Knocking Yourself Up

"And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his son. Whoever has the son has life, whoever does not have the son does not have life. I have written this to those of you who believe in the name of the son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life."

Does this sound like a threat to you?

WOKEN up? Back in the days when English was our national language, she would have AWAKENED. I am sick of so-called writers and editors WHO (not "that") don't know grammar. Shame on you Newsweek.

I call him Yaweh because he is one of many Gods and Goddesses and refering to him as "God" would be misleading. Unfortunatley the name "Strife" was already taken by the Greeks and Romans pantheons, so I use the name you would recognise him by. ;)

And I realized that I mistyped "torture" a post or two down, lol.

He does not rule out of fear, but out of love and abundance of life. And just because Lithoman is a prfessed christian does ot mean he is mature in his walk with the Lord although i do believe that God will do great things for him sence he is attempting to stand up for the Lord.

There are always two parts to the equation: In this case man and woman. The fact that we need each other is ever presented in the ways we seek each other out. Contentment and generosity abound in a marriage that strives for the greater good. And heaven knows this world could use a whole lot more!

i think a woman who chooses to have a child should have evaluated herself if this is really what she wants. If she is emotionally financially and physically capable of raising her child then why not do it. Even if you are married before having one there is no security. A woman should be in sound mind and is ready about everything that happens when she decides to have baby. She could be single less than a year after the baby is born or become a widow. Who knows....

RiTZ and Lithoman

two christians telling two different afterlifes! Who would have thought it.

Also, once again, you made my point for me. I REFUSE to worship any deity who rules out of fear. If eternal tarture is the cost of knowing I did what was right, then I'm cool with that.

also, the word is spelled "Imagination" ;)

aaaaannnnnd back on topic, yours is not the only opinion or religion on this planet, we must accomodate everyone. Therefore, I don't give a rat's ass what your god says these women should do, they have a better idea of what they need. And why, if your god is so perfect, would he put a biological clock into these ladies if he didn't want them to do something about it???

Travis325 - well said

Does anyone really beleive a single mom or a single dad can raise a child as well as 2 loving parents. Sure there are situations where it is unavoidable and those situations are regretable, but when we start deliberately starting families with only one parent you can't tell me that is in the best interest of our society or that child. There are consequences to all our actions and somebody always pays those consequences. It may not be the mom who decides for whatever the reason that she is going to have a "fatherless" child but somebody pays. Often its the child but ask any educator about what the effect of single parent homes is having on our schools and our society at large .

It is interesting that you are still reffering to him as Yaweh though isnt it. Do you know what Yaweh means? Do you know where it is derived from. You see in the word Yaweh his glory is revealed and there is no denying it. I am glad we agree on this.

See that is where you are wrong again. I wont spend eternity telling him how great he is(even though he is) i will be in relationship with him which is all i want and which is all he wants from me. And you want simply fail to be there you will be tortured. Emagine breathing in fire and feeling you lungs burn only to have them restored back to new and burned again and again, and again. Emagine you skin melting off only to be put right back on and melting off again and again. This short life that i give to the Lord is well worth the sacrifice.

RiTZ

your self contradictions astound me.

Yaweh loves us so much he will torture us forever if we don't listen to him? WOW! I guess I hate my kids because I read stories to them, I tell them I love them, I hold them, I play with them, I teach them resposiblitiy, and my list of absolute child-hating goes on a long ways.

Last time I checked, men were still the overwhelming majority in this country. So if women's lib is sending this country down the toilet then you can thank male voters for standing behind them.

To all the women that bash and rip men, please remember that these men are also the children you claim to love. Girls, you can't have your cake and eat it too, even though that's what you think you're entiteled to..
