Credit cards aren't charity.

Thought that counts,gonna end with just that and it was a nice one. As someone who was homeless once upon a time i can say i was grateful for anything and still am in any way shape or form when given something for free. I NEVER complain. A credit card with money on there for a car? Not sure what more is giving then that, besides physical cash in hand.

Prob had so much cash on the card, it was better gifted as such with the pin over the cash. Dangerous game to have tons of cash as a homeless person i seen people nearly beaten to death for what little they had left during my tour of the streets.

Wut.

Credit cards dont have money on them. They have a level of debt that you can borrow AND THEN PAY BACK.
It's not free money. You borrow the banks money and then pay back that money plus some interest (sometimes a lot of interest if you are bad with money).

Oh wait i was under the impression this was like a loadable one where someone just put cash on it and gave it to him. My bad, carry on!

This HAS to be the greatest joke ever. Nobody can be this fucked up without having been involuntarily committed by now.

No. From the bank. With the implication that he has to pay it all back with interest.
In this situation the bank is crazy to lend.

Hes not a danger to the public and can obviously look after himself to the extent that he can hold down a job and provide shelter and food for himself. Being sectioned would be inappropriate.
I really wish that he could get the help he needs though.

Not sure what your trying to imply here, given i have been nice and even considerate. All we get is troll posts like this? Welcome to the ignore bin. If your trying to ruffle my feathers, its not gonna work. Was worth a shot!

You sure? Seems a bit ruffley to me.

 

[mopardude87]

You sure? Seems a bit ruffley to me.

Cause i announce my ignores? Its consideration cause i could respond, ignore and still let that person ramble on. Announcing it lets it be known you could move on from your little agenda with me and find fresher pickings! That and well i don't let negative energy like that even in, part of what i belief in.

Upset? Not even close!

honestly, I've never been as impressed and entertained at one of my own posts. your reply was just a little icing on top

 

[cheez]

Guys, I received my tent gear... including a propane burner.
Watch this ->

cheez bought a used car on a credit card?
I'm not sure Jesus knows about interest rates.

I put both electric scooter ($2630) and a car ($2840) on my card.
My balance is $14,700 now. My credit limit is $17,780. My APR is 16%.

Nothing wrong with good charity, if the op uses it for the better good or takes advantage of it and uses it then i ask whats wrong with it? I have often given homeless people like $5 and people would stare at me me and say" Well they are gonna buy beer" or something like that and well i say that is fine but in my heart i knew i gave willingly with thoughts of that actually feeding them. What they do with any donations is their business when i am gone.

I did make one rare exception and not give once again to this one lady. Some woman was in a wheel chair and i gave her $5. Come to find out when i drove by later she was fully walking and pulled out a insane wad of cash from her purse and started counting it. I never gave her a cent again. She played me like a violin.

It's nice of you helping out others by giving them money. Yes that's God's will.
Don't let that lady in the wheelchair cause your heart to change. You'll find problems with everybody.. The guy I used to give money was on a wheelchair too. When he was done sitting out on the street for the day he walks to his nice Cadillac and drove away... But I still used to give him money. Jesus says give them money (or help in any other way as needed) "unconditionally".... That is God's way, and he wants us to do the same.

Well, that about sums is up. Even if these people do get help, it can only last so long. Cheez, do you enjoy living like this? If not, you should try to find a doctor who can try to help you.

I used to live in a nice home...driving a brand new Lexus. Enjoyed the $50,000 audio cables and power cables in my audio hobby. Since coming to God everything changed... My life got hard and painful. No matter what I try to do, no matter what job I applied, the job of my choice, wouldn't work out. I get either kicked out or get pushed outta there with great torment. So I'm working at a warehouse packing boxes at Amazon. God doesn't mind this, for me that is.

Perhaps its not actually "God" that you've come to?

I don't believe any god worth praying to would want you to be miserable... that's the job of the guy with the horns and pointy stick.

 

[cheez]

Oh and my credit score (FICO) dropped from 730 (2015) to 625. I didn't pay the money the bank asked for after they repo'ed my car and sold to auction. I also didn't pay the last rent payment before I left the apartment last year.

