What has God done lately?
    #7384216 - 09/08/07 03:52 PM (16 years, 4 months ago)

OK, so some 13 billion years ago, the Supreme Being created the Universe. That is all well and good, but can one merely coast on past accomplishments?

I thought about the word 'Mafia' today. I thought how close it was to 'Ma Fear'. But that wouldn't be because mafia is an Italian word and would have no connection with an English correlation. Unless...

Yes, I actually do work in a large public school system, but jeopardize my career? No. Actually, I was hired for my position because I had first-hand ('street') experience. Besides, in my last school alone, an assistant principal with whom I worked got 30 years for selling 30 kilos of cocaine to DEA agents posing as dealers. He even made the deal in the school and was busted just outside the school. He was 52 years old. Another teacher I knew for many years got 35 years when he rejected his plea bargain for a trial - for f**king his 13 year old girlfriend. He was 37 years old. The last superintendent of schools was fired because he had phoney academic credentials. They cut him a severance check for half a million dollars! Do you think I pose any threat to a system as corrupt as this?

Did I miss something in this thread? How the hell does my job have anything to do with the price of tea in China?

I honestly believe you have to be one of His children to experience everything he has to offer. Some who are lost say they get epiphanies but I doubt their authenticity. I'm not saying that all people who don't know Him experience what he has to offer, but I would say those are far and few between.

If anyone is interested is listening to a Christian's testimony for Christ and his experience in 'hell', I will be glad to upload it.

I don't believe in people I have never met and that other people wrote about what they supposedly remember that they said.:rolleyes:

That's just bizarre IMO. I would have to be gullible as hell or totally afraid of eternal damnation. Either case is abhorant to me.

Well there you go then. Just one more question..When you say you would have to be gullible or afraid of damnation, which one is it (if any). If you believe or at least entertain the notion of the latter how can you ignore the fact that God offers us forgiveness of our sins so we dont have to go to hell?

Which is it? That's the question for the ones who believe not me. To go for salvation out of fear is cowardice and those who do it get the shallow life they deserve.

As far as hell goes I lived it as a child with full on Baptist fundamentalist parents.

Your god can eat my shorts:lol:. You can beg and scrape for forgiveness for being born if you want but I would rather explore the experience of being alive. I plan on having as much joy and love and laughter as I can manage before I check out and face whatever is awaiting me.

The fact that we are required to seek forgiveness for our sins as a condition of birth shows how fucked up the Christian God is. My God would give us the benefit of the doubt.

Heh,

Ain't it funny that - supposedly - God willfully created us as imperfect sinners...and then punishes us with eternal damnnation for this condition? Just a guess but I'd say God has some serious self-worth issues.
