Default Hello From An Unrepentant Unitarian - 01-24-2008, 05:57 AM

Hi, everyone. I'm a recently ordained Unitarian Universalist minister. One of my parishoners, who, in tears, pointed me to this site as an example of a few bad apples spoiling all that is good and bountiful that the Lord has given to us. To tell the truth, I think maybe she understated the case, but I don't think tears (honest expression of a valid emotion though they certainly were) are the right answer. Truth comes only from understanding and openness and charity toward those who harbor a different viewpoint.

One thing that strikes me as funny right off the bat is the way you seem to revel in negativity. If your only point is that there are cruelties and contradictions in the Bible, you won't get an argument from me. I have studied the Bible, along with Scriptures from many world religions. I find something good, something useful in my quest for spiritual development, in all of them, but they were written by men (and, in a few cases, by women). Mankind does err, and mankind does sin, so it's not surprising to see that reflected in holy writings. There's a lot more to God than stonings and historical inaccuracies in a book, though.

If you really want to bring others closer to the God that is inside all of us, I don't see how it helps your cause to insult a highly moral man like the Catholic priest Father Martin or to call everyone who disagrees with you a homosexual (I'm not a Catholic or a homosexual, but I wouldn't take it as an insult if you said that I were).

So I'd like to take the high road and look for some common ground with the Baptistry of Landover. Let's start here: I believe that Jesus Christ was a great moral teacher, in fact, the greatest moral educator ever. Do you agree?

As Jesus Himself said:

"I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:16.

Yours in Him,

Right then...we're supposed to sit still whilst a witchcraft practising deviant comes in here and tells us how we have it all wrong? Your parishioner was in tears? Perhaps that might have been due to the fact that she belongs to a "church" that thinks nothing of ordaining sodomites, marrying them....and other sundry political correct behaviours.
You know we are not here to be positive or negative but to speak the truth and perhaps in the serving of that platter of truth we hit the right buttons and people clue in.
I defy you to find a post or topic here where we have misrepresented Scripture.

I'm sorry your parishioner was in tears...tough tittie as the old saying goes. We can only join together here and pray she leaves the unitarian "faith" and finds God and all His wondrous works, which do not include unitarianism.



To you agents of false religions and atheists...

All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the Lord weigheth the spirits.

So that means what, exactly? You responded to the ad in the back of Hustler magazine to become ordained, so you can perform same-sex weddings in the eyes of Satan? Or maybe you drew Sparky the Turtle really well, like on the matchbook?

Oh, I didn't realize you were a girl, StarrfishMadd. That, or a limp-wristed "sensitive" little pansy. Which is it?

That must be why you are an atheist, eh? You believe that God's Word was written by MEN, like ridiculous real trash such as the Koran, the Bhagavad Gita, or anything by that jackass Richard Dawkins. How much of HIS schlock do you use in your "sermons", preacher?

Do you realize that Satan is using you to drive innocent souls straight to Hell? Is that why you saved up all those cereal box tops, so you could become a Eunuchtarian Unsavedness preacher and Save Souls for Satan?

Your obsession with inaccuracies in God's Word tells me that you don't read it. There are no inaccuracies. God's Word has no contradictions. It is His Holy testament to humanity!

Maybe, just maybe, you should actually STUDY the Bible before you start claiming it to be full of "hysterical inaccuracies"?

The "God" that is inside YOU is but a demon in your colon, mister! There is nothing "moral" about that pedophilic syphilitic freak Thomas Martin; he comes to this Godly site to mock Christ and promote Mary-worship, sexual perversion, and cannibalism! Didn't they teach you about Catholics in your mail-order Foolitarian "schooling"?

Unequivocally, NO.

Jesus THE Christ (it's not a last name, jackass, it's what He is! Christ = Messiah!) was the earthly incarnation of GOD. Can you grasp that with your feeble pansy mind?

No, I thought not.

Thanks for writing us. Good luck in Hell.

What do you think is the right answer? Persecuting us? Suppressing our freedom of speech? Realising that you're wrong and coming to agree with everything we say?
Quote:

No. As has already been pointed out, truth comes only from GOD, and GOD alone.

