    So you are frustrated that all people don't accept your personal belief system?

    Sounds like you have more in common with them than you think.

    Just because you believe the "God is at the top of the mountain and everyone is trying to get to him a different way" theory doesn't make it anymore true than the Baptist who believes that all people who don't believe Christ is the savior are going to spend eternity in hell. They believe they are obeying the word of God while you are believing a kumbaya theory.

    BTW, I'm a Baptist. I don't believe that my belief in God has relevance to anyone but me. I leave Heaven and Hell to God's judgment.

    And that right there is the reason for your fail...


    Yep. It makes sense though, I understand these things can be difficult to grasp given your condition.

    I find it amusing that someone who says that everyone can get to God would waste his time settling down on a "religion." What purpose does it serve? Why would you be a Baptist and believe in the doctrine that they subscribe to if you don't believe it actually matters one way or another?

    CONTEXT:

    PHRASES
    in context considered together with the surrounding words or circumstances : it is difficult now to view these masterpieces in context.
    out of context without the surrounding words or circumstances and so not fully understandable : comments that aides have long insisted were taken out of context

    LITERAL:
    1 taking words in their usual or most basic sense without metaphor or allegory : dreadful in its literal sense, full of dread.
    • free from exaggeration or distortion : you shouldn't take this as a literal record of events.
    • informal absolute (used to emphasize that a strong expression is deliberately chosen to convey one's feelings) : fifteen years of literal hell.
    2 (of a translation) representing the exact words of the original text.

    Straight out of the Mac Dictionary app. You can check.

    :confused: :confused: You seem a little slow today.

    Anyway, I know exactly where this is heading. I do not wish to derail this thread. See you around some other time when you start with another one of your pathetic and failed attempts to try and prove that all Muslims are evil.

    Good night.

    Young angry islamist, I appreciate your obsession with me. Keep up the good fight against the non-believer.

    I did not ask for a copy and paste job out of a dictionary.

    Rather, I was giving you an opportunity to explain these - and only because you specifically asked:

    What is there to be "taken out of context" regarding these quotes? They seem pretty crystal-clear to me.

    It is noted, however, that you are unable to explain them.

    Your inability to respond properly without accusations has been noted.

    The fact that that either you quoted partial verses, took one verse out of a chapter that was talking specifically about war, or some of the verses were misquoted.

    Please, do tell me where you got those quotes from.

    Wait, you just accused him of having a condition then you whine about him posting accusations?

    I didn't whine. I simply responded just like he would have.

    Is anyone surprised that ATW has turned yet another thread into an ALL OUT thread about anti-Islam/Muslim rhetoric? The day he turns a thread in the GARM into an anti-Islam/Muslim one is not far it seems. He almost managed to succeed in the NBA Dish recently.

    So now you are claiming that Trustme and I turned this thread into an "Anti Islamic Rhetoric" :confused:
