The moment you stop assuming that you have to "fill people in" your posts will become that much less inane.
Quote:Your analogy only repersented 1/2 of what is being discussed. If that is all you understand fine, but do not take offence when it is corrected to include the whole biblical account.No, my analogy represented the entirety of the reality of the scenario. You don't get my farm just because I ate your apple.
Quote: what I want in this story (I playing the role of satan) is control over your Heart and your mind. What you own is of little concern unless it can be used to help control or direct you.You're playing satan as ineptly as satan plays satan in your little fairy tale. Blundering idiot aside the triumphant hero.
Quote:Good. Now maybe start building a biblicaly consistant picture of God and finish tearing down the one you have been carring around with you. (The one you have found to be untrue.)What I've found to be untrue is the very notion of god, surely this has to be apparent to you by now. You could weave any story you like around a god and it won't alter my opinion of gods - unless the story you wove was rooted in reality, not your hymnal, not your fantasies. Get that through your head.
Quote:Then you have lived a life without sin? For everytime you sin you eat another 'apple.' Remember Adam's sin was not physicaly eating an apple it was disobeying God. Which is exactly what you do each and everytime you sin.Yeah, just like everyone else, what with sin being made up bullshit - part and parcel with the made up god shit.
Quote:I can see through it now, and even so with this ablity to see what God would expect me to endure, (Death on the cross and maybe even more) and what satan offered, it is still a temptation one that I do not know I would be able to resist.If that's how you see yourself then so be it. Apparently I just don't find the same things to be tempting.
Quote:Then that is between you and God to reconsile. Because i can not make you see love where love abounds. Maybe God has harden your heart to love till you humble yourself and ask to see it.There is no reconciliation to be had on that count. Love does not abound in bloody sympathetic magic. I find that my heart is very quick to love, so if god's attempted to harden it, he failed there as fantastically as he failed in his "gift".
