    Jesus speaks to me with the pure language of love. Only the meek ones understands his calling. Repent yourself before Him and He'll speaks to you and will wash all your sins in his Blood.

    Peace and Love and Holy Kiss.

    Cofty, monster is a bit strong for me. Beging the question "If I were god would I intervene yearly, daily or hourly in human affairs?"

    Sadly I would not. I would be tempted but don't think I would meddle much.

    Guess I am also a "moral Monster".

    Will someone tell me how Jesus speak to you. He have never spoke

    a word to me in my 66 years . If he speaks to you from the Bible then

    he must be speaking a different message to Muslim, JW's , Mormon and

    Jews. When I prayed to Jesus, he never spoke to me or gave me any type of

    a sign that he heard me, just the sound of crickets.

    Maybe he doesn't speak English.

    From scripture we learn that there are those that are children of God (our heavenly father) and those that are children of Satan the Devil (our evil step-father).

    These two parents are locked in a bitter, complex and protracted legal custody battle over us the children.

    We choose which parent's family we want to belong to by opting to accept the adoption terms of either parent.

    Religion outlines our evil step-father's terms (albeit deceptively and surreptitiously). We are not told that there is arsenic in the honey.

    The "unabridged gospel" or "full good news" outlines our heavenly father's outrageously generous terms, secured upon payment of a priceless ransom price to our evil step-father. The details are hidden in plain sight throughout scripture such that those who legally belong to our evil step-father cannot see, touch or subvert - thereby preserving for those who would accept the terms and yield to them.

    aquafrenta - At the very least you would not have designed an earth that would kill millions of its inhabitants and then sit by as it does so...

    Fernando - According to your "unabridged gospel" we simply pawns in god's great pissing contest.

    "secured upon payment of a priceless ransom price to our evil step-father" - Your god is pathetically weak and unworthy of our worship if he has to pay a ransom to one of his own creations.

    fernando this so called evil step father according to religious belief was not created evil but supposedly a perfect angel, so he must have made a choice to become evil i.e.sin from where do you think he made this choice?In order to choose there has to be a selection, it then follows someone must provide the selection; example you cannot choose between an apple or an orange if you are not provided the selection.Therefore who provided the selection for the perfect angel who as you believe became the evil step father? It follows there is only one conclusion HIS CREATOR so the sin must have started with your so called heavenly father,therefore he must have came to earth to be horribly tortured and die to forgive himself WEIRDO.and remember i am only following your logic to its inevitable conclusion

    C&A, Why did you have to ask such deep questions? I am trying to hold on to the Dream, but it is slowly vanishing as I read the comments to your questions. Oh the PAIN!!!

    Try this for a how the scriptures were presented in black and white:

    newmedia.eng.haifa.ac.il/?p=2043

    (I don't know how to make this clickable)

    I took a copy of this to the elder when I was in trouble. This crude way of writing--how could they fault me for not agreeing with the WT view of reality?*

    If if gets to you the same way it has gotten to me, I can't see how any story isn't mistaken from how it is in the mind of it's first "teller". It just seemed wrong to make a religion out of these writings. It seems that every man for himself--And, if there is a god he/she would understand how confused we are at the crap information we've got to work with.

    *They didn't care, BTW.

    As a believer I would answer that, the bible was written by men to control women, children and the vulnerable. When we look at the complexity of science in the natural laws of the universe, I think of an intelligent creator.

    As for the suffering, well that is a question I am looking for answers to. God is indifferent to human suffering and I can only say it's because he is anthropomorphic. But I am anoyed with God, and not really satisfied with that answer.

    There you go CAA, from a believers view, pretty much the same post as I did in your last thread. Kate xx
