I'm also wondering how you can call such a limited being God with a straight face.

You know Dave for a supposed limited being, you seem to have a large ego concerning self. Pico loves the Lord. I do too. You do not it seems, but unlike Pico, I love a good fight (and I never lose). I think you are in the wrong area of CR, and I think you should leave. Go where you are more comfortable my friend...
and I'm not asking

p.s. this note has been sent to the administrators and moderators...we are getting tired of Christian bashers (me especially)

It will break your heart.
Take care man.

your religion breaks my heart already, and I read the bible. I was confirmed into a church. I know how it works to an extent.
look if I say I trust something, and I really believe that I am putting my trust into that thing, it doesnt matter if its real or not because I am telling myself it is.

Oh, screw that crap. There is no religion that will save you. There is only one being that can...and He is jumping for joy in front of you...only you can't see it.

Re: why does god punish flawed creatures that he made forever
Just so I'm absolutely clear, Quahom -- are you, in your role as moderator of this forum, ordering me to cease posting in the Christianity forum?

Actually, what I just told you is simple, DAVE. Do not insult the Christians. Or you will cease posting in this forum...
I don't think, DAVE, that I can make it any clearer, shy of removing your posts.
And if you, DAVE, wish to play games with me...

Re: why does god punish flawed creatures that he made forever
I'm confused. First you tell me to leave, then you tell me to stop insulting the Christians, which so far as I can tell I have not been doing to begin with -- unless, that is, Christians find probing questions insulting. Which is the case?
If, as a moderator, you're ordering me to cease posting in this forum, I will, of course, comply.
Edited to add: Not really topical, but I'm wondering -- why are you using my name in all-capitals?

Alright, since you don't know me, I will give you the benefit of a doubt. I am "asking" you to be nice. I am a mean man, when it comes to my Christian forum. I am not a soft run Dave. There is another, named Juan23. CR is a place of dialogue, not bashing. So if you are confused, I hope I just dispelled that confusion. We are a couple of mean Christians...and we watch out for all. And I did not tell you to leave...I said be nice. (respectful).

Excuse me, Joshua, but that does not appear to be the case. What you said was,

and I'm not asking

Just so I'm clear, in spite of those words, am I allowed to continue posting in this forum? Of course there is the provisio that I am nice and respectful, but my position is that I have consistently been so throughout my part of these dialogues, and I cannot correct a fault in my tone that I do not see. With that in mind, is your position as moderator that I am or am not allowed to post in this forum?
I will suspend my posting in this forum pending a response.

That is exactly what I said. If you can't respect the Christian forum, please find solace elsewhere...and I make no excuses for what I say. Christian bashers are not welcome here.
I'm I perfectly clear now?

Joshua
oh, and I can recap your posts here against Christianity if you have forgotten what you have said...be happy to.
