You complain of being insulted and play the innocent. And out of the other side your mouth you call us "cultists". Do you have any idea how insulting you have been throughout this discussion? Maybe you don't.
This is just one recent example. I have neither the time nor the inclination to go search back and list all the other condescending, patronizing, belittling, insulting comments you have made regarding us cultists.
It grows tiresome. I personally have concluded that nothing will convince you, and I consider you a nuisance. I don't mind dealing with a nuisance.
I made a career out of it, in fact. If I thought that you were open to believing in my cult, I would encourage the most knowledgeable of my cult brothers and sisters to provide you with the answers you seek. I do not, therefore I will not. I have seen them try and fail. At this point, I recommend that you wander the desert for forty years seeking your own enlightenment. I promise you that the truth is there to find.
Like I said before. If one such as me can be convinced of this kookiness, then so can you. You and I are not so different, goodman.
You very neatly cut off my explanation for the use of that term. Why should I answer your above, ‘honest,’ question if you are not willing to deal honestly with the reasons I laid out?
People in a cult uncritically accept the behavior of their fellow members. They form a pack and attack anyone who questions their central beliefs. What really astonished me on this thread were the number of lies and smears that were directed at me. I was actually condemned to hell. You’d think a fellow Christian at some point would speak up and say enough is enough. People shouldn’t be damned to hell for questioning Q. But nothing like that ever happened bc no personal attack goes too far if it’s against an ‘outsider.’ Anything goes.
