I am not suggesting that you be mean to him by attacking his persona, even if that is what you yourself endeavour to do to countless other posters on thread after thread. I am more interested in whether you are able to rebut the 'eternal torture' version of Christianity he is espousing here.
you have been dodging - FMF
More quotations to hide behind. There is no mistaking your apparent sincerity. . . . - FMF
Instead of trolling, deflecting and attention seeking? - Divesgeester
Your unintelligent procrastination responses betray you. - Divesgeester
All comments levelled not at the issue of 'eternal torment', but against the persona of GB, actions for which I want no part. Now of course I have been vociferous in my condemnation of some contributors and their doctrines but its my prerogative who I choose to oppose and who I dont. GB has been nothing but civil to me while others have been nothing but mean spirited so if I repay kindness with kindness and meanness with force, is it not justice? I find the whole pack mentality of ganging up on individuals most distasteful.

Lets take a look shall we dear FMF...

After not a single word of substantial on-top comment in 15 pages of this thread, robbie has weighed in with a few trademark ad hominems. Grampy Bobby has been copy pasting walls of text here ~ some of it non-sequitur or unrelated, vast swathes of it re-copied twice or even three times, and none of it backed up by proper efforts to discuss any of it on his part ~ about the meaning of Revelation and he has been extrapolating some truly bizarre and ghastly ideas from it. And robbie has shown no interest.
Originally posted by FMFIndeed I am at a loss to understand what interest the doctrines of Christianity should be to someone who has wholeheartedly rejected them.

You are fully entitled to be "at a loss to understand" any human environment that is not in fact populated by the little cardboard cut outs you seem to always think in terms of.
Originally posted by robbie carrobie to divegeesterWhy don't you want to discuss any of Grampy Bobby's "scriptural references on the matter"?
If you have produced any scriptural references on the matter then please point me in their direction and ill be happy to discuss them.
Originally posted by FMFGee thats bitter, so you have an interest in doctrines you have personally wholeheartedly rejected because your immediate and extended family are Christians. Why dont you ask them?
