Default A flame-stirring Theist reply to a theist remark...

I really liked this reply on another board I read.

Replaced names with Theist1 and Theist2:

Quote:
I do understand how you feel, but let your faith be a personal one between you and the Lord Jesus Christ. People will always be people. The Holy Scripture talks about the heart being "deceitful and desparately wicked". So stick with Jesus and get to know him and you will not have to worry about wicked people.
Theist1
I am sticking with Jesus, best I can. And I am staying away from wicked people. Unfortunately, that has kept me out of church for some time now.
-Theist2

He also went on, in another reply, to state that he hangs around the atheists because he likes the refreshing honesty.

Were it not for previous discussions, I would accuse him of being an atheist sockpuppet.

I have to say, I have the same problem. I sometimes come over here to cool off after dealing with people who are too smug and self-righteous for my tastes.

Man, the worst I've ever seen you isn't a patch on the kinds of stuff I come here to get away from.
