tkhayes 348 #176 February 26, 2011 QuoteSo you're saying that science has produced a tool that can look into the future and prove that the way things are today will continue to be that way in the future? As far as I know, nobody out there can guarantee that water will boil at 212 F tomorrow or in 100 years. It's faith that lets us believe that our measurements like that will continue to be reliable. If it's not faith (one definition being confidence or trust in a person or thing), then what is it? that is about the lamest, self-serving definition of faith I have ever read......'guarantees of water boiling' come from faith? wow - try the dictionary instead how 'bout? Quotenoun 1 complete trust or confidence in someone or something : this restores one's faith in politicians. 2 strong belief in God or in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual apprehension rather than proof. • a system of religious belief : the Christian faith. • a strongly held belief or theory : the faith that life will expand until it fills the universe. PHRASES break (or keep) faith be disloyal (or loyal) : an attempt to make us break faith with our customers. ORIGIN Middle English : from Old French feid, from Latin fides. it don't mention science anywhere in there I am afraid..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jclalor 12 #178 March 4, 2011 QuoteHow people interpret and apply God to their lives is a different topic. Is this how you apply God in your life? by sending pm's like the one below to people you dislike. Was I suppose to feel threatened? does this make you feel like a tough guy?

Coreece 190 #180 March 4, 2011 QuoteIs this how you apply God in your life? I've been waiting for that...you're so predictable. What took you so long? The fact is that is me not applying God in my life. That's what happens when a zealous Christian backslides to the point of questioning his own personal faith and commitment. I'm essentially seperated from God and fill that hellish void with alcohol, gambling, women and anything else I can grab onto to ease the pain. It's similar to any broken relationship. I'm basically experiencing a taste of hell and that void is the worst thing I've ever experienced. I can only describe it as that feeling you get it the pit of your stomach when you are missing a child or you see your precious wife banging some dude raw and multiplying that by 1000. I now have a better understanding of the following: 2 Peter 2:18-22 For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by appealing to the lustful desires of the flesh, they entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error. They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity—for “people are slaves to whatever has mastered them.” If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them. Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,” and, “A sow that is washed returns to her wallowing in the mud.” Now, wether I am the one who has turned his back completely or am the one escaping from error remains to be seen. I have faith that God will carry me through this... QuoteWas I suppose to feel threatened? No, it expressed how I felt when you attacked the classyness of several posters after you posted a picture of Jesus having anal intercourse with himself. If you want to continue playing the "who is the bigger hypocrite" game, fine...I really don't care. I know my apology won't mean anything to you, but sorry for disturbing you. I know I can be a prick and get under people's skin.

Yes, It's fascinating to see how easily I can acknowledge my folly, yet you are so oblivious to your own. It's always been a hobby of mine to see so many people like you and Chris pointing out every flaw in a christian's life and accusing them of falling short of christian principles not realizing that everytime you you do that, you are validating christian virtue. You obviously recognize the principles as virtuous and condemn christians for not walking the walk but don't realize that you yourselves don't even live up to those impossible expectations. So many non-belivers view chriastianity as moralistic which it is not. I can't really blame them though - most believers in the world adopt a legalistic view of christianity. It's like everyone is so oblivious to the dangers of moralism and legalism found in scripture.

tkhayes 348 #198 March 5, 2011 QuoteHow people interpret and apply God to their lives is a different topic. I'm sorry if that was your experience. It would be great if everyone had their own interpretation but much of the Christian church faith is based upon how someone ELSE interprets and applies God to their lives. That's why they call them "preachers". And most churches preach that there is only ONE interpretation (usually theirs), and if you wander outside of that, you are probably damned to hell. Can't decide which version is correct so you are all on the same page? Or better yet, everyone has there own interpretation, so everyone is then damned to hell since God says there is only one GOD, and any others are false. (Exodus, Daniel, Matthew and Deuteronomy) paradoxical at the very least and hypocritical at the worst. Glad it works in your life - keep it the fuck away from my life. And my government.