What on earth would you want to study "world religions" for? Is there a secret code in the demon Koran that tells you where the sand negroes are going to strike next? If so, please don't keep it to yourself.
Quote:

Why am I reminded of Deuteronomy 13?
1 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder,
2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
4 Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.
5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which the LORD thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee.

He's a Catholic! How could he possibly be moral? And how is being called an abomination to God not an insult?
Quote:
So I'd like to take the high road and look for some common ground with the Baptistry of Landover. Let's start here: I believe that Jesus Christ was a great moral teacher, in fact, the greatest moral educator ever. Do you agree?
Yes. Good start. But anyway, you ask why we're so negative? Have you even the slightest familiarity with GOD's word? Have you ever heard of Original Sin?

Psalm 51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

Ecclesiastes 7:20 For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.

Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

James 4:4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

Matthew 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Do you begin to see the situation here? We are ALL sinners, and the vast majority of us are damned to eternal torment in the Lake of Fire. Toss that copy of "Chant and be Happy" or "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" or whatever mumbo-jumbo you're using as scripture out of the window (extra points if you manage to hit one of your witless hippy congregants with it) and try getting stuck into some proper Christian reading, like "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God."


O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.


God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

No. I believe that Jesus Christ IS the only begotten son of God Almighty, who died temporarily for my sins. I believe that He IS one-third of the Holy Trinity. I believe that Jesus IS God, and that by His Grace I am Saved and washed clean of sin with His Blood.

Jesus IS, not was. He came to save Mankind, not give us a lecture on morality. The entire Holy KJV1611 Bible teaches morality, of course. But to label Jesus as a mere teacher is to trivialize Him.

Now I have a question for you. Where in the Bible does it give you permission to perform marriages on sodomites?


Who Will Jesus Damn?

Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:

Hypocrites (Matthew 24:51), The Unforgiving (Mark 11:26), Homosexuals (Romans 1:26, 27), Fornicators (Romans 1:29), The Wicked (Romans 1:29), The Covetous (Romans 1:29), The Malicious (Romans 1:29), The Envious (Romans 1:29), Murderers (Romans 1:29), The Deceitful (Romans 1:29), Backbiters (Romans 1:30), Haters of God (Romans 1:30), The Despiteful (Romans 1:30), The Proud (Romans 1:30), Boasters (Romans 1:30), Inventors of evil (Romans 1:30), Disobedient to parents (Romans 1:30), Covenant breakers (Romans 1:31), The Unmerciful (Romans 1:31), The Implacable (Romans 1:31), The Unrighteous (1Corinthians 6:9), Idolaters (1Corinthians 6:9), Adulterers (1Corinthians 6:9), The Effeminate (1Corinthians 6:9), Thieves (1Corinthians 6:10), Drunkards (1Corinthians 6:10), Reviler (1Corinthians 6:10), Extortioners (1Corinthians 6:10), The Fearful (Revelation 21:8), The Unbelieving (Revelation 21:8), The Abominable (Revelation 21:8), Whoremongers (Revelation 21:8), Sorcerers (Revelation 21:8), All Liars (Revelation 21:8)

Pastor Zeke, those Unitarian Unicorns don't even use the Bible!!! They'd rather read atheist books by hippie Communists like Timothy Queery and Jack Kerry-whack or that homer Walt Whitman.

I'm not surprised at all that those wicked little socialists marry sodomites. They have the only "church" in the world where you can stand up and say your religion is Jedi Knight, and get applause for it! Those folks are just downright crazy.

Universality? Isn't that the branch of Unitarianism that holds all beliefs to be true, even atheism? My Hellbound San Fransissyco friend Bob L told me that one atheist group in his area meets in a Unitarian church. By your' own beliefs friend we TRUE Christians™ are right. At the very lest your 'own faith demands you respect my faith which tells me you are a hellbound sinner.

Anyway welcome to our church forum friend. I hope your stay here will help you escape the sinful doctrine of toleration.



