Sinced you asked so nice, I guess I will answer you. Smile

Christianity isn't of this world, it is of Heaven. You only enter Christianity through the spirit of grace. Wink

Grotto, you are the typical kind of person who has a radical conversion. Did you know that Paul was the one who persecuted the church and had Christians killed until he had an encounter with Christ. Then he became the leader of the church.

One time, I was working with a crew during the summer. A few of the guys hated me and one was going to beat me up. What happened was he ended up working with me and then gave his life to Christ. His whole life changed and affected everyone he knew. Not only did he not want to beat me up anymore, we became best friends.

Watch out Grotto, we could become friends.



Cool

nahh,,,, I would have no problem with slapping you upside the head with a 2 by 4 Laughing Wink

Religous people should be shunted off to labour camps until they regain their sanity.

As I have said many times before I support your right to worship as you wish/believe you should. It is only when you try to spout your crap to the world that I take offense.

The legions of christianity are staffed with the weakminded and weakwilled!

The communists do it and did it, yet communists still believe they have the right to press their beliefs on others while locking up people for believing differently. You don't like others professing their beliefs, but it seems you never cease to make known yours. You continue to force your views on others when you write them.

Too many have suffered in the past for simply being Christian to have you so lightly insult them and others who may believe differently from you.

Your statement abount putting christians in a labour camp was rather crass and I believe unworthy of some one of your intellect. Please consider your words.

Actually, if you read through this thread, you will see those are some of his nicer words. Laughing

This is what I feel with Grotto. There is an area of pain in which he is acting out of. Grotto, you don't think I hear from God so how about this. Do you want to see what he has to say about you? Maybe there are some good things he likes about you.

Good thing, otherwise I wouldn't have made it. Wink

Newton, Pascal, Galileo and a few others are those who walk in Heaven as we speak right now. Grotto, how little you know about God's wisdom.

You know what's so amazing about God's wisdom is that a child can understand it. God made it available that even a child can enter into the things of God. How delightfully wonderful is that? Imagine a Heaven where it's full of children's laughter. Imagine a place where love is the main theme. Where there is no war, where there is no hatred, where there is no racism and where there is no suffering. A place where everyone knows your name and they even like you.

stupid stupid stupid.

by your own words you say that children will not be accepted into your heaven unless they have accepted christ as their saviour.....not consider the BILLIONS of children on the planet that are not christian.....or the ones that die before they choose a religion.

Your idea of heaven is so wrong it makes me wince at the sheer stupidity of your statements. if there is a heaven and it is full of righteous aholes like yourself....I would prefer the company of anything else...of course I believe in re-incarnation...as life is energy and energy cannot be destroyed...only changed!

Naw. He's acting out of an area of thinking you're a knob.

I agree with him.

Now you will see why I disregarded it. You don't know me and it is generally so called "christians" who tell me to calm down.

That should tell you something right there 5 eagles. You are not a christian...you are a 'fanatic'...you arent rational and have overstepped your bounds.

Laughing are saying that christians suffering is still an ongoing thing?
Do you dare deny that any true persecution of christians happened thousands of years ago and that christianity has been on the other end of the stick since then?

I am sure that you could dig out tons of incidences throughout history showing suffering by some christians...usually ones who went elsewhere to force their beliefs on others...but other than them...no you cant.

As I have said before..worship as you will...believe what you want...the minute you take your beliefs and try to force them on others you have committed an act of aggression and evil.
