That second sentence is so full of judgement--contrast it with the third: "when bombs fall, people die, there's nothing we can do about it."<BR/><BR/>That's kind of the point of this thread. You have alrady lost too many opportunities to express your sadness and outrage at the civilian deaths. You didn't. Christine wrote two posts about Zarqawi, without even mentioning the collateral damage. I'm amazed.<BR/><BR/>And you people accuse *me* of not distinguishing between good and evil, because I don't believe in your god.

We are thus called to remember the perfect, pure, and spotless sacrifice of Christ, and reminded to serve God with the best of our abilities, time, and possession, or our pretended obedience will be hateful to him. So great a punishment as death, so remarkable a death as stoning, must be inflicted on the Jewish idolater. Let all who in our day set up idols in their hearts, remember how God punished this crime in Israel.

Obviously, you don't care to discuss, of maybe your positions don't lend themselves to discussion because they are not really founded on anything defendable. I do think that someone more capable would have done a decent attempt though.<BR/><BR/>You are very confused, my friend. One definition of atheist, the one I favor, is someone who doesn't believe there is a god. Note how this is different from believing that there is no god (or is the difference too subtle to you?).<BR/><BR/>More importantly: atheism--even in the sense that you give to it, does not imply no difference between good and bad. That is a fallacy that people like you keep bringing up. Sorry, it doesn't follow. There's a lot to distinguish between good and bad if you want to form a society of people that can be stable and provide for a place where everybody can try to maximize their happiness.<BR/><BR/>Better people than me wrote about that. But you're not reading even what I write here, so I don't hold big hopes about you trying to seriously think about any of this.<BR/><BR/>In your last paragraph, you say there's not innocent people but only people at the mercy of God. So then abortion is OK? Or are those babies not people? If abortion is not OK, then what happens when an American bomb in Iraq kills a pregnant woman?<BR/><BR/>And no, I don't expect an intelligent answer.Juan Buhlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17739144037936378958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-1149997095341797252006-06-10T20:38:00.000-07:002006-06-10T20:38:00.000-07:00rjuan, YOU ASK .."BTW, since I am still here: what...rjuan, <BR/>YOU ASK .."BTW, since I am still here: what I find very non-Christian of you (Christine) is that you wouldn't mention the collateral damage.

If you think you being able to find some 'bad' Christians makes you feel better, then bravo! that's exactly what 'athiest' do, right?. Relax Man, there is no God, no right and wrong. We are all just like animals, a baby is a fish, a father is just a dog. <BR/><BR/>Make a note: there are No innocent people, just people at the mercy of God. Accept that, or carry on my friend. <BR/><BR/>Now I am off to go Killing, I would say Hunting, but that implies a factor of failure. ;)Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10281126424462398813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-1149961212397144182006-06-10T10:40:00.000-07:002006-06-10T10:40:00.000-07:00BTW, since I am still here: what I find very non-C...BTW, since I am still here: what I find very non-Christian of you (Christine) is that you wouldn't mention the collateral damage.

I'm just throwing a couple of verses back to Christine in a futile attempt at showing how stupidly contradictory that collection of texts is.<BR/><BR/>I'm really curious though. I wonder what you expect by telling an atheist that he is a tool of Satan. Do you really think that my lack of belief in God is because I believe in the devil or something like that?<BR/><BR/>Regardless of your motivations, I have to say I'm dissappointed of you. I went to the Bible and made an honest attempt at looking for verses related to Christine's question. Your answer, instead of trying to shed light on the topic, maybe telling me why you think I'm wrong, is just a snide comment.<BR/><BR/>In your fantasy world, I am a servant of Satan. Tell me, in that same world, how good a servant of God are you?Juan Buhlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17739144037936378958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-1149912325685474292006-06-09T21:05:00.000-07:002006-06-09T21:05:00.000-07:00If I may, Paul Schafer,Rejoice in the fact that Go...If I may, Paul Schafer,<BR/>Rejoice in the fact that God is all Just! We may never know here on earth the eternal destination of those we love or 'hate'. A man's heart is only known by God. Faith in Christ requires us to surrender our earthly experiences and desires and give them to God. That task, also helps us through prayer, draw closer to His truths and His will for our lives.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10281126424462398813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-1149911386326680372006-06-09T20:49:00.000-07:002006-06-09T20:49:00.000-07:00juan,no offense, but you my friend have mastered t...juan,<BR/>no offense, but you my friend have mastered the Bible! Good job! Your verse knowledge is also known to 'your' God, perhaps you may want to reconsider your EXACT rank with Him, before tossing His words into a mix of justifying Evil, eh? I know of another who did the same thing, and since I know you know Your Bible, you get my drift.<BR/><BR/>Christine,<BR/>God is Sovereign and Perfectly in control. As earthly sinners ourseleves, we are to have a sense of loss, but not from our own earthly experinces, but from God's perspective. That sense of loss for God, draws us closer to Him and not our own earthly 'feelings'. It also helps us to better draw closer to Him and Strengthen our relationship with Him through prayer and self relection of just how vunerable we are to Evil. Great question! keep asking and God Bless!Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10281126424462398813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-1149886249314106522006-06-09T13:50:00.000-07:002006-06-09T13:50:00.000-07:00Christine,Thank you for posting about what i said ...Christine,<BR/><BR/>Thank you for posting about what i said in BHT. I enjoyed Joe Carter's post as well. <BR/><BR/>I think of my dad and my wife's dad, both of them not saved, wondering would they die in their sins or would they accept Christ before they die. How different or similar would our dad's deaths be to that terrorist? I wouldn't rejoice over our dad's deaths. They will face God's horrifying wrath for eternity.KShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01128894027656496745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-1149878523664772642006-06-09T11:42:00.000-07:002006-06-09T11:42:00.000-07:00I think it should be ok for you to be happy.No nee...I think it should be ok for you to be happy.<BR/><BR/>No need to even show pity if they don't believe in god:<BR/><I><BR/>Deut 7:16 And thou shalt consume all the people which the LORD thy God shall deliver thee; thine eye shall have no pity upon them : neither shalt thou serve their gods; for that will be a snare unto thee.<BR/></I><BR/><BR/>In fact, you should kill them yourself--no need for them to be terrorists:<BR/><I><BR/>Deut<BR/>17:3 And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded; <BR/>17:4 And it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, and enquired diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel: <BR/>17:5 Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, even that man or that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till they die<BR/></I><BR/><BR/>In any case, you should rejoice:<BR/><I><BR/>Psalm 58:10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.<BR/></I>Juan Buhlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17739144037936378958noreply@blogger.com
