Balloon guy 158 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 AwwwwI have no quarrel with that description.see, we agreeI don't get the rate of evolution thing. But sure, you've probably heard of the Butterfly Effect, the idea that say, a butterfly flapping its wings in Brazil can set off a hurricane in the Caribbean. (especially since you are an Ashton Kutcher fan)Ashton Kurcher bugs me. But I see everyone of his movies it seemsWho was the Sci-Fi writer who wrote that book about going back in time and building a series of platforms, so you can hunt a T-rex, and a guy steps off the platform and kills a butterfly and changes everything?Good book if I remember Link to post Share on other sites
crowTrobot 2 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Incredibleflaimingunabletocomeupwithanarguement speak"cult-speak" is my argument. you aren't saying anything that distinguishes christianity from any other religious or cult belief, particularly in the context of this thread.you're basically just arguing from your own a priori assumption that it's true.

Balloon guy 158 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 "cult-speak" is my argument. you aren't saying anything that distinguishes christianity from any other religious or cult belief, particularly in the context of this thread.you're basically just arguing from your own a priori assumption that it's true.To save you time, how about we just assume that any post made by anyobody that doesn't toe the "There is no God" line, you will respond with the words: cultspeak.There, now you can go back to being miserable that so many people believe that this is a Christian nation and that atheist make up a smaller minority than people that believe in bigfootyour welcome Link to post Share on other sites

Someone should have hugged you more. Then, smothered you and buried you behind the hill with the rest of the heathen kids that crossed the prophet. You have no idea that amount of faith it takes to choke the life out of another ten year old because God told a guy to tell you to do so. No idea. So, enjoy that high horse, friend, while you still can. Link to post Share on other sites

Forced marriages, Indian casinos, gay truck stop love, it's everything a boy could want.There was this boy I sent to the 'lectric chair at Huntsville Hill here a while back. My arrest and my testimony. He killt a fourteen-year-old girl. Papers said it was a crime of passion but he told me there wasn't any passion to it. Told me that he'd been planning to kill somebody for about as long as he could remember. Said that if they turned him out he'd do it again. Said he knew he was going to hell. "Be there in about fifteen minutes". I don't know what to make of that. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I'd see here there,Shimmering in marina blue or gleaming in sunfire red, and I would boost her, and just blast to Palm Springs, instantly feeling better about being me.

I always knew you had to be willing to die to even do this job. But, I don't want to push my chips forward and go out and meet something I don't understand. A man would have to put his soul at hazard. He'd have to say, "O.K., I'll be part of this world." 1 Link to post Share on other sites

He ducked his head and then flicked the lighter and swung the flame out over the darkness like an offering. Coldness and damp. An ungodly stench. The boy clutched at his coat. He could see part of a stone wall. Clay floor. An old mattress darkly stained. He crouched and stepped down again and held out the light. Huddled against the back wall were naked people, male and female, all trying to hide, shielding their faces with their hands. On the mattress lay a man with his legs gone to the hip and the stumps of them blackened and burnty. The smell was hideous.Jesus, he whispered.Then one by one they turned and blinked in the pitiful light. Help us, they whispered. Please help us.Christ, he said. Oh Christ.
