God and his angels are the ultimate voyeurs. You think it creepy when bishops ask teens about their little factories, or SP want to know what color of panties were involved, what positions were employed, etc etc...... Well it has nothing on invisible beings watching your intimate moments in all their invisible omnipresence.


For added creepiness factor, open up your baby making sessions with a prayer! :eek:

It is better to be a warrior in a garden, than a gardener at war.

Some of us, on the other hand, actually prefer a religion that includes some type of correlation with reality.

you might not want to speak in such absolutes. stones and glass houses comes to mind. my observations lead me to conclude that both sides engage in same if not similar conduct. Both side will cherry pick quotes, will strain to make a square peg fit, etc. A prime example is the the Church defenders almost complete unwillingness to correctly state the LDS Church position concerning the Priesthood ban; Dr. Petersen, Scott Gordon, Juliann, and many others claim the Church position is "we do not know", when infact the Church position is "not known precisely". And as though this was a twilight zone, pointing that the Church did not say "we do not know" but rather that the Church stated "not known precisely why" gets persons either banned or threatened with such. so like I said, you might want to be careful about absolutes concerning those who claim to otherwise defend the Church.


Time to part ways, Frankenstein. We have had too many complaints.

This thread is done. Jeff the amount of contention you bring to the board will get you 30 days. After that it will be permanent if you can't act according to board guidelines.

What MAD's own wenglund's up to:

"No, that somewhat incoherent statement doesn't correctly reflect my meaning. For the third time, please stop putting words into my mouth."

Always misunderstood. He seems more impatient and condescending lately...maybe not. Maybe it depends on who he's engaging.
Apologists are great. The likes of Nehor, JeffK, Pahoran, Wade, etc., who seek to offend and/or like to invite members to leave are my favorites.

Rock on Saints! You're performing a valuable service to your fellow man.

I, for one, applaud their style.

Pahoran wrote:De gustibus non est disputandum. Erotic poetry just doesn't do it for me, even when the participants are of the appropriate sexes. And personally, I rather think it's good to get past being squeamish about some of the more vigorous demonstrations of God's power in the Scriptures.


Pahoran is really offended by love poetry that mentions breasts, but relishes the thought of God-sanctioned genocide and rape. Interesting!

By denigrating the sacred as mere emotionalism, Areabird was being deliberately offensive and dismissive.

But then, when you're down to a single arrow in the quiver, you use what you have.



Getting highly emotional about someone's dismissal of your testimony might not be the best means of demonstrating how divorced from emotionalism your process is.

Zakuska is a damned moron:

A damned moron named Zakuska wrote:These are the verses used:

Luke 10:18
18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

Isaiah 14
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
17 That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?
18 All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house.
19 But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.

We aren't talking about a direct translation here... more an interpretation of Concepts. Of a light barer falling from the heights.

Now the Bible being written in Hebrew or Aramaic gives us the following:

Strongs:
(Word #) 1299 baraq baw-rak' a primitive root; to lighten (lightning):--cast forth.
(Word #) 1300 baraq baw-rawk' from 'baraq' (1299); lightning; by analogy, a gleam; concretely, a flashing sword:--bright, glitter(-ing sword), lightning.

'O' a commonly used Hebrew poetic joiner.

Strongs:
(Word #) 1116 bamah bam-maw' from an unused root (meaning to be high); an elevation:--height, high place, wave.

Which gives us the name of the Anti-Christ as :

baraq 'O' bam-maw



Coincidence?! or a Stretch?


Stretch Zakuska. Big damned stretch. Are you retarded or something?

Mmm.... I don't suppose if I were to begin a thread at MAD that interpreted some passages in the Bible in a way that suggested Mutt Romney was the Antichrist they would lock the thread or ban me? Nah.... I'm sure the mods wouldn't have any problem with that at all.

It is the reverse of a fall(unless you do contortions on defining the fall).



Occasionally it's good to post the intelligent quotes as well, even if they're unintentionally intelligent.
