That hard drive was acting in a suggestive manner.

Whether or not one believes in God, I think we may just have witnessed a sign of the coming apocalypse.

Good point, so we need to get prepared with all our food/resources. And of course water. The body cannot survive without water and hydration.

Lol, don't give me that look Elmo. Do you believe in God yourself? I would hope so.

 

[UKMikey]

I think you've missed the point of what I wrote, somewhat.

The post of mine you quoted was a joke about being surprised about someone replying after being away from the forum for two years.

Does he? See the spoiler (there's some censored but heavy stuff in this spoiler):

That doesn't seem like someone who believes in God to me. Elmo has been radicalized.

Why?

 

[TB]

This is the only god I would accept Elmo believing in.

 

[Chris30]

Very true point TB.

If you believe in god then you may as well believe in goblins, fairies at the bottom of your garden and also them weird little trolls that seem to reside under bridges bizarrely

 

[Chris30]

Well goblins, trolls and monsters are far worse than that. God/and the universe can destroy them and any creature though with his powers.

What powers?

Also, that being the case, why even would he create them in the first place?

Same reason he created Trump? 🤔

Ah. No.



And it's a tragedy that Christians aren't as persecuted as they purport to be.

If I ever met up with him I'd be one black person that he'd be better off avoiding and I'm sure I'm not alone.

 

[McLaren]

At this rate, I'd be reminding my kids to avoid Christians b/c of their hypocrisy.

 

[05XR8]

I’d be having the talk with him about has he really accepted Jesus with talk like that. Doesn’t align with the God I know and the Jesus I accepted that died for us all.

“Christian white parent”. What the damn hell? Keep dividing all peoples while subtracting the love God requires of us by multiplying these false teachings and continuously adding human misunderstanding.

adultery

Is that the regular definition of adultery or the incandescently stupid one-off definition @TRLWNC7396 gave to explain away the bible's lacking any explicit prohibition on child rape even as consensual homosexual intercourse is both explicitly prohibited, requiring execution of offenders, and de facto prohibited by the restriction of marriage to heterosexual couples of indeterminate age difference and the prohibition of sexual intercourse out of wedlock? Main reason I ask is because it turning out that Webbon is a child rapist among the other things listed would be very nearly the least surprising thing ever.

Not really sure. This testimony by his fellow church elders mentions his sin of "fornication with a congregant" so it could just be sex out of wedlock. I guess I was reaching with the adultery thing. I can't find any evidence of his being a child rapist.

Strangely, those three cookie buttons is how I find many people treat religion 🙁
