You consider all Christianity false, so I'm honored that you consider me false as well.

It is not right to mock the Hell-bound, so I won't.

Ragtime, can you save me ? :( Obviously the Chosen One doesn't have a hotline to God, so just tell the big guy to save Kalister1.

Kalister1, you should know that everyone is responsible for their own salvation. Are you a beliver or atheist? I've lost track of who's who.

I know you're not really interested in the Truth. I would not help you find it even if your desire was sincere. So go ahead and mock me all you want.

But you're obviously such a genius. I feel so horrible that you won't help me.

By believer you only mean Christianity right?

Because there's A LOT of other beliefs besides Christianity.

Yes, I realize that. And I do not rate them against each other like leading brands of dish-detergent. I respect them all.

Yep. And our so-called learend friend's moniker speaks for itaelf, although periodically......

Seriously, there are people here who seriously do believe what they are saying, and there are more faiths than brands of detergent, it just gets so easy to mock the afflicted when it comes to some of the arguments they put up.

Oh, Raggy, that's WHY I'm the Chosen One, and you're not.....

Define witchcraft? Remember the poem about the person who stood by , and let people be carted off to the death camps. When the police came for him there was no one left to speak for him.Remember - Hitler did not like anyone with AS, and nor did he like Dr. Asperger.
Be careful who you want to burn it could be you.
