The good news, grow some thicker skin. You come into our house, with (admittedly) no intention of discussion or debating and throw out bible verses every other sentance. What did you expect?

Do you think we aren't aware of that text's existence?
Do you think that we haven't read it?
I assure you that most people here have read it... some actually studied it...
So... why go through the trouble of registering here and writing all that you have written and going through all the disrespectful treatment (in your mind)?
I was completely aware that many of you would have knowledge of the Bible.
If even one searcher was to question his hell bound path I would consider my time here a success.

Have you ever considered the possibility that your asinine proselytizing here may have had the opposite effect, turning more people off than on, thus scaring them away from your faith via your bad example, thus condemning them to eternal damnation? Think about it.

No, not for a second. It's not me who saves anyone.

So, to be clear: you came here to preach your gospel, without caring as to whether that preaching is at all convincing?
Well then, I, as a mod, must direct you to rule one of this forum, and inform you that such behavior is a breach of what you signed up for when you joined. Best put it aside, eh?

Could you satisfy my curiosity about a creationist question.
The world throngs with pathogenic bacteria and viruses. Things which kill people.
When were these creatures created? Because the creation of animals came before death. I understand why god would create animals designed to kill people before he decided people would have to die.
I don't know. I would say they probably came at the fall.
Thank you. So you think God created them after Adam was cast out of Eden?

You are aware that, in order "to question his hell bound path", this person must already accept that there is a hell, right?
And if the person accepts the existence of hell, then that person has already accepted the existence of a heaven and, at least, one god...
You are aware of this, are you not?
