And we’re back to my question of how do you know what’s moral and how do you evaluate someone’s teaching as morally sound or not.

If your interest is genuine, take a look at the long, long conversation between KellyJay and me here Thread 192058.

That's right. I don't believe in your "Heaven and God" stuff. The number of references to that stuff doesn't take away from the moral resonance of other parts of the sermon.

<<That's right. I don't believe in your "Heaven and God" stuff.>>

And it’s not *my* “Heaven and God stuff.”

It’s Jesus Christ’s “Heaven and God stuff.”

You know, the one you think is such a great teacher.

I value some of the teachings that were attributed to him decades after his execution by the Romans.

The analogy is a dud. Limiting the choice to three options in C.S. Lewis's fatuous "argument" does not analogize with your car mechanic story.

Sure it does.

Maybe you can’t grasp that if you think someone’s crazy or a liar, it tarnishes everything else they say, especially when it comes to intangible things.

Well bully for you.

My interest is not genuine enough to read through a long thread of you asking your typical gazillion questions and claiming KellyJay is dodging more than half of them.

Who is asserting that Jesus is either crazy or a liar? You are all tangled up in C.S. Lewis' propaganda.

So be it.

<<Those who want to do the will of God will know that He came from God>>

And here’s the will of God the Father, according to Jesus Christ, which you consistently ignore:

“And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.”

(Matthew 6:40)

The devils believeth on him too... just like you.

You’re a lost soul, rajk999, still trying to earn his way into Heaven with your feeble efforts and your sins stinking up the joint.

You know nothing about me, tiger.

If someone insults me for no reason, sometimes I return fire, though more often than not I don’t.

Unlike you and rajk999, I don’t deliberately and intentionally harass people for no reason.

Sounds like this Roman guy is still living rent free in your head and still causing you all sorts of problems with your emotional and physical health.

I honestly think you should see a therapist and work out the trauma he put you through four years ago and the flashbacks and PTSD you’ve been suffering ever since.

And maybe see a gastroenterologist about the digestion and bowel problems that Roman guy saddled you with.

I’m sure it’s no fun when you’re riding the tube or in the middle of an important meeting and you can’t stop yourself from taking a dump in your pants.

Comedy gold.
