FSTDT Quotes for September 2002

Quote# 412

I believe the scientific evidence points to a young earth. I've been studying geology for nearly 20 years. At first I was an old earther and couldn't understand how anyone could say the earth was less than 10,000 years old. The longer I studied the evidence the more I was swayed over to the young earth side.

Quote# 413

Christians should understand that we are the ones with the largest bullseye painted on our backs. We are the #1 enemy of the Illuminati and are targeted for special destruction, and elimination.

I heard on KLOVE just recently some statistics that support the Christian principle thinking...

And these are from memory so if someone knows how to get the real numbers and source it would be great...

94% of the Constitution is paraphrased from the Bible (alot from Deuteronomy)

36% of the above is actually word for word.

next will come a parade of atheists falling all over themselves to tell all of us here just how happy and self-actualized they are and how much private charitable work they do and how moral they are and how they have all been happily married and faithful for dozens of years and how they are terrified of the U.S. becoming a "cotton mather-esque" puritanical theocracy and that's why they are here, selflessly dedicating themselves to being internet keyboard commandos to fight the horrid evil of Christianity.(hint:someone is lying!)

True Christians hate abortion even as God does for the abomination that it is.

Quote# 417

But Christianity is not a religion. It's a faith based on the idea of having a personal relationship with God.

Quote# 418

[Commenting on a story where a guy ordered his stepdaughter to beat up her little brother, who died as a result]

God instituted the death penalty. It was instituted with such evil murderers in mind. Both parents should receive the death penalty. And WHY was the 10 year old girl NOT arrested and taken to juvenile hall? She, at age 10, was well aware she was killing her brother to have kicked and punched him for that length of time. I suggest she sit in the step-father's lap in the electric chair.

I think it's a good move to abolish evolution in schools--if they take out that factor, maybe then the scientific 'dark ages' will arrive, but that may in turn lead to a spiritual revival!

Quote# 421

Of course Harry Potter isn't about Christianity. The reasons it opposes Christianity is that it supports magic. Magic is bad according to Christians. In the old testament you were commanded to kill anyone who was a witch. So you don't think kids really get into Harry Potter adn try to do magic and stuff? Ok, that's you opinion. All I want to ask is when is the last time you worked with kids? L[ord]O[f]T[he]R[i][ings][/i] is alright because magic isn't it's main theme and if you know anything about the books the only people who could use magic were semi-gods sent from the west (or god) to help battle Sauron. It's the Christian idea of God sending the Holy Spirit to empower and help us in our daily struggle against Satan.

[Arguing for the veracity of the Columbine martyrdom story about Cassie Bernall after it was exposed as an urban legend]

Hmm.. Maybe things we THINK are PROVEN, are really HOAXES.

In fact, this HOAX existed so LONG, someone wrote a BOOK about it.

[On Noah bringing little baby dinosaurs on the ark to conserve space]

And why not? There's no reason not to bring aboard juveniles instead of outgrown grandfathers. Their life expectancy would be greater anyway.

Quote# 426

[Advice to a woman whose husband is serving an 11 year jail sentence]

"For richer, for poorer. For better or for worse." has got to mean something. You both vowed to stay with each other no matter what. If you love him, stay with him. If you don't love him, you should still stay with him. It's a commitment.

Technically, hubby has the discretion to divorce his wife in this case and it wouldn't be a sin, but then both of them would need to stay single until one of them passed away.

They're afraid of having to keep their zippers done up till marriage...

Seriously most athesits are simply self righteous, arrogant and snobby. They don't like the thought of havin' someone better than them.

Quote# 428

[On the Canaanites, who in the Old Testament were slaughtered, men, women and children, by the invading Hebrews]

The people against God was actually on Gods land and thus was TRESSPASSING, and infact it says that if a person is tresspassing, you are allowed to defend your home even if death is needed for protection- it is not considered murder. No sin

[On the Bible]

never in history has it been scientificlly determined to have a single flaw.

You will find websites saying other wise,
course you will find websites saying that the haullocost (sp?) never happened either and that the jews fronted the whole thing.

Quote# 430

looking at rocks with instruments that we made with our own so called intelligence with nothing to actually compare anything to.

versus a book of historically correct facts and evidence of a perfect geneollogy that dates back nearly 6500 years ago...

and I saw this...
What evidence are you considering? Nothing has been proven either way, that is b/c of the lack of or lack of reliability of the so called evidence.

We christian discard all your scientist's so called evidence for the same reason scientist discard the bible.

I repeat, your evidence is no more valid than the bible.

If you learn from your parents that apples are purple, and that you beleive the color red is purple and pruple is red, you beleive that it is true.

However, unless you stay at home your whole, in security of your limitations, you will soon find out taht others thik differently and that they infact realized the truth.

[The fundie definition of 'freethinking'!]

It wasn't choosing to be a free thinker, it was choosing to be free of thinking.

Our mind has limits, and everything we judge and measure comes from those limitations.

Freeing yourself of them give you the clear veiw of the truth outside of the walls that block you. That wall being 'thinking'"

[Replying to 'if someone had a gun to your kid's head and asked if you believed in God']

Trust in God. All things work for his Glory and it will be best in the end. Thus, never deny God. If your child is killed he won't have to go through the hardships of life and is with the lord so double bonus to him.

Recorded religion started with Judaism. That's a fact.

Judaism, and later Christianity, are not based on cults, they difined religion as far as we know.
