Christians forgive themselves
|
Yet another nonsense post by GC where he accuses others of not understanding Christianity but not explaining why he thinks that way.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

Apologies to another person are difficult, but getting absolution from jesus is easy and settles the christian mind. Do you have an example?

First, god/jesus is imaginary and any forgiving they are doing is solely in the christian's head. Secondly, if you had read the facebook post, you would have seen that she stated she had to "forgive herself."

Which is not an example of a forgiveness that originates from with in ones self. That why I asked if you had any example of the self forgiveness you identified, since your fb example was not an example of the self forgiveness you described, because again the girl accredited God for the forgiveness she allowed herself to have. So I ask again what else you got? (November 3, 2013 at 2:36 am)Drich Wrote: So I ask again what else you got? Do you really want to know, or are you merely being sarcastic, thinking you have already won? There is no winning when it comes to theistic stupidity. The only forgiveness is provided from one individual to another. It is called humanity. Giving that forgiveness the false name of "Jesus Sacrifice" merely makes you appear the loon.
