Marking Rick's religious posts as spam on google groups
seems to have no effect. So, your only option is to ignore
them. One day he'll stop posting this stuff. Or you'll stop
reading the group.

To both Alexei and Peter, unfortunately, yes, Rick is being annoying
and has been asked to stop, repeatedly. Don't hold your breath
expecting a change. But, when Rick is discussing non-religious
programming topics, he seems to be knowledgeable.

Also, he's not posting to Google Groups. This is a Usenet group. So,
of course, marking them as spam in Google Groups have no effect as
Google can do nothing to moderate Usenet posts.

Also, this Usenet group is not moderated. It's also part of the
alternate Usenet hierarchy (alt.*) where topicality is not encouraged
as standard etiquette, i.e., spam and off-topic is considered normal.

Some of Rick's posts are through Google Groups to Usenet while others
are to Usenet from Eternal-September, a free Usenet provider. So, you
could send complaint emails to both of them, if you wish. You can find
the abuse email addresses in the full message source of his posts.
Both Usenet readers and Google Groups allow you to view the entire
message source. E.g.,

groups...@google.com
ab...@eternal-september.org

You're right about the latter.

However, I'm not so sure about the former.
See for yourself, what his posts look like on google
groups (image): https://ibb.co/b3qBGG

But then again what is there to stop his offtopic
posts from a different account/provider even if his
google groups account is banned?

So, just ignore him.

What Rod means is that even if I post to Google Groups, it
filters out to Usenet, so it's not just a Google Group.

There are just Google Groups that do not filter back in to
Usenet.

I have three email addresses I personally use, but I only
post to these forums using one of them. In fact, I only
post to nearly every forum using one of them. The only
reason I post to any forums using an alternate one is from
when it was set up long ago and I didn't have the account.

> So, just ignore him.

I would advise each person to read what I post about their
need of salvation. It's important.

You can ignore and cast negativity upon me, but the message
men and women like me deliver is what's important. It has
the power to save your soul. We do not. We are flawed
people just as everyone is. But, we don't advocate ourselves.
We advocate the One we teach about: Jesus Christ.

You will be unable to find flaws with Him.

Please, for your own soul's eternal sake ... investigate the
matter. Search out for yourself and see if there's anything
there for you in the way of forgiveness for your sin.

Thank you,
Rick C. Hodgin

I know there are non-Usenet google groups.

...

It may very well be important to you. It may even be
important to Ben. But he keeps his religious matters
off the group, which is how it should be because the
group is about a rather specific non-religious topic.
And then there are non-Christians and those who don't
believe in any god. And they won't listen to you or
won't hear you or the word of god you're referring to.
And they will be upset with the irrelevant and unwanted
posts (don't we have enough spam and ads already?).

Could you show a bit of kindness and not post religious
things here?

> You can ignore and cast negativity upon me,

I don't know you personally. You may be a good guy,
but it's just not the right place for your religious
posts. If you're true to yourself (and, presumably,
to your god) and have a great conviction, I know that
it may be very hard to see that what's right for you
and what's true for you (and for some or all of the
people close to you) is not necessarily so for
everyone else.

Let's agree to disagree and move on?

It's not religion. Christianity is not a religion. It's a
message teaching forgiveness of sin. It's then the changed
life which comes from being born again of the spirit, and no
longer being of the flesh-only.

It's not an outside-in thing. It's an inside-out thing, because
the change that comes when your sin is forgiven is internal. A
person is fundamentally re-wired from the inside out.

-----
Until a person seeks the truth, they'll never never be able to
understand this. But if a person will simply seek the truth for
real, then God will make them able to understand and they will
be saved.

All I'm asking each of you to do is seek the truth, and to seek
it fully, and with a full-throttle effort, to DEMAND OF IT that
it explain itself fully.

Seeking the truth is a right thing. It's what all of us should
do. And whosoever seeks the truth in that way (meaning, "for
real"), finds it. God Himself makes it possible to come to that
knowledge.

