    jgnat: Care to respond to my other questions? Or do you only react to insults? Well cut the insults then. That would be nice for starters. Which question in particular? HIB

    Hib's hasn't "answered" a question in the longest. And you're definition of facts is very opinionated Hibs. Fact is, God has no facts other than words that say baseless claims like you have said for the longest. Really research what logic and reason is if you truly think your God is logical and Reasonable.

    Hibiscus, I will repeat my questions, just this once for your convenience.

    Think about this..... You said my message is lost. Are you not lost too?

    Hibiscus, consider this, I have been a Christian for twenty-plus years. I have never denounced my faith. I am embarrassed that you think your technique of internet witnessing represents the love of Christ. No, I am not lost. Why did you assume so? Was it because I disagree with your approach?

    If the world had stuck to the 10 commandments don't you think we would be better off?

    How about the two? Love God and love your neighbour. I think many of us are still working on these two, and it turns out to be a lifetime project. Just look at all the misunderstanings you have generated here by not listening carefully?

    Just like we'd have more virgins on the earth now
    Now that is just off the wall. Are you praying for the return of the Gnostics and the Essenes?

Well i'm really sorry if I offended you in anyway jgnat. Maybe I appear to be harsh but that was not my intention ....at alllll. Besides I believe people take a lot of things for granted. They lost being compassionate. The fear of the Lord... Deuteronomy 6:2
    That thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged. How about the two? Love God and love your neighbour. I think many of us are still working on these two, and it turns out to be a lifetime project.

I meant that in this world there is so much pornography going on and so forth that you can hardly say "Hey in that country all the girls and boys are virgins" Hibiscusfire

    I meant that in this world there is so much pornography going on and so forth that you can hardly say "Hey in that country all the girls and boys are virgins" I don't really understand that statement. I doubt anytime in history all of the girls and boys were virgins. Men could care for a wife at 12 and that was regular practice even in your bible days. So I don't really get this.

Are you aware of 5 year olds having sex in the school? Well it's a fact. I've spoken to teachers where they confirmed this horror. Also there are people who allow their kids, or children to see them in the act of sexual intercourse. Sick I tell you....just sick

    There are people killing people in the name of your God. There were people who sold sex slaves at birth to companies back 4000 years ago. Your words aren't that powerful. Rather than claiming that this afterlife will complete it solve the problem in the real world. And that's enough from me in this thread also.

    I am relieved you finally answered, Hibiscus.

    Well i'm really sorry if I offended you in anyway jgnat. Maybe I appear to be harsh but that was not my intention ....at alllll. Besides I believe people take a lot of things for granted. They lost being compassionate. The fear of the Lord..

    Hibiscus, you called me "lost". That is offensive. I am beginning to think you don't keep track of what you are really saying..

    Do you love me too?

    The Lord disciplines those He loves. The people I really don't like, I ignore. I am not ignoring you yet, but I am getting close.

    I meant that in this world there is so much pornography going on and so forth that you can hardly say "Hey in that country all the girls and boys are virgins"

    We can't make babies without having sex. There never was a prevalence of virgins, or else humankind would have died out. Or are you suggesting there is greater promiscuity these days? This is not a new problem. Ancient Roman parents worried about the same thing.
