    Jason, why don't you address some specific issues if you think people on the board are wrong in their view? If you only do it by email you can only answer one person at a time, if you post here everyone can read it. Frankly, as others have pointed out since you are the one claiming the board is filled with lies, the burden of proof does fall upon you. Just start with one topic, any topic.

    "Who the fuck [am I] to decide who is and who isn't 'lost'?"

    It's not up to me to decide who is and who isn't lost. I never once said it was up to me now did I? It is obvious isn't it. If someone has found the truth they know it. If someone has not found the truth they are lost. Have you found the truth? If you have let me know. If you haven't, sorry to say it but you're lost.

    "Only a know it all asshole would speak so condescendingly to people he doesn't even know."

    First of all you are the one showing up and calling me down so who is the asshole here? Did I freak out on you for something. Since you are so almighty why don't you tell me the truth? Oh, wait, you don't have it. I have truth. Does that make me your punching bag?

    Here are the answers to your questions, LDH

    1. Which truth? The truth. (There is only one don't you know.)
    2. Who cares? A lot of people care. If you don't why are answering the question.
    3. Which Bible? Hmmm...Let me think. Oh, yes, THE Bible. Not the JW translation because it was "tranlated" by a group of JWs who later admitted they don't know Greek or Hebrew.

    Why don't calm down or go snap at someone else.

    Believe me, Jason, you haven't seen me heated up. I am only mildly annoyed at you.

    If you don't want to piss people off, then don't post a new topic with the title "Do you want the real truth or not?" The manner is offensive and condescending.

    Don't come here assuming ANYONE is lost. It is up to each human being to find the road they should walk, and most of them will do it without your *grand assistance.*

    I quoted you directly when you stated you were here to help the lost find the light.

    With all of this 'truth' that you have, it amazes me that you don't post ANY of it here on this public forum, where most of the *lost* would would certainly benefit from your words of wisdom.

    No, you just come in here talking about the truth, which---wait, let me guess, was 'revealed to you by Jesus personally' or some other such nonsense.

    Your manner is offensive and not at all like the manner of Jesus, who you surely would claim to emulate, since you know the 'truth.' THAT'S how I know you don't have the truth.

    Maybe we could hook you up with "humble" and the two of you could procreate, that way you'd have a captive audience for sure!

    BTW, your title is misleading, because according to you, there is only one truth. So there is no need to put a clarifier ('real') on the term truth.

    Introspection,

    Will do.

    Okay, since I've already mentioned it why don't we begin with dinosaurs. Now most people believe that dinosaurs evolved and died out millions of years before man walked the earth. They believe this is a scientific fact of life.

    The Bible on the other hand says the earth and everything in them was created in six days. It does not mention anything being created before that time. So where do the dinosaurs fit in with the Bible? Or do they?

    Did man walk with dinosaurs? Is the Bible wrong about creation? Is the Biblical account of creation to be taken literally or is it a simplified story of evolution? Was it six literal days, or six uncertain lengths of time?

    I'll stop there. And PLEASE people, no more name calling or rude postings. If you have some knowledge to share feel free.

    OR if you do choose to email me [email protected]

    Jason, I'm a little unclear on what your position is on the dinosaur issue here. I take it you don't believe in evolution or that dinosaurs existed before man, that you question it as scientific fact. So what do you say about it? How do you reconcile the scientific data and biblical accounts?

    The truth is condescending and offensive to you?

    And if I assumed no-one here is lost who would I be fooling? Almost each individual has his own opinion and they can't all be right, can they?

    "It is up to each human being to find the road they should walk, and most of them will do it without your *grand assistance.*"

    Watch that blood pressure, alright. No kidding each person has to find "the raod" on their own. When did I say they needed my grand assistance? Is it wrong to offer help to people who want it? If you don't want my help can't help you can I? So why don't you stop going all haywire on me and find a topic where you fit in. Come back later in the month when you're not in such a bad mood.

    And in case you didn't read my last posting I have started to discuss a topic already. But since you don't care it shouldn't interest you. I said it before, i guess you were too angry to pay attention; I answer specific questions. The "truth" alone is a little too vague.

    "Your manner is offensive and not at all like the manner of Jesus"

    MY manner is offensive and unlike the manner of Jesus? I'm happy you pointed that out since you seem to portray him quite accurately yourself. Calling people assholes is a common occurrence in the New Testament. Now tell me, what do you know about the manner of Jesus?
    Obviously you've never read the story of Jesus because he was VERY OFFENSIVE. Why do you think the Jews crucified him? Because they wanted to decorate the cross?

    And you are the one who can't seem to swollow your pride.

    And there is a reason to put 'real' in front of truth. Because the only truth IS the 'real truth.' There a plenty of 'truths' that aren't true.

    LDH I can't wait to be belittled in your next posting.

    Introspection,

    I don't reconcile the evolutionary account with the Biblical account. I know that many try to, but they don't fit. My position is that the Bible's account of creation is to be taken literally. Dinosaurs living with man, six literal days, etc.

    I know, however, that most people don't believe this. That is why I think it is a good topic to start with. It is foundational too because it is in the beginning.

    "If someone has not found the truth they are lost. Have you found the truth? If you have let me know. If you haven't, sorry to say it but you're lost."

    I seriously doubt this guy has anything useful to offer. He certainly can't ride a train of logic from point A to point B without falling off into non sequitur.

    I haven't found 'the' truth. I am most definitely NOT lost.

    If you can't figure this out, you are not qualified to school anyone.

    Laughing at you not with you,
