1100 times, eh? For shame!
Yes, the Bible does say that (John 3:16), but the National Enquirer says that
Elvis is alive and well and living in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Why should I believe
the Bible over the National Enquirer?
Yes, Christianity says that we are born into sin (BORN into it!) and only Jesus
can save us from it. What a terrible message to give to Jews, Hindus, Buddhists,
etc.

Jesus is the way the truth and the light no man goes to the father except through
me.... That is the most awesome message to give to Buddhists, Jews, and Muslims they
need Jesus. YOu can worship whoever you want but it better be Jesus. Or on the day of
the rapture Who will be laughing last? Come to Jesus while you still can.

Reminds me of a story that an attorney friend of mine told me about
encountering a relgious nut at DFW airport. As my friend was making
his way to his flight, the nut accosted him and asked: "Brother, have
you seen the Lord?" My friend replied: "Yeah, he's at gate 28, now
get the hell out of my way."

What's the "Westheimer Curve"? I've never heard that term. Is that
where Westheimer takes that small jog to enter the Montrose area from
the west, or is it where it turns southbound east of Montrose? I know
that area well, as we always hit the Magic Cauldron on Westheimer just
east of Montrose when we're there. I also love the leather-boy mural
on the bar across from Hollywood Video at Westheimer and Montrose.
I've always wanted to photograph it and send it out as a postcard to
my homophobic friends.
We always stay inside the loop (usually at one of the hotels near
Greenway Plaza) when we're down there, and Westheimer, Richmond, and
Alabama between Montrose and the Galleria, as well as West U., are our
normal stomping grounds. My fiance always has to hit a Randall's
Flagship for cheap Sushi (and occasionally Miyako on Kirby if we have
the cash), and we haunt many of the bookstores in the area. Even
though it's part of a chain, I really like the Alabama Book Stop
that's in the old movie theater.

Valeria, you're the reason that the founding fathers wanted separation of
church and state. I bet it just burns you up that you can't burn those
nasty Buddhists, Jews and Muslims like the "good old days." Take your
preaching to alt.christ or one of the dozens of religious newsgroups.

And just what makes you so sure that Jesus is the ONE WAY? So far,
I've seen very little physical proof of any of the folk tales in the
Bible being anything more than that. Just because you believe Jesus
is your savior, which is fine by me, does not negate or supercede the
beliefs of those who do not. Islam is quickly becoming the largest
religion in the world (if it's not already) - what makes them wrong
and you right? I'll tell you what - your belief. Hell, I can believe
the Earth is flat, doesn't make me right. Telling people they're
going to burn in hell because they don't subscribe to YOUR image of
Jesus isn't helping anyone come around to Christianity. For the
record, I am more or less and agnostic with some atheistic tendencies,
so you'll probably think I'm Satan incarnate, anyway - which would be
tough for me to buy as I don't believe in a Satan in the first place,
but that's another arguement. I think Jesus probably did exist, and
whether or not he was the son of God or God in an earthly form, I
don't know. But what I do know is that he had some pretty cool ideas
that the likes of you have perverted over nearly two millenia.

My favorite religious nut story actually happened right in front of
me. My dad was walking with me through Sky Harbor in Phoenix, when a
Moonie approached us. My dad said quietly, "I hate these
guys...watch." The young man approached, offered a flower, and my
father said VERY loudly, "$50 for a BLOWJOB? You have to be kidding!"

The Curve is the five-block stretch of Westheimer that angles west-southwest
from Yoakum out to Mulberry, at which point it turns once more westward.
I don't know what shape the block between Montrose and Yoakum was in last
Saturday night for the Gay Pride parade, because Dale and I never got farther
east than in front of the Wendy's -- which means we didn't get to see the
eight-foot mirrored disco ball hanging over the Westheimer/Montrose
intersection. (It would have been better than the stupid rings hanging over
just about every signaled intersection around the Galleria, the ones that look
like they were ripped off from the set of "Stargate".)

>I've always wanted to photograph it and send it out as a postcard to
>my homophobic friends.