If you come to God and surrender to him God will own you and you will be his child (or slave in harsh term). He won't give you pleasure or comfort generally speaking. Cause pleasure leads to joygasm and eventually leads to orgasm. It's sin. This is what our flesh likes. God is of spirit and he wants us to adapt to his spirit way, which is the opposite of the flesh way. Even though God wants you to feed the hunger and sick, he wants YOU to be in hunger, not full stomach. Plenty of tasty meat, cookies, donuts, ice cream, etc, whatever you like the most God doesn't like. God also hates pornography. Even looking at beautiful women can be a problem....cause you create imagination in mind you want to have sex with that woman, which is sin.

And I'm not trying to be funny here. Dead serious.

This the first you're hearing about the Christian god? He made everyone broken, hates them for it and wants them to suffer to atone for his mistake. That's not a secret, he's completely up front about it.

Cheez, I question your liturgical background a little bit. Jesus calls on us to "Love unconditionally" (actually, "Love your neighbor, as you Love yourself"), but that doesn't mean "give unconditionally". Sometimes, it means "tough love".

Remember, it was said "Don't throw pearls to swine".

And remember the store of the crippled man, and the Angel's Pool. He claimed that he wanted to be healed, but no-one would take him down to the pool after the Angel stirred it. Truth is, he was making a living begging, he didn't WANT to actually BE HEALED. That's why Jesus asked him, "Do you REALLY want to be healed?" Because Jesus knew, that the guy had a money-making gig, that he didn't want to get rid of.

Don't be fooled by Charlatans, Cheez. They are not the truly needy.

and eventually leads to orgasm. It's sin.

There are certain sects of Believers, that believe that Orgasm is a Holy Sacrament, and a gift from God, and should only be practiced between Consenting, properly Married heterosexual couples. I don't think that Orgasm, in and of itself, is a sin. I believe that it was a gift, that allows you to become closer to God.

 

[VirtualLarry]

If you come to God and surrender to him God will own you and you will be his child (or slave in harsh term).

I really truly believe that you may be spiritually deceived. Or I am. Because our beliefs don't appear to be the same. You seem to think that God wants you to be in hardship. Maybe he is punishing you, like he led the Israelites through the desert for 40 years, as a punishment. Maybe you were living a life of excess, and sin, and God wanted you to learn his ways. But I think in general, God wants obedience, first of all, but that comes out of Free Will, not ordering people around like a drill sergeant. Maybe I missed the passage, but I don't think that I've read that you "become a slave". Maybe I'm wrong. But he also wants you to be at peace. You know, the Peace that Passes Understanding.

I've always believed, that the term "God's Children", and "Brothers and Sisters IN Christ", referred to the fact that once you submit to God and Jesus as your Lord and Savior, that you become a part of their family. Not at all a "Slave". It's the evil one that COMMANDS in a loud voice to do things, God asks softly, in a spirit voice, that you need to become "tuned in" to hear.

I do believe that the slamming of doors that you heard there at your free apt., were demonic in nature. I've heard them before too, sometimes, when things aren't going well spiritually for me. And perhaps it IS better, if you are away in the woods by yourself.

But from the perspective of someone that also suffers from a mental illness, sometimes a caring prescriber and meds CAN help, at least make your existance on THIS planet more bearable.

Oh always gonna be charitable, its just part of my nature. I don't follow your exact beliefs as i am a pagan, not christian but i get what ya mean and in my own way i agree. Just the wheelchair lady bugged me a bit, but this was years ago. I can learn to live and forget sometimes too. I had some very bad things happen to me in my life and i usually end up forgiving such people.

Always remember the enemy is always hard at work, no matter the faith. Don't let them in. I found out REAL quick this forum especially the off topic section is very toxic with them. Why mr funny man and his picture got ignored. I was not amused as this is about you and well that post was very inconsiderate of anyones feelings. Even the people who were homeless who had that picture taken, your essentially shitting on them too. No one knows their story, its very disrespectful and in bad taste. I would do it again if i had to, not a moments hesitation. Can't even argue with such idiots, impossible. Waste of energy and even more of your valuable time.

Hopefully you figure out what ya want from life, get on the right track. Don't let these people get to you alright? Blessed be and have a good one sir!

Zappa was raised Catholic but became an Athiest.
