Originally posted by @fmf My reference to 'an intellect problem' was a reference to your intellect. You seem to me to be intellectually impaired.

Ah so you think that insulting my intellect is somehow a good reflection on you as a person?

I am insulting you when I call you a jerk. But I am not insulting you when I say I think you are intellectually impaired.
As for whether my 'jerk' insult hits the mark is up to onlookers to decide.
As for whether my "intellectually impaired" diagnosis is right, people can reread the psychological abuse and systematic emotional and intellectual deprivation that you yourself described in detail and which, you say, lasted for 24 years.
They can cross-reference it with the way you behave on this forum and decide for themselves.
I think everything I have posted on this web site stretching back over a decade provides a good reflection of the person I am.

Ah FMF is clearly upset about something, is it maybe the fact that I am not bothered by his cyberbullying antics?
Originally posted by @fmf Perhaps you've had your chain pulled. You should address your questions as to who owns the web site to the site's administrators, not me.
This is a claim that divegeester made. If you think he was lying or 'pulling my chain' fair enough.
Originally posted by @sonship Could you show me the word "afterlife" anywhere in the Bible ?
I do read of ZOE a Greek word for divine life.
And I do notice the term [b]resurrection.
Did you ever see the word "afterlife" there?[/b]
You are playing semantics again. You know full well what 'afterlife' means. In your alleged religion, you wake up in heaven to sing hosannas to your narcissistic god who requires sycophants forever, not what I would want in an afterlife.
Originally posted by @kellyjay Yea, like stealing, murder, honoring your parents and so on. The joy of those are denied you.
I agree that people shouldn't steal and murder.
Good parents deserve honor. Bad ones, not so much.
I was thinking more of the following prohibitions:
Looking on a woman to lust after her.
Having sex outside of marriage.
Coarse jesting.
Blasphemy.
Some of these can be taken too far. But the biblical reaction is usually outright prohibition, rather than moderation. Better to let people find a balance, I think.