You should get a shot of Mary's, at Westheimer and Waughcrest -- it's always
had an attention-getting paint job of one sort or another since I was
commuting to college through there back in the 1970s. (I got a chuckle out of
one of the summer regulars painted on the mirrored front: "Air Conditioning
-- it's 69 (degree sign) Inside!".)

I guess I'm getting old, but while I don't mind Bookstop being there, I miss
the old Alabama Theater. I was first exposed to The Rocky Horror Picture Show
there back when it was a Saturday night fixture.

I am sorry you feel this way. It is not my beliefs but the word of God that we must
follow. i am sorry you worship satan. But Jesus died on the cross for you 2000 years ago.
He is waiting to come into your heart. Jesus loves you with an everlasting love.
The word says Jesus is the way the truth the life no man goes to the father except by
him. And no Jesus is not a sick bastard He is the Son of God! Each time you call him that
or any other such name you are crucifying him afresh daily. I pray right now in Jesus
Holy Name that you come to him and allow him to be the Lord of your life.

You can worship Tinky Winky, for all I care -- but this is Usenet, and idiots
like you don't have a _right_ to clog this newsgroup with your crap, no matter
what you think your alleged deity tells you. You have the right to speak --
you DON'T have the right to force anyone else to listen to you. Do you want
to learn the basic details of ionet's AUP from painful experience? Then keep
acting like the quintessential idiot who claims to be "Christian", yet
apparently doesn't give a good goddamn about following that Jesus guy if it
gets in the way of spreading her mental disease.

There are religious newsgroups for your purpose, where you can preach as much
as your tiny little mind can stand. Get thee hence, or you'll only wish you
had to deal with pissed-off users in this newsgroup.

(Incidentally, you also don't show up in my mailbox -- that will guarantee
your ISP gets a definite complaint from here.)

And just where did Michael say that he worshiped Satan? Nowhere!!!!!

It is clear that you are nothing but a "false witness." I suggest you
re-read the Bible because Paul clearly states that those who repeatedly bear
false witness, as you appear to do, will not go to heaven. Before you set
yourself up to judge others, you better get your own spiritual life in order
or you'll be sharing hell with the rest of us.

Excuse me, but when did the "Founding Fathers" cease to be men? And
as for their views on the separation of Church and State, I suggest
you do some reading from the writings of James Madison, for starters.
Also, if you think that the "founding fathers" would have been
perfectly okay with a government-mandated religion, why did they not
set one up in the Constitution?

I get it now, everyone who is not 100% in agreement with you is a
Satanist, right? It's a rather bold assumption to think that the
people who are disagreeing with you aren't Christians themselves - not
all Christians think alike. If there was ever a type of person Jesus
did not need to speak in his name, it would be someone like you. BTW,
You aren't a member of the Westboro Baptist Church are you?

Lying again, I see. I no more worship Satan than you are a REAL Christian.
You may think you're fooling us by claiming to be a Christian, but Jesus
sees the hate in your heart. Re-read Paul and see what he has to say about
people who repeatedly bear false witness as you do -- he lumps them with
adulterers, murderers, and the lowest scum of humanity. Paul also says that
those who repeatedly bear false witness as you appear to do will not go to
heaven unless they change their ways. I strongly suggest you do some soul
searching about yourself and your so-called "Christian" behavior before you
try to judge others. You're soul is in grave danger.

I strongly suggest you read Ionet's acceptable use guidelines. You do not
have the right to post off-topic posts. Other people thought that they had
the right to flood this newsgroup with off-topic posts and they soon found
out that they didn't and lost their Internet accounts. Paranoid, so-called
"Christians" like you who repeatedly bear false witness (hint -- no one here
worships Satan -- unless you do which would explain why you feel the need to
repeatedly bear false witness) are unwelcome here.

Well, I dont want to start a flame war here, and I am not taking sides at
all....but, what would be considered on topic/off topic in ok.general?

