Obama Making Stalin Proud

This dude who wrote the bible really seems to be your favorite author. You seem to have really gotten caught up in the characters and storyline. Has he written any other novels of interest, because that one didn't seem to do it for me....

 

I don't think so. I don't want to end up like one of those nerds that is all caught up into Lord of the Rings or anything like that. I don't want to end up wearing Jesus garb at bible conventions....

 

Ok, problem #1: any time you mention the word TRUTH with religion, you're argument automatically fails, because religion is a personal choice. There is no "truth" here. You may think it's truth, you may even believe it's truth, but you can't prove any of it. Add to that the billions of people who believe a different "truth", and you have the recipe for epic FAIL. Stop forcing the rest of the country to believe the same religion that you do.

Man is, by his nature, sinful. Religion is just mankind's interpretation of an assumed God's will. Thus, religion, being a product of man, is by it's very nature sinful. Of course we'll never "measure up" to what God intended. That applies to the GOP as much as it does to the Democrats.

But wait: I though God loved everyone. So, is God really "vs." anyone? Shouldn't She be on everyone's side?

 

If you read the Bible the same way you would read Jabberwocky, seriously, what are you expecting? conversely, would you read Jabberwocky the same way you read the Bible?

if your mind isn't capable of accepting interpretations that allow the Bible to make sense, then there is something inside you that doesn't want it to make sense.

read the bible in a way that allows it to make sense. The bible isn't about how big Noah's ship was or oceans being parted.......

I read these words of Jesus Christ, understanding them for the first time after having read them for years, 'Who do you say I am?'

 

Josh, you do realize that any form taxation is spreading the wealth. That is true of McCain's tax plan or no change to the tax plan. The fact that the govt. takes in taxes and spends that money is spreading the wealth.

The difference is who is the beneficiary of that spending, or tax cuts.

 

hypothetical: i find the qur'an to be more truthful. does that mean i'm being misled - you know, not reading the bible, because one is more truthful than the other?

 

That sounds like a problem to say that you have to put your mind in the right state so that it makes sense. If it makes sense shouldn't it be obvious without having to put your mind into a particular state?

 

I prefer The Epic of Gilgamesh from a purely literary perspective, though Genesis incorporated much of the better parts into it's narrative.

 

I prefer the Fable of Gargamel or The Vulgate of St. Jerome.

 

do you serve Jesus Christ? or does Jesus Christ serve you?

 

I totally agree with you that early Genesis is great. You can't go wrong with either Seconds Out, Selling England By the Pound, or A Trick of the Tail. Later Genesis is merely okay, though, although We Can't Dance did have its moments of brilliance.

 

The scariest part of Obama's tax plan: slaughtering 20 million of his own countrymen, signing a non-aggression pact with Nazi Germany and renaming Washnigton DC "Obamagrad."

 

You know. I think I've figure it out.

killer instinct is RON ARTEST! Joined in July. I mean, right?

 

So the choices are either you are servant to Jesus or master of Jesus?

 

yes...

 

I can't tell if you're kidding... but Clutch confirmed Artest's username in the GARM. It's "Artest Music." Seriously.


No really.






(In case you, or anyone, hadn't heard.)


Carry on with the Party talk, comrades.

 

Really? That's a cool moniker, if true!
