    I'd hazard a guess, in this case, that it's because what you said was "Some have no belief system to challenge" but you didn't say who you were talking about which made it sound a bit passive aggressive. Just a guess.
    And a poor one at that.

    I don't have to draw a road map because certain people are so obsessed with themselves that they must verify I'm not talking about them. I'm not here to hold hands.

    It's too bad that self-awareness can be so fleeting.

    yes..all of them started because space aliens landed here and scared everyone. The original earthlings thought these ETs were GODS and worshiped them They didn't know any better ! All they knew was they came from the sky, which meant "heaven" to them.
    I suppose you were there as an eye witness.

    I think it's the other way around. The angels have been confused for ET's
    I think that would be closer to the truth.

    I'm a cardinal in the Universal Life Church Inc. of Salinas, got a tax identification number, all my revenues are now tax free, and I can assure you that I was not abducted by aliens.

    My sacraments are beer and pizza on Friday nights. There is no entry fee, but donations are accepted with thanks and are tax deductible. Wanna join my church?
    Upon what authority were you ordained?

    Why is your first question to me never about what I said, but always about who am I talking about?
    Well that’s not “always” the case as you claim.

    Without the “who” then the “what” in your assertion is nothing more than a generalised unsubstantiated strawman.

    You happen to know that mlb62 was ordained by the ULC?

    The ULC is not a Christian organization. Quite the opposite.

    In Biblical Christianity, ordination is by the Holy Spirit, and not by man.

    Something I'm certain you know nothing about.

    Err, your question was directed at Moonbus, not mlb62.

    I never said it was a Christian organization. You asked where I was ordained; I told you. Now you don't like it, or what?

    What's this got to do with mlb62?

    Do you think only Christians can be priests??

    What's there to like about an organization that poses as spiritual, but lacks the substance necessary for genuine faith.

    mlb62's OP sounds like your ULC. Thought there might be a connection.

    There are "priests" of all sorts, but there are only real ministers of the gospel of Jesus Christ, i.e. Holy Spirit ordained pastors and teachers.

    I'm talking about biblical Christianity. Not organizations developed for ecumenical feel good tax exemption purposes.

    But let's not go down that road. You can do whatever you like as long as it's legal. Just don't pretend it has anything to do with the real deal.

    Don't fret over it G.o.D!

    I know why I asked moonbus about mlb62.

    Btw, good to hear from you again, even though it all sounds the same as ever. 😉
