Hello, again, @L3astAmOngManyB13ss3d,
Well, that’s one way to walk through Life. With a block of cheese around your head.
Hey, guys and gals, I warned you. We can be kind to each other in here. Or... we can turn this into a “You are the devil!” contest.
In your first post you write, “We’re off to a rocky start” — over the idea that I would dare to question a single sentence, written from a most-of-it-burned-and-deleted, humanly-pieced-together, edited, overdubbed book that our Religion decrees (for its own money-grubbing and power-hungry reasons) that we are (to goosestep behind them) and what they have pieced together... at face value... as the Holy Word of God.
As if our Father in Heaven had come down from Heaven... to CNN studios (no, it would have probably been FOX-News)... and, in six days, had Hand-Written the entire thing... from Genesis to Revelation… while the cameras rolled continuously.
Okay, then, in your next post: your done with this room!
Then, in your next post, you write, “I like your personality and approach, easy, laid back.”
So, now, I presume, we are back to accusations?
What is driving you? After ALL this time of roaming the earth, have they settled into you to roost — of course, I mean the eight demons that Jesus hurled out of Mary Magdalene? Is it a Bi-Polar disorder? Did you forget to take your meds today or do you need an exorcism?
Am I to really to presume.. that ALL of that soup was directed at me?
You should test the Spirits (if you only knew how to do so).
If you truly are directing that pea-soup — that projectile vomit coming out of your mouth — at me, then you need to get on the playing field, beloved sister, and address the content. Do you remember the very first thing you wrote to me?
“☆First never assume a position you can not defend, you will be knocked flat.”
Our Father in Heaven, the Holy Spirit, Jesus, Jesus’ First Apostle (and right-hand man), the remaining eleven Apostles, Paul of Tarsus, David, Job and ALL of the Old Testament prophets (major and minor) are in PERFECT agreement that I am doing an outstanding job defending our position. You see, ALL of us are on Team Light. What Team are you on? Or perhaps I should ask, what drugs are you on?
I’m still standing, waiting for one of your weekend warriors to “knock me flat.”
I’ve reduced a lot of Word to print at this point. The record is solid and captured in stone. Go back and read every Word of every post I have written.
Exactly what lie are you accusing me of?
If you will remember, someone early on in here (right next to your initial post) asked me for my “credentials.” Remember that? I honestly told you... my one (and only) “credential.”
Because of my one credential, I knew something didn’t taste exactly right the first day I willingly, knowingly joined in (on my own accord without mom and dad dragging me) and took a big, healthy bite of Christianity. Although I have stuck it out for four decades now as a non-tithing, non-stationary, non-club-member (who is determined to learn), I have not spent good Time getting an AB nor a DD degree, a ThB, nor a ThM nor an AM degree in philosophy. Nor have I spent even more Time listening to Christian professors professing (quack, quack, quack) so I could get a ThD in Systematic Theology.
I have no... “diploma in seminary nor bible college!”
What I have done for the last forty years is listen to my Heavenly Father tell me exactly how to take this ridiculously large, manmade enchilada apart, piece by piece.
When I finally got it ALL tore down to its independent ingredients spread out on a bed sheet, like a mechanic dismantling an old LTD (except in my case it took forty years and the bed sheet was the size of ten football fields) the most shocking realization for me was not ALL the totally unnecessary stuff that had obviously been thrown in. No. What really turned my head sideways was the important stuff that has obviously been left out.
If you have been eating it for so long that you cannot taste what has been added, it would be difficult for you to even imagine what is missing. The more and more “mature” a Mature-Christian gets as he eats his way deeper and deeper into Christianity, the less apt he is to taste anything wrong with it at ALL. He has been eating it for so long, his nose already smells that way.
The wisdom and teaching of our “Faith” — supposedly based upon the words of Jesus — should stand the test of time and tutelage with no contradiction whatsoever. However, the “belief” system we have been taught is anything but entirely seamless, faultless and PERFECT.
One may certainly ask, what in this world is entirely seamless, faultless and PERFECT?
