Argh this thread is just pointless lock it I say, we are getting nowhere fast, just like other forums I'm on religious topics should be banned as they create too many issues.

I'll leave you with this note, if god is so great why do 7m's have BHG's.


What issues are being created? 12 pages and it's been civil

Toyota didn't torque down the headgasket enough and most owners don't take good care of their cars?

silly mortal, you do not need to follow a set religion in order to reach god. on the ten comandments it said, you shall know me as your one true god.
my father does not go to church(as do i for the most part), we believe that god built this world therefore it is his house. you dont need to go and listen to a priest to be closer to god, you can be your own priest teaching yourself.

To a point. You need to establish a relationship with Christ in order to enter into the kingdom of heaven. Part of that is reading your Bible, understanding what it says, having fellowship with family and fellow Christians, and spreading the word of Christ to the non believers.

It helps to go to church - Its like a mechanic going to the latest and greatest ASE seminar about the new car comming out.

Warm beer is a stereotype - i prefer to stick to the cold stuff (cause thats all thats there) and only then, stuff with more than 5% ABV....try drinking 20 pints of 8% cider in one day - i did, it was great! :beer:

Also, being british does not = tea drinker...making it for my parents by the time i was 10 put me off for life. That, and an allergic reaction to it ;)

No.

Think about it, if there was no free will then we would be nothing less of mindless robots.

You're starting to remind me of the owner of Robo Gym on Dodge Ball.

"You know what I know what I think you know that I know what you know that you dont' know what I thinnk you know."

Take what we are saying and stop trying to explain it away with *poof* new mathmatical theory.


But you seem to be missing the point I'm trying to make. If God had the ability to dictate whether or not we get free will or not. Why would he give it to us knowing that many would not accept him and burn in eternity forever. If he loved everyone, then pure love from him would be to have everyone love him and join him in heaven wouldn't it?

And what would be the point in creating people on Earth anyways? Why not just let us be in Heaven with him right away where everything could exist with him?

My first pic was a little uncivil.

Im afraid to send my turbo to MDC now lol.

My craftsmanship shares nothing with my religion.

I do not hate you nor would I do any thing to be spiteful towards you being a customer.

I simply have a great distaste about how you go about being a troll on these boards and your poor choice/taste of pictures.

if we did not know how to hate we would not know how to love. if there was no free will, it wouldnt be love it would be the way. think of god as a shepard and us as his sheep. if one sheep runs away, god trys to find it. if the sheep does not want to be found then god returns hoping that the sheep will come back.

Good questoin, I guess I don't have an answer you're looking for.

I do have an answer to your second part of your question - The whole purpose for God to create the Earth and humanity is to worship and love him.
