Let's stop pretending, even amongst professed Christians, casual sex is an accepted thing.

@Runtilmylegsdropoff What a legacy you have left here.

For you.

 

I wouldn't quite phrase it in those black and white antithetical terms. Take the picture of the old Jewish temple. You have in the outer court, the religions of mankind. At least they are groping their way forward. In the inner court, you have the Protestants [they could be moving both outward or inward... or stationary]. And you have the holy of holies, which is the one true Church.

 

That's kind of you, the chosen people of God, to allow the rabble even a glimpse of the temple.

 

Yes, you shant be banished to the wilderness, and the door remains open. Keep in mind, that what was once a legal form, is here an image to communicate a meaning. Much as the OT in its entirety was.

 

I don't know if a Catholic ever walked into a pharisee comparison quite so readily before....

 

Too bad it ain't the good ol' days...huh!

 

I'm quite happy being a rational thinker. I'm perfectly happy in the company of people like CS Lewis, GK Chesterton, Ravi Zacharias, Josh McDowell, and Greg Koukl. Like them, I am thankful to know that I'm saved by grace.

Enjoy your self-righteous pseudo-intellectualism. The avatar suits you well--Buzz was always the cocky one of the bunch. In the meantime, you're the newest addition to my growing Ignore list.

 

Pretty soon you'll click on a thread and there won't be anything there!

Man I'm glad I had a couple cognacs before I got on nofap this evening.

 

Empty of annoying, self-righteous comments from those who enjoy patting themselves on the back for their superior words and ways.

 

Sadly both Protestant and Catholics did lots of killing back in the "good ol'days". Thankfully now we just have to fear agreeing to disagree and of course SuperFan's ever growing Fortress of Ignoritude.

 

In the picture I can see 2 groups of baptised pagans.

Question: What if SuperFan ignores all people who disagree with him?
Answer: He will reach his paradise, and 2 or 3 people there untill the time there is an argument between them. Then they'll create separate paradises for each of them where they'll be able to win each discussion battle with themselves.

 

He won't need 2 or 3 others, for in a parody of the great Triune God Himself, his reason, will and ignorance will commune in contemplative bliss for eternity.

 

Question: What if SuperFan ignores porn some day?
Answer: Mr Porn isn't so touchy, he won't be ignoring SuperFan.

...But.... What if SuperFan ignores SuperFan some day???

 

Good one...will @SuperFan ignore function block out my quote?

Seriously though... I love you all, protestant, catholic, atheist, in between. We have so much more in common than not.

 

Couldn't agree more, brother.

 

Unfortunately, some people aren't touchy at all and don't want to ignore me.
They are Mr Porn with his best friend Mr Masturbator, additionally Mr Anger with his companion Mr Being Emotionally Hurt.... and some more. Why are they so patient with me??
I wish they were like SuperFan with his famous ignore button.

 

A good question. We all have the tendency to develop a persona... and then take it all too seriously. The error of egoism.

 

What do you people not understand about agnostic atheism? I am an agnostic atheist, that seems to shake some of you to your very core knowing such a thing exists but it does. If you don't want to believe me you can do your own research. There is no faith required in not believing in a god.

 

Take from Wikipedia:
,, Agnostic atheists are atheistic because they do not hold a belief in the existence of any deity and agnostic because they claim that the existence of a deity is either unknowable in principle or currently unknown in fact.,,
So if you don't know If God exits or not because it is unknowable or unknown then you must believe that He doesn't exist because nothing else can exist between to know and to believe logically. You either know something and don't have to believe or you believe something because you don't know.

Besides of this, on this thread wrote an atheist called Themadfapper. When I read what and with what respect to other people he writes and compare this with your vomits you voice then I can tell you that you are a catastrophe for atheists. If they all were like you nobody listened to them or trusted what they say.
So you are a friend of Christians because you show them what they could be like without their faith. You are very useful for us so stay here and vomit something more to disgrace and expose enemies of our church(es), my friend.

 

Ah. Ok. You're "agnostic atheist". Unfortunately, you don't represent it very well as shown by your insistence God does not exist.

The "agnostic" part implies God, or god, or something god-like, could exist, but "the existence of a deity is either unknowable in principle or currently unknown in fact."

By concluding absolutely a deity (God) does not exist (as you have) one leaves the comfortable, reasonable confines of we cannot know, into the faith-based, we know it to be untrue. Which, of course, the agnostic athiest doesn't. They merely believe it to be untrue. Hence, your level of certainty implies a strong faith.

So, now you know - You've created your own religious anti-religion.

BTW, nothing you've said comes remotely close to "shaking me to my core". Lol. Rather, it makes me a bit nostalgic for my high school days.
