These are the essentials. We do disagree with each other at times and that's okay because we could be wrong and the other right. Nevertheless what disagreements we have are not deal breakers with God, we stand firm in the salvation given to us through our faith and knowledge of Christ. Tub Tub said he wanted to see us fight, so he could be entertained, we'll let God deal with that one. We don't need to interfere with each other, we each have our own fights to fight with those who dislike and even hate what we stand for, and each of us stand strong, as Professor said we must be strong to stay here this long and we see that strength in each other. Thanks to my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ.

GC

What?!?! You're nuts if you think that! Repent!!! Or loose your salvation! You can't be a true Christian ™ if you think these things GC what is wrong with you? Your hurting my witness!!!

... And scene. You d-bags happy now? Can we move on to something else? Or are you guys still huffy and puffy because when we don't argue it takes away 1/3 of your goto anti theist arguments?

Really? Enough of you pious, holier-than-thou assholes sure ganged up on me as a kid trying to convince me that if I didn't drink their particular flavor of Kool-Aid I was gonna burn for eternity.

Please, spare me the "we don't gang up" bullshit.

We as the Christians on this board don't gang up. Matter of fact I have let many conversations go rather than drive home a point an do a victory lap at Let alone use another brother here to kick in teeth.

Where, pray tell, do you see an apology in there? Hell, you aren't even addressing the point that it you were wrong in your assertion that I AM is a description of gawd and that he still sounds like Popeye.

Matter of fact, on rare occasions you've shown enough intelligence to bail on the arguments in which you're getting your ass handed to you.

To many witnesses to see you going full-on bully.

We are long past the childhood part of our growth (where the antics of the playground are seen).

No, not drippy by himself, but many christers when gathered in a group around a lone non-believer. Were you even following the "ganging up" conversation or are you pulling it out of context like you christers like to do with buy-bull quotes?

From the antics I've seen from you christers here, the whole "grown-up" thing is a bit of a stretch.

You'd think that prof then we see numerous examples of people advocating belief in their invisible friends.

SOW, when I said "We" I thought it was sufficiently conveyed (within the context of this thread) that mature believers would follow the book better than children.
So you don't find what you hoped for with us HERE.

Pandaemonium (you do know the connotation of your user name is pan= all, demonium= demons, and I would think you don't believe in them, rather than referring to them), you will always see numerous examples of people advocating belief in their invisible friends, regardless of their stage of development.

Pandæmonium (Paradise Lost)

I'd have thought you of all people would be familiar with Milton, Prof.

The reason that I would like to see some disagreement among the Christians here has nothing to do with my desire to see them argue among themselves. I know that normal, everyday Christians do not agree with some of the things said by the Christians on this forum. When someone says something repulsive and the members of their group are so determined to project a united front that they don't speak out, it hurts the image of that particular group. For groups that want to win converts, it goes against their evangelical goals if potential new members believe that everyone in that religion agrees with something horrible that another member said.
