Re: Christian Science

I do think K99WARD means well

K99WARD
I was taught a Christians role is to point someone to Jesus by how they lived, what they said ,what they did, how they responded to life decisions, how they responded to lifes problems, how they relied on their relationship with God.

I dont think (although I probably havent done enough research) its the follower of Christ (Christians) role to convince, that role belongs to the holy spirit.

Point me to the post where I have not accepted YOUR opinion? You really should have a rider attached to your posts along the lines of 'my opinions are not my own they are based on selective passages from a book written a couple of thousand years ago'

Should I now point you to all the posts you make that totally ignore the counter argument.

I have no problem whatsoever with people believing in a supreme deity, in fact I kinda envy them their faith.

You however, are little more than the Christian version of a Muslim extremist. You are the kind of person that causes every single person who believes to be labelled as a 'God botherer'. You are the kind of person that caused inquisitions, pogroms and genocide. You, and people like you, are dangerous

I cannot see any post in this thread where anyone has portrayed you as an ogre.
Misguided, evangelical, deluded, a pain in the butt, unable to see anyone else's point of view, supercilious......all these have been levelled at you. I believe, with just cause. Nowhere has anyone called you an ogre.

As for your replies regarding our own life partnerships, well every partnership is different. In a partnership you have to accept that the other person will not always see your point of view. There has to be compromise, discussion and resolution.My partnership, my marriage would not have lasted for 47 years if there had not been a level of accord.
I am a strong personality, I retain that personality because it is part of what attracted my partner to me.
I have my own views, my own thoughts. These are accepted. My individuality is accepted.

I do not particularly want you to go away. I would like it if you would stop your preaching to an unreceptive audience .

O K . Quench my thirst for knowledge by enlightening me by giving an answer to my question .

To remind you .

You made this statement: " We are COMMANDED to tell the gospel. Nothing further is required of us."

What I want to know is whether you believe that Jesus requires nothing of his followers other than to tell the Gospel .

Yes we know.




"Pearls before swine" and "casting pearls" refer to a quotation from Matthew 7:6 in Jesus's Sermon on the Mount, implying that you should not put what is valuable in front of those who will reject the notion that it has value and furthermore that they will seek to diminish or destroy what you offer.
"Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces."
Pearls before swine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So you see even your Messiah gave advice about leaving us alone. Do yourself and us a favour, follow his advice for once.


Oink, Oink.

He already did and had a couple of posts removed, no doubt he'll be on a warning.
Why what has he done wrong? Many users have had posts removed, doesn't mean they all get banned.
If you don't like what he has to say then don't read this thread or anything he has to say.
The members who haven't enough self control to not reply to him only need to add him to their ignore list.

You are wasting your time asking him not to evade your questions. Religion is about faith, if you don't believe then you wont understand. I asume you are a non believer so why are you so bothered about what he believes in as long as his beliefs don't cause you harm?

Re: Christian Science

There! I told you that Neil was the sensible one but you all just ignored both him and me but if you want a kind of contest I will suggest a way. All those interested post what they think constitutes a Christian and I will mark your answers out of 10. If at the end of it all nobody gets any marks I will post the correct answer (with Neil's permission of course.)

If he is doing nothing wrong by coming on site and attempting to convert us, then we are doing nothing wrong by telling him he's talking bull.

Assume away whatever I/we are is formed by our beliefs (or lack of them), you are right he can't harm us but he does need to be told when he is interfering where he isn't wanted.
