OTOH, if us "heathens" are right, the only way you're gonna find out
is -after- you're dead, when nothing happens.

religion always was and still is idol worship, nothing more.

either way, the Truth will be clear - if God is real, there will an outcome
of one type; if there is no God, there will be a different outcome. I
believe that there is too much proof of God to discount His existence... so
I'm expecting to simply pass over. You apparently are expecting to simply
pass out.

> religion always was and still is idol worship, nothing more.

That's you opinion and you're welcome to it. I think it's a worldly deluded
opinion that is sadly misinformed, and I'm entitled to that view.

None of this changes my view towards anyone in here who is a Steelers fan -
I consider 'em all bothers (and sisters, as the case may be) in the matters
of this newsgroup. But I do want the same for all as my Brother Free - to
put the Word of Truth out there whenever a reasonable opportunity arises.
What anyone does with that is their business. I ain't beatin' no one over
the head with religion... but I have every right (and the actually, yes, the
aforementioned in this thread "duty") to speak for the Word when I can. The
non-believers - i.e. Stalker, yourself, et al - sure chime in with their
assaults freely enough.

That's one of the best lines I've read in this ng in years! Good one Max!

I agree with your views on this, Max. When I see people who feel it's
perfectly okay for them to broadcast their anti-Christian views while
complaining about believers talking about ours, I alternate between being
angry and laughing my head off. It's just too ridiculous.

As you have said, one day all will know the truth. Until then, I'll continue
to exercise the free will my God blessed me with and believe, while
accepting that others will exercise their free will and not believe.

You are correct, sir.

I was a bit shocked when I just saw this thread and how long, serious and
shamefully off-topic it's become.

Christians have no sense of humor.

(I'll be over there, counting the responses to that last remark. This
could be fun.)

proof? such as?
I for one would welcome even the tiniest trace of hard physical and/or
scientific evidence.

Webster defines proof as:
"... something that induces certainty or establishes validity ..."

"In the beginning God[3] created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was
without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the
Spirit of God was moving over the face of the waters."

It's in text; it must be true!! (sarcasm drips to the floor)

well stated - I agree we need to instill certain moral values in our
children, but when these "teachings" turn into religious zealotry,
well... let's just say that mindset is responsible for most of the
world's ills right now, not to mention wars.

I must confess that I have never been able to draw a moral distinction
between "Worship me, or go to hell." and "Give me your lunch money, or
I'll beat you up."
