    This really should not be so hard for you: That would depend on how you are personally defining the term "Christian" and what personal connotations you are placing on the term "Christian"! What are the defining terms?

    I understand you are afraid. Your faith seems to be incredibly weak, since you can't answer a simple question.

    Lol

    :roflol: Now that one made my day. I now understand that your understanding is entirely the act of a stand-up comic... you...

    As for not answering a simple question... if nothing else, dictionaries are available for your use in defining terms... yet you won't even lean on a dictionary, which indicates to me that I am correct in surmising that you have ulterior motives and are yourself afraid to disclose that private definition that you are using and or are hiding the connotations you have placed on that term "Christian". So.... nice try, but come on back when you rid your own self of that fear.

    Yep, you are quite clearly terrified. I have never seen someone try so desperately to avoid answering a very simple yes or no question.

    Lol

    'yes' or 'no' are also absolutes.. so before I commit to an absolute,,, you are going to have to reveal what connotations you are placing on the term "Christian" as well as provide the private definition that you have in mind. No fear involved... Simply suspicious of your intent. In other words, your actions in not providing said definition(s) and the possible connotations that you are placing on the term will not allow me to trust your intent behind your inquiry. Are you afraid to spill the beans on your intent?

    It's amazing seeing how scared you are to answer a simple yes or no question. Also quite hilarious.

    Yes you do seem to be terrified of revealing what your intention is. Shame on you.

    A simple yes or no and you are so scared you've been dodging deliriously for 2 days now.

    It's hilarious.

    Your more than likely in for a long wait... direct and deliberate debate is not his strong suit. At least that's been my experience with him.

    But I'll answer your question! No I'm not a christian I can't get my mind to close.

    See that didn't hurt a bit Incorp!

    No its not construed as being a grammar Nazi, it is yet another example of how your posts fit the description. I believe that's called semantics.


    Colloquialisms seem to be beyond your comprehension. In my minds eye, I see a formless face with a huge frown on it. Plain as day.

    A simple statement saying that you choose such and such definition of "Christian" (made readily available through online dictionaries) seems to be non existing to you. Leading me to believe that you have ulterior motives. Now I shall have to take other measures upon your next response which does not include your private definition of "Christian" and the listing of connotations that you apply to the term "Christian".

    Incredible, you still cannot admit your own beliefs? Are you embarrassed? Are you scared how others will react when they find out? Why all the stubborn dodging?

    Be serious. You and your cohorts are totally unbelievable in your gullibility and in your attempts to discredit someone. Your little schoolyard tactics don't work either. Why all the stubborn dodging that you and others do when I make inquiry regarding statements that you or they make? Tit for tat... young grasshoppa.

    His intention is obvious. Your fear of answering a question, show that you are intent on living in denial.

    Speaking of schoolyards...Are you not answering any questions about your faith, because someone failed to answer a question about something else? What is the logic there? Are you admitting defeat?

    Your absurd presumption shows that you are intent on living in a fairy tale world.

    apparently some tenets of your religion do no apply directly to you. How convenient.

    To one of you guys (or gals) I would never think of admitting defeat. The logic is that I am not agreeing to commit to an absolute 'yes' or 'no' answer without first knowing all the details of what he has in mind. Do you often sign contractual agreement without reading the fine print?

    This is something that those who don't understand the Bible have a
    big problem with. They are so steeped in the Old Testament that they
    can't realize the New Testament.

    If you think being a disingenuous troll and a hypocrite is an effective debate tactic you were welcome to your opinion.

    That you are pretending to not understand the phrase "I have your number" is yet another example of your disingenuous twaddle.

    Actually you have to sincerely repent and then stop repeating the same sins. It ain't an automatic pardon.

    You asked a question, I gave you a Biblical answer, and then you responded by completely ignoring the content of the post.

    What do snails have to do with this discussion ?

    How do you read it differently ? How should it read ?

    It does not say that man is the same as God in all way and nor have I claimed this.

    What the Bible does say is that man is the same as God some ways. One of those ways is knowing good from evil.

    So indeed we can comprehend at least some of the mind of God. We are likeminded in knowing good from evil.

    Your claim that God's slaughtering whole towns including pregnant women, children and babies is somehow "OK" because we cannot comprehend the morality of God is silliness.

    The Bible clearly states that we can comprehend such things. It is why Adam was put from the Garden.

    The fact that God made a law stating that children are not to be punished for the sins of their parents and then killing babies for the sins of their parents is hypocrisy.

    Are us dumb humans too stupid to comprehend hypocrisy as well ?

    If you want to believe that God is some baby killing, hypocritical, genocidal maniac with petty human emotions .. go right ahead.
    Just do not try to justify your God's actions on the basis of "its beyond our comprehension".

    The average human has no trouble comprehending hypocrisy and mass slaughter of innocents.

    If mass slaughter of innocents is not evil, then what is ?

    No! Some of them are quite knowledgeable in that they can either quote scripture fairly accurately or copy paste scripture. However, either of those positive attributes do not override the negative attributes of taking scripture out of context or misinterpreting what is plainly stated. Of course there is also the matter of them not being able to differentiate when an analogy or metaphor has been stated in the scripture. Then there is also the matter that they also like to accuse God of all sorts of things while not realizing that they are proclaiming the existence of God if they are intending to convince others of how God is.
