===> "Since you "claim" to be an atheist...how can you say you can be without sin?" <=== Sin means to me, doing "bad" things to good people. My work involves doing "good" things for other people. ===> "An atheist would not know what sin is....but you know....you know." <=== Not only that, I know..... I know.... and I know! Sounds like we have two different understandings of the word sin. Your understanding of sin means, doing an act that deviates from your religious doctrine, whether it hurts someone else or not. ===> "You are a pretender, just hoping that there is no God....but you know better." <=== If there is a God, then we are all in trouble. A God that can witness so much misery, especially against children, but refuses to do anything to help the victims, is not the kind of God that I want, or that I would hire to be my God. And...... I pay well! ===> "It is sad that you will answer for millions of murders by abortion, and I know you are aware and I know you are scared." <=== How am I so much different than God on this issue? God could stop a lot of suffering, a lot of rapes, a lot of child abuse, a lot of child kidnapping and child murder, and yet God refuses to lift a finger. I abhor abortion. It is one of the most repulsive, ugly, horrendous, but sometimes necessary decisions forced upon women. The sinful thing to do would be not to provide help for women who must choose abortion. I am glad, though, that you said that you like me and do not hate me. It brought a big smile to my sinful mug. <g>
