Gotta Vent

[RErender]

When I come across God pushers here in this forum, which feels like home to me while I'm rendering, I feel like pushing back.

Easy, it's a discussion, point and counter point, simple as that. No pushing just discussion. If it bothers you so much why keep reading it? Curious,I think.

It's because of the Bible that we eat meat?

Not that we eat meat....but there IS a part in the bible that tells us to subject the "world"...And boy did we succeed... :P

Hey Craig,
i'm just wondering if your still watching your THREAD baby grow.......this could rival the 1.5 thread

HEHE.

Where's my glass of red

HeHe, Yup, still reading and still amazed. Maybe I could spur things along by bringing up the subject of alien encounters? Then I think I could beat the 1.5 thread.

gee. after seeing how this thread has become a theological arguement i believe that removing the signature was correct and the matter should have stayed dead.

Perhaps you're right, but it has distracted the forum from 1.5 release gossip. 13 days and counting.

In response to the original intent of this thread:

Matthew 5:10 - Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11 - Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

12 - Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

You all are in my prayers, always.

Jujubee 101 sayeth: "Stupid and stubborn are thee who think they are right when they may be wrong."

That's a 2-way street.

That's a 2-way street.

A common principal of Taoism (Yin Yang symbol for instance.) Where many fortune cookies get their material from. Harmony in polar opposites and combined as a whole - can't really be argued.

Wow! 8 pages....haven't checked this thread in a while.

So who's winning?

[DaForce]

that question alone could be the start of another 8 pages

Aaaah well, this is some read a few months afterwards.
In the spirit of reRender

would anyone care to elaborate further?
As i just realised this is ONLY christian religion discussion...

You'll have me hanged and skinned for reviving this, but hey, martyrdom is a gateway to heaven...

Elaborate how, pray tell?

Anybody read any of the "Left Behind" series by Timothy Leahy and Jerry Jenkins? I highly recommend them, good reads.

[studioDIM]

Ah Eric, i KNEW i could count on you.
I spotted you as a LIBERAL (caps needed) a while back, and reading through here i can see some oddities, in terms of coherence towards beliefs and approach to "truths".
Time for bed for me now, but keep it up.
I'll look for the E-Books of the guys, as i don't think they're published over here (you'll understand, with a POPE we DO have our literature on religious/theological matters...)

would anyone care to elaborate further?

What sort of further elaboration would you be looking for?

[studioDIM]

Any...
At a point we got into (mis)quoiting old and new testament paragraphs, i'd say if there was a muslim, buddhist, jew or other faith person to chime in and complete the process, it would be healthy
