Ahh, that's an interesting philosophy...but an idea can't become manifest except in imagination. Or can it? Many philosophers and writers ask that question: can an idea take on substance? There are actually many who think God to be nothing more than an idea. Interesting. Thank you Eon. Do you...

Satan in the flesh...there's a contradiction in terms if I ever heard one. Economies are not largely based on currencies...there are so many factors here to go into that I won't even begin. Just suffice to say: that ain't it. And I wonder if indeed such an antichrist will come. Or of a rapture...

...heal others? One particular John got his head whacked off for not keeping his yap shut about a king and his stripper. Another John got boiled in oil and dumped on an island just because he was Christian. Wait. Okay wait.When Jesus granted the twelve (including John) powers to heal, and raise...

Like what kind of protections? Too many fantasy books conjure the image of a cowled ancient crone bent over muttering some gibberish as he twists his hands in circles, standing in a protective circle of ancient runes carefully etched into the stone or dirt so that way the spirit he summons in...

Precisimo. But Eon, are you a lukewarm Asatru or a fanatically dedicated Asatru? I doubt most Christians would label themselves as fanatics for God...primarily because that would create this big wide gulf between them and their relationships to the people of this world...huh. Weird. I probably...

There's too much stuff going on in the world for me to accept it's all just coincidence...China having some interior development (meaning roads across China...meaning the Kings of the East will travel the roads to Israel...I dunno how THAT works, or where such a prophecy is to be found)...Iran...

"Removing onself from this world" is an idea that appealed to Paul as well...and not such a one that seems so extravagantly bizarre provided one is of the same mindset as I am, that being, this world shot itself to hell in a handbasket, it's damned anyways, so why do I care about it anymore? I...

If you're wrong of Paul's words...then we all go to heaven? How exactly does that work? What has Paul said that would condemn those who hate the very idea of God or eternal life after this to eternal life with God? Whether they want it or not? Atown...perhaps John was merely trying to safeguard...

Quite easily. We can mask evil and make it look funny, awe-inspring, overwhelming, interesting, dramatic, tragic or whatever. We call it a movie nowadays. Sometimes we call them books. Others, plays. In essence, art is as art does, and art doesn't change. Look at Giger. Very beautiful work. I...

Well, Eon, Call of Cthulhu bored me to tears...I couldn't expect the board game to be much better. Yea...chess. Thinking to slay your opponents meticulously and maliciously...verily the demons of thought and rationale have clung to your mind and have poisoned your ears with the whispers of the...

Why not? Yeshua Hamashia (or however you spell it), Yerushalem...it was an easy step to be misled to think such. No. He's not Jewish. So. Letters. The Pauline Christian's out...what of Peter's letters? Or John's revelation? Or the Gospels? Forget em all, I say. I mean, they were directed by...

Precisely, illegal. I can't prove the Bible's factual. No one ever will. It's freaking impossible. We can't dig about the ruins of Sodom and say: Hey, look guys, this is meteor flame from Heaven, very specific carbon compound composition. Proves God did it. We can't do it, which is why I say, as...

I don't know and I can't answer that Eon. If I could, I'd love to. The only thing that makes Him elevated above us is that He's God. He was born as God, and He died as God, and he came back to life as God. The three days thing...that messes with me. Why three days? Was it just to prove to the...

If there's something out there that wants you, for whatever sick purpose it can fashion, Eon, I'd figure that to be an evil thing. Spirits don't like us physical things, for some reason. Angels don't mess with us save on God's commands, and they're here as messenger boys, nothing else. They're...

Well Big J, forget going to the NT for books...just read in Chronicles, Kings, and many other OT books for references to the works of Nathan the prophet, Gad the Seer, Gad the Seer and so many more. Many works we have not found...possibly destroyed, possibly hidden, possibly just not for us, and...

Hardly evil. It's a game, but nothing more. What you make of it is what can make it evil from neutral. Two guys play this all the time in W. Geo. I'm moving out of that class, so I could care less about what they do anymore. But they seem to have fun. It's too complex for me, and too dull. I...

I suppose. However, the question is: who's right and the hidden question is: does the belief matter a whole heckuva lot? I can answer the second. Yes. It does matter what facets of Christianity you avidly support and believe in as total dogma. It does. Because it affects your relationships, your...

No one's making a direct post insulting anybody's age in any of these posts... And I have no idea as to which post you're answering. I can only assume a recent one. Do you or do you not agree that God was a cold and merciless God when he performed that deed of hardening Pharaoh's heart...or was...

I doubt highly the words and claims of many who self-profess themselves to be men of God. I'm a cynic, born and bred within myself. So basically CG, what you just said is that God doesn't predestine people...He just knows what all's going to happen.

So...the Bible's inaccurate when it states that God hardened the heart of Pharaoh? It should read: Pharaoh, a cold-hearted bastard from the start, hardened his heart when he swore he would let the Hebrews go. I mean, if God made it harder...then God was directly involved in the slaughter of the...
