"For thus says the Lord, That after seventy years in Babylon, I will visit you and perform My Good Word toward you, in causing you to return to this place. For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Then ye shall call upon Me, and ye shall go and pray unto Me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek Me and find Me, when ye search for Me with all your heart.

Therefore I speak to them in parables: BECAUSE SEEING THEY SEE NOT; AND HEARING THEY HEAR NOT; NEITHER DO THEY UNDERSTAND." Matt 13:10-13.

herald, this is in a "discussion" category. You never address what others say, just post quotes out of context that may be related in your mind but which look more like spamming to others. You might try to add some personal comment to your posts to actually make this a discussion.

BTW, the truth is only relative to your beliefs. Just ask a Muslim or Hindu. Their truth is considerably different than yours.

Metaphorically, he's just pissing against the wall, for which god promises a horrible fate in the Old Testament, the massacre of everybody who lives near the defiled wall. Six times: 1 Samuel 25:22, 25:34; 1 Kings 14:10, 16:11, 21:21; 2 Kings 9:8. Doesn't specify how it'd work with a virtual wall though. Virtual massacre of some sort? Massive server failure? Deletion of all posts by unbelievers?

I too noticed there is no personal comment, that would generate discussion and
the faithful don't want that, it would mean people with different ideas would then
engage them and that would or could create doubt. Its like the flood story and
the fire story in the old testament,. If we go back thousands of years before we
find a similar story on the walls of Babylon, and that would lead us to believe
the children of God stole the story and adapted it from the pagans. Of course
we can't get too upset, the Christians stole all of the modern holidays from the
pagans. How uncivilized is that?

Absolute Truth

Lyrics and Vocals by B.(Green)Fish(66)/0dds R Evolution

V1

Some will say, that's it's almost over.
There's people out there,like to mix hate with fear.
Out of the darkness ,hear Chaos is screaming .
"Run for the hills..the ending is near.."

V2 

Never inclined to follow the leader?
Yes it's much harder, to make your own way.
Some will try to tear you to pieces .
Gotta pull it together , If you know your ok..

V3

Out of the wild ..and into the clearing ..a calming voice calling ."Your all welcome here.."
All civilized humans ,come now, if you hurry .The Future is yours ..Cuz Your Vision is clear ..."

V 4.

Answer the question ,Find the solution .
The truth is the lost let it all fall away..
Pick up the pieces and put it together..
The past left behind ,future's leading the way
 
- Oh You know you can't look at the sun without shielding your eye's...It's an absolute truth ..It's a truth that no one can deny ...

- Oh You know we can't fly to the sun still there's some who will try..Although Odds r evolution, still leaves open some room for surprise..

- Creeping ,Crawling, Walking ,Running, Flying , Soaring ..Where you going ?...-


It's amazing that we're here at all , that we're still alive..Although Odds R evolution still leaves open some room for surprise...


It's amazing that we're here at all.keeps us asking why .Your aware,We're awake ,All alive ..Just open your eyes.

All ways going... Toward somewhere.. To the future..Forever forward..

Keep on Moving, upward ,out there...Ever forward..into the future


End .

Although Odds R Evolution , still leaves open some room for surprise.
It's an absolute truth that we're here, and we're all gonna
die die die die die die die ....


And that's the Absolute Truth ..!( From What I heard/Read/Was Told, by someone once, Anyway ..)

Or Whatever....iITt. is What It is ...Time After Time...;)

The truth is that this evil god has not given me a wealthy wife. Therefore, he is most unworthy of being worshipped. After all, he supposedly treats everyone alike and gave a 1,000 to Solomon but not to me.

Bassturd!

Well god damm it. I'll only collect a pension for about 20 years instead of a millennium. Life sucks.

OTH I won't have to listen to some idiot playing a harp for ever.

You're going to be really surprised when you die, herald, and you find out nothing else happens to you after that, but unfortunately you won't be conscious to be aware of it. You'll just be gone.

The usual response I've had to that question is that if you live a good and blameless life and have never heard this message of salvation, you'll go to heaven, but if you live the same good and blameless life, DO hear the message of salvation and don't buy it, it's the lake of fire for you. Which of course means that those who try to peddle this stuff are in effect condemning to hellfire all those that they fail to convince. It also means you can spend your life as a drunken, child-abusing, pimping pervert, but if you accept this message on your death bed, you're in. This is really why such simplistic and dogmatic views of religion as herald's deserve to be rejected: they make no sense in terms of anything any normal person would understand as fairness or justice.
