    Is it that they are, on some level, worried that if they [b]don't[/b ...[text shortened]... l their mythology-referencing condemnations just part of them trying to please their god figure?
    Funny you should make this thread. I have one in mind of a similar idea.

    I would like to see the Christians put their faith where their mouths are. Think about that, Christians boast of "Love God" "Love your neighbor as yourself" and where are you. Have I not tried to explain this very thing to all of you? The Christians (at least on this forum) are their own worst enemies.

    I will tell you, from what i see here, there are more non- Christians in Heaven than Christians.

    You can put the words 'trash' and 'talk' to one side if you need to ~ I don't mind ~ and then answer the question. I don't believe there is any such person or figure as "Satan". So when you declare that I am this character's "child", what is the point of doing that? Is it for your own benefit - the benefit of fellow Christians - the benefit of your god figure... who?

    Take it up with the big guy if you don't like it.
    You dodged the question.

    So, what is a child of God to you, and what is a child of satan? By the way, there are no children in hell.

    A child of Satan's opinion is without worth, unless one wants to defy God and go to hell.
    So the "Christians" who defy the teachings of God are what?

    You know there are no children in hell because...

    As for who is a child of Satan and who is a Child of God, the child of God agrees with God about what is right and wrong and forgives others so his or her sins can be forgiven.

    You don't have to agree with others about Satan. Just know that they rightfully give your beliefs as much validity as you give theirs.

    All we have is our trust in our saviour. I mean really, that's all we have. We can't make ourselves holy now can we?

    I put my faith in Jesus.

    You should read the Bible sometime. Jesus said some pretty harsh stuff to a few hypocrites.

    If you want nice read Dr. Suess.

    In need of a savior, this is your answer to what it takes to be a child of God. Well that is everyone in the world.

    What about having compassion for others - friends, enemies, others you don't know.
    Isn't having compassion part of what God seeks from us? And what of those who don't know God as you do? FMF has great compassion for others, do you think God is just going to forget him. "It doesn't matter, he didn't know my son; he never spoke my name; he didn't worship me on Sunday: blah, blah blah. " . So because of this you are saying, it is "to Hell with you" . You have become a self righteous Christian, and i shake the dust off my sandals to you.

    I don't expect you to agree with me that the stories your religion is underpinned by are a mythology. That's fine. And we can disagree about the use of the word superstitious if you want [although I simply take it to mean a belief in supernatural causality, don't you too?] but what is the point of you saying to me that I am supposedly a "child" of "Satan"? It's obviously not for my benefit. It's for someone else's. Whose?

    Obviously you do since you refused to see my exlanation as an explanation.

    Does God change? Does time and space have any meaning to God?

    Jesus says, "no one can go to the Father but through me" .

    Enoch and Elijah both went to Heaven. How did they know Jesus?
