LOL! Listen to this absurdity: because I stand for the opposite principles than ISIS I am like ISIS. It seems that you have much more in common with ISIS like you both hate gay people's right to marriage (if not even the mere existence of gays) and woman's rights.

perspective sport.. you have none. you were taught you were a good guy from birth and nothing you do so long as you hold on to western values can make you bad. in essence that make you 'good' because you live in a region where pop morality supports you. Now because you have never challenged or said I can not stand with popular morality it is wrong, that puts you in the same boat as a radicalized ISIS fighter or a 1930's german. Meaning with your current mind set if you were born in an isis rule area or in 1930 germany your value system would allow you to simply do what the crowd is doing, if ISIS rape murder steal, if German basically the white version of that.

You have no 'moral stability' you right and wrong are based on society.. So then what makes you think this society can not make mistakes? what makes you think this society hasn't already made huge mistakes? So why then haven't stand against your pop morality? that's right because you have no sense of true righteousness and you've been programed to do what ever society says without question. Just like the ISIS guys and just like the Nazis in germany.

Your constant bitching about "pop morality" only tells us that you;re frustrated with your own inability to meet it;s standards. Is it any wonder, then, that you long for somebody to play captain save-a-ho and scoop your terrible ass up and out of the mess you;ve created?

Ignoring your idiotic phrasing of the question..we don;t know..and that has nothing to do with plausibility..its a statement of fact.   The grand wizard, on the other hand, is just as plausible as it;s ever been..which is to say... not at all.

Seriously do you need me to connect all the dots really?

If God's word say God's Agape only covers eLove is patient and fkind; love gdoes not envy or boast; it his not arrogant or rude. It idoes not insist on its own way; it jis not irritable or resentful;2 it kdoes not rejoice at wrongdoing, but lrejoices with the truth. mLove bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never ends

then by assigning omnibenevolence where love is supposed to extend by all rhyme or reason, you misrepresent not only god but what Christianity is supposed to be about.

you are looking for a God that does not exist in an avenue you have created for yourself. That is why I ask you if God did come to you would you be able to recognise Him? If your god is a fool and can be manipulated into loving you no matter what you do then you will not understand or even to be able to identify an alpha and omega God.

While you are trying to figure out a way to trick your God Alpha and Omega has already moved on, because you are so far lost in your own amalgamation of a deity nothing God is willing to do for you will help you anyway.

Are you really that stupid?

I can move in and out of your society with easy further more I can also move in and out of far eastern societies with little difficulty as well, why? because I master pop cultures when I was 10. To me it is a "respect" game stupid people play. a game where you are supposed to just know and lay by the rules or someone gets butt hurt.

So in my time here and all the effort trying to get me kick from this site. how many times have i broken the rules? how many times have I used the rules to kick in the teeth of a meanie or bully? 

I know how to master and play with in the rules of popular culture. I also have the ability to identify evil in the same culture. Only an indoctrinated NAZI can not find evil in his own culture. All cultures have evil in them. to say you are better puts you at the bottom of the list.

you don't want in fear of being made a fool... your lack of understanding in your writing screams otherwise.

The irony in claiming that you can move in and out of "my culture" with ease being juxtaposed with all the shit you;ve been given here..in the same breath, like all irony, is lost on you.

I'm pretty sure that I know the meaning of the word 'all' even if you and Paul, apparently, do not.
