mirror...no one can force anyone to do anything. even if a gun was at my head...i wouldn't believe in something else. there are people that may pretend to have changed but you can't force someone to change in their heart or mind. only you can change.

ok...maybe i'm just tired from being a human pin cushion today and knowing i'm going back for more. but if all someone has is to belittle, try to force things or argue about petty things in life (like what someone looks like, how someone talks etc) then you must have a pretty d@mn good life. i wish my sister could have that life where that's all she has to worry about. just think about priorities etc. not saying don't debate or you have to agree with everything.

AGAIN i am speaking to ALL sides. and if i have done this to anyone...please let me know.
flowerforyou I know that you can make someone pretend to be a particular religion but I dont know how you make 1/3 to 1/2 of the human race forcibly believe in Jesus Christ divinity.flowerforyou Thats why i was askingflowerforyou

Q."What's the difference between proseltyzing religious narcississts and terrorists? A. "You can negotiate with terrorists."


A little levity.

Think I'll save this one on my desktop.


laugh

Didn't you realize that most terrorists are killing in the name of Allah? Show me anything about Christians killing people in the name of God in the past 100 years. You are comparing a Jehovah's Witness showing up at someones door to a fanatic who kills believing it's a sure path to heaven. Wow.

i'm sorry if i don't understand what you are asking me. it's been a long day. if you are referring to my use of the word force.e...i'm referring to people that try to "shove their beliefs down throats". i don't think anyone should do that. it's a lack of respect as far as i am concerned. it is different (to me) in debates...anyone's belief is used to make their point. but (for example) that thread about the friend shoving her beliefs down the OP's throat after being asked to stop....that is disrespectful of the friend. that was why i gave the OP a scripture that maybe her friend would understand and might stop. but you can't make people change and if they can't respect you enough then walk away or fight....it's up to you

It's a "joke" with a flawed premise. Therefore it's not funny.

It's like saying "Who wants sugarfree candy? Who are these people?" ...diabetics? Sorry, it's just not funny.

That wars will be fought is a forgone conclusion.

That there will be more devastating wars in the future is undeniably incumbent upon nations to wage.

Not to mention the banal depravity that is in fashion.

And that Jesus words fall to the ground for want of bitterness has been happening for thousands of years.

But where jesus is, is where I am.

In the meantime, I am planning my winter of life with my august love and not intent upon changing the world that changes not.

I enjoy the natural world and sincere people.

I work with my hanbds and my mind for food, shelter and clothing and a bit of a hedge.

I have spent my life learning and continue to learn and share that where appropriate as suits my fortuities.

Whether or not anything changes, I will be given strength to endure it, come what may.

But for the life of me, the only line I draw in the sand is that Jesus Is Lord.

all else is sinking sand.

Nobody has lied about Christianity or Jesus' role in human history, except maybe you. You are simply ignorant of the truth or a liar yourself.


The OP of this thread is an outfight lie. It is not true that “One Solitary Life” had a greater affect on humanity than entire armies, kings, parliaments etc, all put together.

That is a lie my friend. And if you are blinded to the that fact that’s your problem. No need to call me a liar.

The fame of Christianity was not due to “One Solitary Life”. It was due in part to the fact that the life in question is associated with an entire well-established religion that existed for millennia before Jesus was ever born. And it’s also due in part to the fact that Kings, armies, parliament, etc,. all supported and proselytized this religion at the point of a sword or gun for the millennia that followed this supposedly “One Solitary Life”.

Jesus is just a one character within a whole religious dogma. In fact, Jesus would be totally meaningless without the character named Satan. Jesus stands on the shoulders of Satan. Without Satan Jesus would have no meaning. That’s a fact.

So it’s not “One Solitary Life” that is responsible for the effect this religion had on humanity. The whole religious dogma and the crusades, and everything else that goes with it is responsible for its effect on humanity.

You can delude yourself all you want.

There’s no reason to call me a liar for pointing out the truth to you. Just because you are afraid to accept truth.

Proselytizing lies are proselytizing lies.

If you can’t sell Jesus with truth why bother?

To lie about Christianity is to suggest that you feel that it has no merit based on the real truth.

Jesus is not Christianity. Here’s merely one character within an entire complex story. A story that was used as an excuse for more bloodshed and destruction over the millennia than good. In fact, most of it’s popularity came from it’s evil nature. The crusades, the burning of witches, it’s rebellious nature against intellectual inquiry and the pursuit of truth and knowledge.

Much of it’s fame is actually do to its evil deeds. Not to any “Solitary Life”.

If you’re going to be honest about it, at least own up to what made the religion famous.

Why lie about it, and then call other people liars when they point out the false nature of the proselytizing schemes?

That just discredits the religion all the more.

I just don’t see the point in lying for Jesus.

If you can’t sell the religion with truth haven’t you lost all hope?
