Re: Proper reading of the Bible [Re: Fucknuckle]

What if I don't have any troubles? What is with the assumption people are troubled?

I really can't complain. I got the basics figured out and then some.

Is that how christianity works, like a cult, they go out looking for troubled people who need them?

No wonder why you arn't reaching me. I know this stuff gets attention out in the nasty streets where you help people find god.

Fucknuckle, you have implied in a few threads that people who do not see as you do are stupid or blind.

Need I say more???

I understand that he is not just singing the Bible's praises, but also putting it forward as the singular source of wisdom which is incorrect.


This is not even close to my purpose in creating this thread and goes to show how much some people read stuff into the things I say.


I suggest that you go back a very CAREFULLY read the first post again.

The point is this...........in order to get a fair and full understanding of any scripture it is very important to understand the complete CONTEXT.

Not a thread shoving the bible down your throat. You are choking your self, Stop it :smile:

"This is not even close to my purpose in creating this thread"

Maybe not what you intended...but it is what it conveyed. Why are you getting upset? The thread goes where the community takes it. Not even it's creator owns it...the community does. To use a thread as a captive audiance to your personal philosophy will not work. Peace.

You are probably unaware of the way your tone is perceived by others. Look at all the responses...we can't all have misread what you wrote.

"doesn't seem to be very happy with christianity and reading the bible in the first place."

I am very happy with Christianity and the Bible. It is a good thing for many...but not for all. Why do so many Christians get so worked up about non-Christians?

You are right, I am so blinded by my own light, I can't see where I made a mistake.

If you would read my stuff, I already said you gave good advice to people who beleive the Bible is the valid truth of the word of god. Go back and look, it's right there in front of your nose.

Anyway refusal to learn from others is nothing more than gross stupidity.

I truly DO want to learn something.

OK then. I will go out and start killing homosexuals as the Bible (Leviticus) commands.

You are right negative,

I was not happy in it, mostly, I was pumped full of hellish fear while in the catholic version of christianity. I was also ego fed and told that I was better then other people and that We were the only ones going to Heaven and the rest to hell for not being baptised, communised and confirmed in the catholic faith.

I have been happier and much more peaceful and loving without it.

I was in a virtual hell until I walked away from it.

Swami you surprise me.......... Even you must see that my quote and your statement have nothing to do with each other. What I said is truth . "Refusal to learn from others is not smart". That has Zero to do with Leviticus.

Your just playing :smirk:


While the Bible may be full of Shit, it is Full of many wise and wealthy teachings. Even if a man is a Atheist, there is much to gain. But you know that already :thumbup: :heart:

How am I being difficult? Does Leviticus state that quite clearly or does it not? Yes or No, please!

Can't you see? It is your negative attitude that is causing this. It wasn't the Bible that upset people, but the attitude you are showing about it. Don't preach religion in a negative, judgemental fashion that goes against the philosophy that you follow. This is NOT a personal attack, but merely an observation.

The Bible... is Full of many wise and wealthy teachings

If I am already wise, then I need not look to his book.

If I am unwise, then how can an ignoramus determine EXACTLY WHICH passages contain wisdom?

What are you talking about ?

It stands to reason that in fact you are the only person in this thread to be having a problem.


Am I not allowed to get the intent of this thread straight ?

Am I required to make sure you understand my feelings ?


No in fact you have is all wrong.



I am somewhat stupified with your logic and how you have come to this conclustion


I think you just don't like me and that may be the problem here.

And when you say "people" get it right. You mean "you" not people.

If you are wise enough then you may be a fool. As wisdom gained is never enough and that is the very basis of wisdom

But if you are not wise enough.......... I can not answer your question because that is between you and you(God)to interpret what will be absorbed into your inner man :thumbup:

Then why are you attacking Swami and Jiggy? You called Swami a fool and tell Jiggy this thread is not hers to post on. You speak in contradictions here.
