Nope, to find the underlying truth one has to get past the story's literalism and their characters. Otherwise you are spreading intolerance and domination.

There will come a day when you'll beg him to allow you to retract that statement. Be it now or before him when it's too late for you.

I dont think any day will come when Matyas, etc. will have to beg to 'retract' any statement.

Because of the fact that you don't think, will that make it any less real?
When Matyas stands before him on that day. Will a statement like "Well dAlen said he didn't think....." hold any weight?
He won't have to do anything, nobody does. After witnessing first hand untold numbers of people who hold the same belief being unloaded into a lake of fire, it would tend to make one volunteer to change his train of thought. At that point it'll be too late.

By the way, how can anyone dare have the balls to say they know the divines ideology?

You have a book with some stories.
Originally posted by DemonicAngelZero
You integrate them into your ideology but until you can supply undeniable proof to convert the world (that is flawless, infallible and can NOT be denied by anyone no matter how strong a grip the devil has on them), it's not your place to tell anyone what the ideologies of god are.

You are man, not the divine himself.

Only the divine himself can say what his/her ideologies are.

(and saying it's all in the bible doesn't count. I already said that there are several interpretations to different passages and that in itself means that the interpretation of man is either flawed, or the book itself is flawed.)

You are not an angel either and if I remember right, they were the official Messengers of God (isn't that by definition what an angel is?)
Originally posted by DemonicAngelZero
You may believe the bible is flawless, and all that good stuff, but please don't treat it like fact because it's rather insulting to everyone else.

Christianity may very well be completely wrong or completely right, no one really knows for sure except the divine.

Everyone needs to stop this "better than you" bullsh*t and start showing some friggin respect to EVERYONE even if they don't believe what you believe.

You really should be a politician, because that is the same exact method you're using.

You are tryin to Dictate truth because to you, it is truth.

Have you been carried into heaven by angels and stood before the one true god yourself? Or do you have stories of others who have?
Originally posted by DemonicAngelZero
And I do place alot of importance in respect because.... face it, it's VERY possible no matter how much you hate it that christians COULD be wrong.
Originally posted by DemonicAngelZero
You can argue complain and b*tch as much as you want but it IS a possibility.
Originally posted by DemonicAngelZero
Yet you treat others as if they're beneath you by refusing this simple possibility.

most of the posts recently sound, basically, like rejected scripts from some B-grade meta/sci-fi movie.

By the way, I just had to mention that since I'm basically up against the Supreme arragance, Ego, And Self Rightiousness of Christianity, I'm ending my posts in this thread here. Like I said, these are works of true evil. Try living without ego, without arragance, with acceptance and love (no, not that tough love crap of beating someone into submission) and see if that doesn't feel closer to what a god of love would want.

i actually dont view judaism with near as much contempt as i do xianianty or islam. of the 3 it is the source, so to speak, and when the Ot is read without the "goggles" of xianity and what not its very easy to see how twisted the NT is in how it abuses the OT to try and "prove" a messiah. i feel that in some way Judaism is far closer to the source of it all than the other 2, and i will never disrespect judaism or the OT "per se".
