As far as I can understand the Trinity nonsense, yes. Makes about as much sense as those claiming that the 6 Star Wars movies make a coherent, logical narrative.
What, you’ve never done that?
To be fair, for all the outright hostility and derisive dismissal (and I don’t know which would be more obnoxious) kanicbird receives around here, he’s always pretty polite.
Yes, he is careful to wrap his misogynistic, blame-the-victim theology in nice words.
Hey ! Don’t knock the Allfather, he died for your sins you know !
Well, he will, come Ragnarok.
And not for your sins, as such. More to show how big His balls are.
Still, he dies, more or less.
The point is, show respect, heathen !
Well, it is Wotan’s day today and tomorrow is Thor’s day. So that’s a little respect.
The same was said about december. Didn’t stop him from being a hateful troll.
These comments have been pretty mild from Kanicbird. As him about pre-birth deals with demons and such. Ask him about how an eight-year-old who was raped and got pregnant should have died in childbirth rather than have an abortion. (Which was a medical necessity, since she wouldn’t have survived). Ask him about stillbirths being a result of evil spirits.
The man’s a sicko.
Yup, we’ve had this soul tie idea from him before…
My God and Lord is Jesus, the one who died to remove us from those evil vile things we read about in the OT. So I will withdraw your charges against my Lord.
But only as a one-time courtesy. Future fees will apply.
Mary’s son still has Paul to answer for. Not to mention the Inquisition.
Anyway, you’re just trolling at this point, so I’m out.
Folks, kanicbird is a religious ideologue. I don’t say that pejoratively; it’s just a neutral statement of fact. The fact that s/he believes in the Christian Trinity and reveres Jesus as his/her Lord necessarily colors his/her perceptions and interpretations of everything. I’m rather surprised that it’s rattling anyone’s cage. S/he and I have gone 'round the bush once or twice on creationism and religion in general, but it never got me worked up.
Yes, his/her rhetoric and analyses are annoying, and yes, very little of it is what we would call very “scholarly”, but that’s just who kanicbird is. Don’t let it bother you.
But … but that would be no fun! And there would be no reason for me to pop some popcorn and pull up a chair! Party pooper …
You’re new, Cyningablod, so I’ll just give you this one and save you the trouble of going through all the him/her, he/she nonsense: kanicbird is on record as having identified his gender as male.
Cool. Danke.
GOOD GOD! There are people who believe this? We are worse off than I thought.
Wait so what you’re saying is…
*George Lucas *wrote the bible? Now it’s all starting to make sense!
kanicbird, are you also Robert L.? I found soul ties being explained here. Looks very similar to your opinions.
He says there’s no actual Biblical mention of “soul tie,” but he believes it just the same. He explains how it can form from marriage and friendship, and supports that with scripture. But he doesn’t do the same when he says he believes soul ties can cause harm. He doesn’t quote any scripture about harmful soul ties. Do you know of any?
I don’t know who Robert L is, so no.
I believe there are many soul ties in scrtiptures, though not called them. I believe the Bible is written about the spiritual for the non-spiritual, or to put another way describes a 3-d world to flatland beings.
One instance of many that I believe shows a soul tie is in Sarah and Abraham (Sarai and Abram). Pharaoh took Sarai as his wife (who is the head of the land of slavery). Later I believe this allowed the slave woman Haagar to have access to their marriage, and the son Ishmeal.
I think Skald gets that from how you describe your god.
