> [@James\_Otto\_Sweet\_Heart](#): > > ^^^ The Lord’s word says taking your life is still a sin and since its the last thing that you do before you do, where do you think that you will be going? You are mistaken, there are no specific biblical verses where it says not to commit suicide. Nobody is interested in how some long-winded apologist wants to spin things, a specific biblical verse would do just fine. And do you think Jesus is burning in hell for doing such? Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. – John 10:17-18 The bible also instructs in Judges it’s better to kill yourself or have someone assist you than to be killed by a woman. Samson also killed himself, but I guess like today’s godly motivated terrorists bombers, it’s okay to kill yourself if you can take your enemies with you. ---

Woohoo! The never repeating, but ALWAYS repeating asshole is now on ignore!! I can’t see that lying shit anymore or the disingenuous “I really do bless while I’m damning you to hell!” happy face love fest. It can blather on all it wants and I’ll never have to even see it again. Yay!! Praise be to the Invisible Pink Unicorn! ---

> [@James\_Otto\_Sweet\_Heart](#): > > Y’all have your beliefs and I have mine and if you can’t leave it at that, oh well. Its your wasted time and not mine. Nobody is questioning your right to have an opinion or us having ours. If you truly believe in that the bible says you are not to commit suicide, you should be forthcoming with it, or quit pretending it says something it doesn’t. It’s a matter of integrity if you care about that sort of thing. ---

> [@James\_Otto\_Sweet\_Heart](#): > > You are not going to change my mind either. Good point. See, I’m an atheist and since you’re so knowledgeable, maybe you can change my mind. I mean all of this talk about hell is kind of making me scared. See, I can’t seem to reconcile some of the stories in the bible with a loving god. Can you explain why god commands repeatedly throughout the bible to kill people? Why he commanded his people to “smash baby’s on rocks”? Or “pillage an entire city raping and slaughtering every single being alive?”, or the story of Jeptha? Or the story of Lot? Some people say these are Old Testament laws, but Jesus clearly states that he has not come to take away these laws. What gives? Also, can you clear up some of the contradictions. In some parts it says faith alone is necessary to get into heaven, when in others it proclaims good deeds with faith? I really could go on and on but I think you get the point. I can show you where these stories are in the bible but you probably already know anyways. So can you like explain this so I can start living a good Christian life? Hopefully you can do such a good job of spreading the word of god that you can convert us all!!!:):)🙂 ---

It’s really one of the most banal and unimaginative trolls we’ve had though. This one doesn’t even get my hackles raised at all. Pretty ordinary effort, I give it a .25/10. Meh. ---

> [@Monty](#): > > Wait a minute! I thought Der Trihs “didn’t do the Pit”. No; I simply avoid any pitting of myself, and usually of other posters. I read and post in Pit threads all the time that aren’t either of those. This person is an exception to my general rules; I don’t usually put people on Ignore either, certainly not so quickly (I’ve only just become aware of J.O.S.H.). Counting J.O.S.H. I’ve only 5 people on my Ignore list, one of whom is the banned pedophilia-proponent **Cesario** , and the other 3 took me years to get to the point of Ignoring. ---
