Chris <<You mean to say you think God wants a bunch of bastards running around in His kingdom doing whatsoever they please? You have the wrong God! I think what your really looking for some great sugardaddy in the sky who grants people their every whims.>> That is not what I said, Chris. I believe what I stated to be true, and I certainly dont run around trying to be a bastard and looking for my every whim to be granted. That is not how I have lived my life, nor is it what I am trying to achieve. I do try to live by the principals that I believe to be right. I think they are more "Christian" in nature than many of the principals displayed by the so-called christians on this thread. Mark

Hi Emile! Hey, another really interesting post. Listen, I hope you are paying attention and don't intend on bothering these other people. I really want you to concentrate on me. I thought of another question. This is hypothetical, so I will understand if you cannot answer it; Let's say (hypothetically) that there are other people on other planets. Let's say that one of them comes to Earth and lands right next to you and comes out to talk (He has a decoder). He says he has come to help mankind and has some technology that will help cure some diseases, like cancer and AIDS. He asks you to help him. You ask him if he is born again and has accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. (I know the conversation would be longer than that, but I'm leaving out the less important aspects for the sake of brevity.) He says he has never heard of Jesus Christ, and his planet has a policy of not interfering with the religious beliefs of other planets. You don't accept this, and ask the question again. He gives you the same answer. You now know he is a demon from Hell, so you have to kill him quick. But before you can get your pistol loaded, he disintegrates you. Then he goes to your neighbor and gives him the cure for cancer. My question is: By offing you, did he perform an evil act or a good act? becoming more impatient at your non-response, pete
