I've been persecuted a lot in this thread. Perhaps I deserved it, so I apologize if I forced my belief on people.
My prayer is that Jesus can penetrate a non-christian and plant in him a godly seed.
Your not being persecuted for your beliefs though. You're being persecuted because you're an idiot.

I'm pressed but not crushed, persecuted not abandoned. Struck down, but not destroyed. I am blessed beyond the curse for his promise will endure, and the joy of the Lord will be my strength.

That is rad Eddie (yes I still use words like Rad and Stoked). I remember reading a Post from you a long time ago saying you lived in Austin before. So any interesting stories to tell? Would enjoy hearing if so.
I was just up there in Austin in January but it was just to get a tattoo at 9pm at night from my tattoo artist then came straight home on Greyhound Bus. Besides that being with out a car I haven't really had the chance to enjoy the city since I was 22.
Living in San Antonio, I met and talked with the Henry Thomas (the guy who played Elliot in E.T. He was really cool and down to Earth at the bar we met him at, he didn't look like he had any of the money he made as a child.
I also ran into the guy from Blood In Blood Out, Jesse Borrego who played Cruz the guy that was addicted to Heroin in the movie but there really isn't any interesting stories to tell except my I started feeling jealous and angry at my girlfriend when we met Henry Thomas because my girlfriend at that time (in my 20's) was flirting so hardcore with him it was like I wasn't there for segments during the conversation. Looking back now, if I wasn't there E.T. would have totally ed that girlfriend of mine.

Kane said it best: humans are hateful by nature. I might be a christian but I'm not a saint. When I walk into a sanctuary, I get blown away by the holy spectacle of God and realize how utterly despicable I am.
I have put a dab of idiotic, comic relief in this thread but most of the time, I was dead serious about my belief.

What you said is the truth but I'm in a weird mood right now and I feel he is lost, confused, and is being brainwashed.
Or he is a radical troll.

Ok, weird mood is over. Spam is right, you are an idiot! God created people to be hateful by nature so he could enjoy this? According to Kane this sounds correct.
I know people who beat their kids a little to harsh when they get punished but still give them enough love so the kid didn't grow up hateful. But God is just making us hateful for kicks?
Sounds like one very long snuff film God is watching. And what about this rehabilitation God is suppose to offer when you are forgiven?