Time to reclaim our FREEDOM from the “Mullah in Chief” and his growing activist voter hoards of socialists, communists, anti-Semites, anti-Christians, atheists, radical gays and lesbians, feminists, illegal immigrants, Muslims, anti-Anglo whites and others.

Thanks for helping me to refine my list of tricks that Landover members use to avoid answering a question in a straightforward way.

(1) Cite an unrelated passage from the Bible (Born Again Bob).

(2) Put together a string of insults and pretend that is an answer (Joshua, whom I thought was the dimmest ornament on the Landover Christmas tree, but Brother Cletus just disabused me of that notion).

(3) Trivialize someone else's religion (Shirley Phelps-Dodge, Brother Temperance, Brother Cletus) BTW, Brother Temperance, I'm unrepentant because I live in God's grace.

(4) Sling racial or sexual orientationist slurs (Brother Temperance, Pastor Ezekiel, Bobby-Joe).

(5) Make assumptions regarding what others believe without bothering to ask them (Shirley Phelps-Dodge)

(6) Say that anyone who disagrees with you will go to Hell (Shirley Phelps-Dodge--she's obviously selling fire insurance, not spreading the Gospel).

(7) Put words (e.g., "hysterical") in other people's mouths (Shirley Phelps-Dodge).

At least Brother Temperance, Shirley Phelps-Dodge, and Pastor Ezekiel sprinkled their missives with a little substantive discussion of the question I posed, so maybe this won't be a total waste.

The right answer is to have a civil discussion in which you demonstrate to me why I am wrong. If you can't do that, and so far I haven't seen any evidence that you can, then you're Church is just a joke, and not a very good joke, at that.

Universalism teaches that all persons will be reconciled to God. We do not believe that all faiths are true, just that there is some truth in all faiths. Yes, my faith demands that I respect your beliefs. So, for that matter, does basic human compassion. I asked a simple question about your beliefs, without hurling insults--that's the way respect works.

Marriage is a committment of two or more persons to mutual support, love, and kindness. It is not a sacrament that requires a priestly blessing, and I am no priest. I can't perform a marriage for someone else. I can only celebrate it.

OK, "is" is fine wth me (Einstein showed that the concept of now is a human construct, whereas creation is eternal). I never claimed that Jesus was a "mere" teacher (I believe he was, among other things, an extraordinary teacher, and about as far from trivial as a human being could get).

So, let me rephrase my question: Can any moral philosophy or religion be a valid guide for leading a righteous life if it ignores any of the lessons that Jesus preached? If so, which lessons of Jesus can we ignore?

I left a Landover verbal trick off my list: (9) Make allegations that directly contradict the Bible without batting an eyelash.

I'm sorry to have missed this thread!

Mister Starr -

Unlike most so-called "Christian" churches, we at Landover Baptist Church believe in the Truth, the WHOLE Truth, and NOTHING BUT the Truth.

Where do we find that Truth? Truth comes from God, not from the imaginings of men.

Where has God recorded His Truth? Why, in the King James Bible, of course!

Now, when God says in His Book that we are to have no other gods, then that means we are to have no other gods.

When God says in His Book that sodomites are an abomination in His eyes and should be put to death, well, that's exactly what He means.

So, when you come along and talk about leading people to pray to Gaia, or Allah, or the Flying Spaghetti Monster, and intentionally driving them from God's Truth, it tends to upset some of us. You see, we've devoted OUR lives to sharing the Good News, not a bunch of heathen lies.

Your original post was full of attacks on God and His Truth, and us as well. Shall I enumerate?

Quote:
One of my parishoners, who, in tears, pointed me to this site as an example of a few bad apples spoiling all that is good and bountiful that the Lord has given to us. To tell the truth, I think maybe she understated the case
Here, you called us bad apples spoiling all that is good and bountiful. In fact, we are among very few who share the WHOLE Truth, the source of all that is good and bountiful, and also the source of all that is evil.

