I think what I have to say will not be well received by someone who is a JW for sure. When I use the word cult I am sure that is shocking.

That's just how our minds work. I don't know if intentional is the right word. Unless I am willing to agree with them I find it unavoidable.

Don't you expect people to get angry with you when you preach that God see them as unsaved? Do you really expect someone to fall to their knees and kiss your feet when you tell them of your God given knowledge? I'm pretty sure that's not they way it works Viz.

Since we are answering questions...so...do you consider JWs and Mormons your spiritual brothers and sisters as they believe they are serving the Christian God?

Isn't that what you're doing? You guys just keep telling us we're mean because we actually call people sinners!

I believe God commanded Christians to preach the Gospel. The Gospel actually involves telling people why we need a savior.

What's your excuse for posting offensive things?

Obviously, we believe different things. What do you think? Even the JW's and Mormons would agree that they are not brothers with each other. I once roomed with a guy that identified as a Mormon. He told me the quickest way to get rid of a JW at the door is to tell them you're a Mormon. His point was that the 2 just didn't mix. They were like oil and water.

You will have to point out exactly what I said that was offensive in order for me to answer that. I disagree that I am being offensive so I don't know what you expect me to say when you ask me:What's your excuse for posting offensive things? I realize it comes across as that and if you would be so kind as to not overgeneralize when you are talking to me that would help me out. Example:Hey, 8s, when you said xyz it comes across as...

You didn't say someone had to believe what you believed to be your brother only that they believed God's word. I am telling you that they believe God's word (the bible) so yes or no?

I suggest you work on your maturity as well as your apology skills. This is in no way an apology.

You should learn to develop more emotional maturity and knowledge when it comes to understanding our freedom of speech rights.

Taking offense by what others think is a sure sign that you need to work on yourself.

On that note this one is for you and Viz and any other oppressive mentality bible thumper.
You see the above as an arrogant know it all? Well I suppose a lack of knowledge immature person would view any knowledgeable person in this light.

You are claiming unequivocally to "state what God has said." I get that you believe that. I get that you think there is no way, no how, that you could be mistaken. But to be factual, (because faith is different than fact) you would need to say that you are stating what the Bible says. I know that to you, "what the Bible says" equals "what God says."

But you are choosing to believe those two are equal. If you say I am going to hell because I do not believe as you do, you can say that "God says so." But in reality, *you believe* that God has said so. You are choosing to believe a book that was recorded by human hands (you believe it to be God-breathed, but you have to have a huge amount of trust in the human editing processes through the centuries.) You are choosing to believe that God created a system wherein every single human is born depraved and deserving of hell, yet this God loves us beyond anything we could imagine.

I would hope that you believe that if I, as a parent, disciplined my children with years of torture for violating my standard, that I would be horrid, cruel, evil, and despicable. Yet you believe that God, whose love is supposed to be more perfect than our human level of love, disciplines the majority of his children with endless torture, yet you claim he is somehow worthy of praise. Why is there such a different definition of "love" for God than for humans? Shouldn't God's love look a whole lot more kind and compassionate than humans'? (And please don't tell me that God IS being compassionate by sending me to hell).

I have many more questions, but I will stop here for now.
