Gorillas aren't a belief, they're a fact, by definition. You can go find a gorilla, look at it and touch it, right now. Others have already done so. Your 'belief' or lack thereof in gorillas doesn't change that others are looking straight at one right this very second, or that they have a physical existence.



God is a fact. You are constitutionally against finding Him, so you will never truly look. I am with God right now. How much more proof do you need than that? I can't make you find for him.

Some people arent as vocal as me. In person I only speak when asked or if it comes up. I have no shame in what I believe at all. I'm still growing in my faith but a far cry from a spiritual giant. Its great knowing I have other believers here. It doesnt seem like it very often. But hey they are out there somewhere



So you've yet to reach the zealotry to actually murder abortion doctors, kk.. Good to know.

The lady was not right in the head. Her behavior was filled with so much anger and hatred that made it painful to even watch. I feel very sorry for her in some ways. I can't even imagine living with so much wrath towards everything.

so what, exactly, is it that jeebus is saving us from?

a life of hedonism and self indulgence?
fun and exploration? good and bad experiences that will late shape us into wise old men?


tell us exactly what we are supposed to be saved from?

God is a belief. You can't pick up a God, or show me a God; you believe in God, so you feel that you are with him right now. You are not actually sitting next to a physical God. That's the difference between fact and belief.

It's apparent I can't change your beliefs.

What belief? My belief in the definition of the words 'fact' and 'belief'? I consider those to be 'facts' as well. The important thing to note about a fact is it can be proven to others.
