Well, I guess it simply boils down to the day when you face the truth you can tell Jesus it was just his opinion.

But I don't believe any of that stuff. So I don't believe it simply boils down to what you happen to guess it boils down to.

Why are you a weak Christian Dive?

What other "weak Christians" do you feel you have encountered in this community, aside from divegeester?

Dive has not yet explained what he means by 'weak Christian', a term he used to describe his 30 years of Christianity.

This doesn't answer my question. I asked you what other "weak Christians" do you feel you have encountered in this community, aside from him?

Do you know what a weak Christian is?
I don't want to assume, nor define it the wrong way, which is why I am patiently waiting for a proper definition.

You yourself have called him a weak Christian more times than I can remember. Who else here do you feel is a weak Christian?

Okay then.....why weak?

Maybe you don't even know.

I called him a fake Christian.

It is not my place to judge.

Is saying 'you are a fake Christian' to a Christian not a judgement you are passing?

It could just be an opinion. In the same way that you refer to Dive's God as a 'superstitious god figure' that you don't believe in, but are 'happy' for Dive that he needs such a 'god figure' to provide meaning in his life.

Just an opinion.

Just an opinion.

So what you're trying to say here is it's an "opinion" and therefore somehow not a "judgement"?

Not really. It is not my place to judge, but if I have judged in the past, well...I was wrong, and must own it.

No I don't. I never have. People who believe in supernatural causality are superstitious. That's why I used the word "superstitious". And I have never said anything like the Christian God is superstitious. Religious people are "superstitious". For me to claim a god figure is superstitious, I'd have to believe in that god figure. You seem to have been completely missing the point.
