I have know many faggots in my 55 years. All terrific people. But they have chosen to spit in the eyes of God. He commands us to turn our backs on these abominations. Good day Sir!

Well, of course you can eat rooster. But Jesus doesn't want us to eat shrimp, so we never do! :innocent:

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

So you're blaming people that were born with a mental disease like it's their fault, then assuming they're homosexuals? yup. Like any loving christian would...not do

This is me, am i gay?

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

Stop blaming Landover for your own ignorance.

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

So in your defence of the retarded you thought you'd post a meme picture that mocks the retarded. Nice move, queerboy!

People wouldn't be born with mental diseases if they hadn't upset God in some way. Who knows what sinful thoughts a fetus has. Also they could have been turned into retards to punish the parents (or even great great grandparents).

Deuteronomy 5:9 Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me,

God's justice may seem harsh but it is, by definition, right and fair. Every time the man who hated God looks on his drooling offspring and wonders why his seed was cursed he will remember to fear God.

GLORY!

(Judging by your last post someone in your family REALLY hated God)

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

Okay.
"We know autism is related to atheism, as it is a disability marked by a lack of social and moral values."
Stop right there.

You don't have any right to say that. Just because you believe in god, it doesn't mean you're greater. I know far more many Christians without morals rather than Atheists. Sure, there are Atheists who are complete jerks. But the ones with morals, they tend to be better with them. People like you have selective morals. You'd meet a person, talking with them, end up liking them, and once you find out they're atheist you'd pretend you never liked them and they are below you. Talk about double standards.

Maybe if christians like you would stop acting like they're superior, maybe Atheists would listen.

Saying autism is related to atheism is complete and utter bull. Autism is a condition, thus scientific, it has nothing to do with lack of morals, how would the disease have ANY idea that the parents lacked morals? I know plenty of autistic children and parents and they are some of the nicest people I know.

This is just offensive.

I couldn't find the edit button.

But going onto call him a queerboy? Trust me, I'd love to believe in god. I'd really like to. But I reallly don't like religion. Honestly, people like you all are what's WRONG with religion. Not the atheists, YOU.

I've been lurking on this forum for a while. I've seen many accounts of calling people retarded and queers and gay. Really? Aren't you supposed to be better than this? You are some of the most hypocritical people I've ever encountered.

Like seriously.

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

You're the one who is offensive. You waltzed in here, uninvited, unsaved and unwelcome, spewing your atheistic hatred allover the place and judging us, blaspheming and spitting in Christ's loving face, and now you're throwing a hissy fit because you don't understand the Holy Bible. :glare:

God foretold of your coming here. He tells us that the reason you don't understand His Word is because your father is satan. :rtfm:

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

Friend, neither of us is "greater" than the other. The only difference is God sees the Blood of Christ covering me and nothing but crusty, rebellious sin on you. (Romans 5:9) Which one do you think makes Him vomit? (Hint, not His own Son)

Clearly they aren't really Christians. They only think they are. Poor, deluded fools.

:(

Any "good" you see from an atheist is the work of the Holy Spirit using the atheist as a vessel for His own purposes. The atheist, just like the autistic, is incapable of doing good. (Psalm 14:1)

Friend, if you can show me where a True Christian™ has misquoted the Holy Bible, the one and only source of morals, I'll eat my hat.

Maybe atheists would listen if they stopped their abominable ways enough to actually listen to the prompting of the Holy Spirit.

I think YOU are just offensive to come here and persecute good people who have gathered here to praise the Holy Name of Jesus.

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

1) Your confusion results from your misunderstanding of the word "morals". They are not universal. No one exists "without" them. Don't you mean "good" morals, ie. they agree with you?

2) Don't capitalize atheist or atheism (except at the beginning of sentences). They are not proper nouns.

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

My heart is incredibly heavy as I read through these posts. I am praying for direction and an understanding of why God has led me to this forum. I don't believe that I have ever experienced this much hate. Is this what God intended for us? How is judgment and hate allowing us to reach out into the world and spread God's word? I choose to believe that all judgment is reserved for my God - everything in this world is by His will - I will not claim any right to criticize His plan. I know that there are things and people in this world that act directly against His word - and this makes me sad - but my Lord is all powerful and could put an end to it if He chose. He has not. I believe that my role as a Christian is to bring as many people to God as I can, not to spit on those who sin and wish hell upon them. I am, after all, a sinner myself. We are all God's children.

