RE: Ex-Christians
It doesn't necessarily speak of G-C anyway, he didn't say "all your brothers in Christ".

How about that!? I'm "saved", even though I no longer believe a single fucking word of it.
Then you simply handed your salvation back.

RE: Ex-Christians
Why would anyone who was "saved" want to do that?

Because they lost their faith...

RE: Ex-Christians
If they had been "saved" by an omnipotent being, why would they lose their faith?

I appreciate your comments thusfar but I would ask you how Gods omnipotence would have any bearing on one losing their faith.

Maybe not, but if God wants people to keep their faith, stay saved and be Christians, if what God wants is right and if he has the power to do what he wants, why wouldn't he give people the motivation required for that?

It doesn't matter how legitimate our story is or how identical it is to yours.
It's never good enough. Ask Frohole, Dick, Godspile or any of our local christards ... we weren't REAL CHRISTIANS simply because they say so.

Why bother proving the legitimacy of our conviction to a religion that would rather see us burn anyway?

Nope. not playing.

For Pete's sake I'm not asking you to "play"! It's a single freakin question with no follow up. I'm not answering anybody or making judgements about who was or was not a Christian. If you don't want to answer then fine. Makes no difference to me.

Calm the FUCK down. I answered your "single freakin question" the way I wanted to. Do I now have to answer your questions according to your proper standard of answer?

"Makes no difference to me."
Clearly it does. Otherwise you wouldn't be so butthurt by my simple response. Furthermore, you yourself said that you didn't know if anyone else had posted such a question. I was filling you on the back story of this debate that we've had over and over.

So once again ... calm the fuck down.

If being 'saved' was such a transcendent and great experience, why would anyone ever want to reject it?
