Being resurrected does not mean that you did not die at one point. All the mockery...

Well personally I'm not trying to mock Christianity. In all seriousness, I thought that the whole point was that you're not supposed to understand everything about it, because God is inherently unfathomable. And yes I do think that some Christians use that as a convenient excuse to do whatever they like, but somehow I don't think that a religion really makes any sense if everything about it follows clinical logic. -------------------- I think this is really wonderful.

The resurrection. Oops, mispoke. Meant to say the end of days when J comes and Christians ascend to heaven w/o suffering death. You know, as the song states "...two men standing on a hil, one left standing still, I wish we'd all been ready..." Not meant to mock Christianity, meant as a poke on ultimate statements. -------------------- "Dikiyoba ... is demon ... drives people mad and ... do all sorts of strange things."

Mockery is just a different sacrifice of the lips. All publicity is good publicity, &c. —Alorael, who isn't quite sure what God does with the lips. They're easier to maintain than babies, though, and they probably smell less than burnt offerings. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

The rapture is essentially the same as ascention imho. The body will not survive it. Thus death unto immediate eternal life. ;) -------------------- "Even the worst Terror from Hell can be transformed to a testimony from Heaven!" - Rev.

The etymology of the term "rapture" is a little disturbing. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

I may be loaded with bug spray at the moment but That must be one of the single most horrible websites I've ever seen on all the internet. TV Dinners are one of the greatest thing a person could ever get forced to eat. Some folks might say that the bug spray issue is not a good on to bring up. So I'll explain. You know that frontal and temporal lobe damage I suffered, Well my brain is swelling and as a result I'm often prone to severe complications when exposed to tiny amounts of all kinds of chemicals. Seriously that membrane that blocks out things from my brain is more permeable than it shpoukld be. -------------------- The great light bulb converses its thoughts in a fashion most particular to its complicated nature.

Oh my gosh, are all you people serious? Jesus is the greatest guy that ever lived. He is certianly not a part of any problem unless you mean as the solution. And Elija and Enoch were alive when they went up and are still alive. Elijah will possibly come back here too. And Just to get the story straight, Jesus was alive and came here and died on the cross and then rose again and was alive again. And when he went to heaven it was as a living person. The whole point was that death had no hold of him as he was sinless and beyond reproach. Now any body who can do what he did deserves a lot of respect. Jesus was great even before he came here and he really proved his greatness as king of kings when he would go through all he did as if he were a sinner out of love for God and the people God has chosen. Now he will live forever with all things, even death under his feet. -------------------- The great light bulb converses its thoughts in a fashion most particular to its complicated nature.

I'm not a troll and I never have been. And I don't say what I do to inflame or insult. I defend what I believe is right. I've already apologized for any REAL offensive things I've said. Anyone going to pieces over my religiosity is a little too thin skined. At least I thought so. I forget. Certainly seems that way. I mean, have I gone to pieces because some people are agnostic or atheist? Nope, I fell apart when some people put down Jesus. Seriously though, can anyone name one deity I have insulted so far?

Here's a serious question: do you think God (or Jesus) takes Himself so seriously that all jokes are out? The Old Testament really doesn't make God seem like much of a joker, but it also doesn't have much in the way of jokes. He certainly did pull a few pranks (baby at 99!) in his day, though. Jesus, at least, was human. If he was so charismatic and lovable, he probably wasn't some dour, stiff-necked perfect and perfectly irritating man. He could probably laugh once in a while. —Alorael, who is pretty sure that either the platypus or some of the more bizarre properties of the universe are signs of humor on a divine scale. Which one depends on how scientific your leanings are. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |
