@Fastfredy0?
Unreal isn't it?
Well, except for DCpnstipated they are not that bad. They IMO are ignorant to truth to a much great extent than us, but what are you to expect. God gives gifts in varying degrees. I didn't see any personal attacks and that is all I ask. They attack ideas at times in a less than acedemic way, but we are not conversing with higher acedemia here afterall. Their logic is faulty so they can't see the contradictions, but that is to be expected. They have a herd of follows to say they are correct and give their intellect enough acrediation to remain confident in their beliefs. They are stuck in a idea of God that loves everyone and therefore he must do this or that according to that misunderstanding. Confronted with the fact the God is holy and can't love evil beings they hide. Told God hates evildoers they change the definition of the word. LOL ... I have heard FAITH, WORK, HATE all redefined. (giggles to himself). I don't blame them for ganging up, their theology is weak but there is strength in numbers.
..... They understand the simpler things like we are not saved by works, but can't extrapolate from that. I don't see why you are surprised. They do love God, I give them that .. love him greatly even. They, for the most part, lack training in logic and definitely in acceptable formal debate. They often can't answer direct questions and this media makes it even more difficult to do so.
.... Keep in mind most of them have been Christians for a long time and most training in modern Christian theology and as history shows time and time again, Christians dogma gets distorted more and more and once in a while gets corrected (Example: reformation).
.... So, I am here to throw pearls to hmmm, the less educated and misdirected ... an exercise to see if I can answer questions or find questions I can't answer and to fill in time with an unusual form of entertainment.
.... I guess you have to ask yourself why you are here and if this place satisfies that need. You are unlikely to change minds as these people are too set in their ways (as are we).
Oh well, done venting ... I was going to post this on regular board, but why upset "the gang". Thought I would send you this moral support. I should proof read, but too lazy. For what it is worth, I respect your opinion so you have 1 fan.
New subject. My pet peeve against Calvinism (not a biggy, but here goes)
I really don't the aspect of Calvinism when I go for a walk and am about to say "God loves you" and then say to myself, "Well, I can't lie as I don't know God loves my grand daughter". That stinks. Hey, I know it right, but I wish I could be like 'most on the forum' and say with confidence that "God loves you". This is not a biggy ... God is perfect ... OK, done venting against REFORM theology ... lol.
Don't take these jokers seriously ... I do think they love God .... always a chance we are wrong.
