I see that as false logic, What you do, because you have done it is possible. With respect you were responding to someone else. Everyone is responsible for their own life and what they do with it.

Ha Ha Ha, right on Shelly. Born again christians bore the you know what out of me. I am very spiritual, and I am sorry if I offend anyone who fits into the above category, but pleeeeese give it a break - go preach somewhere else.

This thread by its nature and its title has drawn the responses in it. I do not tend to give such responses in just any thread. That wouldn't be right.

An observation.
Why is it that so often it is the non-Christian that tells the Christian to shut up and not the other way round.

I admire Shell, she could as moderator have quite easily closed the thread or deleted it. I see her responsibly contributing. I see the contents of the development of this thread as relevant. In other threads I wouldn't suddenly start, "by the way I think you should have Jesus in your life and if you haven't you are lost." And I haven't done that in this thread. I believe I have posted valid points in the spirit of healthy debate.

Have a nice day

But you answered to my question even though you weren't the poster I originally raised a question to. Therefore I wanted a straightforward answer from you.

I got an answer, sort of, but what do you mean by false logic?

To actually believe something does not necessarily mean that it is true.

Just to play devil's advocate here....doesn't that also apply to those who believe in God, Denim? It works both ways.

Why am I not surprised.

I can feel it in your posts.

God Bless

All we could say is to express our appreciation for doing an excellent job as
a moderator and our thanks also for the rest of the forum moderators for
the same extraordinary job as well.

You all have a big heart for giving your time in accommodating the needs of the forum members. Last but not the least, our gratitude to our
good-hearted Admin Marek and may you be successful with your studies
as a medical student.

To all the forum members:

We should open our hearts to remember in donating for the upkeep
of this website for it is not just an ordinary one. It would be an inconsideration in our part if we just allow our Admin to shoulder the website expenses because he has his own school expenses already as a student. Any amount now and then would greatly help.

Peace, Joy, and many blessings to all.

There really isn't much to say. You exist, therefore you are - and so on. Christians would say that mankind is given free will by God, you are exercising it.

God loves everyone and yet He gives every human being the power/freewill
to choose for He will not force His love to anyone to accept His love. And in anyone's time of probation and temporary journey on earth and until a human's breath is return to the the Great Maker, both the wicked and the saint are both given the same provisions of blessings and excercise their free will and faculties of the mind to live prosperously and successfully
or not and whether these accomplishments will bring glory to the Lord or for
a meaningless, destructive and selfish life.


He is a good Father and yearning everyone to come home to
him with an open heart and his love for his children is illustrated with the story of the prodigal son. He is the creator of all things and His name
might come differently and called The Great Spirit or Allah to some people
and Jesus Christ to the christians and Jehovah to the Jewish people and
yet He is the same Spirit, the same God, who is also called the Word in the beginning of time who was made flesh for His blood only and no one else is worthy to save the entire human race from eternal condemnation.
