"Having the math", or more precisely the geometry or spatial relations aptitude, is essential to developing some understanding the scale of creation, the scale and relative precision of the organic patterns within it, and the great unlikelihood of mere random evolution having just come together into such a system.
Although you claim not to be able to follow the science upon which you rely in (1); and in (3) you claim obtuseness about the analogy I made regarding the length of history; you nevertheless were positive in posts 114 and 193 that it is science that has the answers, that our ancestors were merely superstitiously attributing natural disasters to the hand of God, and that we now can discern "perfectly" natural reasons for natural disasters.
Given your self-disclosed limitations, we must ask the questions, "how can you be so sure?", and "haven't you already admitted that the origin and scale of 'nature' and the question of what is 'perfectly natural' have to date existed outside your interest or beyond your understanding or attention span?"
I've done plenty for FR in the past, both monetarily and as a chapter leader.
If you don't like what I posted...
That is all.
...you have taken their earnest posts and twisted them beyond recognition.
You have maligned their opinions/words...and called them names.......I didn't make this up!
You say no one is more fervently anti-abortion than you.....what have you done for the 'cause'....
...prayed in front of an abortion clinic?
..risked arrest?
..helped Right to Life financially?
..volunteered at a crisis pregnancy center?
...prayed to end abortion?
Just curious.
You have a great homepage!
Thank you.
..Tara and others posted what the MSM won't.....or as Paul Harvey said....'the rest of the story'
..I was just trying to defend Tara (who I don't know).... because I still think she has a right to post what she will....
So far, these rights are still open to us at FR...
..you can post what you will, within reason.
If my tone hurt you, I'm sorry.
Truly Deb, these other posters, most of them, are sincerly earnest in what they post too.
Must get busy with other things now....
It’s all right.
Maybe it’s been changed but it starts with “Family of .... “
I read yesterday but can’t remember the caption as it was posted then, only the very compelling story.
My my, you certainly know how to judge. I’m very impressed at how well you can tell other people what their sins are, and how well you can justify yourself.
It’s amazing, the authority with which you speak. You’re probably always right, too. Nice going.
You were raised in the church? That doesn’t make you a Christian, any more than being raised in a garage would make you a car.
Impressive message of love you have there, for your fellow FReepers.
Thanks-
And, yes, I am "always right". Thanks.
Deb, I don’t see anyone on this thread who has JUDGED the 7 “tottlers” (in the USA, spelled “toddlers”). Please quote and give the post number of anyone on this thread who has done so.
I have seen you on all these threads calling everyone who disagreed with you “sick” so I don’t have any concern about being in that company, but I offer you forgiveness for your lies to us all.
As for you being always right, I leave that to the Savior to judge you, because He said that as you judge, so will you be judged. And you have judged every FReeper who disagreed with you on this topic, in the vilest of terms.
St. Michael the archangel, defend us in battle, be thou our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, o prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world, seeking the ruin of souls.
Save your forgiveness to me and direct it at those who have seemed to delight in this tragedy. You obviously didn't read this thread from the beginning and chose to jump in at the end, for some reason, or else you stand with them. Also sad.
I suggest you recite your prayer while standing in front of the mirror.
Thanks for the spelling correction. I wasn't paying attention. Your smugness is good for something.
I’ve just spend a few minutes (all the time I indend to waste) on your posts, reading them. Now I know all I care to know about you: you’re a sinner, just like everyone else, but you think you’re higher on the godliness scale. Great.
May you be blessed sometime in the future with the presence of God, the Salvation of Christ, and the Love of the Holy Spirit, and may your day be blessed in general.
Because you are a well-known type, I will bet everyone here that you cannot let this post go unanswered.
You have yet to show where I "twisted/confused" or "maligned" anyone (okay, I called some jerk a "loon" Ooooooo, that's a rough one.). I'll wait.
PS: it's protocol to post to the people you are talking about in your posts. If you have something to say about me...say it to me. This isn't the 4th grade.
Interesting you chose to read just my posts and not the posts I was responding to. Here are a few: #2, #16, #34,#13, #43, #51, #68, #122, #129, #148.
You are now obviously admitting I called no one else a "sicko". Lies come easily to you, "a well-known type".
Well, I think the Bible says, “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” That includes me, so, how is it name-calling?
But, you may not read that bible, you may have another set of beliefs that don’t make as much sense.
No problem.
But I guess you proved my point. Heh-heh.
God bless you, and have a wonderful day.
PS, I have been reading these posts about the airplane crash since yesterday, all of yours on all the threads, and I went and looked you up in the forum.
I was certain you wouldn’t be able to refrain from responding. You are one of those “types.” Now, I leave the thread. No need for me to try to make you look foolish, you have that all wrapped up. Congratulations!
Dang it.
Here’s my $5.