You can't see it today because you aren't looking for it. But
this message of truth-seeking, and of Christ, will continue to
eat away at you because there's a part of you, put there by God,
which knows the truth, and that part will continue to remind you
that you are not on the right path today, and that God wants to
save you, and that there is a way to be saved in eternity.

-----
The information is before you. All who are being saved will be
saved.

To give this message a voice with words that are not mine, this
is from A.W. Pink, a man who lived in the 1800s:

"Unless the Holy Spirit illumines our understanding, the
wonders and beauties of the Word will remain hidden from
us.

"The Bible is addressed not so much to the intellect as it
is to the heart. Prayer is an essential prerequisite.
Before we open the Bible we need, every time, to get down
on our knees and humbly beseech God, for Christ’s sake, to
“open thou mine eyes that I may behold wondrous things out
of thy law” (Psalm 119:18).

"Mysteries of grace which are hidden from the wise and prudent
are revealed to “babes,” i.e., the simple, humble, dependent
ones. It is written, “The meek will he guide in judgment:
and the meek will he teach His way” ( Psalm 25:9).

"Have no confidence in your own powers: remember that “a man
can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven”
(John 3:27). Yet God is ever ready to give to those who ask
in faith.....Ask God to make the passage speak unto your own
soul, and to grant you the hearing ear."

~ Arthur Pink, "Exposition of the Gospel of John"

-----
As Jesus did during His ministry, He offered the message of free
eternal life to all who will receive it. There is no force in-
volved. Nothing compulsory. But all of those who are being saved
will come out from the world and be saved. The rest will not.

This message is given for those who are being saved. It is not
given for other people.

Not oops. For some people that's all Christianity will ever be.
They teach religion with people are involved in a type of religious
club meeting once a week and paying dues. That's all it will ever
be for them. A lot of those people exist in the world, which is
why there is so much confusion over "Christians," and why people
like Bernhard say there are charlatans everywhere. There are many
charlatans, but they are not all like that.

For those who are born again (John 3), it is different. They have
been changed from the inside out, and even despite their ongoing
attempts to thwart the new direction of their life, the change
continues to assert itself to the amazement of the individual.

Bernhard, don't let the sinful actions of sinful men give you
a conclusion about Jesus Christ. He is not those men doing
bad things. He does not teach people to do bad things.

Give yourself the opportunity to come to know the truth. You
are worthy of that time spent because of what it means to you
in your creation.

-----
It is the changed life I advocate, the true born again nature
when you ask for your sin to be forgiven. I do not advocate
or teach anything to be a false convert, or to practice religion.
The born again spirit nature asserts itself within your life and
changes everything. Literally.

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2+Corinthians+5%3A17&version=KJV

17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature:
old things are passed away; behold, all things are become
new.

It is the new life, the changed life, the eternal life that I am
leading you toward. Only Jesus makes it possible because of what
He did at the cross. He went there sinless, so He could then
transfer your sin to Him, and then die with that sin, and pay the
price before God of that sin you should've received, in your place.
By doing this, He sets us free from sin, and gives us eternal life.

Just block him and the problem will go away. You're anti-spamming is as bad as his spamming. I'd also recommend though that you study Satanism and find out what it actually is, because it isn't what you think. Christians and people of various other vicious religions demonised older religions in order to promote their own religion over them and they murdered huge numbers of people such as experts in herbal medicine, encouraging people to turn to useless prayer instead. They are mass-murderersm whereas the people they branded as Satanists were perfectly decent people who were harmless. The word "wicked" was turned into an insult by Christians, but it is really just the name of an older religion "Wicca" which has witches and wizards (wise men) associated with it. Lucifer was demonised too, but Lucifer is the morning star (which we now know is the planet Venus). Lucifer never fell - I saw him this morning shining out as brightly as ever, illuminating the spiritual way for us. Satanism is good, and Rick helped me find it. He can lead you to Satanism too - do some research into this and become one of the beautiful people that Rick wants to drive humanity away from.

You've been asked numerous times to stop spamming because nobody wants to read your bullshit yet you arrogantly continue. What you say is NOT IMPORTANT and yes, Christianity IS a religion.

