It aint all that bona fide

The following typical threads that plague martial arts sites will get moved here if not just deleted: 1 - My style is better than Your style" - 2 - "Internal & External" - 3 - Personal attacks - 4 - Threads that start well, but degenerate into a spiral of nonsense.

And I say Amen! to that. And yours is an excellent point and a healthy reminder to me. And on top of all that, I find it awesome that you looked up something in the Bible. I believe in Deuteronomy it says something about God being at your mouth when you quote His word. So even an unbeliever, at least for a time, had God right there. So close.

At the same time, this has been my experience of and on--that self professed "atheists" are often the most judgmental--all the while believing themselves to not be . To that I say, I answer all accusations (which is what you are doing) by the blood of the Lamb. You say "ha! look at yourself!". I say, "look at Christ on the throne".

I appreciate your self criticism. :)
I actually devoted myself to Christianity in my youth, without anyone pushing me in that direction. But when I was 18 or 19 years old, I realized the psychological reasons for my faith and freed myself from it. So it wasn't too hard for me to find the quote, although I had to look up the English version. I'm not a judgemental person at all. I have a lot of understanding for the weaknesses of humans, which doesn't mean that I have an anything goes mentality. Posting hot chicks is definately ok with me, though. :)

LOL. Apparently not! :)

Yeah, I thought I could be more like "one of the guys" on here, and I find women to be one of the most if the most beautiful things in the universe (how they act is a different matter altogether), but maybe you're right in saying that I can't.

Must have to point out for the record, that ONCE AGAIN (:)), bringing up the Bible/Christianity was not done by me. But I happily take up the discussion as it's a subject I enjoy.

There is one inaccuracy in your comment "Jesus is not my lord, but yours." As you said you were devoted to Christianity, then you know that it is not the case that Jesus is "a" Lord, but THE Lord. Lord of all, believer or unbeliever, as the verse says "every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord". I don't make up the rules, that's why I talked about throwing stones while living in a glass house. We're all living in glass houses. The good part is that as it says in 1st John, if we are faithful to confess, He is faithful to forgive.

That's not really a secret around here :D

That's logical as long as you believe in it. I don't think you'll find a whole lot of people who will say "I'm not a Christian, but Jesus is our Lord".

It's what Jesus would do, if he had a body like I do. I like stripping because it coincides with my deep deep hatred of wearing clothes.

bahahaha!