Also, some people consider worshipping anything other than God (ie., buhdda) to
be worshipping a false God, hence satan in disguise.

And as far as paranoid is concerned....if Michael was approached by some drunk
rednecks who were shouting anti-homosexual rants at him, would his fear not be
a product of paranoia?

Next...<whew> what lifestyle or thought process does one need to be considred
"Christian" anyway? Does that mean they have to be perfect and sin-free?
Everyone is a sinner, Xtian or not. I know very few christians who sin as
often as I do, yet I still consider myself one.

Last but not least, what type of people ARE welcome in a newsgroup called
ok.general? I thought it would be anyone in Oklahoma with any general
interests. I didnt happen to see a requirements list on my way in. Is there a
FAQ I can read?

Michael....

Please forgive my use of your name in the post I qouted above. Although my
intentions were good in offering an example that the group could relate to, I
was inconsiderate and rude. If in the future I insult you concerning my views

This is my point. You have proven that Christians like yourself are a bunch of
extremist peons. You do not know when enough is enough. PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE
EXACTLY THE REASON THERE IS A SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE.

There

Read something besides the Bible for once. You do know why the Pilgrims came
over here in the first place, don't you? Or did they not teach you that in
Sunday school? It was to get away from religious zealots. Unfortunately you
are still here.

separation.

You are not just worshiping, you are being a pain in the ass. I don't remember
the Bible saying "go forth into the world and be a hemorrhoid."

You are so terrified of whatever is not taught in your Bible that you call such
things satan worshiping. Its because you do not have an argument, you do not
have any proof. All you can do is hope people retreat because of a knee jerk
reaction to the word satan. Don't get me wrong, I fully support your right to
go to church and worship the way you please. However, I know you wouldn't do
the same for me. Your post has nothing at all to do with this newsgroup.
LEAVE, go talk to people that really want to listen to your drivel. If you
ever come up with facts come back and we will talk. Now I am paying for this
online time, and don't want to deal with stupid people like yourself.

Actually, the Pilgrims came here so they would be free to be
religious zealots. The Pilgrims, actually followers of the so-called
Puritan religion, were far more extreme in their views than most of
the mainstream religions in Europe at the time. I would suspect that
someone like Valerie would feel right at home in the Massachusetts Bay
Colony of the 1600's, which permitted the death penalty for those
accused of "witchcraft" - and pretty much anyone else who wasn't
towing their line. The damn Pilgrims and the Massachusetts Bay Colony
are a perfect example of why we don't need another theocracy.

Christ then who do you worship. Are you hanging around the cross or are you on
the cross? I am not angry I am passionate there is a difference. if you would
like to see what we are all about why dont you come to one of our services that
we have on saturday night with our youth? i also have a cassette tape that I

The word says :I am the way the truth and the life NO man goes to the father but by me.
Jesus is the only way to heaven and to the father. NO other way. Islam did not die on the
cross for you, Muslim did not die on the cross for you. Buddhism did not die on the cross
for you 2000 years ago. IT was Jesus Christ the Son of God!
Any other religion is dead works. Read Genesis " In the beginning was the word and the

the word says Go into all the world and preach the gospel to the Jew first then to
the Greek. I have as much right to be here as you do. And the word also says If ye
be neither hot nor cold I will spew you out of my mouth. do you want to be spewed?
Do you want to remain lukewarm towards the things of God? I am just quoting the
word of God. Your words do not hurt me. I am crucified with Christ nevertheless I
live not I but Christ that lives in me. You betcha I am a zealot for Jesus HE is my
passion!!! He is my bridegroom. I am infatuated with Jesus. And there is no
separation of church and state. Come to Jesus before its too late. He died for you
2000 years ago. He is waiting to come into your heart.

The only beliefs that matter are the ones by Jesus Christ not me. I did not die
on the cross for you 2000 years ago. Jesus Christ did. He was the one whose back
was plowed until it looked like ribbons, his beard was pulled, a crown of thorns
was placed on his head his head bleeding. he was the one who was spat upon. he
was the one who died on the cross and was stabbed through with a sword. He is
the one who went to Hell to take the keys of death, hell and the grave for you!
Not I. You are not touching me with your words you are hurting Jesus Christ who
lives inside me. Jesus loves you with an everlasting love.

