I agree, we do. And that has much more profound and far-reaching implications for all of us.

Logic and reason are 2 things you lose all sense of once you commit your self to so called bible based churches.

Come now let's reason "together" >>>>> saith the Lord

Feel it..your feelings are valid...but writing it to us all is not necessary, you know...set an example
to stupid atheists...ooops, kidding...to those wonderful atheists. LOL...gotcha.

Actually atheists are using logic very much so...it is going beyond this little pea brain's logic of ours where
an experience of the Non-physical may happen.
You know, MissH, I don't think a single atheist has posted on this thread.

Trout isn't an atheist. But, yes, I think when BF refers to people who are "atheistic in their thought processes", he is referring to anyone that doesn't view the bible as the infallible "Word of God", or maybe doesn't believe in eternal hell, or some of the other "fundamentalist" doctrines. Which would mean you also have atheistic ways of thinking. So welcome to the club. We love ya.

OK..yeah. That doesn't make them look paranoid or hostile at all. That makes these forums a place where people really want to post. When people attack others for no reason at all. This kind of garbage is pathetic.




I came to this forum thinking we'd talk about Christianity...and all I see is a bunch of people just looking for a reason to attack the few Christians that actually DO post here.
Welcome to citydata, Christian subforum.

It has improved somewhat over the yrs.

Ups and downs of course. Alot of atheist have come to know the Lord in this forum. so don't go getting discouraged because of a few hecklers.

I hold to a view that God is God. He revealed himself in the Bible, and Jesus died on the cross for us. So...I'm not going to comment on what he is or isn't...but I am disappointed that apparently those that DON'T believe those things pretty much swarm on and attack anyone that does....on a "Christian" forum, no less.

The irony is that in one breath you bash the Bible, and in the next you actually paraphrase it.

You've been corrected on this many times, preacher. It's a forum for discussing Christianity.

There are many "Christian" forums online wherein naysayers and gadflies are quickly banned and the remaining brethren get to swap bible quotes, post in tongues and praise each other's testimonies.

I'm sure you'd be very happy joining one of them.

No, i reject your beliefs and man made doctrines in respect to the bible and reject that it is inerrant and infallible. I am not going to tip toe through the TULIP for you, i will call it for what it is.
