Since beginning to post the Lord graciously has place love in my heart to those to deny Him. People say I am preaching but I am sharing with you what I find to be true, what I believe, what I live for, and a desire to share this with those who reject the notion of God.
I resent it when you claim to speak for god. Unless I get to cross examine Him, please keep your hearsay to yourself. I have no problem if you wish to go on about what you believe and why you believe it, but I find your open proselytizing as offensive and as it is condescending. No one here accepts your authority as god's mouthpiece.
I enjoy interacting with intelligent and self-reflective theists about their point of view. But that sort of individual would never press on about the details their belief once they understand I don't share them. What they would do is look for common ground. You haven't shown any vulnerability or self-reflection in what you've shared, just off-the-shelf biblical inanities. So I do regard you as a simpleton and I am not the least bit interested in your opinions. If this is the best you can do, I can offer you none of the respect I've shown to any of the more developed theists who have come through here.

Fuck that. I have even less respect for the mangled, screwed up conception of god you've managed to put together. But I can't very well insult your creation.
