Huggies,
There is no love in your heart. You live a hypocritical life filled with lie after lie after lie. "Let me get them before they get me" is your motto. Clearly, YOU, the disillusioned, are nothing more than selfish and narcissistic. At every turn, you have violated your own faith and the Christian principles you claim to live by. You have relentlessly judged others. You have insulted, put down and used arrogance towards the members of this forum time and time again. You viciously target a select few members (me, for one) and continuously drag up the same quotes over and over and over again, trying desperately to prove a point. For someone claiming to be a Christian, you are quite the opposite. Let me assure you, no one here, except for the few religious folk that are still around, will ever agree with you. Far too many people think you are bat shit crazy, off your rocker and in desperate need of some sort of medication to help you with your psychosis or whatever it is that you seem to suffer from.
For the sake of your religion, stop talking. Stop chiming in on things because clearly, you cannot possibly claim to live as a Christian when your behavior, your words, your reaction to the simplest of questions shows that you are unable to adhere to whatever it means to be a Christian. You do little else here besides pass judgement on others. You repeatedly bully others on here through your perpetual and relentless use of quote mining. It would not surprise me one iota if you actually kept a log of quotes somewhere that you can quickly refer to. While other adults are capable of moving on to other discussions, you literally hang onto every thread and every post hoping to use it again and again and again in order to make a point. What is so sad about that is that the vast majority of the time, rather than engaging in meaningful discussions, you resort to this child-like behavior, which is comparable to throwing a temper tantrum because you didn't get your way.
I pity you. Not because of what you do here, but because you are not capable of reasonable or rational thought. For you it's either up or down. Black or white. There are no gray areas in your life. It's either all or nothing and that way of thinking simply isn't healthy - for anyone. You sir, are addicted to conflict. You are addicted to arguing and you are addicted to speaking the famous word salad argument.
I have several friends who are considered Progressive Christians. And you know what? It is an absolute PLEASURE discussing religion with them because they are some of the most open-minded Christians I know. Even when we disagree, they never resort to bashing someone else's opinions. They never have to spend an absurd amount of time dragging up posts from long ago that have nothing to do with the current discussion.
You, on the other hand, are just not capable of having such adult conversations. Every single thread you contribute to, always ends up in one of the following places:
1. Buried because you killed the thread with your endless circular arguments.
2. Killed because you managed to turn the thread into focusing entirely on YOU.
3. Taken so far off the original topic that it is pointless to even discuss it anymore.
4. Endless quote mining by you, over topics that had nothing to do with the original topic.
Have you not realized that the vast majority here are tired of your infantile tantrums and your predictability? Have you not realized that the vast majority here can't even take you seriously because you have developed for yourself, a negative image - one that quite honestly - no one gives a shit about? I think you have used up your time here. You have proven time and time again how ignorant you can be and how low you are willing to go in order to either change the subject, avoid answering a direct question, blameshift onto others for your shortcomings or prove someone wrong. Mostly, it's the last one. You have such a difficult time admitting when you are wrong, that you will literally spend way more time digging up quotes and taking the topic so far off track than you would if you just said - "Yeah I'm wrong about that. Thanks for the clarification."
You would probably earn "some" respect if you could just admit when you are wrong, understand that you aren't perfect and you stopped trying to play God to the members of this forum. Guess what? You. Are. Not. God. Period. If Jesus were real, he would be ashamed to associate with you because you are the farthest thing from what an example of living a "Christ-like" life should be.
