Yeah, kraft, and you remind me of shirley temple on pcp. Puffin out your cheeks on your good ship lollypop.

But anyone with half a brain can read what your doing and saying here. Obviously that doesnt include yourself, though.

btw, I have never seen princecess bride so I have no idea to what you refer.

Where have you KD????

On probably at least 30 different religious threads...at least.


And dbl is correct....you're confused and don't have a clue. And you continue this 'game' of yours on and on and on.


So I do agree with the profe on one of his points....you always state it....like looking for a fight.

Prof was being sarcastic, Linda. You sure don't know him very well.

Also Linda, you've mentioned a few times about the games I'm playing and have been playing. What exactly are you referring to so I know what you mean?

"Can someone, anyone accurately explain what God is?"

First off God is a He, not a she.

He wears cloud colored clothing because, not to do so, would make the angels feel inferior.

He talks in a deep bass voice with a very demanding attitude.

He's a practical joker, of course you probably know that already.

That's the best I can do, not having met him personally.
Amen,
Reverend Colin

Why would anyone presume they REALLY know what or why any god "is".


PROVE IT!


And, it doesn't matter anyway....we'll all find out the truth in the end...or not....and it STILL won't matter !

No proof, no proof, no proof, no proof.....all air.

Well, actually I can answer that question PI.

I happen to know "What and Who" God is absotively, positootly......

he's the 4th Mr.Muggins!

I know this without a shadow of a doubt, because from the very first time we did the nasty I saw stars and spontaneously cried out his name over and over and over again....Oh God...Oh God..Jesus..Oh God..Jesus..oh God


So now you all know how I found God. Maggie

Prayer is personal, not something defined by a dictionary. What an apalling denigration of something so powerful.
It's utterly unbelievable to me that anyone here could tell another person that their religious beliefs were wrong, or invalid, or "confused" simply because they don't fit into that person's set of beliefs. What prejudice, what bigotry.


I agree. It is utterly unbelievable to me also, profe51.

Oh yeah, 'what prejudic, what bigotry to point out that there is a distinct difference between praying and 'wishful thinking'.


GIVE ME A BREAK.


Yeah you too 'pray' that your favorite candy bar will be in the store when you go shopping and consider that the defination of prayer. NOPE....it's hoping for something, wishing for something....it's NOT called praying.


Praying is communication between one and their higherpower...their God.


What utter nonsense to believe or define it as praying.

Linda - for someone that complains about people mocking others religious beliefs, don't you think it's just a little hypocritical that you are now entering day 3 of chastising Krafty for hers?

ROFL!!

She's not chastising, she's saying call it what it is.

It's funny, for most of you, the dictionary is the all defining source and authority on other words - used as reference in any argument here, but just not THIS word.

Peter, oh profound professor...do let me know when you hear the cock crow three times...

It's kinda like you here, Helen..constantly referencing discussions from other boards, nonrelational to the topics posted here.

Why do you suppose youre doing that? And why do you think people here cannot read those boards for themselves if they were are inclined or interested to do so?

No, fenix, I truly don't.


I kind of see KD's reference to prayer like the profe said:

What an apalling denigration of something so powerful.


That's how I find praying to a rock, a cat, or a God you've made up in your mind.


I have NEVER if my life heard someone who is not religious say what KD has said here. So I am responding to it.

Linda,
You're beating a deaf and dumb horse unless you like rolling in the mud why continue?

People who are not religious will never understand and the people who are religious already know.

Linda, you have taken a quote out of context and twisted the meaning to suit your agenda again.

Actually, Profe said,

If you would go and do some reading by religious philosophers, for example Teilhard de Chardin, a catholic priest, or almost any other writer from almost any other faith, you will note quite readily that they all speak of a personal relationship with god. In other words, they all speak of an individual coming to his own, personal conclusions of what and who god is. This, in my opinion is the essence of sprituality, the essence of true religion. Prayer is personal, not something defined by a dictionary. What an apalling denigration of something so powerful.
"It's utterly unbelievable to me that anyone here could tell another person that their religious beliefs were wrong, or invalid, or "confused" simply because they don't fit into that person's set of beliefs. What prejudice, what bigotry. Kraft has been called an atheist, when she clearly is not. Not to denigrate atheism either, a perfectly rational conclusion that many have come to."

Linduh says,

""or a God you've made up in your mind."""



Linduh, THERE IS NO OTHER KIND !


Now , IF you know of a real god that is NOT just in somone's mind, PLEASE POINT IT OUT!


YOU CAN"T....it's ONLY IN YOUR MIND.

Some here try to dictate our political beliefs and our board behaviour so why not our God or religion also?


If nothing else, it is always amusing to see their frustration at not being able to do so.

Of course, Ron, you are correct.

But we did have one poster here asking the difference between prayer and 'thoughts'.


I sure as heck don't want them to believe a wish or a thought is a prayer...

But you are right....those who don't know...never will...

dbl - It's funny, for most of you, the dictionary is the all defining source and authority on other words - used as reference in any argument here, but just not THIS word.


Girl, you just so good at hitting the nail on it's head in most situations we read here.

YOU may not want them to believe that but you have no right to dictate what or how anyone believes and you have no control over it.


Please realize that everyone has the freedom to believe whatever they want to.... and they will.

Now Linda, please show me the god who ISN'T in your mind

C'mon, is this going to be yet ANOTHER question you refuse to address?

Show me!

Does he sit with you and chat like he does with bushy....since you allege you've seen him , what does he look like ....enlighten us poor heathens.....
