Does God read our posts?

Tomas Kindahl

... out on my Odyssé — again!
Do you think God reads what we post at RF?

He has some assistant, I think his name is ha-Shatan, which is leading God's PR department. One of his employee angels has probably already read your post and dismissed is as SPAM. God won't be notified on it.

yes, the Bible is! And full of comfort!

James 5:11

Except for all the gnashing of teeth, and infinite torment and worrying about all those dragons with flaming bad breath.

That's real comfortable.

Oh! And 2 Kings 6:29: So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him: and she hath hid her son.

And let us never forget: Leviticus 26:29
You will eat the flesh of your sons and the flesh of your daughters.

that is REAL comfort, let me tell YOU.

Thank you! I hope God is as nice as you are .:)
He is! I learned it from the Bible...NT, mostly....which is from Him. Jehovah God is patient with all of us.

(The teaching of Hellfire, and the threat of it, sorry to say, was an invention to keep tight control on religious people. They even were able to change some Bible words to reinforce that dogma.

Now just think: how would you like it, if people said you burned your kids? God has a lot of self-control!)

Except for some types of pantheists and polytheists, I'd say I agree.

But id agree in principle

I only know FSM and I could make jokes about that easily. :)

Them being called "inventions" doesn't stop people from adopting them, if someone believes there's some idea to them. I've heard of someone taking gods from Michael Moorcock's books without a problem while realizing they were never intended to be real. Not that type of folks on this forum, at least haven't noticed any.

The FSM and his noodly church have been declared real religions

Ive taken Anoia from Terry Pratchett. Anoia is the goddes of things that get stuck in drawers, many times have i prayed to her with the prayer "How can it close on the damned thing but not open with it? Who bought this? Do we ever use it?". Sometimes she answers and the drawer magically frees amd opens.

She is also the goddess of things lost in sofa cussions and finder of objects that roll under other objects.

So you think the bible LIED? And that your god was so inept, that he ALLOWED THE LIE to be disseminated by all True Christians™ for over a thousand years?

And only just lately, until ... YOU ... came alone, to "set the record straight"?

hmmmmm.....

.... your god isn't very good at this game, is he?

No, people have lied.
'Only in this time of the end' would accurate knowledge regarding the Bible's words become "abundant, or increase"-- Daniel 12:4 But you, Daniel, shut up these words and seal the book until the time of the end. Many will roam to and fro, and knowledge will increase."

You are not helping your case-- either the bible lied or you are not telling the whole truth.

Of course? It is quite possible that you are both somewhat short of actual reality.

But I have read the hell verses in the bible, and they are quite clear: Your god creates an infinite torture-pit for everyone who doesn't "love him back".
