How Great Thou Aren't

RE: How Great Thou Aren't
Quote:
Godschild Wrote:@ Shell B
Yes we take Bibles into every area, just as you would preach there is no God to everyone you can.

Shell B Wrote:Assumptive much? I would do no such fucking thing. I have never once even mentioned god whilst volunteering and I have done a great deal of volunteering. I'm usually too busy actually doing things to stop and talk about fairy tales.

Vague and irresponsible because you replied the same as you accuse me of doing.

Godschild Wrote:The Southern Baptist Association works hard across the world to help those in need. We raise the money to take aid to all that we can, we realize that giving help to others is the most important thing we can do, this example comes from Christ's teachings and his actions and we do our best to follow this.

Shell B Wrote:Vague again.

That's because you do not care to find nor see the truth about what the SBA does. Let's make this easy for you go to the local SBA building in your area and request the missions works and you will receive plenty to read.

Godschild Wrote:We do not go into areas to be crutches,

Shell B Wrote:I would hope not. Cooked fettucine would make a better pair of crutches.

Right, thanks for confirming my point we are not crutches.

Godschild Wrote:We help to build schools and hospitals and give them the books, including the Bible, to help them educate themselves. We take medicines into areas and without government help.

Shell B Wrote:Where and when? Specifically.

Haiti, is just one example, this to is where I wanted to go on a mission trip to help children with AIDS.

Godschild Wrote:Some of our missionaries must raise their own support through local churches, they put themselves through school learning all they can of the new culture they will enter and the language of the peoples they will help. A great deal of our missionaries live near poverty to help others, they not only give of what they have, they give of who they are, loving, caring people that sacrificing their lives to improve the lives of others.

Shell B Wrote:I thought you were talking about missionaries. Thank you for proving my point.

What ridiculous gibberish is this, blind you must be if you can not see a description of christian missionaries.

Godschild Wrote:Yes we believe that God in their lives will be of a great help to them and why because we seen who lives are better when God is in a persons life.

Shell B Wrote:Oh, yes, it makes their lives much better. http://voices.yahoo.com/accusations-witc...tml?cat=34

People misuse teachings in many ways, from many different sources, people must learn that they are responsible for their own actions, these people are taught that they should never intertwine their old religion with christian teachings. You have stated that you have never read the Bible so I do not expect you to know this, when Paul was setting up churches in Corinth, Galatia and other places after he would move own there were those who wanted to make the church work the way they wanted so they could control the people, Paul revisited and wrote these churches about these wolves and ask the church to get rid of them, he would go into great detail about what was going wrong with the church and how it was not being the christian church God desired it to be. If you want to confirm what I'm stating then read about the two churches I mentioned by name, the books have the same names as I mentioned above. This is one of the reasons we teach the people to read where ever we go so that they can understand what God wants of them and not follow those who would deceive and control them for their own evil desires.

Godschild Wrote:Frankly I do not care what you want to believe about christians who do good for others or how we accomplish this work, as far as I'm concerned it's none of your business

Shell B Wrote:Suck a fart.

Sticks and stones, you are such a child, grow up.

Godschild Wrote:and our success rate is very good

Shell B Wrote:See above.

See above.

Godschild Wrote:No I've never been on a mission trip outside this country not that I haven't tried but things did not work out for that to happen.

Shell B Wrote:Yeah, it is so hard to leave. Too bad plenty of atheists manage. You better hop to it. You wouldn't want to have to make up more lies about atheists to soothe your guilty conscience.

Was not the leaving, things came about that stopped the trip, after that God had me doing other things. No guilty conscience, I was very disappointed and maybe one day it will be possible to go.

Godschild Wrote:I do how ever give of myself here to help those in need and because of it I have many new friends, I could not ask for a greater gift.

Shell B Wrote:What specifically have you done, you dodgy little fibber?

