Took the words right out of my mouth…
Speaking of T-shirts, over the weekend I saw:
“Jesus is coming, hide the porn.”
I mean, if he really was coming, wouldn’t he know where you hid it?

Its good of you to give steve-o the benefit of doubt. I do believe that you are correct. The problem is that most people that use the methods that steve-o uses are taught that those methods are right. They refuse to even listen to anything else, and are steadfast in their beliefs.
The problem with his methods is that they seek to incite people, and breed dissention. None of that actually furthers the opinion of god in peoples minds. I am not saying he is a bad person, or anything like that, or that he isn’t christian. I am just saying that his methods are inherently wrong.
However T-Nation has become one of my favorite places on the web. If I want to start a thread one day about my beliefs in the christian faith, I would like for it to not be ruined because all everyone has ever seen are posts about " Accept Jesus or DIE!".

Hate him? I’ve yet to read that anyone hates god. Skepticism and denial/refusal are not hate.
No way, kroby, it is indeed HATE… I could understand “indifference” towards the Faith, but what I see (what I always see) is HATRED.
I have spoken to many Atheists (not every single one of them on the planet, mind you, just a few dozen), and although they attempt to frame their argument with “indifference”, their hatred very quickly pours out… like on this thread.

I think what people tend to hate is being told they should believe in an invisible sky wizard and that they will be punished for eternity when they die if they don’t (nevermind if they lead a good, honest life).

Are you posting from a time machine?[/quote]
Sorry V, but this is really funny. The previous post was almost 2 years prior.
The ivisible sky wizard, some might find funny others will find blasphamous. How about an invisible sky spirit. Not very funny, but more on point to some.
See the Bible was against witchcraft so being called a wizard would be against what the Bible says. I think I just took the funny out of everything with this post.