Quote:
Truth comes only from understanding and openness and charity toward those who harbor a different viewpoint.
Here, as pointed out by several other Christians, you claim that Truth comes not from God, but from human reasoning and discussion. This is an outright lie about God.

Quote:
One thing that strikes me as funny right off the bat is the way you seem to revel in negativity.
You claim that we are negative. Would it be positive for us to lie to people and say, "Yes, God will indeed let Homersexuals into Heaven!" or "Yes, it's fine for you to have a third divorce!" Of course not! We'd be LYING to people, and directing them straight to Hell!

We are overwhelmingly positive at Landover, as our only goal is to help people find that narrow path to God.

Quote:
I have studied the Bible, along with Scriptures from many world religions. I find something good, something useful in my quest for spiritual development, in all of them
Here, you tell us that you spend your time studing books of witchcraft and demon-worship, and find them "useful in your quest for spiritual development". This is a lie. You cannot find those truly useful unless your goal is to develop as a Satanist. Sorry, Mister Starr, those books steer YOU away from God, and books of witchcraft and demonology like the Koran and Kama Sutra are forbidden.

Quote:
but they were written by men
Those other books, certainly. But the Bible was dictated by God. Again you insult and denigrate God's Word and True Christian belief with your false assertions.
Quote:
If you really want to bring others closer to the God that is inside all of us,
Which "god" is inside you? I'm wondering if perhaps Shirlee Phelps-Dodge hit it right on the head, Mister Starr. Because your actions are surely not dictated by our Lord.
Quote:
I don't see how it helps your cause to insult a highly moral man like the Catholic priest Father Martin
What makes you think that Thomas Martin is highly moral? Do you know him personally? Are you perhaps a sock of his, trying to defend him against God's Truth?

I suggest you do a little research on Mary-worship, saint-worship, idolatry, and pedophilia before you start spouting off about how moral the pagan Catholics are.

Now, we have seen how many times and ways you have directly and indirectly insulted either us or God personally or our beliefs in your introductory post. For some reason, this is what you call "taking the high road"? And you expected, perhaps, a kind and loving response when you declare war on God's Word?

Sorry, Mr. Starr. We defend God's Word to the end, even if your delicate anti-Christ heathen feelings get hurt a wee bit.

Where is this UU church of yours? Perhaps some of us can come picket your lair of demon worship, and even help you -- or at least some of your horribly misguided congregation -- find the light of Jesus' love!

Let me get this straight: you think our Church is a "joke" because we believe what God wrote in the Holy Bible? Are you here to persecute us too, just like your Unitarian forefather Servetus persecuted the great and Godly John Calvin?


Quote:
Yes, yes, and yes. Are you familiar with Colossians 3:8-14? If so, what does it mean to you? Has that ever been a topic of a Landover forum discussion?
Friend, here at Landover Baptist, we believe in the ENTIRE Bible. We don't go for that Thomas-Jefferson-cut-and-paste feel-good crap. Here's what the Bible says about the unbelievers:

Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you? - II Kings 18:27.


Quote:
Universalism teaches that all persons will be reconciled to God.
The problem with that, my Unitarian Unicyclist friend, is that GOD says something completely different.

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. -Revelation 21:8

What in tarnation are you talking about? We're just simple God-fearing Baptist folk who believe the Bible in its ENTIRETY. We're not ashamed of the parts that make Episcopalians nervous to talk about.

That comment was a simple statement of fact about my friend and not directed at you friend. I am sorry if it came across as a personal attack. There is no room for hate at Landover.

Well friend statements like
“One thing that strikes me as funny right off the bat is the way you seem to revel in negativity.”
Does come across as an attack.

To answer that question directly we celebrate all of God’s acts, even the ones you describe as “negative”.

No, of course not. The whole point of being a True Christian is to follow all of God’s teachings, not just the parts that sound good. That’s why we come across shocking and stunning to some people. You see our critic of modern Christianity is in attempt to gain some fleeting popularity false teachers have distorted God’s message to pander to the unsaved.

You ask why we attack Father Martin; why? He’s a Catholic and they are classic case of chopping up the Word of God for their own ends. How can anyone be moral if they are willing to misled people into damnation for their own selfish ends?

