    How many lies have you told?


    honesty is the best policy. also i dont give a fuck so i tell the truth.
    only time i 'lied' is in joking when it's obvious, and that doesn't count.

    Have you ever taken something that didn't belong to you?


    only download movies and tv shows.

    Blaspheme?


    that's bible shit. i'm ok with god.

    Lust?


    not really.

    anyways, i'm all about god but fuck religion. that's just man's way of doing their usual bullshit.
    also jesus was an alien.

    I like this sub-board without the religion. :-(

    yeah i've mentioned that they should use the religious sub a few times. normally i move a post and reply there but that never does any good to move stuff.

    I moved my reply to a message over into that echo but that is also the only traffic I have seen in it in a while. I am wondering if some
    sysops don't carry that one. Come to think of it, I bet I am not subscribed to it. Ooops.

    Okay - I'm subbed - attempted to make this reply 'there' - we'll
    see...

    So you have NEVER lied?

    Have you ever taken something that didn't belong to you?


    only download movies and tv shows.

    So is that a yes?

    Blaspheme?


    that's bible shit. i'm ok with god.

    Is that a no?

    Lust?


    not really.

    Not really... Hmm... Sounds like a yes to me.

    anyways, i'm all about god but fuck religion. that's just man's way of doing their usual bullshit. also jesus was an alien.

    "All about God" - can you elaborate?

    And would love to hear the explanation for "Jesus was an alien..."

    It worked.

    Rob said he doesn't like religion in the general sub and he makes the
    DOVENET rules. Jesus is not a license to harass people who don't want to
    hear it.

    Maybe we need a Christianity sub...

    The religion sub seems to be mostly empty so why create a new one?

    Here's where I can try cross posting with SLMR ... not really cross
    posting like Usenet, maybe there's a better word for it ...

    In the end, it comes down to whether you believe a claim made by another human being or not, and for me, I generally don't.

    Do you believe George Washington existed? Abraham Lincoln?

    Or another leader from your history that existed before
    photographs?


    There are multiple sources which all corroborate their existence. If
    they did not exist, there would be problems explaning our world.

    This is different to the Gods people have believed in, in which, if
    they did not exist, would not cause any explanatory problems.

    We have eyewitness accounts that corroborate the existence of Jesus
    the Christ. He claimed to BE God and said He would die and rise again
    after three days in the ground. He did this - again, eyewitness
    accounts corroborate this.

    If He managed to do this, then His claim of being God is legit.

    I'm not close minded, I have experienced things that defy e
    myself, but I need to see/experience something myself to believe.

    I dare say you believe a LOT of what you have been 'taught' to
    believe, even though you didn't see or experience it... :-) Most
    of us do.

    Not all of it. There are some things people say are true, which I know are not, and there are some things people say are not true, which I
    know are.

    As for things that I did not see, such as the Cambrian explosion, my adherence to that truth is as strong as it needs to be. The more doubt
    I have, or more specifically, the more the possibility that there is
    room that I am wrong, the less forceful I am with that belief.

    My point is though that you believe in a LOT of things that you have never personally seen. We as humans take the word of historical accounts all
    the time.

    Don't remember who started it, but personally Christianity filters
    all that I say and do. :-) Can't seperate it or 'compartmentalize'
    it. :-)

    It would be nice to keep the religious discussions on the religion subboard, since Digital Man was accomodating enough to create one.

    Yeah - I figured out how to make the replies there/here. :-)

    His house, his rules. Jesus is not a license to harass people who don't want to hear it.

    I sincerely hope no one has read any of my posts and thought I
    was trying to harass people.

    One man's evangelizing is another man's harassment.


    I don't think anyone else is forced to read or respond to mine.

    When the boss says they're in the wrong place it doesn't matter what we
    think.

    Not even Jesus could resurrect himself. The Father gave him life again.
    The Trinity doctrine is nonsense.

    John 1:18, 14:28, etc.

    Churches use the Bible, but add their own ideas to it. The church of
    Paul's time is hard to find today.

    To atheists it's all the same. They like to keep their distance.

    well you are new here and you don't need to speak for him.
