Zone1 Asking Jesus a question

[Hafar1014]

It's the perfect thread for him to bash a religion that is not his own. He has an ax to grind with Christians.

Some ideas should be challenged

Some ideas should be challenged

I don't believe people's faith should be challenged. That's between them and God. It's none of your business how I see God. Our country was founded in part based upon freedom of religion.

 

[pknopp]

He's already explained that.

I don't recall Jesus answering.

His statements don't bother me nor does it affect my beliefs or relationships in any way, so.........

I agree. It doesn't bother me that some people believe the universe didn't begin, but that doesn't mean I shouldn't correct their errors.

In matters of faith and religion, I can not adequately correct what I see as errors in people's belief. Only God can.

I have every right to challenge the distortions you made regarding Judaism.

That would be true within your faith. But not true outside of your faith. You have no business telling a person of another faith what his faith teaches especially when it is wrong and is being used to attack that faith. Live and let live.

Sure you do, but that's not what you are doing. What distortion have I made?

I have never had my faith attacked by man I guess.

Have a nice conversation with Hafar1014 and you will.

 

[pknopp]

Have a nice conversation with Hafar1014 and you will.

No, not at all. Him having a different belief than me doesn't attack or affect my belief at all.

 

[ding]

No, not at all. Him having a different belief than me doesn't attack or affect my belief at all.

His different belief is that your beliefs are wrong.

 

[pknopp]

His different belief is that your beliefs are wrong.

So what?

 

[ding]

So what?

So have a conversation about that with him and get back to me.

 

[ding]

So what?

After you do that you can cast your stones at me.

 

[pknopp]

After you do that you can cast your stones at me.

No reason to.

 

[ding]

No reason to.

Your laughing at post #135 seems to indicate otherwise.

What are you doing, personally, that would help someone

personally? aside from donating to causes, i buy an extra item or two every week ( bogos are great ) until i have a full bag full of groceries- then bring it to our little town food pantry. i also donate a lot of stuff to the thrift store - run by little church ladies - where the cash they get goes to those that can use the help.

--or the earth in general?

i can remember the very first earth day - where i went alllllll over my neighborhood & picked up garbage. now i pick up trash up & down my very long road a couple times a month, easy ... & i recycle, reuse, & compost. i have a prius. i never waste water.

after all - doesn't the bible command us to be good stewerts of the earth?

I don't recall any commandment that tells individuals to yell at the government to do something when individuals can/should be offering their personal help.

lol ...nobody said otherwise.
