Unforgivable Sin - Poll
October 4, 2013 at 8:37 pm
Hi Folks,

I am a former Christian that still gets scared about this one sin. Of all the other religons I dont care or know about I'm not worried. But since Christianity is in the culture I am in (Western) obviously I will add more weight to it.

Anyway. For other de-converts and people searching for answers.

Can you answer:

Have you ever committed the Unforgivable Sin? Are you worried about eternal damnation? If you think you have what is it you said!

Cheers,
Rants and Raves from an Ex-Christian http://walkofthemonkeyman.blogspot.co.uk/

Sin is going against the expressed will of god. Seeing as no god as ever expressed his/her will, it is impossible for me to sin.

To me it's like speaking against leprechauns. I don't run around saying "fuck leprechauns" but I don't have any problem, nor fear to say "fuck leprechauns". Fuck em and fuck holy spirit. There, I done it. Where can I get my cookie?

Ummm...
I really am a virgin and the holy spirit fucked me hard twice getting me pregnant. Worship me. And fuck him because he doesn't pay for daycare.

There. Now I have.
But for real...
If there was a god that would do that... Punish you for eternity because you were meany to him, would you worship him?

I'd join the other team. Satan seems like the good guy in the story if you ask me.

That's a fun word.
I smite. He smote. He shall have been smitten.

I don't think Jebus ever really said what the "unforgivable " sin was.
The church made up the definition, I think ... I could be wrong.

I thought the only unforgivable sin was wearing whites after labor day.

Show me book chapter and verse that says 'speaking against the holy Spirit' is the unforgivable sin.
