Yep, I don't think I would traipse all over the arid ...[text shortened]... Him, and Blessed is He who believes in the Christ and has not seen Him! He loves all of us!
He loves all of us!

Then I am sure it will grieve Him to no end when He willingly tosses me in the "Lake of Fire".

He does it because he loves you. Kinda like when a loving father burns his child with cigarettes for lying. The kid is a sinful, wicked creature and so obviously deserves it. Besides, cigarette burns are nothing compared to what God is going to do with him later. At least, cigarette burns stop.

A more apt description would be intellectual mastrubation.

At least in this "cess pool," you are the undisputed authority on the subject.

Good night, and good luck.

I'd really love for your last post to have a grammatical error in it -- it would be so preciously
ironic -- so, please, don't post again so I can relish this.

Minutiae is the plural, Mr 'Pseudo-Intellectual.

When you're ready to discard your security blanket and really discuss what Scripture says,
you'll find me a willing participant.

Toodles!

Maybe powershaker's God stole a few pages from the White Trash Parenting Guide on how to learn your young'uns some manners.

Now, now, children. Do we always have to chew each other's heads off about the slightest piece of... meh... whatever? Ivanhoe might be right about his wolf-pack, (and three -- or is it four -- against one is really not fair), but I'm still left speechless at the little spirituality shown in this forum.* Can't we just grow up, folks?!



*Disclaimer: I readily admit that I'm not above it all and have sometimes lost my head and posted something I regret later.

Are you serious? Cig burn for lying...Damn, that is worse than Eye for an Eye.
Thank you for solidifying my belief.

Yep. You got the imagery perfectly -- God picking a hapless struggling victim up by the ears and giggling maniacally as He tosses him into a giant fire.

Considering who the post is addressed to and what sort of statements that person has been know to make, LJ has a point.

Perhaps I've not been considerate, but what type of statements are you talking about?

He doesn't post much in spirituality anymore. Seems to be mostly the evangelical line -- repent, turn to Christ, etc, etc.
