BIG DIFFERENCE. You should read it sometimes.
Idolatry. It's a collection of books of differing types written over millennia by people seeking to explain God within the context in which they lived.

It"s not to be made equal to God and worshiped.

You are EXACTLY talking about religion.

Your childish threats do not frighten me. I am good with my God and don't feel the need to justify myself to some self-appointed shmoe on a message board.

Enroll in an adult-education course and get your high school equivalency. You may then learn to understand more of the world than you do at present.

I have no idea what to what prayer you refer.

And I yours. I don't care what label you attach to yourself, if you're truly interested in the truth, explore some more in that topic, because you barely scratched the surface. Peace

I am not into your labeling thing to begin with, which was the point. I don't pursue knowledge to bolster my rationale for hating people that I don't know because they are part of some group or other. I know firsthand what damage that type of thinking does.

Now you're in trouble, Trout. Hush Whisper is God's personal assistant, and s/he has access to the records. Black mark for you.

Therapists call this type of thinking "grandiosity".