I leave this post with great hesitation, and am wondering what focus of hate I may be bringing upon myself - but I feel called to go out of my comfort zone and speak to God's love.

-This life is not my own, but belongs to God.

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

A noble choice!

Me too.

I sometimes wish God would simply smite all atheists and autistics right now and preserve His divine dignity! I KNOW He can do it! But alas, it is not in His plan at this time. All I can say is, O Come LORD Jesus. Come soon.

AMEN! I feel the same way! EVERYTHING I do, I do because the LORD directs my steps! He directs my words when I speak. He directs my song when I praise. He directs my hands when I move. There is nothing I do that does not honor Him, because it is not I who live but Christ lives in me! (Galatians 2:20)

\o/

You and I are a lot alike, I can tell!

:)

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

I do not mean disrespect, but I have read many of your posts on this site need to be clear that I disagree.

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

Everything we have posted can be backed up 100% with the Holy Word of God.

Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself. :rtfm:

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

I didn't mean to upset you (you sound upset :() Can you explain why you disagree? We both choose to believe all judgment is reserved for God, we are both sad to know that there are things and people in this world that act directly against His Word, and we both recognize our lives are not our own, but belongs to God.

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

I wanted to be clear that I did not agree with Mary's statement, 'You and I are a lot alike'. I do not think that we have similar views or perspective on how to live and act in God's word. I stand firm in my faith in what God puts into my heart - but I am not here to attack or force anyone to agree. I am only interested in participating in a forum that seems to be meant for the sharing of information and opinions.

I am surprised to hear that you believe that '...We know autism is related to atheism...' is backed up 100% with the Holy Word of God. Again, I do not wish to attack, but to share my thought process.

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

We aren't really interested in your unsaved opinions. Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

Mary - it looks like God has placed some of the same messages in our hearts, but we bring those messages to the world in differing ways.

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

God places the knowledge in my heart to read and follow His Word without reservation, without condition. It sounds like you stop short where your comfort zone runs out. Why would you do that? Do you not trust the LORD to be truly sovereign?

Re: Autism - the New Gay
 

I am learning and growing in my life with God - and I will be for the rest of my days on this earth - you'll never hear me say that I've got it completely right, I will always be burdened with sin. But I am working towards giving God my best, and giving myself fully to Him. God's work in me has me moving to replace my own anger and disrespect towards others with love and patience - especially when I am being persecuted. (identifying with you having to see the inappropriate messages that those who disagree with you have left on these boards) I have never experienced a more difficult transition in how I live - and I mess up regularly. For me, in my mind, stopping short would have been reacting to this tread with disrespect or deciding not to have faith and shy away from sharing the message that He had placed in my heart.

In full disclosure I should share that I was pulled to this post because of the content. I have changed the professional direction of my life in the last 5 years to dedicate myself to participating in the treatment of children with autism. Seeing the pain that these children go through and what they can overcome has never stopped amazing me. I have now seen multiple children work to the point of being indistinguishable from their peers in a typical classroom. This is not possible for every child, but the only researched intervention to produce these results is an intensive (30-40 hrs/wk) behavioral therapy called Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) that is implemented as early in development as possible. Two research studies have shown 50% of participants to reach normal IQ scores and as stated above, participate in a typical classroom without any special aid. (Lovaas, Sallows) We teach communication, social skills, cognitive skills, and give tools on how to overcome uncontrollable behaviors such as painful head banging (head banging is many times the result of severe sensory over stimulation, or the emotional pain of severe anxiety). I have even implemented programs with several families who desperately wanted their child to be able to attend church service - our therapists attend service with the family. I only wish to share my experience here. You would be amazed at the thirst for knowledge and growth that these children have once we just realize that they do not learn like the rest of us - and we teach them in a way that they understand.

I am hoping that you do not feel mislead that I did not share this immediately. I did not want my original message to get lost in the debate about autism.

I am a 27 year old who grew up Christian and have always attended church regularly, but didn’t realize that I was only going through the motions until I was in college and found myself wrapped up in a secular lifestyle. I now have a deep love for God and strive to make Him central in my life every day – but still working on getting past the distractions, every day.

Mary, I want to thank you for your conversation with me. I appreciate that you did not make me feel uncomfortable or be-littled for what I shared.

Very best.
