Why don't you look at the quotes and discuss them? I'm pointing out to you and your buddy mont concrete passages that prove what I'm saying, but you close your eyes and you ears. Look at the fucking quotes then discuss them!Quote:

Meh, whatever, I gotta go, but I'll be back...
Just go back in the thread and read the whole conversation, it's almost funny how you people don't want to post proof, or don't want to deal with it when it is presented to you. Then you just resort to condescending attitudes that proves absolutely nothing. I'm not trying to convert anyone, all I want is for you to look at waht I'm saying, and tell me your interpretations, but you don't seem to want to do it, you just want to talk to people who agree with you.
Meh, go on wit yor bad self......(pay backs for incling:stoned: )Quote:

Talk about closed eyes and ears! Maybe if you'd behaved like a gentleman, like mont did when we had a "misunderstanding" I wouldn't have such a bad taste in my mouth for you. You wouldn't listen to anything from us in the beginning, now you want us to read your shit.
wah, wah, wah
And I didn't say you don't know anything. I just said you don't know anything about GOD. I think that is a fair statement, being your an athiest. I am sure you know plenty :)

Damit son, repetition is getting old. If you want to know what I know about god, look up all my posts and read them. I am sick of coddling you. Look for yourself!Quote:

I am very easy to get along with, I am also very sarcastic.
I hear what your saying, and I ask you this. Isn't it sad that we may have been friends had we met in another board? That is why I prefer to agree to disagree. But you didn't like that, remember?
But really, I am the most forgiving person in the world. Not that you need "forgiven" for anything, I am just saying that I don't hold grudges. I try to not engage in any negativity. I TRY :)
But seriously, did you read the article I posted? Does it not seem at all possible? And if not the whole part, did some of it seem possible? If no, then what, and why. If we are going to do this, we will do it right, agreed?

OK Flesh, for the sake of the discussion I will look at one of the New Testament references you posted in your quote by Sam.
When discussing punsihment by death he referenced Mark 7:9-13. While verse 10 does take us back to the Law that was given to Moses the reference is out of context. Going back to the beginning of the chapter we see the pharisees arrive. These were very religious and legalistic men. They honored tradition more than than the commandments of God. They added to the Law and treated these additions as binding as the Law. The issue they had was that the disciples had not washed their hands thoroughly as traditions dictated before they ate. Jesus corrected them. The passage that Sam used as "proof" had nothing to do with the actual subject.
I once heard someone say to read the Word with 20/20 vison. That is to help keep things in context, read 20 verses before and 20 verse after the verse you are studying.
Actually, this article summed it up for me pretty good. I do think that I cannot comprehend god as a human though. Just like the article said, a finite mind can not understand an infinite god.Quote:
