Since most people here are going to hell anyway, you may as well get something out of it.

A rather extremely offensive comment to say in public, even if you believe it in private.

Hmm… A rather extreme little bit of heresy there. God is a person??

By the way, I find it interesting that you bless everyone in sight. Why not just say “God bless the world” when you get up in the morning and be done with it? Seems a little presumptuous anyway if one assumes an omniscient god; why does he need to be told who to bless (or damn)?

^^^ God never gets tired of hearing from people especially when there are those who don’t talk to him period for one reason or another and yes I believe that God is a person and the first thing that you quoted is another belief that I have the right to share and if you don’t agree, you can either say that you don’t or continue to look for something that you do agree with or is looking for things that you disagree with the reason why you go to a message forum at all?

God bless you always!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂

I love that there’s exactly one comma in there. Like she reviewed the sentence, decided that one spot needed a comma and no others were necessary, and hit submit.

So God is a person. Interesting… I presume that means, like ever other person, he had a mommy and daddy, can be killed, etc.

How do you know that God never gets tired of people telling him things he already knows, and people telling him why he should do things when he already knows the appropriateness of what is being asked for?

If you don’t want people teasing you don’t goad them, and even you should be able to guess that the reactions of telling people that a suicide is now burning in Hell probably won’t go over well, whether you believe it or not. Say what you want, but don’t expect people to react the way you think they are supposed to.

May Satan damn you to the deepest pits of Hell. :(:(☹

Nobody’s putting their hand over your mouth, they’re just saying your opinions are reprehensible. Freedom of speech also includes the freedom of others to criticize that speech.

Of course you have the right to be ridiculous in public. Just as we have the right to point and laugh.

Wearing the cape of sanctimony over a suit of hypocrisy only makes you all the more obviously absurd.

By all means, carry on!

How do you know McCready didn’t ask for forgiveness right before.  
And how can you trust an adulterer to tell the truth?

I was always taught sin is sin. Yet you decide which is worse.  
Rimes broke a promise she made to God yet that’s minor?

Exactly. And anyone with a working brain (yes, I know, but pretend it could be possible here) knows that people can live for a brief period of time after a head wound. Of course, that doesn’t matter in the damning department when you’d rather fellate one of your favorite annoying ass singers than show the tiniest ounce of compassion to someone who suffered a lifetime of pain. \< roll eyes \> It could get your brownie points in heaven revoked! Duh.

What the hell does “accept that James appreciates” your nuttiness have to do with what I said? Which was, any artist that is supported by a nutjob like you isn’t one I want to listen to.

Insisting that your sky fairy bless us every freaking time you post is forcing your religion on us. Saying that a poor tortured lost soul is going to hell for committing suicide is forcing your religion on us.

Oh, sure. We should just let you be an obnoxious asshole and not say anything. Have you never heard of silence indicates agreement? If you don’t believe in that, then you should be able to leave alone our “messages” that you don’t agree with, eh?

This isn’t a conversation honey - everyone here is pointing and laughing.

LeAnn asked the Lord to forgive her and since then she has not done again what she asked the Lord to forgive her of.

Yeah Mindy may have asked the Lord to forgive her, but what about her killing her boyfriend’s dog first? She took one life and then she killed again.

How about the fact she’s divorced and remarried?

_WHAT??_ First off, I haven’t seen anything about her killing a dog, but the major thing - even tho I think most people are not near as important as a good dog, _you_ are equating a dog’s life with a person’s?

What if a person is married to some that ends up being a cheater? My mom was in that position. Are you saying that she was wrong for divorcing my dad?

All that I am saying is that you are crazy to let one person be the one who makes your mind up on how you feel about another person. And what I say at the end of my messages are giving my two cents on anything is not forcing my beliefs on anyone. No one is forcing you to look at what you are not interested in to begin with. And I know about silence being a way to agree. Like I said, you have every right to point out that you disagree, but if you point it out in a war inducing way, don’t be surprised should that fight actually happen and if you want to point and laugh, that is your choice and yes God is a person.

God bless you two and my mom always!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂
