What I did say is that all the gospels tell us that Peter had a strong relationship with Christ upto that point where He faltered, as such he was well covered under the Agape Christ offers.(Because of the existing relationship.) Which means even though peter had a moment of weakness Grace was extended to him because once Covered by Agape that love is limitless.
Quote:Why on earth are you using it as an example then. What *would* support Boundless Agape is if Peter wasn't written as denying him in the first place there by placing his life in danger for the sake of his friend.Remember We do not have to offer Agape it is God who offers it to us. The verses from the end of the book of John prove. We know from that example, Peter's fullest expression of love results in Philia, yet he received Agape from Christ.
Quote:I find it alittle odd you wouldn't pick up on that but then what can I expect from a fundamentalists interpretation of love?Because you did not take the time to fully understand what it is you are arguing against.
Quote:5. A Christian misrepresenting someone words, shocking. Also rather sad you can't see the irony in that last statement.See if i did not smile at this i would be so distraught at the ignorance to your own hypocrisy in this comment, It would force me to have you own your own foolish attempt to misrepresent me.
How did you last post start?
"Drich's Guide to a good argument" If I am not mistaken.
The smile should say to you I see your huge mistake, but I am not going to make a big deal of it, but at the same time I want you to know that I see it, but decided to let it go with just a minor correction. Instead of making you look like an idiot for holding me to a standard that you obviously can not measure up to yourself.
That is unless you need a complete explanation and run down of each time I use that emoticon.
1. Wow, that went mysteriously missing huh?
2. "For I do not know what "Complete love" is, so i would not use that term." But you know what "Boundless Agape" is? You're talking out of your ass. The fact Christianity *stole* the word from the Greeks and then attempted to tweak its meaning only serves to make your arguement look all the more suspect. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agape
3 and 4. I understand your entire arguement has served only to justify the betrayl of friends and the cerimonial sacrifice of ones son. I think I understand your arguement more than you do and if this is what your interpretation of "love" or "agape" or whatever you're deciding to call it then I think I speak for everyone here when I say you and your fictional twat of a God can shove it.
5. I hold myself to a standard that is hard to obtain as do many of us, you hold yourself to a standard that requires nothing but blind obediance, dogma and barbarism. If my life should be spent pursuing my standard and not acheiving it then it is a small price to pay so that I am never making quite the ass of myself you are. I don't think I could misrepresent you if I tried and I really don't need an explaination as to your smiling, your entire arguement is based on a concept you obviously have no real idea about and when all is said and done a smile is all you have.
A smile, a grammatical error and nothing else but a stolen word from long since passed greek scholars who would no doubt be horrifyed to see what you have turned it into.
No, I don't think thats a standard I could ever quite convince myself to sink to. You've definitely outdone me there.