Try looking through those trees for that forest there, Valerie. It
is the very notion of separation of church and state that gives you
the freedom to worship as you choose. What religious nuts like you
always fail to acknowledge is that the separation ideal works both
ways - just as one religion cannot force itself to be mandated by the
government, the government cannot interfere with religion. Church and
state must be separate in order for you to have freedom of religion.
Once the government begins to step in and say which religions can be
practiced and which cannot - then not only has the separation been
breached, but the very idea of having the freedom to worship is in
jeopardy. While I'm sure you have no problems with Rep. Bob Barr's
move to ban the practice of Wicca for military bases, many religious
leaders do. They see it as a breach of that wall and they know that
once the precedent has been set by the government that they can decide
what is and is not an acceptable religion, it's just a matter of time
before ANY religion may face the same scrutiny.
While you say that YOU aren't calling for a government-mandated
religion, I'm sure it would be fine with you if everyone was in
lock-step behind your religion - that has been clear by the tone of
your posts from the beginning. Let me ask you these questions - are
you in favor of the proposal to place the ten commandments in schools?
Are you in favor of a government-approved prayer in schools? If the
answer to either of these is yes, then you DO support the government
mandating religion.

Again, that's what you believe. There is no proof that anything in
the Bible is true other than one believing it is so. You got people
running around claiming they saw Elvis at Burger King last week, and
they're totally convinced that what they saw is true. What makes them
any more or less crazy than you? You believe that Jesus died for you,
which is fine. But there are many of us who think otherwise. Why is
it so difficult for people like you to accept that fact and let others
be? Why do you have to insult them by labelling them Satanists or
saying that the religions of others aren't legitimate?

"You may have heard the term "SubGenius" sometime before, buy you
might not be able to quite put your finger on it--almost as if it were
some dim racial memory, some archetype from Neandertal times. That may
very well be the case.

Now, the Church was not founded until 1953. And it was 1979 before
Dobbs created The SubGenius Foundation as a vehicle to bring the
teachings to the public. But SubGeniuses have always existed...even
before Dobbs. In all the cradles of civilization--Subermia, Egypt,
Atlantis--clues have been found which prove the existence of the
Conspiracy and of the SubGenmii who fought to subdue it.

The wisdom of those ancient SubGeniuses was never lost. Carried down
by secret oral traditions, it lies latent in many living people,
waiting only to be triggered by the Abnormality Revolution. Perhaps,
even as you read this, you can feel those ancestral powers and arcane
memories surging up from within your dankest brain gutters.

Ask yourself--don't you feel different at this exact moment than you
ever did before? Isn't it because you feel some vague but momentous
force emanating from this very piece of paper?

You didn't just wander into a bookstore and happend to notice this
Book. You were led to us, and we to you, by powers much greater than
Man and yet, seemingly more random than Fate. But the ways of the
great Manipulator in Space, Jevhovah-1 only appear random. Yes,! Our
pather crossed because it was PLANNED--plotted out aeons ago by alien
minds more bizzare than your wildest nightmares, as part of a
"WorkNet:" a cosmic scheme woven into such a complex web that not just
human history but the fabric of cause and and effect themselves was
disrupted. FACE IT-- the very fact of your eyes moving across this
page at this moment is inevitably and subatomically decreed. You are
locked into the machinations of a cosmic puppeteer who works your
strings so skillfully you never knew they were there.

Yep.

If I gotta' cut out the toga parties, orgies and virgin sacrifices you
got stop wearing your pentacle and also do away with the baby
sacrifices and the annointing with blood has already been declared a
no-no owing to the bio-hazard issues.

