Defective,
I don't preach to make money. I earn my keep by working. More snide remarks?
Google,
As to Satan, I simply remind him of what his future is. "Resist the Devil and he will flee from you." I have no fear of him.
" The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom." And Satan is not Lord.
What? Have you no more to say?
To those of you who wished New Orleans not to be spared. You have your wish.
This board is filled with atheists, agnostics, skeptics, mocking, arrogant and defiant rebels. I have held back from saying much (even when I called for prayer during Hurricane Ivan). And this Irongland made fun of me the first time. Well, this is the "straw that broke the camel's back.".
And guess what? God is going to make believers out of you as well. Do you think anyone in the path of God's wrath are laughing now? They tested God once too often. And if you refuse to heed as they have your turn is coming. Be forewarned.
It's all one big joke. Ha! Ha! God WILL get the last laugh! He always does. P.S. He who refuses to humble himself God will prompt along. Harden not your hearts.
Man oh man I just can't get how people think they can tell that God is punishing the city of new orleans . You know it's a fact that the hurricanes form to the south and move north , it's been going on for quite some time now ..... why attack new orleans when all the crooks are in washington anyway ? Also I don't think God would be fooled by people that pray only during disasters just to survive and go back to living an immoral life later on ..................
Heathen,
Did I say that God's message is merely for New Orleans? .
"Well, Irongland, I will also tell you what I have told the people of Louisiana and Florida. "Some people just don't believe until it's in their " face." We will see if I'm a liar in your case and others who persist in their unbelief. And when it happens, you will remember what I wrote."
Just seems like God would be able to think a little more rationally than us lowly humans, and not resemble a member of a gang.
Daunt,
Of course, you are more rational than God (in your high elevated thoughts of yourself). God uses the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise.
Actually, I'm quite powerless. The "threats" as you refer them are not my own. I don't speak in my name.
But from what source are the mockings?
Wow you totally missed like, everything. First I didn't say I was more rational, and basically it isn't my opinion that the reason and rational we use is better than God. God in the bible (or many other mystical transcripts) has a vengeful, many times blind destructive attitude. This, by simple congenial reasoning is irrational.
And I feel that many people's opinions about other individuals on these boards are mostly internal. The opposing individual is usually never as evil or as good as you think they are. And having preconceived notions about some form of group only extends this uninformative view on other people.
Btw, me personally I like poking fun at the tooth fairy, Santa Claus, and other mental creations that have no bases in reality besides vague instances that could apply to a teacup king to underground gnomes. If your God or any other one falls under these stereotypes, well sorry but until there's something besides books and words behind something I'll dismiss it as free game.
Daunt,
It doesn't surprise me that you wish to dismiss everything I say as a mental construct. I have heard it countless times in Louisiana and in Florida:
So how do you propose that "my" God convince you He is not the tooth fairy or Santa Claus? Apparently hurricanes do not persuade you, but it will some.
Do you want Him to send you a warning by means of the most severe thunderstorm you have ever experienced? Let me know. I can request it from Him and you will receive it. Let me know the day and the hour so that He can accommodate you. As a matter of fact, anyone else here who cares to challenge.
Call my bluff. Ha! Ha! P.S. Anyone want confirmation today within one hour?
No takers? No doubt a wise decision.
You shall not test the Lord God.
Natural occurances are automactically going to turn me towards your God? Are you serious? I don't even know what you believe in and I have a choice between thousands of God's to choose from. You're arrogance is sickening sir.
