Show me the post where I said true references to the Bible are delusional? Gladly! I wrote the following where I included clear biblical references. Message 16498104 "Give me the money, man" You sound like the gentile begging Jesus...because even dogs can eat crumbs!! Your daughter is healed but the fig tree must die. I will also kill all the pigs instead of just healing them...GERONIMO!!!!! YOU THEN RESPONDED WITH THE FOLLOWING: Message 16498113 I suppose you somehow could find a way to say your response was appropriate and in context. Somehow, I think it would not only be shallow and mean spirited, but absolutely delusional. Clearly, you were calling my response delusional. And what WAS my response?? Yeah pal. You got it. My response was 3 biblical references. See what trouble name calling can get a person into? Why do you feel the need to reduce your "arguments" to such immature levels?? Name calling is the refuge of tiny minds. As I am sure you know, the references were to: Matthew 8:32 Matthew 21:19-20 Matthew 15:24-27 Now, you were either stating that I was delusional about those references being in the bible, or you were acknowledging that the references, in and of themselves, were delusional. Your response was to that post, and to that post only. Only people ignorant of the bible would claim that the references were "delusional". You are a follower of the bible, so the only things you could have meant as being delusional in the response were the 3 references of which my response consisted. Frankly, I found your remark gratuitous, irrelevent, and detached from our conversation. It stands for what it was: simple minded name calling. Now you wish to deny you were calling the bible delusional, but that you were trying to call me delusional as you had called me a liar. Well, Gao Seng, what difference does it make? Either way you are claiming the references in the bible are false. But, of course, the bible says clearly that Jesus killed the fig tree, killed the pigs, and healed the daughter of the gentile after she grovelled and admitted that, as a gentile, she was like a dog eating crumbs from her Israelite master. The important part here is not just that you have been wrong, but that you are such an insulting fellow. Do you act like that in church?
