You mean, because I cannot be like Jesus, nothing matters.
Killing people, harassing people, insulting people, doesn't matter, because I cannot be like Jesus.
The news is that noone expect you to be exactly like Jesus. But he who claims to be Christian should strive to be like him as much as possible. At the minimum listen of what he said about things. I am not christian, but many things Jesus said is good and worth living by. There are christians that thinks otherwise.

In other words, you are ok calling people 'numbnuts' or 'stupid', etc., for daring to disagree with you and such not caring such tactics have a well known ancient name: Ad hominem attacks, attack the person, so you think you will discredit the argument. Good luck with that tactic. It makes you look SO brilliant.

You know a lot about ad hominem attacks for you use them against me all the time.
Originally posted by RJHinds There could be two locations for the Garden of Eden. The original location when Adam and Eve were there and another location after the dividing of the land after the worldwide flood of Noah's day.
So why will you go this far with these people when you would not answer my question about Eden? You just blew me off with a "watch the video" cop-out answer.

I can't give you any better answer than the man on the video. I did not go there. I am only reporting the information. If you don't want to believe it, then that is fine with me, because I am not sure it is true. I never said it is true, but only that it could be for all I know. What else do you want me to tell you?

You have already told us that it just was a joke. You admit that Eden is not situated some 100 miles outside the coastline of Somalia, just a joke you said. And then you made fun of us that we believed you.
Why should we believe you when you are a self admitted joker?

Hummmm that's been suggested to RJH many times. So far? Not so much that I've seen for the better. But who knows, maybe he'll get it someday. Many have changed and he can too....

I never said I was just like Jesus. I have said many times that I am a miserable sinner deserving of eternal punishment.

And I see you bring on your own worse punishment. Great religion you have there that continually keeps men down in the dirt and lies to them how lowly and miserable and worthless they all are.
Wow, I would LOVE to be part of a religion that tells me I am a piece of shyte, I was BORN a piece of shyte and will die a piece of shyte unless I become a sycophant to a man made god.
Yessir, I can't WAIT to become part of that crowd.

You should look at it this way:
Even thought I am a piece of shyte, God loves me anyway.
