o.o, I agree with you, but it was mushing up inside me and i had to just let it out. I`m different sorry, see i havent gotten that much energy out in a while,a nd it just kinda came out lol Maybe its the fact that there are so many Athiest kids in my schol, and they are really irritating. Me and a bunch of other kids get those same emotions inside of them, and somtimes they jsut come out unexpectedly, sorry  |

not to tell you how to do your business but...
Matthew 5:43-48
You have learned that they were told, “Love your neighbor, hate your enemy.” But what I tell you is this: Love your enemies and pray for your persecutors; only so can you be children of your heavenly Father, who makes his sun shine on good and bad alike, and sends the rain on the honest and the dishonest. If you love only those who love you, what reward can you expect? Surely the tax-gatherers do as much as that. And if you greet only your brothers, what is there extraordinary about that? Even the heathen do as much. There must be no limit to your goodness, as your heavenly Father’s goodness knows no bounds.
Matthew 5:38-42
You have learned that they were told, “Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth.” But what I tell you is this: Do not set yourself against the man who wrongs you. If someone slaps you on the right cheek, turn and offer him your left. If a man wants to sue you for your shirt, let him have your coat as well. If a man in authority makes you go one mile, go with him two. Give when you are asked to give; and do not turn your back on a man who wants to borrow.
Luke 6:27-36
Love your enemies; do good to those who hate you; bless those who curse you; pray for those who treat you spitefully. When a man hits you on the cheek, offer him the other cheek too; when a man takes your coat, let him have your shirt as well. Give to everyone who asks you; when a man takes what is yours, do not demand it back. Treat others as you would like them to treat you. If you love only those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. Again, if you do good only to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do as much. And if you lend only where you expect to be repaid, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to each other to be repaid in full. But you must love your enemies and do good; and lend without expecting any return; and you will have a rich reward: you will be sons of the Most High, because he himself is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be compassionate as your Father is compassionate.

Fabio, if you were Jewish, and had not read the Torah, are you not a faithful Jew? You realize how small the print of the more-than-1000-page-book is, don't you? I garauntee you not many people have read the entire bible... I saw the movie twice. Both times, everyone was balling, but me. Does this mean that I missed the point of the movie, or just that movies don't make me cry easily, at all?

Well, this may offend some people, but i though i must step in since I`m very religious, I believe in GOD, for all of you AThiest and people that say theya re there own religion, all i ahve to say is go to hell! and that is exactly what is aid to a couple people in school! You can feel god all aroudn you, each one of us is related! two people make babies, thsoe people make babies, thsoe people make babies, suddenly the whole world is populated. What really pisses me off is dumbass people like you! on talk shows, while I`m trying to get ready for school saying bullcrapola! like "We need to take Under God out of the pledge" and "The passion is a horrible movie that should be sued" and all those skinny twig guys that sit there with their little nasel voices, and magee about that! i punched an Athiestb girl at school jsut for saying "when you die all you do is get consumed by dirt" i got suspended for that one, but it expressed my rite! and i intend it cmpletly, i`m not big into church, because as a kid, it bores me, but i go just to be in GODs house and feel the power, i jsut sit there and read ASOUE! i think everyone should believe in the Lord, because one thing if hes really there, you wont burn for all eternity, adn you will be able to lvie for all eternity in heaven, all the Lord asks for his for people to believe in him, not to take his ame out of the pledge, and let very brillient men make movies about him, ok i`m rambling, so i`ll jsut say Sorry for offending any of you non-christians, I`ll shut up now  Wow. You're offending me as a Christian! First of all, it's not your job to condemn people, it's God's. So, it's not your place to yell "go to Hell." Perhaps that's what will happen, but it's not by your. Anyways, if you want them to change their mind and go to Heaven, I'm sure the way isn't by yelling at them and punching them. Next, I don't think church is the place to be reading ASOUE. You're there to worship God, and learn about him, not be entertained. If you're bored, that's too bad, but the point of church is not to keep you amused, so boredom is no reason for doing other things during church. Next note, violence isn't something Christians are s'possed to be involved in, not for personal grudges anyway. You're s'possed to LOVE your enemies, not condemn them. Next, I can understand if you haven't read the whole Bible, it's hard to get through. However, you should know the main points. Such as, say, things said by Jesus himself, which is what Kobolos was quoting. One would also expect you to know the notation that means it's from the Bible (the book-chapter-verse thing). On a side note, when father is capitalized, it means God, your heavenly Father, not your dad. Also, when did God ever say, "Don't take my name out of the pledge, and let brilliant men make movies about me"? I don't recall ever hearing that command. Next, as for 'reflexes' for punching the people... well, that's only a reflex if you train it to be. If people bug you about being a Christian, you shouldn't punch them, you should say, "Yeah, I'm a Christian... so?" and then ignore them. If they say that you're dumb for believing in God, just shrug it off, and let them think that, because it's not supposed to matter what other people think of you, anyways. If you punch them, they'll just think, "Wow, those Christians are a bunch of jerks." Whether it 'shuts them up' or not isn't s'possed to matter. In the Bible, Christians are told many times that they'll be persecuted for it. So, if you can't put up with it... |

and quit hitting Swans in the eye...I saw the pics.
I'm a Pagan and *I* have read the entire Bible...as well as the Apocrypha...(and the Dead Sea Scrolls) so there is no excuse. Get to stepping little Jesus Freaks (and I use that term lovingly, DC Talk rocks.)

Pagan:
n- 1. a person who is not a Christian, Moslem, or Jew; heathen. 2. One who has no religion. 3. Formerly, any non-Christian.
adj- 1. Not Christian, Moslem, or Jewish. 2. Not religious; heather.
[Middle English, from Late Latin paganus, civilian (i.e., not a "soldier of Christ"), from Latin paganus, country-dweller, from pasus, village, country.]
So, there you have the 26 year old definition of Pagan.
Horray for DC Talk!
And, for the record, I am in the process of reading through the Bible.
