anyways, to help this guy out, what bobtist said was correct

For marital relationships, the Bible says 'Do not be unequally yoked to unbelievers.'

simply because it is easier for you to fall than to help. now if there was jsut a friend relationship involved then by all means go for it and help them out.

By what I say, you are brainwashed. Now show me that the Bible is any more correct than anything I have to say.

It's great that the facts are accurate, but commandments are opinions not facts. Whenever anyone tells you to do anything there are those that agree with this and those that don't. So what is your point in mentioning that it is an accurate literal text.

BoogerN is the smartest man on earth.









Now, see, someone could read that statement, turn around, and say "I know he is. I read it in this article once that said he was the smartest man on earth."

Yup, that makes it true all right...

sorry, if i did offend you all. but i guess there aren't any cold hard facts that i got. i'll see what i can find for you. theres a binder of articles from various reputable journalism that someone has. i'll try to get it for everyone. it ranges from times to scientific american. good thing i got you all to keep my brain juices flowing. this debating stuff is hard. i'm glad i clicked on this thread. maybe we should start a new one so we don't mess up total's thread

<< now, RED DAWN, its not really arrogance, its the truth. We do think we are right and the non-christians are wrong. we are not saying otherwise, in fact i'll say it again. WE ARE RIGHT AND THE NON-CHIRTIANS ARE WRONG >>


well, its a truth to me, not truth to you. if you say someone i dont belive that exists a fater than you owe me an appology cuz you are insulting my REAL father. with that snobby attitude of yours, you will NEVER convince me that you are right. why cant you lead an examplarary life so people can learn from you and grow to belive your religion? what i see in the VAST majority of christians is far from your ideals. if you dont wanna be called 'a bible pusher', then dont use your belifs as an established fact in discussions. why the hell you think christianity is so special? its just another religion. oh, maybe it is special, cuz its one of them primitive religions relying on fear to spread its power. sure, i will burn in hell if i dont beliveing god, my stinkin ass.

I can't prove to you concretely that Christianity is the hard, real truth. There's evidence for and there's evidence against. It's all very subjective. BUT, BROTHERMAN has it right that in order to &quot;win&quot; people to our beliefs, we must be exemplary in what we believe. We must live it out to the best we can. Some of you want 100% evidence. I apologize, I can't give it to you, cause I don't have it. I'm not sure anyone has it. All I can offer you is my friendship that is based upon that love that I feel the Lord continuously gives to me. I know that this is probably no where enough for you to choose to follow Jesus Christ, but it's a start.

[/b]Warm Asses

this friday night
the Mexican girls at the Catholic carnival
look especially good
their husbands are in the bars
and the Mexican girls look young
hawk-nosed with cruel strong eyes,
asses warm in tight bluejeans
they have been taken somehow,
their husbands are tired of those warm asses
and the young Mexican girls walk with their children,
there is real sorrow in their cruel strong eyes,
as they remember nights when their handsome men-
not now any longer handsome-
said such beautiful things to them
beautiful things they will never hear again
and under the moon and in the flashing of the
carnival lights
I see it all and I stand quietly and mourn for them.
they see me looking-
the old goat is looking at us
he's looking at our eyes;
they smile at each other, talk, walk off together,
laugh, look at me over their shoulders.
I walk over to a booth
put a dime on number eleven and win a chocolate cake
with 13 colored suckers stuck in the
top
that's fair enough for an ex-Catholic
and admirer of warm and young and
no-longer used
mournful Mexican asses.

i don't like the term &quot;win&quot; them. but i do agree that we have be examples. that's about it. the best eveidence i can give people in real life is using others as examples.
