If you are a member of a religion and one of your members does something
wrong, the the religion is to blame. If atheist does something wrong, then
only the individual is to blame. This is a very common attitude among the
atheists. Get used to it.

They have been enlightened by another intelligence, the Holy Spirit.

that's why they are so mental? i dont think so, writhing around on church floors, dont

Not always Rob.
Years ago I visited a church while driving cross country. Right away I knew this place was different. EVERYONE was speaking in tongues. The whole service was conducted in tongues including the sermon. Occasionally I would ask someone near me what was said. Often they would interpret for me. it was a moving experience to say the least.
One of these days I want to go back to Las Asambleas de Dios.

mmm, there is one glaring and fatal flaw to your statement, when the first century
christians spoke in tongues, they spoke specific languages, not some gobbledygook
consisting of a white noise, you might want to look at the account in the book of
acts, if you dont believe me.

Your tellin me!!

I knew this guy who came around our church. He wore a "camels hair" garment that was secured with a leather belt. His diet was mainly locusts and wild honey. He did not socialize much with people and was seen running around telling people to repent that the kingdom of God was at hand. In fact, some said he must have a demon.

But then I awoke and realized I was dreaming about John the Baptist again. 😛

I knew it!! 😠

I guess it all makes sense now. They breed like rabbits because many don't believe in contraception and abortion and think life is "sacred" which contributes to more carbon footprints here on earth. They like to travel around the world in missions trying to spread the "good news", in carbon burning planes and cars. I even heard that the vast majority of those who are religious even enjoy eating beans.......and we all know the what the "end" result is with this bit of news.
