The meaning is manufactured by the faith and it can be rejected out of hand for that reason.Last edited by tabibito; 10-23-2017, 04:42 AM.1Cor 15:34 Come to your senses as you ought and stop sinning; for I say to your shame, there are some who know not God.

These things are not really part of the atheists lexicon; lacking adequate definition.
The atheist view tends to be that we have no idea what you religioso are talking about and, by the way, neither do you, despite your protestations to the contrary.
Sorry to butt in.

So, tell me, Tassy.... why are you and your fellow atheists on a Christian website fighting Christianity? Perhaps you should take up a hobby. Collect stamps!
And you seem to be under the goofy impression that just because something has been "discussed here", that means it's settled. That's just downright idiotic.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

If they actually believed that back then, then why did they not implement it that way for 200 years?

At least for now. who knows what the liberal nutjobs will try in the future?They always say "we are not trying to take away your ____ - we merely want to control them. your slippery slope arguments are ridiculous and what you claim will never happen" -- then it happens and if you try to say "we told you so" they say "you bigots!" and move on to the next slope.
