

If God is like a light switch in a dark room, why is it so hard to show it to a non-believer?This appeared in a forum post recently:"They are led to stand before the doorstep of a dark room ~ and encouraged to discover if there is any light-switch ('God') inside it. The only way to find out ~...

Does the belief of endless misery cause the believer to rejoice with joy and full of glory? 1Pet 1:8
