TR,
You have a great wit and a great way of taking away my little bit of thunder! I'm quite impressed and laughing so hard I can barely type this reply!

hang on, folks.
if a) is true then god is arbitrary: anything he says is right, is right.
so you admit that gods decisions are purely arbitrary?.
: You missed my point. I said, being God gave us the logic we use, or do not use at times, who is that God that gave us logic.
Her name is "Georgina" Or "Serendipity" or something.
: According to the many belief systems we have, there are more than one God. I wanted to know what God gives you your logic, DUMMY!
The black lady. See above.
: I also want to know why you find it in yourself to belittle those that may have a difference of opinion with you. Is this an insecurity problem you have?
Is that a "do you still beat your wife" type of question, or were you just born an idiot?

Cats are feral. No two ways about it. Cats are feral. They crouch down, swish their tails and they pounce on their prey. Housecats just crouch down, swish their tails and pounce on lizards and sick birds and stuff. Many of them bring their prey home and deposit them on the porch. If they are well fed (with Watchtower Approved(tm) "No blood" cat food HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!) they won't eat their prey, because they are too full of canned cat food to satiate their hunger. But they still prey, though.
Bigger cats like lions also prey. The females do all the work, and they must wear a head-covering while they prey and while the male lions take their naps. It's a guy thing. Male cats have figured it all out. Get a big mane, have a whole bunch of females doing all the dirty work, give them a little sex once in a while, and retire. What a life those male lions have. Kinda like many male humans, methinks.
It was not this way 4,000 years ago. Lions would still crounch down and they would still swish their tails, and they would still run like hell until they finally caught their prey............,,,,,,,,,,,,straw! They would stalk and hunt and finally capture that straw and then would drag that straw back to thier young ones, so the young ones could feast on that straw.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Please enjoy your lion who hunts, stalks and finally captures STRAW in the New World, folks! I'm sure they will still crounch and swish their tails, because straw is a very elusive and fast-moving prey. You never know where straw can hide out when it is being hunted by a lion.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

Scorpion (HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!) said:
: You did not answer my questions,
I didn't want to embarass you, but since you insist:
: but avoided them with psychobable
Don't flatter yourself, dummy:
:Being God gave us the logic we use, or do not use at times, who is that God that gave us logic?
You answered your own question in the same sentence, you big dummy. "God gave us logic, so who was that God who gave us logic? It was THAT God who gave us the logic that THAT God gave us." DUH!
: And how do you know that the logic one uses is of God?
Logic exists aside and apart from God or anything else. Logic IS. There is no such thing as "God Logic", you idiot. Logic IS logic. Period. There is no psychobabble here. Logic is REASON and solid REASON is as immutable as God. Or is your version of God unreasonable and illogical? If so, you must be a dumb Christian twit. And if that is true, then pity you, dummy.

wow it's great to have so many fresh x'ers or x'ers soon to be visiting and posting here, welcome!
i was a regular poster here from the start of this board while witnesses.net and the original h20 were still active.
i say this not to boast in any way but to make a point and an observation.
: and not have to feel like they have landed in a pit of poisonous
"apostates". (smile)
I'm doing my best to make them feel welcome. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I said:
: God either defines the standard or he follows another standard. What other possibilities do you see?
You said:
:none, but following a standard does not mean that a law exists above
God.
If God defines the standard, it IS the standard. If he doesn't, then he is subject to another standard or he is subject to no standard. If he is subject to no standard, then there are NO rules from God. What part of this do you not understand?
If another standard does exist, and God follows it then there IS a "law" or at least a standard that does exist above God. Period.
It can be no other way. You may not like it, but that is the way it is.
The Bible God dies from a toxic overdose of logic. Bad way to go for a God who isn't even strong enough to make sure people know how to pronounce his dang name. Or even how to spell it properly. He loves to kill lots of people, though. Indeed. Puny Gods need all sorts of distractions to keep people from figuring out that they are puny Gods.

coming out of this religion nearly killed me.
every single core belief i ever held has been mangled, strangled, drawn&quartered, dipped in pitch and burnt and reduced to carbon ash.
my mind and heart got buried in the soulquake; a protoplasmic blob of rage of pain of stifled grief was all that remained of the human who was born me in lodi ohio.
You must know that I love you, MD. If you didn't, you know now.

: Just to stay on topic for a change
Since this is my thread, how could I do otherwise?
