oyIt is the glory of God to conceal things, but the glory of kings is to search things out.you are? can you try to fix that up a bit?Look among the nations, and see; wonder and be astounded. For I am doing a work in your days that you would not believe if told.Fascinating. Like I said, Gods ways are inscrutable. Or isn't that a Jewish belief?do some more SCRUTING before you impose yourself. Did you knowYep. Gods ways are inscrutable.oh----is that what happened-----you got all of western civilization NAILED including itsYes. And it seems to have worked as Western Civilization flourished until such time as we forgot God.oh------that makes it ok----YOUR special deity told you toThe difference for Christians is that we don't deny doing it and were instructed to do so by Jesus Christ.yes---they tout THEIR OWN BELIEF ----how is that different from the christian and islamicAnd yet they usually stop short of saying that they want to abolish and ban religion but continue to proselytize their belief that religion is harmful. That seems rather disingenuous.OH-----I never ran into any atheist activist who wanted to DENY HIS MISSION. UsuallyWhich is why when atheists deny that they are trying to spread their beliefs they subconsciously reveal that they believe that trying to spread their belief is inherently wrong. JW's don't deny what they are doing because they believe in what they are doing and believe it is right to try to spread their belief.gee Meri------that's how the art of "CONTENTION" works. Do you wonder whyIt should not that be that difficult to distinguish between "hurt feelings" and genuine curiosity. Recall the question is why people who do not pursue an interest post in forum for those who are interested in that pursuit. People who do not care for gardening, astronomy, or sewing do not enter these forums to discuss how much they dislike gardening, astronomy, sewing. So why do people who do not care for religion come into religions forums/thread to discuss how much they dislike religion?Yep. I was under the impression this is a discussion board. I never expected that everyone would agree with everything I write. To enter a board such as this and allow your feelings to be hurt by a differing opinion suggests you might want to reconsider participating.
No hurt feelings here, just curiosity. Interesting though that you see hurt feelings. Are we hurting your feelings? (Again, honest question.)
Jehovah witness ladies keep knocking on the doors of persons of "other" religions.
Sorry----but it is a fact that atheism is a BELIEF -----and as you KNOW people want
to SPREAD'em
they point out the violence and injustice FOSTERED by religions-----and such creeps
as CROMWELL
modes of proselytizing which insist "other religions are just NOT RIGHT"
So... the difference is one of conviction.
many genocides -------and even the BUBONIC PLAGUE ----uhm tuberculosis epidemics,
poliomyelitic epidemics ----wars
that it is theorized that the BUBONIC PLAGUE in europe was introduced
by the crusaders?
not really------the work of man is to SCRUTE THEM AND ASSIST ----the concept
is TIKKUN OLAM