I've given time to help the youth of my church, paid for most of their activities because the church would not always help them. Worked with them outside of church functions to help them with problems in their lives. Setup all night on the phone with some trying to help them with problems, even though I had a tournament to fish the next day. Gave money to a single mother because she could not afford to buy a few Christmas presents for her two boys, told her that others in the church gave her the money that I was just delivering the money. Could not count how many times I've repaired heating and air conditioning units for those who could not afford to get them fixed, got a lot of good food for that, great cooks in my church. Many other things that would not be important to nonbelievers, to christians they meant a great deal. Could not count how many times I've been thanked for giving of my time to help others inside and outside the church. Took a young man to the hospital a couple of times even though I knew he was using the church for his own benefit. The toughest thing I did was sell my bass boat and give up tournament fishing to be able to work wit the kids at church, I real loved to fish, the kids however were much more important. Now I guess this is where you will take advantage of the info you asked for and tell me I bragging or that doesn't sound like much, if you find that a need, have your fun.


Godschild Wrote:Yea I'm one of those southern boys who has many guns and I have many friends who do

Shell B Wrote:And you just said that atheists are responsible for the guns. Could you be any more juvenile?

Know you are being stupid in your response, grow up, I never said atheist I said nonbelievers. Christians be they Southern or Yankees would not be gun runners. Do you really think because people like to shoot and hunt they want to make war, if you do you certainly need a reality check.

Godschild Wrote:none of use that are christians advocate giving guns to other countries, like I said that responsibility falls to the nonbelievers

Shell B Wrote:You are fucking retarded. You have to back up your stupid claims with reality. Atheists in the U.S. do not supply guns to foreign countries. Read something, for pity's sake.

As far as I know there are no stats on what atheist do, I do know this that the christians I know would not give or condone the giving of guns to other nations, in my personal opinion the non believing gunrunners and those in our government that do this are totally irresponsible.

Godschild Wrote:Yankees are just as responsible as anyone else.

Shell B Wrote:Oh my goodness. You really just said Yankees in reference to northerners.

You bet honey, actually since you did not get it let me make it clear, that was mostly pointed at you. Yankees was also in response to your "southern boys" sarcastic wording.

Godschild Wrote:we know better and that is better than the non believing community can say

Shell B Wrote:Ignorance is not bliss, GC. It is just ignorance. It means you have no fucking clue about the world outside of your bubble. You are, hands down, one of the most deluded and ignorant Christians to whom I have ever spoken. "Yankee" Christians would be embarrassed by you.

There are no Yankee christians, we are of the same family no matter where we live. It is you who is showing ignorance, you have no idea what I know about the world and what goes on in it, I look at the world as it really is and what I see even if I was not a christian is horrible, I take a look at the world through a christian view and a secular view. The reason for the secular view, I lived it for a long time, the two different lives I've live gives me IMO a better view of the world.

Godschild Wrote:so instead of spouting your sarcastic gibberish

Shell B Wrote:They're called words, not gibberish. I don't understand most algebra. That doesn't mean it does not make sense.

When your words become unreasonable and sarcastic by giving no thought to what you say, it's gibberish.

Godschild Wrote:You want to know where the real church is study the Baptist mission work and you will see where and what part of the real church is doing.

Shell B Wrote:Nope. You do not even understand how fucking stupid you sound. The "real" church? Bitch, you and billions of other people feel the same way. Nothing makes you special except your I.Q.

If you will not research then it is you who do not care to understand, all you care about is running down anyone and anything that you disagree with. Just so you know I do not believe you are very smart either.

Godschild Wrote:you need to get over your hatred and be thankful for what we do that is good, if for no other reason than the smiling faces throughout the world because of our contributions to people in need.

Shell B Wrote:I don't hate anyone, but, given the right circumstances, you could be the exception. I am thankful for good things that anyone does. I am not thankful for douchebags introducing Christianity into tribal or Muslim areas and then leaving them to sort out the chaotic aftermath the moment they start killing each other in the name of your god. Take responsibility for all of it, if you want responsibility for any of it. I say that with the utmost derision and contempt.

Your language does not support that statement, actually if we were to meet and have a discussion on whatever I do not believe you would make that an exception, but what do I know you are you and will do whatever your heart desires. As I stated above we teach responsibly and can not be held accountable for all the ill actions of others. In some cases it may be justified but that would be few.

Shell B Wrote:Could one of our computer savvy users design a translator that translates basic high school level English to stupid hick so this fuck can understand what I am saying?

Disclaimer: All of my insults form the base of my argument. You can't fight stupid by ignoring it.

I understand what you have to say even though most of it is gibberish, you should be thankful for hicks like me, we can look into your gibberish and see who you truly are.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