Landover is the only church that can guarantee that if you follow our teachings you will not be damned.



Time to reclaim our FREEDOM from the “Mullah in Chief” and his growing activist voter hoards of socialists, communists, anti-Semites, anti-Christians, atheists, radical gays and lesbians, feminists, illegal immigrants, Muslims, anti-Anglo whites and others.

No, I think your Church is a joke because you write thousands upon thousands of words that don't address the question that I posed:

Can any moral philosophy or religion be a valid guide for leading a righteous life if it ignores any of the lessons that Jesus preached? If so, which lessons of Jesus can we ignore?

It's a bit surprising, actually, since, unlike Brother Cletus, you seem to have a functioning mind. Have you perchance been taking obfuscation lessons from Ms. Phelps-Dodge? Anyway, why are you so afraid to answer a simple question about your faith? Are you ashamed of the things you believe?

Except, it appears, Matthew 28:19, Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, since for a group that guarantees salvation, you don't seem to be very interested in answering questions about the Bible.

Finally, an answer to my question. There is at least one Evangelist at Landover, after all. You do think that the teachings of Jesus are a necessary component to leading a moral life. Hallelujah, we agree on at least one thing.

Here's one that will probably be easy for you to answer: Jesus said in Matthew 5:18, For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled (see also Luke 16:17). Does this mean that, according to Jesus, we must follow all of laws in the Old Testament, without exception? If not, would you please explain the relevance of Jesus' statemtent to leading a life of faith?

As before, I will ignore the incessant obloquy and focus on your answer to my question, if you happen to have an answer and the willingness to share it.

Yes it does mean we true Christians follow ALL of the Old Testament laws as well as ALL of what Christ teaches in the New Testament threw Himself and His apostils. I though I was making that much clear with my previous statements. I would also like to state I BELIVE Jesus teachings are the ONLY WAY to a moral life. All other ways led to utter depravity.

If you had been paying attention rather than having a radical communist agenda, you would have seen that several of us have already addressed your question.

Do you think this is some kind of quiz, and you are the headmaster? We are here to praise Jesus, not to be quizzed by a hippie who doesn't even accept the Holy KJV1611 Bible as the literal Word of God.


Who Will Jesus Damn?

Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:

Hypocrites (Matthew 24:51), The Unforgiving (Mark 11:26), Homosexuals (Romans 1:26, 27), Fornicators (Romans 1:29), The Wicked (Romans 1:29), The Covetous (Romans 1:29), The Malicious (Romans 1:29), The Envious (Romans 1:29), Murderers (Romans 1:29), The Deceitful (Romans 1:29), Backbiters (Romans 1:30), Haters of God (Romans 1:30), The Despiteful (Romans 1:30), The Proud (Romans 1:30), Boasters (Romans 1:30), Inventors of evil (Romans 1:30), Disobedient to parents (Romans 1:30), Covenant breakers (Romans 1:31), The Unmerciful (Romans 1:31), The Implacable (Romans 1:31), The Unrighteous (1Corinthians 6:9), Idolaters (1Corinthians 6:9), Adulterers (1Corinthians 6:9), The Effeminate (1Corinthians 6:9), Thieves (1Corinthians 6:10), Drunkards (1Corinthians 6:10), Reviler (1Corinthians 6:10), Extortioners (1Corinthians 6:10), The Fearful (Revelation 21:8), The Unbelieving (Revelation 21:8), The Abominable (Revelation 21:8), Whoremongers (Revelation 21:8), Sorcerers (Revelation 21:8), All Liars (Revelation 21:8)

I appreciate your fastidious adherence to the Bible's sartorial ordinances. It is obvious that you are truly a man of the cloth. However, I'm more concerned with moral fiber than I am with the composition of your dungarees and shirts.

Just so I'm clear on this, you are saying every single Old Testament law is binding in its entirety on all Christians today, without exception, right? I'm sorry to be repetitive (especially after I have criticized the wordiness of Landover), but it seems to me that this point is the lynchpin of all that separates your doctrine from that of most other Christian denominations. I want to be sure that our discussion rests on a firm foundation.

