Christian Discussion Thread II

[Prussia-Steinbach]

Are Witnesses not Christians?

No.

[Menassa]

Are Witnesses not Christians?

No.

Ahah.

By the way.... are you baptist?

Your fervor reminds me of baptism.

[The Orson Empire]

Nothing. And Jah is not simply a god.

Actually one of God's names is Kuh (replace that k with a y) so in German I assume it would be Juh.

They deny the Trinity is one.

Are Witnesses not Christians?

Nope.

[Prussia-Steinbach]

How do you determine morality? What is right and wrong? Who are you to tell anyone they are good or bad?

I thought we were still on the first question.

Please, answer any of them.

[Typhlochactas]

I thought we were still on the first question.

Please, answer any of them.

I like to go in normal order. I'll bring us back to the first question and once I feel it is resolved, we can go onto the rest.

Aren't you begging the question when you ask who decides right and wrong?

[Prussia-Steinbach]

No.

Ahah.

By the way.... are you baptist?

Your fervor reminds me of baptism.

*sigh* Technically, I am Southern Baptist. However, I identify simply as a Calvinist, and there is plenty I disagree with the SBC and the rest of Baptistry on.

I am not a backwoods, Bible-thumping, country-church fundie, if that is what you are thinking, anyway.

Who or what. How. Answer it any way you like.

[Reggae Magmia]

I speak French in France, German in Germany, and mandarin in china.
I see no issue with calling god ja.

There is no problem with it. I simply will not call Him that.

Every time you type "Him" it makes me think H.I.M.

Now concerning Mormons, although some of their beliefs are...different then most of ours, if they are Christ-accepting brethren I don't see why they shouldn't be considered part of Christianity. They are however, definitely not mainstream.

[Menassa]

Ah Calvinism.... interesting.

What do you disagree with?

So you think Witnesses are Christian.

Who or what. How. Answer it any way you like.

I advocate for the science of morality as described by Joseph Daledin and Sam Harris.

May I ask why?

Imo, yes.

Ah Calvinism.... interesting.

What do you disagree with?

Eh. Several things. Calvinism being the main, big-time difference. The SBC is not Calvinist - they're Arminian, the heretical bastards.

[Typhlochactas]

I advocate for the science of morality as described by Joseph Daledin and Sam Harris.

May I ask why?

I believe that it is the best explanation of natural ethics.

[Prussia-Steinbach]

Who or what. How. Answer it any way you like.

I advocate for the science of morality as described by Joseph Daledin and Sam Harris.

You know, I wish I felt like looking up who those people are.

[The United Soviet Socialist Republic]

I believe that it is the best explanation of natural ethics.

Ah, and what denomination are you?

[Menassa]

I believe that it is the best explanation of natural ethics.

Ah, and what denomination are you?

He's not Christian.

[The United Soviet Socialist Republic]

Ah, and what denomination are you?

He's not Christian.

Oh. Is he an atheist? A Jew? Or what?

[Prussia-Steinbach]

So you think Witnesses are Christian.

Imo, yes.

If I denied practically all aspects of mainstream Christianity, except for Christ being the Saviour, would you say I was Christian?

[Typhlochactas]

I didn't want to bore you with a long argument for it.

[Menassa]

He's not Christian.

Oh. Is he an atheist? A Jew? Or what?

I believe he's some sort of Deist type.... but he can best answer for himself.

[Prussia-Steinbach]

He isn't Christian.

I am betting on secular humanism, myself.

[Typhlochactas]

My answer to the question of the existence of god is ''How do you define god?''. From there, I can tell if I believe in 'god' or not.

Ah. Ignostic, I assume.
