Christians, prove your minds aren't molested by fear.

[Mystical]

I'm sorry, I don't understand. Bear with me.

I get that you're not afraid of any of those things. In similar style I'm unbothered about frost giants. I can see where there is no reason for you to NOT do those things.

What I don't understand is why you WOULD do those things. The positive as opposed to the absence of negative. Is it to assert your freedom in some way?

You, on the other hand, have not been brought up with fear of a frosty hell if you don't believe in frost giants. You haven't been made to fear frost demons in your waking and sleeping consciousness. Frost god is not prevalent in every part of your brain as being a see'er of all things, a knower of your thoughts and intentions, an arbiter of eternal judgement on your life, actions, and thoughts. The tendrils of the frost god have not overtaken your entire body and mind.
If he had, and you realized frost god was just a figment of someone's imagination, but you were still afraid of frost god: you'd want to prove to yourself that frost god doesn't exist. You'd flip him off and see if he made you into an ice sculpture. You'd tell the frost demons to do everything you'd been made afraid they would do, and wait and see if it was true. When nothing happened, you'd get angry. You'd want to irreparably break ties with frost god in your heart and using his own ridiculous notion of an unforgivable sin-- would just about do it.

Any questions?

Oh I see what you did there! Clever lad you are!
I guess this thread is a pile of croc! Oh my, I'm such a halfwit. Hee hee. But I'm still going to walk on the gold pavement hands locked with good old Jesus, that silly mutt, right? Cause that's all that really matters to me anyhow.

Maybe you're too thick for the subject matter.

Alice: You can learn a lot of things from the flowers... Huh! Seems to me they could learn a few things about manners!
