You can't love what isn't there. If you try, you're simply casting

Religion is a millstone around the necks of the pious.

You question is very simple to answer.
A five year old says there is a Santa Claus, and is sincere and honest.
A religionist says Jesus is LORD becasue he read it in a book, and no one
has told him that it's like Santa Claus.
At some point, hopefully you will realize that every civilization has had
their Gods.
The only difference with Christianity is that men realized they could make a
living
doing it, and government got involved.
Otherwise it would have gone the way of Zeus.
Anthor hundred years, and religion will be an ancient study.
And Idiots like Chuck and Duke will still be waiting for their godman to
return.

That's normal.
Anyone who writes this kind of nonsense and then crossposts it to the
groups you did isn't looking for real answers but argument and
dissention solely for the sake of argument and dissention.
Get a life, Rodney.
Gee, amazing. Americans fuck? Oh, it could be that you don't know English.
Well, not in this case. Rod was sincerely quite interested in
what Andrew B. Chung had to say about Christianity -- and if
you don't know of our Doctor Chung, suffice it to say that his
personal collection of Usenet Kook Awards is impressive not
only for its variety, but also for its peerless volume -- but
neighbor Rod unfortunately then transgressed some rigid and unyielding
Chungian precept, and is now grouped with the rest of the
ninety-plus percent of posters to `sci.med.cardiology' et. al.
who have done the same.
And Rod is quite sincere about wanting to paper this over with
Andy. However, Rod, having discerned the truth about the entire
affair, will not then demean himself to play the fool and thus
achieve his desire.
-- cary
How ironic, everyone answers but the person the question was directed
at. The Holy Spirit must be out of answers, or is it simply Andrew
that has no answers...?
Already there, Zadok......
Sure. Now deal with the questions in the post that you replied to,
unless of course you're unable to address them properly...or are
afraid to as in Andrews case. If Andy deals with them, he also has
to face and deal with his wrongs, and they are MANY....
I believe you are afraid also...not a wonder why......
Rod
Accordingly to Andrews statement that atheists are unable
to say Jesus is LORD without the Holy Spirit, I already
have. I guess that flushes his theory of us not being able
to do so right down the "ole shitter" !

Ahhh...yes, he wants my love so he threatens to torture me
into eternity for not giving it to him, then kill me
afterwards....a real likable guy....personable and friendly...

Whats the matter, can't the Holy Spirit provide an answer to the
questions ?

It never ceases to amaze me how religious morons can "love" some
invisible being that can't be seen, heard, felt, or interacted
with...even if such a being actually existed.
It's because they don't want to fuck anyone that's English...

Good, because there's no chance I was going to blow him.
I'm American and I want to.
Stan-O wants males only.
The simple are easily amazed.
Who would have thought ???
I dunno, you seen one you seen 'em all...
At Christmas time, the radio here, has a letters to Santa time.
Some clown reads letters to Santa, and goes Ho Ho Ho.
But the point is that over 50% of the letters say I Love You Santa!!
Religionists have never grown up. See at some point, someone older tells you
Santa doesn't
exist.

On the contrary, obvious truth, at least to those who, unlike you, do
not conspire to deceive themselves.
You don't have to preface your posts with the admission, "Obvious
lie"; we already know that.

At least he is educated enough to know that no gods have ever beem proven

creations of humans - like your gods - have no love - or any other traits -
they are simply fairy tales of your mind.

Nope, doesn't do that at all. See how stupid and ignorant you are.
So prove you have thoughts.
They're all from very young children.

God does, and adults say "I love you".
Smile, z.
Moreover, using a computer to cut&paste "Jesus is LORD" is far from
being able to publicly declare it with ones mouth.
"...no one can say, 'Jesus is LORD,' except by the Holy Spirit." (1
Corinthians 12:3)
"I will not help them speak the truth while there is deceit in their
hearts." -- Holy Spirit
Amen.
This is why we have not ever witnessed a single atheist declare in
public that "Jesus is LORD."
This is also why we, who are Christians (either Jew or gentile), can
easily exclude non-christians from our presence simply by requiring
that all declare with their mouths that "Jesus is LORD" if they wish
to remain in our presence !!!
Jesus is LORD !
Yeshua is Adonai !
> "...no one can say, 'Jesus is LORD'
Why would anyone want to?
Fine - if your claim he is there - prove it - let HIM speak to us in person.

Sorry - you still have yet to prove your god exist - much less what he
will provide.
SInce no god has ever been proven to exist in any testable and
verifiable way - I can agree - Your god does absolutley nothing.
If you disagree - then set up a meeting - so we can talk to him in person.
Of course - you cannot set up a meeting with a non-existent human
created imaginary being.
So - let your god prove he exists - you have never been able to do that.
Let him appear and do that.
Sockpuppets want to say "Jesus is LORD" in order to deceive
Christians:
