Proselytizing

[chasm]

Why not face the fact that I was right? I'm not saying there isn't positive, my point is that you said "I do not see the Bible as using scare tactics" and it clearly does.

lol

Because I do not equate the mentioning or stating of consequences as being "scare tactics". That is my position.

On the other hand, if it is your position that when one mentions a negative consequence to an action when explaining an issue (such as explaining that you should not murder because you will be executed), I can certainly understand your position.

That is a sleazy move that most Christians make when they are wrong. Just because the Bible does not say the exact words "scare tactics", that does not mean, under any circumstances, that the Bible doesn't use scare tactics. Spoiler alert: IT DOES!

"Such as explaining that you should not murder because you will be executed." That's another scare tactic.

And if you need to know, here's the definition of scare tactic:

Word: scare tactic
Part of Speech: n
Definition: the strategy of using fear to influence a person or persons reaction

The Bible has scare tactics. And you not admitting just makes me feel more right. Of course, I understand why you wouldn't want to admit it. You'd be proven wrong and then God wouldn't be so fluffy and loving anymore. That's cool. You know, we'll see how fluffy and loving God is when you go to hell for blatantly lying about what's in the Gospel's, of all things.
