Reyginus: I hope you also know that every state practised the religion of the head then. Was their ever an atheist province in the time of king david?There might be an officially sanctioned state religion but there was and will always be individuals who go their own way. Else Saul would not have found the witch of Endor, else there would not have been 7000 in Israel who did not bow the knee to Baal &c. 2 Likes |

aletheia:Whatever you're saying must be in line with the time of King david. Except it wasn't him who wrote the psalms. Being so, the prophet of baals issue shouldn't come up in the first place. Their are no individuals that will also go their way because they must abide by the decision of the state on every issue. I'm wondering. Are you of the opinion that all atheists are fools? 1 Like |

Reyginus: Are you of the opinion that all atheists are fools?What do you understand by the word fool as used in the Bible? See Ps 14.1 & Romans 1:19-22 for the answer. |
Re: Top Ten Signs That You Are A Christian. by Nobody: 12:34am On Jan 23, 2013 |
Romans 1 verse 21. They KNOW God, but they do not give him the honour that belongs to him, nor do they thank him. Instead their thoughts have BECOME complete nonsense, and their empty minds are filled with darkness. This confirms my statement. 2 Likes |

Reyginus: Romans 1 verse 21. They KNOW God, but they do not give him the honour that belongs to him, nor do they thank him. Instead their thoughts have BECOME complete nonsense, and their empty minds are filled with darkness.^ I see. Stop selectively reading those verses. No one is born an atheist. Atheists become atheists from a position of seeing the evidence for God. Didn't you see this part in verse 22: Professing themselves to be wise, [size=18pt]they became fools[/size]. As far as I am concerned: if the Bible says it, then that settles it! 1 Like |

aletheia: Can you put this "fools" in perspective, so we are clear what you understand it to mean? |

Reyginus: 1. Wrong. Outraged is not the right word to use. Anony taught you well. |
Re: Top Ten Signs That You Are A Christian. by Nobody: 9:24am On Jan 23, 2013 |
aletheia:The bible didn't say anything like that. What you fail to understand here is the implication of the word 'know' as used in the passage. Nobody who 'know' God can come to claim he doesn't exist thereafter. No atheist ever knew the person of God. They only think so. The people the bible spoke about in that passage were the children of God who turned away from his will. Just like some christains now, who know deep down in their heart what God is capable of, but can't stop doing evil. These are the fools of Psalm 14:1. |

Reyginus: The bible didn't say anything like that. . .Seeing a direct quote from Romans 1:22, you still blatantly go ahead and say: "The bible didn't say anything like that" What Bible are you using? I can see that you are in thrall to political correctness. Every English translation tells it as it is: [b] New International Version (©1984) Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools New Living Translation (©2007) Claiming to be wise, they instead became utter fools. English Standard Version (©2001) Claiming to be wise, they became fools, New American Standard Bible (©1995) Professing to be wise, they became fools, Holman Christian Standard Bible (©2009) Claiming to be wise, they became fools International Standard Version (©2012) Though claiming to be wise, they became fools King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.) Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, Aramaic Bible in Plain English (©2010) And when they thought in themselves that they were wise, they became insane. GOD'S WORD® Translation (©1995) While claiming to be wise, they became fools.[/b] Now because you desire to be "in" with the atheist crowd and politically correct. You say the Bible didn't say anything like that, and seek to wrench the verses out of context. The language in Ps 14.1, Ps 53.1 & Romans 1:19 - 22 is clear enough: ezme:^ Here is the perspective you seek: The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. . . And fool in the Bible verse in consideration here means a stupid, wicked, impious, foolish, contemptible and vile person. 5 Likes |

What exactly is your point Rey? |
Re: Top Ten Signs That You Are A Christian. by Nobody: 9:46pm On Jan 23, 2013 |
aletheia:If fool in the bible means that exactly, why then do you think the word(from Psalm 14) is exclusive to atheists? |
Re: Top Ten Signs That You Are A Christian. by Nobody: 9:48pm On Jan 23, 2013 |

Reyginus: 1. Wrong. Outraged is not the right word to use.Lovely! cyrexx: Reyginus, will you for once try and make meaningful contribution to this thread and stop playing this anony-wannabe games by these silly questions you are asking.Why are you getting irritated? . . . I thought you were all for questioning claims and not accepting things blindly. Why do you now have a problem with people questioning your claims? |
Re: Top Ten Signs That You Are A Christian. by MrAnony1(m): 1:13am On Jan 24, 2013 |
Reyginus: Pardon me cyrexx. I know I replied your post. I don't know what else you want. Where I ask questions, I only want to understand what really is meant by the terms used.You don't have to apologize. He threw out a bunch of claims and you legitimately questioned them. The burden is upon him to explain himself. It is unfortunate that they hope that triggering the "anonyism" cop-out will excuse their embarrassingly poor fanatical arguments. |

Re: Top Ten Signs That You Are A Christian. by Nobody: 2:45am On Jan 24, 2013 |
Mr_Anony: Your reply was too late and irrelevant. You had nothing on that thread. You were asking dubious questions for four pages rather than making arguments supporting or against the issue of the thread. You were shamed by a honest christian called Frank. You were the best christian apologist and he was trying to learn from you but all he got was Anonyism. 1 Like |
Re: Top Ten Signs That You Are A Christian. by MrAnony1(m): 2:59am On Jan 24, 2013 |
Logicboy03:My reply was to Frank in particular, I believe he would be the one in the best position to judge it's relevance and not you. You were shamed by a honest christian called Frank. You were the best christian apologist and he was trying to learn from you but all he got was Anonyism.Lol, seeking cheap points again are we? First of all, I never regard myself as "the best Christian apologist" and I never ask anyone to learn from me. I always point us all to Christ. I see no shame in not accepting a baseless accusation and if demanding that you provide an explanation for an accusation that has no basis is wrong, then let me not be right. As long as being right means accepting the nonsense you spew out without questioning them, I will happily remain wrong. ...And if "anonyism" means that you can't deal with the questions posed at you, then that's just too bad. The trouble is with your reasoning and not with me. |