I know it seems that way.

The teaching is that there is another type of understanding beyond
what our natural thinking would convey to us.

To our natural thinking, these things I teach are foolishness. But
the teaching is there's more to us than just this understanding we
have today, that by coming to Jesus and asking forgiveness for our
sin, He then takes our sin away from us, which restores us to God,
restores us to righteousness, so that we don't have sin and aren't
under the judgment of sin and the spiritual death which resulted
from sin, so that we are then alive again spiritually, and that it
is from within that spiritual addition to our existence that the
things I'm teaching here begin to resonate and make sense to us.

The information isn't received from the flesh, but from the spirit.

There is no way for a man (or woman) to do this for himself, but
it is something God must reach into your innermost parts and do
for you.

It's why I teach to just simply seek the truth, and to press in
as hard as you're able, and demand from the truth that it reveal
itself to you all that is possesses.

If you seek the truth with that degree of rigor, you will find
it. God is truth, and He will know you are seeking for truth,
even if you don't know where that truth will lead, God does know
and He will draw you to it.

-----
Patience with those who do not yet believe is required because
they are not equipped today to be able to receive it. But, if
they are able to seek the truth God will enable them to receive
it at the proper time.

It was that way for me, for example, because I did not come to
faith until I was almost 35 years old, for example, and I would
have thought in my mind the same things the many people are
posting to me publicly, even I would not have posted them, because
I too was only flesh at that time. But when the spirit nature
asserts itself, then you are truly able to understand these
things in real ways, and it renews and changes everything about
the entirety of your existence from the inside out.

-----
And, for the record, I post these things here because I care
about each of you. I could go to street corners, and have at
various times in my ministry, but I am here, interested in
developing operating systems, and I am, therefore, interested
in each of you because we have similar interests in the natural
things of this world.

Original post : https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/alt.os.development/nvGbmY74C-4


To my fellow "Usenet group"ies:

I come before you today with a request for each of you. I ask
you to give it an ear and ponder it in your heart. Consider it
for a time each day and think about what it means to the baseline
fundamental views we hold in our lives.

-----
My request is that you consider what this means to your self-
image: You were created. You do have a purpose. You were not
an accident of random chance in this universe. You were, instead,
specifically and purposefully hand-crafted by God, hand-placed
into this world where you are, with a purpose to have a real im-
pact upon this world. To further realize that within the creation
of your existence, the one creating you had a real purpose in do
doing. God created you with a goal of certain things He wants you
to do in this world, for example.

Think about this idea: That you were created, that you do have a
real purpose, and that you will go on after you leave this world,
and that you do have a choice today regarding how you will live
your life, and that the warning given you by your very creator is
that there is a real enemy here in this world, responsible for all
that we see wrong here, who seeks to mislead you, trick you, trap
you, and ultimately destroy your soul by leading you away from God,
but if you will give God an ear, and stop hardening your heart
toward Him, that He will guide you not only to safety in this world,
but to the fullest, richest prosperity in Him.

Think about this. Read it a few times. Make sure you get a clear
understanding: You were created specifically by God. You have a
real purpose, and there are two paths before you: one leading to
forgiveness for the wrong you've done, to be a part of God's plan
for your life, one that keeps you unforgiven in the wrong you've
done and is leading away from God and God's plan for your life.

-----
God created you for greatness. He loves you. He will lead and
guide and protect and save you from all evil. But He also honors
you too much to violate His greatest gift to you: your volition.
He will not violate your free will to choose. But look into Him
and see how He's revealed Himself through His Son. The Bible
gives us a view of God that explains things in a way which really
resonates on the inside if you're willing to receive it. But if
you harden your heart, it will always only be a book of laughable
tales and fantasies.

The choice is yours, but the truth speaks to you. You were God's
creation. You were made special. You do have a purpose. And
you will go on after you leave this world. God has a plan for you
and will save you from everything bad, and give you a real and
secure future that dwells in fullest, richest prosperity for you,
His beloved and held dear, most special creation.
