From Rapture Ready

I know it's evil of me, and I'm quit disturbed by the notion that I had this thought. I also know that it's evil of me to put this image in your head, but I just can't help myself : )


When ever I hear KK, or other nutters, talk about rapture
I get this metal image of them sitting hounched over in the corner of dark room laughing like Igor while bouncing up and down on somthing like this

This is nothing new or unigue to xians. From the inquisition to the Inca's cutting peoples hearts out. You can't tell me that people could do that day in day out and not have a major chubby. But a certain seqmant of the human population has always been and I guess always will be into BDSM (evenif they are in the closet and call it gods punishment.)
 
Anyway, this was the person's from the OP reply to the rest :



I am dissapointed in him.

Sounds to me like safely-wishy-washy words to get himself out of a jam. He/She has not committed to anything, has not admitted that all the "good" advice is correct, and has not actually accepted it. I think this person is just trying to get out of the discussion with a whole skin to be able to think about it clearly. I wouldn't be at all surprised if this person started backing away from these poisonous opinions.

Not a clear win for sanity, but not a definite loss, either.
 
If you really loved Christ you would follow His teachings. Matt 10:14

There is no shame in walking away, Kathy. Go carry the message that you hold so dear to people who are ready to receive it.
And why can't you receive the love of the truth? What really holds you back?? The Bible says men love their darkness more than the light because of their deeds. Do you think there may be some truth to this? I sure do.

I do too. that's the only reason why I can think you enjoy the idea of other people being tortured while you are wisked away. The rapture really is an evil wish.

We DO love the truth. That's why we invest our time in the search for FACTS, and why we turn to science to find it. It's why we turn our attention to SERVING others, rather than ranting at them. It's why when we discover our deeds do damage to others, we quit doing them.

In other words, Kathy, we do what you do not. We face our fears, and go forward with courage to do what is RIGHT. What holds us back is clinging to superstition and silliness, hoping that some MAGIC might turn things around. We are learning to not pick and choose what facts we like and what facts we don't. We're learning to handle things in a manner that suggests rationality and integrity. You lack that kind of courage, Kathy, and so does CD. Basically, we have chosen to act like responsible adults.

You might want to try that sometime, Kathy. It might open your eyes to something wonderful.

Hmm, that's a tough one. Where can I find the answer to that question? I know, it appears in every one of the several dozen threads you have started over the past several years. I and other posters have been carefully explaining our issues with the Bible, but you are incapable of listening. There is one Bible truth I agre with: there are none so deaf as they that will not hear.

I cannot think of a worse person to carry God's message than you. You are incapable of listening to even the simplest of responses. Forum readers on the fence are far more likely to listen to us than they are to listen to you.

There is no shame in walking away, Kathy. Go carry the message that you hold so dear to people who are ready to receive it. To do anything else is simply pridefulness on your part.

No, Kathy. I have not committed any sin that requires a blood sacrifice. I am a good person who does not "love darkness more that light." I see no truth to your claim.

Fixed it for you.

My desire for honesty.
The fact that I've been you.
That now, I cherish my freedom and my reason.

I sit and watch movies while I make beaded bookmarks.
I take care of my two cats, wash my dishes, cook tasty meals, and sometimes make love with my husband. I mourn my mom, admire my sons, and anticipate my newest granddaughter next month.


Send me to hell. I'm what's wrong with the world.
 
"The faith in which I was brought up assured me that I was better than other people; I was saved, they were damned ...Our hymns were loaded with arrogance -- self-congratulation on how cozy we were with the Almighty and what a high opinion he had of us, what hell everybody else would catch come Judgment Day."

(Robert A. Heinlein, from Laurence J. Peter, Peter's Quotations: Ideas for Our Time)
