Thanks Bray, and a joyous Resurrection Day to you and yours.
Happy Easter, Bro.
You left off the sarcasm tag. Or are you serious?
Happy Easter
He has Risen!
He is risen indeed! Thank you Bray, this ‘braying’ describes the situation perfectly. Happy Easter!
Viciously attack those evil non-believers to celebrate the Resurrection of the Prince-of-Peace.
Maybe a nice drive-by shooting of the Godless scum in your Easter dress would make the Lord proud.
Kill the Atheists! God is Great! God is Great!
Hit a nerve did I sister?
Happy Easter
Do you have any idea how stupid you sound? Go hang out in the Middle East and mock Mohammed and Allah.
Let’s see how brave and funny you really are.
Uh oh, somebody need her diaper changed?
Some of our “empty, useless” lives as you claim are much more fulfilling and satisfying than believing in imaginary beings. We don’t rely on false beliefs for our happiness. That says more about your life than ours.
Happy Easter.
You believe in evolution which takes more faith than any Christian can muster. We evolved from a single cell, really? How much faith do you rely on to disbelieve in God?
Happy Easter
Yep. The evidence is there. You just have to look for it. But sites like this are designed to bring conservatives together to defeat the fascist progressive movement and focusing on differences such as religion serve no purpose.
You start out by saying “Whoever LOVES God must also LOVE his brother. 1 John 4:21“
Then you go on to make some rather rash generalizations about all non-believers, stating that Atheists lead an empty and useless existence. Generalize much?
I do not personally believe in a supreme being, in God or in any Gods for that matter or go to church so I guess that makes me an atheist. I don’t refer to myself as an Atheist however as I think a number of them act like jerks. While I do not believe, I have absolutely interest in telling you that you shouldn’t. I have in fact stood up for the rights of believers.
I once got personally involved in a situation then the manager of a senior apartment building where my father lived, owned by Catholic Charities BTW, but receiving HUD money, told the residents that they couldn’t hang “overtly religious” Christmas wreaths on their front doors and where prohibited from saying “Merry Christmas” to each other in the common areas of the building as it might be “offensive” and because of her interpretation of HUD rules or some other such nonsense.
After speaking with my dad and several other residents who confirmed that this woman had actually told them this, I called the manger, who refused to take my calls, then I called the Archdiocese who blew me off, and then I called a local conservative and Catholic talk radio host and me and my dad were both interviewed on air about the gross violation of their First Amendment Rights and blew the lid off the story. Long story short the apartment manager was fired as she should have been.
I’ll have you know that I live a very useful and meaningful life. I have a good job and pay my way and my taxes. I deeply love and am very close with my family and have the love of my family and close friends as well. When I went through a bad time financially a few years ago, they stood by me and supported me as I have often done for many of them in the past. I am the type of person who will drop what I’m doing in a heartbeat whenever any of my family or close friends need me. I’ve also come to the aid of complete strangers without asking for anything in return.
I am conservative, I am pro-life, I support the military and believe in the Constitution as written by the Founders of our great nation. I place my hand over my heart when reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and get teary eyed when I hear the Star Spangled Banner.
As far as the Ten Commandments, I have never committed murder, lied nor do I bear false witness against my neighbor or anyone for that matter, nor have I ever stole or committed adultery. I don’t even curse but on rare occasions and I don’t covet my neighbors possessions.
For someone with supposedly no morals, I live a pretty moral and happy life.
Really, what evidence? Do you have a single example of a transitory species in the fossils which is undeniable? There should be millions and there are none so who is living on faith in agenda driven junk science and who is not?
Happy Easter
None of those things matter. You have sinned in your heart and you fall far short of the glory of God and are condemned. You are falling for the oldest lie in the book that you are a good person when you really know better. Pride is an awful hard sin to beat and Jesus warns us about it.
Sounds like an empty existence.
Happy Easter
The Gospel according to St. Matthew 7
1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
Sounds like an empty existence.
To me, an empty existence is doing nothing but seeking out and finding fault and commendation in everyone but one’s self. What you don’t know about me is that I would lay down my life to save yours; I would give my very life to defend your right to your faith under the Constitution even if I do not believe as you do. Would you do the same for me?
Happy Easter
And a very Happy and Blessed Easter to you and yours and to all my Christian family and friends! And a blessed Passover to my Jewish friends as well.