Um. Let us imagine how an atheist would respond to some of your questions, and contrast that with the way a Bible-believer would answer the same question.

1. Jesus was the greatest moral teacher ever.

Atheist: Nope. Odds are that, unlike Buddha and Mohammad, Jesus never existed. There are no archaeological or contemporary historical records that any such person lived. The earliest Gospels were written when the apostles who supposedly authored them would have been very old men; most were written after the apostles were dead. Jesus was probably a real character created over about a century and a half, modeled on the mythos of Dionysus and Osiris. If he was real, there is nothing in his teachings that places him particularly far above Buddha, Mohammad, or Confucius.

Bible Believer: Jesus was the Son of God. He was not a prophet, He was God. He was not a great moral teacher, He was God. Either you believe that, or you believe that Jesus was a megalomaniac and liar because He Himself said in plain words that He was the Son of God, and that He and His Father were One. That is plain Bible truth. A human can either believe it, or he can go to Hell -- and WILL go to Hell, because Jesus said that is the penalty for not believing Him.

2. Do Old Testament laws apply to Christians today?

Atheist: Don't be an silly. The Old Testament is a mishmash of bronze-age history (mostly apocryphal) and superstition. If the author of the Bible were actually an omniscient and eternal Deity He would have told His children something useful, like how to sterilize surgical instruments, cure cancer, and make fusion power a reality. He would have warned us about Hitler and Pol Pot. Instead He saw fit to tell us about King Jehoram's rectal prolapse. Real smart.

Bible Believer: Jesus said, again in plain language, that not one jot nor tittle shall pass from the Law till all is fulfilled. Luke puts it, And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail. Luke 16:17. These verses are unambiguous. But God's Law is not meant for Christians, IT IS MEANT FOR MANKIND. It is for God's Kingdom, and all the Earth and all mankind is God's kingdom.

Quote:
The consequences for law of this fact [Shema Israel: Deu 6: 4,5] are total: it means one God, one law. The premise of polytheism is that we live in a multiverse, not a universe, that a variety of law-orders and hence lords exist, and that man cannot therefore be under one law except by virtue of imperialism....The law of Buddhist states is seen as valid for Buddhist nations, the law of Islam for Moslem states, the laws of pragmatism for humanistic states, and the laws of Scripture for Christian states, but none, it is held, have the right to claim that their law represents truth in any absolute sense. This, of course, militates against the Biblical declaration that God's order is absolute and absolutely binding on men and nations.

Now then! You are a Unitarian, therefore you have religious beliefs. What might the Atheist and the Bible Believer ask you?

Atheist: How much does the Spirit of Life weigh, what is its energy frequency, and what physical forces does it couple to -- gravitation, electromagnetism, the strong or the weak nuclear forces? If you say it is only "spiritual" and not physical then I challenge you to show that it is anything other than wishful thinking: prove that a Spirit of Life has any existence in the real world.

Bible Believer: Why does Oprah wear those tight dresses? Doesn't she know she's too chubby for them? Oh, and why in the WORLD would anyone listen to what an atheist says? I mean...just open your eyes, and all the world declares God's beautiful love! Yesterday I saw a three-legged dog get hit by a pickup truck, and as I watched it twitching and pooping itself in the ditch this manifestation of God's handiwork filled me with awe. How can an atheist NOT believe in God?

Sincerely,

~~ OEJ

Be that as it may starsinyureyes.... the fact remains that you vilify God when you preach anything other than the word which is HIS WORD...yes all cappy like that so you get the point.
I'm not here to shine on bub....just here to witness. I'm a humble Scot and all I do is witness. I am not a fancypant razzledazzler type like you who embraces fornicators, sodomites and sododykes and other abominations.

I'll thank you to remember that and I will carry my dim badge quite happily. God shines for me and through me and you should remove those blinders.



To you agents of false religions and atheists...
Proverbs 16:2
All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the Lord weigheth the spirits.
