Bullying is making threats in order to intimidate or manipulate. Perry made a thinly-veiled threat to Greg that the Christian God would get him somehow after he dies.
that was my understanding also. You know I often question as to why those who think that they are so fanatically religious can speak for their God, don't you think that their God is capable of speaking for himself and if so why would he need one of his fanatical followers to put words in his mouth, that makes absolutely no sense to me, but then again I'm not a believer in that particular Christian religion. Guess that makes me a heathen savage....lol
It's no secret that quite a few of God's self-appointed human representatives are of dubious integrity. We see deliberate ignorance of science, deliberate use of common logical fallacies, using fear and threats to bully people into accepting their theological position, etc.
What's going on? I would expect a perfect and holy God to have better employees here on earth. Maybe God needs to do a better job when screening applicants to be his mouthpieces.
Many are saved some are not. Some are young or misunderstood. People take time to mature from deceptions and bigotry they have due to being guillable or not knowing. Not all are bad, not nearly all. All who believe on and wait for Jesus are saved, and will mature into a great person.

well Katzpur knowing that you are LDS and assuming that you are well versed in that religion it is understood that Joseph Smith did not think that the Songs of Solomon was inspired enough to be included in the Mormon version of their sacred book, so I guess that it's my understanding that is why there are only 65 books in your sacred book. Now if I'm wrong, I do apologize for the misunderstanding.
There is no "Mormon version" of the Bible. We use the KJV.
The christian god is a dubious character lacking integrity, so why would his self-appointed representatives be any different?
God is a good god just misunderstood. So exactly are his followers. How is the christian God a dubious character lacking integrity? Most of the stories in the bible are not to be taken literally they are stories designed to build character and morality. It's all in how one reacts to those stories.
