Right, lets add American Colonial and Early National history to the list of courses Micah needs to at least audit.
BRW, did you previouosly post here as KJVtrue?
The key words here are: "...i's not worth the chance!"
We have here another person so frightened of the unknown that she is willing to pretend that all the babaric, superstitious nonsense in the Bible must be excused and rationalized.
She feels "sorry for people who don't have Heaven to count on!!!!"
She's wasting her time.
She ought to feel sorry for herself, for Micah, and for the others who live in dread of a monster god ready to torture people for all eternity if they don't properly kiss his ass.
These are sad folks. Not to be hated -- just pitied.
First of all, I'm not frightned of anything unknown. I've made it my life's qwest to learn "The Truth" and I know Him and there is nothing to fear or rationalize or babble and foam at the mouth about like Mr. Apisa. And I make no excuses whatsoever about my faith, My God or His Word. In fact, I don't know one Christian who lives in dread. Most of us spend alot of time concerned about people like you because I don't believe you'll be quite so eloquently sarcastic and full of bile when you meet your maker face to face and whether or not you believe me doesn't matter one iota because you WILL meet Him face to face and you will have to answer for every word you've spoken, every deed you've done and every thought you ever had in your cold, black miserible little heart.
Ohhhh....my, my, my. How very unChristian like of you.
You are terrified of your god, Dono, and you goddam well better be if you believe in that pathetic, barbaric, cartoon god described in the Bible.
I doubt seriously if you could even convince your subconscious that you are not in dread of that monster -- so you ought not really even try to convince us of that.
But if you want to pretend that your terror is love -- do so. I'm sure that pretence makes the hypocrisy bearable.
I remember in the days leading up to the war in Iraq -- all the many Iraqis shown on television kissing pictures of Saddam Hussein and shouting to the world how much they "loved" him.
The didn't love Saddam -- they were in mortal dread of him.
And you folks don't love this god -- because your god makes Saddam look like an angel. And unlike Saddam, your god is always looking over your shoulder waiting for you to make a mistake.
Sorry you are so angry that I pity you, Dono -- but pity you I do.
