How do such silly controversies become such huge disagreements?
PRIDEHow do such silly controversies become such huge disagreements?
I don't know if this is really silly, but i had a conflict over a statement i readed on a forum, that showed picture of galaxies and boldly told : "message to all theists: the universe doesn't revolve around you!!".
I got mad and told them that the world theism means nothing and you can't say "theists do this or that", that christianity doesn't revolve around man, that this was a childish and unfair insult, that science never proved faith in God to be wrong and never will.
There was a debate with insults, and at i also mocked them saying "Atheism: in the beginning there was nothing, and then it exploded" .
I was a bad christian. Even now i am not able to go there and apologize.
Silliest thing I've argued over is whether 7-Eleven is an Oklahoma owned company, or a Japanese owned company. I guess, another silly thing I argued over was the role of the Supreme Court in interpreting the constitution and making laws. Then again, Maybe the silliest thing I've argued over is rapture. I've also argued wheather Frank Dux is a fraud and whether the movie Blood Sport ever happened.
Okay, the list goes on and on and on and on. I argue over sill stuff all day long. But, the best point is,,,,,, It's all funny, and aside from me crushing peoples fantasy with truth, no one get's hurt.
May I ask you...why do you argue with people? To try to make them believe as you do? Does it make you frustrated when people do not believe as you do?
God bless.
Argue simply means a disagreement. If someone states something to me, such as, "The sky is not blue." I won't accept that as fact and will "argue" the point of the sky actually being blue. ..
And there is your problem!!! Did you not know that some people cannot see the colour blue and to their eyes the sky is not blue!
WK, you need to open your mind, be empathic, be compassionate and stop projecting your own experiences onto others, because many people view the world differently to you, but their view is not wrong, but you are wrong to try to push your own perspective onto others and not have empathy or compassion or understanding of different viewpoints.
You also need to respect people's rights to have their own beliefs and you need to humbly admit that you may be wrong about something and that you are not perfect and that you do not have perfect interpretation and perfect understanding of entire Scripture.
WK, come to Christ in humility and allow Jesus to help you grow.
God bless.
Once again, you're missing the point. Once again, you're not understanding what I'm saying. Once again, you're thinking I'm a certain way that I'm absolutely not.
Please! In the future, take extra time to read ALL of my post and take in the words. You haven't understood a single post I've made yet. However,,,,,,,,,, As I said, I will give you more patience. I'm more than happy to explain what I mean. However, I can't promise that I can convey my thoughts in a manor that you will comprehend. I mean this with all respect.
