    I think it says a lot about posters who want to be called 'Satan'.

    I can almost hear them, proud of themselves, boasting to their friends:

    "omg.... heheh.. get this.. i went into this Christian forum and started freaking them out.. and they were like "your satan".. fu.hu..hu..ck... so im totally freaking the shit out of them and like "Yaaaa I AM Satan biotch".. and they were all "go away satan""

    My apologies if I gave you the impression any of you were nearly as crapulent as Satan.
    I actually meant to compare the 'out of context' scripture usage to that of Televangelists.
    Sorry BlackGuard and AmandaN - but you were almost as clever as Televangelists.

    QuetzalcoatlWell said Arlia.
    This particular scripture describing 'every knee bowing' does not make any mention of 'Forced' actions and it does not imply a 'humility' being brought on people (as if they had 'lost' to Jesus')

    It only describes the end of our modern age, after Jesus defeats evil and not surprisingly everyone honours Jesus.

    A Curious thing:
    - Taking 'snippets' of scripture, out of their context is exactly what Satan did when he tempted Jesus.
    - Its a favourite technique of 'Anti-Bible' 'Atheism' websites.
    - Its used by Muslim apologists too
    BUT
    - Its also very popular to quote 'half a scripture' by Televangelists,
    Cults
    and what we sometimes call 'Fundies'.

    Got off topic a little bit - but thought it was interesting to point that out.



    That is rich. You compare me to Satan, and then get all uppity when I choose to take a lighthearted approach to responding to such a effed up dis.
    By the way, plumed serpent god of the Mayans, by posting individual verses, I was doing EXACTLY what everyone else had done previously....you just can't take it when the quote doesn't look good.
    Typical...pick and choose, attack and act surprised when you get a rise out of me. If I was the prince of darkness, I'd be over there freakin your coconut right now.

    As I clarified - I was not comparing you to Satan.
    Not even close.

    You were guilty (imo) of pulling half-sentences from scripture sentences, which were in no context at all.

    This is common in 'Holy Roller' type 'Networks' and used by their Televangelists all the time. They say things like "Upon the wings of Eagles.." or "Spare the Rod" ... really 'half-thoughts' ripped out of any context.

    So once again... you are nothing like Satan (even though Satan used that method once too).
    you are much more like Televangelists when you used that technique.

    Its not a big deal.
    Calm down and dont worry.. none of us are scared of you

    and I must say that I never thought to worry about scaring anyone. But now that you mention it, good, I am glad no one is that infantile.
    I reiterate, since you missed it the first time, I did the same thing and followed the same protocol as all the previous quoters. It is not like I went out and posted in a different format, no, I kept my post in line with all the previous ones.

    Sorry if I confused you, and I will try to stop giggling and calm down, okay?

    Too late, I am teetering on the brink of going berserk. Jumpin jehosephat, Jiminy cricket, Gosh dang it all, golly gee willikers. I am mad as a hatter, apoplectic, frothing and twitching.
    I am warning you, you better not do that, or I'll tell you not to do that again.

    Well, i truly don't know what to say... You can think what you want, but you're miles off.

    Maybe you should think of it from my point of view.. I don't believe in satan, so pretending to be him/it (regardless of where, be it a christian forum or down the local supermarket) is nothing more than a wee joke... You can read into it as much as you want, but it'll be a waste of time.

    Well, I think we have drifted off topic. Lets get back to the threads intended subject, God and homosexuality.
    I want to know why God would want a gay person to face ridicule, discrimination, and ostracization?
    That is mean. It is better, in my view, to look at what harm it would do you to accept and love them as is. What harm is in that? How does it affect you?
    I doesn't affect me at all, and the upside is that we have a much happier, psychological more secure segment of society. I see all +ves, and no -ves.
    So, what do we do?

    I think the most important thing to remember is that if god is real (which I don't believe he is, but this isn't about me), then he's the ultimate judge, jury and executioner?

    So what gives all the homophobes on this thread the right to, essentilly, play god, and deem homosexualy a sin? It's not up to you, it's up to god...

    So why not get off your high horse and pratice what you preech - live and let live?

    so wouldnt that make us, classing murder as sin, also playing god? so by that logic we should welcomely accept murder because its not up to us, its up to god..

    i do practise what i preach,the best that i can,sometimes i will make mistakes,but god loves me despite it,and i go adn put things right!
    yes it is up to god what is a sin and what is not!
    and the bible clearly states in the old and new testement that it is a sin,but despite the sin gods love still remains strong!

    murder is a sin,but like ALL sin murder is forgiven if the sinner asks fro forgiveness and goes to lead a different life

    And it harm none, do what you will.


    Murder and being gay are totally unrelated. How does being gay hurt anyone? I think that to connect the two, however indirectly, is wrong.

    I never said that murder was a sin... I don't believe in sin because I don't believe in evil.

    Death is a part of life, things need to die so that other things can live.. that goes for humans too.. now I'm not advocating that we should all go around murdering everyone else, but in some instances, such as assisted suicides, to help save someone from pain.

    The diffrence between murder and homosexualy is that homosexualty does not hurt anyone. Murder does. We need to build our own civilisation and rules, based on what we feel is right, with proof to back up our claims... not go around claiming that god said that homosexuality is wrong, therefore I'm going to force my own opinion onto you, and force you to stop being homosexual.