Also you need to spend at least 157 minutes a day practicing saying

I for one have no problem with Jesus. I do, however, have a problem with an
ignorant twit like yourself who feels that she and she alone knows what it
means to be a "Christian." You're so ate up with yourself that you're blind
to the how others see your actions. Your words are full of hate and lies.
It takes more than going to church and singing hymns to be a Christian -- it
takes actions -- and your actions here speak volumes about how
un-Christian-like you are. I strongly suggest you do some serious Bible
study -- especially about the sections that deal with judging others.
Perhaps then you'll see how far short of the mark you fall when it comes to
being a REAL Christian.

This universe has been here for billions of years and probably will be

To question their beliefs threatens them; it makes a secret part of

Of course, SHEER STUPID HATE isn't the only things that keeps people
away from the SubGenius Church. You may simply have more important
things to spend your time and money on--things like albums, going to

Hard-sell recruitment for this Church is too much trouble to bother
with, because by definition tru SubGenii are not "Joiners." They're
rightfully suspicious of herds. They don't want to be "members' of any

the cult's tendency towards secrecy and the one Law that the laws

The Bible says that Christians are known by their actions. Your actions
here are hardly Christian-like -- unless your church believes that
repeatedly bearing false witness is Christian-like. You set a very poor
example of Christian-like behavior -- why should anyone want to follow your
example? You're young so maybe as you gain wisdom, you'll see how prideful
and hateful you appear to others.

more from the BOSG:

Sounds Crazy? You bet! The early Christians sounded SO crazy to the
Romans that they were used as lion fodder. Modern day Christians seem
to have forgotten that; plenty of them would like to see US thrown to
the bulldozers. Oh, sure, we blaspheme like crazyagainst the gods. But
that's exactly WHY this is the first religious text in history that
doesn't take "the Lord's name" in VAIN. For once, there's a REASON.
GOD HIMSELF CUSSES!! He's MAD! He's being falsely represented on
Earth! Jehovah-1's pretentions would be bad enough, but now all these
human preachers have gotten into the act, doling out notions of
"right" and "wrong" as if their peabrains could even BEGIN to sort
such things out. They've cornered the market and set things up so that
enligtenment in Their churches consists of four basic stages, each
more tortuous than the last, and when some poor devil finally does
ghet Illuminated he just reenters the world and goes back to basically
normal behavior.

SubGeniuses are BORN enlightened and so may remain in the world,
"acting norma" (it's all relative). They already KNOW the Big Secret
of most Mystery School: that "divine ecstacy" is arrived at just as
easily with a backrub, or a good screw, as it is through 20 years of
ascetic self-flogging in a cave--at least, AS LONG AS THERE IS SLACK.

By now, the average False Christian reader will assume that this whole
church is the Devil's work. But we're much too unpopular for the
Devil. He's strictly big time and doesn't mess wiht marked underdogs
like us. He uses those already in seats of power. The power of the
SubGenius is that WE DON'T NEED POWER. We don't even need brains. We
have "Bob," we have a Deal with JHVH-1, we have our own capacity to
blunder creatively. We're too disorganized for the Devil. If he's
anywhere, he's where you least expect him.

Most people totally misunderstand the term, "SubGenius." Look at the
word. What does it mean?

It means NOTHING! It's utterly ambiguous. All-purpose. It sure as hell
doesn't mean "just below genius level." To "Bob" and his mighty
friends in The Council of None, one happy idiot is worth far more than
ten A-bomb-inventing-geniuses. We throw most so-called geniuses OUT.
They're too nervous, they take themselves too seriously, they're
SNIDE. They do not truly know Slack.

Praise "Bob," there are as many idiot SubGenii as "smart" ones. Most
prevalent, however, are smart-asses. It isn't brains, but an
intuitive, anti-Pink, anti-cute ATTITUDE MUTATION. The Conspiracy has
proved that you can have high intelligence but still not be able to
THINK.

