LOL, yeah, but I was referring to Joepole and I forget who else, were arguing about what the meaning of "is" is.. or was that what makes a good argument or debate? Things have taken yet another turn. ![]() ![]() |

Well it wasn't exactly a difficult call. You can count on passion-and therefore controversy and strong discussion in three areas: Religion, Politics and Sports. It's why I don't discuss these things at work.

Agreed, only these three are the only things we talk about at work.... LOL, we have no women or minorities at work, but we do have various religions, candidates, and sports teams we all root for... Not a bad work place...

I find that these topics can be discussed peacefully if all parties don't take it to personally. I've been on religious forums before and members actually keep it impressively clean most of the time. They know how to give each other their due space.

I do not like your post either PIE ! You are attacking what I believe and being rude as you take a stand for Paganism. What is it you do believe ? Not using capital letters for one. "Christianity" ! The Bible makes is real clear what God thinks about Pagans and many of them were destroyed for their Pagan practices. If I slip up and crack on Pagans in your home get mad get rude what ever but when I crack on them in my home well you already know what will happen ![]() ![]()

< You are attacking what I believe >
Again where have I done that? < you take a stand for Paganism.> That's not saying I'm Pagan! <The Bible makes is real clear what God thinks about Pagans and many of them were destroyed for their Pagan practices> That's not attacking what Anime believes in?

It's this mentality of "I'm right, you're wrong" and I don't care what YOU say.
There are of course certain absolutes in this world. Then there are things that certain ones of us BELIEVE to be ABSOLUTES, with or without proof. That's where the whole 'faith' comes in.. Personally I can enjoy these types of debates, up to a point. Before they get hateful, before they turn into attacks. Not everyone is capable of having such debates. Personally, I believe on the 8th day, God created Rock 'n Roll ![]() The weekend is almost over, the weekend is too short.. Saints play.. it's do or die time...

Here's that old saying again: If you can't take the heat, don't make controversial posts- this IS a forum. That means there are other opinions here, that may not line up with yours. Why do people get upset over this? Because people don't agree with you? This is a "hot topic"- Deal with it, or dont! You keep calling others "ignorant", but dismissing others opinions is not going to give you credibility. These are peoples beliefs, and I think Paganism is incredibly stupid/wrong. You can call that an attack if you want, You dont have to like it- I have personally read many books on religion, yes that means different religions than mine, so calling me ignorant or uneducated on the subject is simply not correct. Anime, you even admitted that different traditions handle what you come back as differently, which one of you are right? can all of you be right? Do you NOT see how ridiculous that is?

To fight or quarrel !! Yes quite right. We all believe differently no problem. What I believe I am passionate about like Anime. NO problem. I will not back up from what I believe the Living God written Bible and Christ. Sorry Anime but Pagans are looked upon with contempt and many times were destroyed by the Israelites. I have read of your religion and many books on Druids too. No stranger to what IT is I am addressing. IT is Pagan worship not Anime or Pie or any other "person" NO it is the agenda I am writing of. I am sure I was a bit harsh sorry for that. I will say in light of comments I do know how to lay the sword down

Just one point - a person can be a part of any organized religion = Baptist, Mormon, Catholic, etc. That doesn't automatically make them a Christian. To be a "Christian" you have to live a life like Christ. You have to believe that He laid down his life for you - so you may have ETERNAL life. I know many people who are parts of churches both big and small and are headed strait to Hell. Not trying to be ugly, that is just the black and white of the situation. One has to accecpt the free gift of eternal salvation that God so generously gave to us through His Son - Jesus. So, no, Pie - not all of the above are considered Christian, unless they have asked Christ to come live in their hearts and be the Lord of their whole life. God's gift is open to all who will recieve it. All he wants is for the person to be his child. |

No, you don't. You have to simply believe that the Big J was the son of God and came to Earth to be killed for us. |
