Christian Discussion Thread XI: Anicetus’ Revenge

[Sundiata]

God put a smile on your face.

I think that one of the most important answers that we can give to people is that God loves them and loves them deeply regardless of their faults. It's an easy thing for people to identify their imperfections but it's all too common for us to dwell rather than seek to be more perfect.

Ultimately, it's incumbent upon us as Christians to show others that the perfection that people seek naturally isn't solely of this world but in perfect communion with God.

Alright, Gim, I give up. If you can't do anything else but say "no you" I'm not gonna waste my time.

Tarsonis Survivors, you don't really back up your words, just trying ti stir up arguments, right? I believed in you, but you failed me. If you can't back up your posts, don't bother replying to me. Got it?

Ffs he just wants an explanation to the claim which you made. The fact that you want him to provide an explanation for his question is just mind-boggling.

The Lorrrrrd's word is nae good news, laddie; do you nae ken Knox?


Edit:
If Ken were to know Barbie in the Biblical sense in Scotland, would that mean that Ken kens Barbie?

Sounds like something related to druidism, considering Barbie is a doll, but I can't get too ahead of myself.

N...no...It really isn't...

What's he supposed to back up? All he's doing is asking you a question.

At least you've stopped pretending you aren't Gim. That's progress for you. Now if you can stop the bad faith posting, you might be able to actually contribute to the thread.

He needs to back up why he said this:

Joseon, just answer the question instead of this constant evading.

[Hanafuridake]

Define "correct Bible" please.

Probably some extremely questionable Evangelical Hangul translation.

Hangul is a pathway to many translations that many consider to be... unnatural.

Well, translations, in general, are, including Japanese, but you're going off on a tangent.

I did. I explained that in that statement asking you to explain what you meant. Something you refused to do.

[Imperial Joseon]

So, let me get on your cryptic way of explaining: You don't support the fact that homosexuality is not a sin? Do you have biblical reference? Do you have reference from Christian scholars or those of your "denomination"?

Don't even bother Tarsonis, he is never going to answer the question, preferring to play these silly little games instead, in an attempt to distract from the fact he has repeatedly refused to answer a simple question.

Sure I do. But that still doesnt answer the simply question, of "what do you mean?" You made the statement, I'm asking you to clarify. Why can't you do this?

Yeah, I think at this point you're right.

Where in the Bible does it state homosexuality is a sin? Tell me, since you have expertise~

WHAT BIBLE ARE YOU USING?

Sorry to yell, but this is a simple question. You should be able to answer it.

Alright I'll bight, but this is why I was asking you to clarify, because the question isnt quite straightforward in the modern context. It depends on what you mean by "homosexuality," which can have several connotations. Clarify what you mean by homosexuality and I can better answer the question.

[Dogmeat]

I don't care what Bible Tarsonis is using. You're the one who said that his Bible is wrong, and by implication yours is right. I want to know what you think the "right" Bible is.

I also don't care about homosexuality. Stop dodging the question.

[Imperial Joseon]

Well, one of the biblical versions suggest it's sexual intercourse between two men, stated both in the Old Testament.

About time.

The new as well. I'll elaborate when I'm home from the gym

About time.

The hold up here was entirely you. We spent an hour in that circle for you to finally answer my question.

This should have been your response to "what now?" Not that entire game you were playing

[Imperial Joseon]

The new as well. I'll elaborate when I'm home from the gym.

I smell avoidance, but that's you, not I.

This should have been your response to "what now?" Not that entire game you were playing

Hey, you didn't elaborate on your "what now?". You were playing the game obviously. Duh.

[Dogmeat]

"Hey, Dogmeat. I'm using the NRSV translation."

See? It's not hard.

Answer the question, instead of refusing to answer it and then hypocritically asking the exact same question to someone else in the expectation that they will answer it.

[Tarsonis]

No you smell me at the gym. Just finished deadlifts. I smell like booty

This should have been your response to "what now?" Not that entire game you were playing

Hey, you didn't elaborate on your "what now?". You were playing the game obviously. Duh.

But I did. I said it four times.