No, yes, SubGeniuses are merely The Chosen People-- the class which
cannot be classified, those who are different not only from others,
but from each other. If any two are the same, ONE MUST GO! We band
together only for strength, and only temporarily. The Conspriacy used
to KILL peopel who displayed SubGenius traits. Thanks to the countless
martyred evo-and devolution cults that pave d the way, nowadays you're
merely penalized FINANCIALLY, SOCIALLY, and SEXUALLY, for weirdness.
But at least we can come out and admit that there ARE people mutating
ahead, and they are US; and, because mutation is so unpredictable,
there will inevitably be unguessed other steps BEYOND SubGenius...but
only if we fulfill our genetic DESTINY.

Ultimately, it isn't Smart vs. Stupid or Cool vs. Uncool, but THE GOOD
GUYS vs. THE BAD GUYS. The free men against the robber barons.
Frankenstein's monster against the Villagers. Of course it's OUR
definition of "Good Guys," so if we aren't careful we'll end up as a
bunch of Hitlers instead of Robin Hoods.

Worship whoever, and whatever, however you please. But PLEASE do it

in church or has read in a politically motivated translation of a
thousands year-old book. You'll also find that folks are far less
likely to "persecute" you if you're "worshiping" in an appropriate
forum.

<I feel no need to qoute the preaching>

Being a Christian myself (and yet feeling no need to preach to those who don't
want to hear it - my words and actions tend to speak for me) I have a feeling
that our local Jesus Freak is rather new in her belief. Not that I condone her
relentless fanaticism, but perhaps I will cut her some slack and tell her, as a
"brother" that sometimes what you say in attempting to promote Jesus does
nothing but turn people off all the more. So, a word of advice: Let it go. The
people in this group obviously don't want to hear it. Don't force it. You will
only defeat your purpose.

And now back to Lurkerville.

So, Quentin was the Creator. He spoke and gave us life. Before
Quentin, the was no ok.general. All hail the Creator! He who cast
out his net upon the great dark waters of the 'Net and pulled us from
the morass and spake to us and said "Go forth and post. But post ye
only on topic to ok.general. For mine is the Word and the Light. I
am the creator of this newsgroup and give it to you freely. Use it
wisely and in good health. Defend it from the heathens who would
bring SPAM and trolls to it. For this is my gift to you."

That's the really neat thing about being open minded and willing to
listen, that's how we learn. Of course there's also those such a the
person that originated this thread that are so closed minded they will
probably never learn, but then that's usenet. ;-)

Inspiring isn't it?

What's really strange is that ok.tulsa.general was "birthed" before
ok.general, at least according to the "birthing announcements".

Also, when Josh "birthed" ok.tulsa.general he didn't mention a
charter. When Quentin did the "booster" he clarified the situation by
stating there is no charter. Good housekeeping and all that. ;-)

>Pretty powerful stuff.

Yes it is.

Now where you wanna' bury that parchment containing the charter. My
back yards full of buried spammers, so we can't do it here. ;-)

Rumor has it that Carl, while attempting to dry his hair, suffered
severe injuries as a result of forgetting to remove his tinfoil hat
prior to sticking his head into his microwave.

Those injuries, compounded by the cuts and abrasions resulting from
shoving his head through the glass door of the microwave, are
according to these same rumors hampering Carl's efforts at spreading
his version of "THE WORD".

Of course these are all rumors and as such have no more credibility
than anything Carl might post.

Yes. In May of this year, a federal district judge ruled that a
Westchester County (New York) school district had violated its students'
First Amendment right to religious freedom by having third graders make
likenesses of a Hindu god (Ganesha, the one with an elephant head) and
reciting New Age prayers at a high school Earth Day celebration. The
Constitutional provision that protects Christian children from being
forced to make graven images also protects Hindu children from over-
zealous Christians. <g> Sounds like the Golden Rule in action.


"[When] the [Virginia] bill for establishing religious freedom ... was
finally passed, ... a singular proposition proved that its protection of
opinion was meant to be universal. Where the preamble declares that
coercion is a departure from the plan of the holy author of our
religion, an amendment was proposed, by inserting the word "Jesus
Christ," so that it should read "a departure from the plan of Jesus
Christ, the holy author of our religion." The insertion was rejected by
a great majority, in proof that they meant to comprehend within the
mantle of its protection the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and
Mahometan, the Hindoo and infidel of every denomination." - Thomas
Jefferson, Autobiography, 1821.

