read my post again. He doesn't "need" me.
If that's the case, then why does he commission you to defend him if he doesn't need your help?

Read the Bible.
That's the kind of cop-out, bullshit, meaningless answer that will likely prompt NinJay to close and lock this thread.

I guess we should expect such answers, though, as you have clearly demonstrated that you do not have any real answers, just rhetoric, knee-jerk responses, and "nya-nya! gawd did so make everything!"

Oh, stop it. Read the book you claim oh-so-much knowledge of. God's Love prompts Christians to shout It from the rooftops.

Your claim that gawd "commissioned you to defend him" is 100 percent, unadulterated, untouched-by-human-hands, grade-A bullshit. You cannot cite the book, chapter, and verse of such a "commission" because it does not exist.

You're positive about that, are you?

Positive enough to stake your knowledge of the Bible on it? In other words, if you're wrong, you'll stop claiming to be an authority on the Bible?

Stop running off at the word processor, gawdman. Pony up with the scripture.

Again, gawdman, point out where such a claim was made.

Do we have a deal, or don't we? When I post it, are you done spouting about your self-proclaimedly endless wisdom of God's word?

You simply cannot give a straight answer to anything, can you.

1. Cough up the scripture that "commissions" you to "defend" gawd.
2. Cough up anywhere that I have "proclaimed endless wisdom" etc.

You can't.

Anyone can do 1.

a) Pick scripture
b) Claim interpretation

I'll take that as a "no, I don't wish to give up on my claims that I know the Bible better than most Believers. what I see as a bargaining chip. I will continue in these claims despite, yet again, whiffing horribly on a principle tenet of Christianity." I bet you wish you had thought of this dodge last week.
