This is a split thread in the ~Elsewhere~ Forum. Try creating a new thread in a more active forum, more appropriate to your goals.

For example, since you wish to discuss your religion, maybe General Religious Discussion would be a good place for a new thread intended to discuss the religious topics you seek to learn about.

This is the Internet Infidels, it's a generally non-religious community, and I doubt you will find people here who are asking searching questions about faith, or who are looking to find a religious belief to claim. Your post seemed to indicate that you aren't here to ask the atheists anything, but instead to tell us stuff, which could be why no one has taken you up on your offer of "telling you our misgivings so you can show us the light."

I hope my friendly suggestions are useful to you and your participation in this primarily nonreligious community.

Agnostic Theist

"I am blind and have no limbs"

"Of course you have limbs, you're walking and carrying a stick"

"Well, how am I to know that?! I'm blind, I cannot see them!"

Maybe when you stop relying on faith you'll see your limbs and stop leaning on your gods.

Hi V7. I will try to help you too! I am a schoolteacher, so here goes:

You don't seem to speak American quite correctly.

There should be a comma here.

You mean 21 years old? Or you have been white for 21 years? Then you need a period and to say "I":

Period, not comma. What about your grandmothers?


Capital T.

Born in deep south Tex. Period, or period and comma:

It seems Texas English education is not all it should be. Did you go to a public school or private Xtian school? Did you graduate hs?

English. Capital E. Or do you mean USA citizen (Texas being in the US, not England)?

Do you mean, "I'm curious why it is so hard for people to be able to understand my posts?" Because your syntax is so bad, you see.

.

If you say so...

I have no idea what you mean by this.

Again, poor sentence structure. Hard to get your meaning.

Perhaps, in going back to school, or at least a good library, you will learn to better express yourself and get to know some people when/while you do!

I wrote that post when I was drunk... I can't tell if your were being sarcastic, oh well..

I've just destroyed the entire principle on Atheist belief...


If there were no God, we would not be discussing God today..

Fire away at your refutes. They won't stand up to the word of the Almighty.

He who dwells in the shelter of the most high rest in the shadow of the Almighty.


If there were no God and the El-Shaddai, the Rose of Sharon and the Bright and Morning Star did not rise on the third day prophecy and roll the stone away, the christians would have no faith and reason to preach..

Good luck.. the entire Atheist world just got slammed.

Blaspheme all you want, the insults that fall on me fall on God also.

DISSIDENT AGGRESSOR

Blaspheme? I fail to see how answering your post on why do you feel like you've had a conversation with me before as blasphemy.
People usually charge blasphemy when they are angry with something someone has said, you know when that person hits a nerve.
Being I don't frequent other boards on the internet if you feel you had a conversation with me it would have to be we met before... seeing I haven't been to Texas in over twenty years [you would've been around one at the time] I assumed you may have come to PCB, Fl. You claim to be Christian and I provided the examples of others who claim to be Christian, sorry if it sounds like blasphemey to you!

This is the rest of your post it is basicaly incoherent if you do wish to understand my veiws I'd be more than happy to tell you, but be warned you are going to find them very hard to accept, I can tell by previous posts that you are very sensitive to anyone questioning your point of veiw.
Lighten up, while your still young

If Mohammed were not God's prophet, and Islam were not God's true teaching, then the Muslims would have no faith and no reason to preach.

Please respond to this argument in a way that does not also apply to your own. The fact that a religion has adherents, and that its adherents believe in it, does not mean that it is true.

You said that you have "monstrous and supernatural faith," and that you were planning on converting all and sundry. You portrayed skeptics and nonbelievers as though they were wicked little gnomes out to drag you into the "spiritual mud," and boasted that no matter what we said, you'd never change your mind.

In other words, you've decided what to believe in. Anything we say that conflicts with that will be ignored. You hold "faith" up as a virtue. What "faith" means is belief, regardless of evidence. So you've asked us for evidence while stating up front that you take pride in your ability to ignore it.

I think it's silly. It leads either to the fundamentalist viewpoint that all humans are inherently wicked and that a few of us not going to hell for eternity is more than we have a right to expect of God, or to the meaningless new-agey tautology that God is the source of everything good about humans. It certainly doesn't make a lot of sense in the light of alleged "free will" humans are meant to have to choose good or evil.
