Who has actually Read IT????????

[x]

all I know is The Jesus of the Bible radically changed my life!

Just means you drank the Kool Aid... not a bad thing... not a good thing... but good to remember that you have undergone an internal psychological experience... it usually takes a significant shock to move the psyche to a new position.  Glad it works for you.  And... doesn't mean a thing with respect to whether Jesus or God is 'real'.

[SANDMAN5]

Can God make a rock so big that even He/She/It cannot move it?

Yes, God can make a rock so big that He can't move it...and then He can move it!!
You either get it or you don't.

P.S. Still waiting on those 'contradictions' that were mentioned.

[Wewaman]

Here it is in a nutshell: The reason some believe and some don't.  Hebrews 11: 6 But without faith it is impossible to please God, for he that cometh to God must believe that he is,(God)  and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. 

[elraque]

Still waiting for you to earn that respect from me... waiting....

Why would I care what you think?  You seem to be a little full of yourself.

Mr. Kettle, Mr. Pot is pleased to meet you...

(By the way, that's the problem with this world. People just don't care.)

The conclusion you are making is that only those who read the bible have faith? It is a simple world you live in  Big A. Probably best that way, let's you simplify a complex world.

If that post had come from anyone but you, wouldn't you say that it sounds a little sociopathic? I'm just askin'...

Not at all.  You seem to think that I need to be approaching you in some way to earn your respect.  My view is:  Why would I care what you think?  I don't care whether you respect me or not.  I don't care if you agree with me or not.  And fer sure, I'll be dog cursed if I change what I believe, think, and say to 'earn your respect'.  Who bloody cares?

You want sociopathic?  Could really be you... just sayin'...

[SANDMAN5]

And to think some people get on here and complain because other
people don't respect their beliefs. But let's not start THAT again.

67 out of 3448 registered members responded to this poll.  That's only 1.9% that even cared about this poll! What does that say about the faithful?

[Serk]

The poll was had you read it, not do you have faith in it...

I've read it...

I've also read most of the works of Dr. Seuss too, but that doesn't mean I like green eggs and ham...

The word is sharper than a two edged sword.

Able to judge between the Quick and the Dead.

So which are you is the question.

In the End it is simple Duckwheat.

Dividing the Quick and the Dead.

Pretty Simple yes.

But the most important aspect of one's existance.

I am not one of those KooL Aid Drinkers either.

Man kind is given some inalienable rights by the Creator, just like the  Declaration of Ind. States.

They were right and it is up to us to choose.

Went most of half my life not caring one way or the other and that's all the enemy has to

get you to do. Not care,,,,,,,, one way or the other.

So go ahead and pick it apart , the Bible that is , but not a person on this Earth will escape it's

truths. You can try it but no one has escaped it yet,,,,, that I have talked to.

Intolerance comes in many forms; arrogance is one of them, as is dismissing one's opponents as being ignorant or bigoted rather than drawn deeply to different principles or priorities.

[Duckwheat]

"In the End it is simple Duckwheat."

I know, that is working for you. Keep it really simple, black and white and you should get through this life without any hiccups. Keep the words monosyllabic and don't entertain a thought outside your comfort zone. It is going to be OK.

DuckWheat you obviously don't care for Ole Big AL.

And really hate anything I come up with to post here.

So won't you try coming up with something you like and place it on the board here.

We would all love to hear how you could motivationally promote outside of the box thought.

Putting somone down is not motivational.

So I could be your first test case.

Motivate Me don't , Quoata-Tate me.

Here is a Group to Lead.

Life Coach us as well.

I don't see any evidence of your prowess at this point.

Sorry.

Maybe I am just reading you wrong.

But you are fun to poke fun at.

Maybe that's your motivational part.

Straight Man.

Love Yah