Well said. I thought it was ironic of Valerie to make claims we worship
Satan without a speck of evidence to support her claim, yet she denies
bearing false witness even though it's in black and white for all to see.
Valerie appears to be another "liar for Jesus."

I'd like to know what makes Valerie thinks that she has the right to ask the

If only Christians, as a whole, were willing to accept the fact that
everyone has the same right to either practice the religion of their
choice or to refrain from practicing any religion we'd all be much
better off.

Although I'm not familiar with all or even the majority of religions,
I doubt there is any religion as fanatical in its denunciation of all
other religions as are Christians.

It seems that religious tolerance and freedom of religious choice are
not mainstays of Christianity.

The word says if ye see a brother in a fall you are to go to that brother and
speak to them. I speak the truth and no I am not into myself . I am into Jesus
Christ the living God. He is my everything. I am nothing in myself but I am
everything in Jesus. I am nothing but dirt but Jesus chose to die for me on the
cross 2000 years ago. I said nothing about sunday school . Going to sunday
school doesn't save you, Getting baptized doesn't save you, Having a decree of
ordination doesn't save you. Only Jesus and his shed blood can save you. Just
because you walk into a church doesn't make you a christian.

The Bible says IN the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was
God. Jesus came in the flesh he was the word made flesh.
The true christians who live the word in their lives and are on the cross would not make
Jesus throw up and he doesn't have to come back to get sick He is sickened in heaven all
by himself at the lukewarm attitudes of religious christians.

If you dot think Jesus created you then how did you come into being?
The word says in Genesis "The Earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof".
And the word says Only a fool says in his heart there is no God.

Sorry, but it is YOUR BELIEFS that your are trying to get across. You
"believe" that your religious convictions are more valid than those of a
Jew, a Buddhist, a Muslim, a Hindu or any other religious belief.

> IT is the word of Jesus Christ.the word

And the fact that you "believe" IT IS the word of Jesus is proof that you
are arguing belief versus fact. You can no more prove your beliefs are the
only real truth than you can disprove that Thor is not a God.

And guess what -- you're doing a p*ss poor job of it. It is clear that
your ignorance of the Bible is only matched by your arrogance and pride.
Yes pride -- when you think that you and you alone stand between us and
eternal damnation. And remember what the Bible says -- pride goes before
the fall -- and you're well on the way to a big, big fall.

So?? Every religion and every culture has a creation story -- and the
details vary greatly. What proof do you have to back up your claim?

What about islamic martyrs... who die blowing up buses, innocent people,
etc. in Jihads? They worship the same god you do... and see dying as a
martyr as the highest honor in heaven too.

so are they going to your heaven too?

I doubt that Valerie believes that they (or any other Muslims) are going to
Heaven since they don't believe that Jesus is the son of God. If Valerie is
like most other fundies I've come across, there are only going to be a
handful of folks in heaven since Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus won't be
there. And the same goes for gays, adulterers, and anyone who doesn't hold
the same views on creation, literal interpretation of the Bible and any
other views on Christianity that she does.

Personally, I'd like to see Valerie prove that she is a real Christian using
the test in the Mark 16:18

" He who has faith and is given baptism will get salvation; but he who has
not faith will be judged. And these signs will be with those who have faith:
in my name they will send out evil spirits; and they will make use of new
languages; They will take up snakes, and if there is poison in their drink,
it will do them no evil; they will put their hands on those who are ill, and
they will get well."

If Valerie is willing to be tested and survives, then I might be willing to
listen to her.

Heck, this is nothing.

You ought to be around to see the "hog farm thread", "the anti-Winslow
thread", the "TWA Flight 800 thread" or the "Scientology thread" (tm -

Don't flatter yourself Valerie. Until a thread passes 500 posts it
isn't even in the running for consideration of a "thread from hell".
