Not bad. The logic is a bit too rigorous (fewer than 3 non-sequiturs per sentence); adherence to topic is also too tight, with the argument concisely and lucidly framed, for this to be a genuine specimen, but you're pitch perfect on the whine! :lol:

Stev0, Tony, airportkid ... It's obvious you see good as evil and evil as good. Why do you hate America?

 

Proco, your use of "..." reveals your bias. 'nuff said. WHY DO YOU HATE ENGLSH?

 

If you don't like it here, why don't you move to China and tell us how you like it there

 

If you can't turn it into money, what good is it?

 

The Bible is 100% accurate and should be followed at all costs. Thus, per Timothy...
1 Timothy 2:9 (New International Version):
I also want women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes.

This quote is obviously addressing the liberal tendency of wearing gold and braiding hair. And braiding hair also is a lesbian tendency. This is apparently who Timothy was referring to--liberal women and lesbians must dress modestly. Conservatives, this quote doesn't apply to you. But the Bible is 100% accurate.

And here's another quote that is applicable:
God blesses those whose hearts are pure, for they will see God.
Matthew 5:8

Of course, only those hearts who I say are pure are, indeed, pure. This does not mean that a Hindu will ever get into heaven unless he accepts Jesus as the savior, which he will do upon his deathbed because God talks to me. And you liberals can't take that away from me.

How'd I do? I think I threw up in my mouth a little.

Damn straight. It's the liberal media that's pushing this agenda down our throats. Al Gore smokes in bed, but you'd never know it from the "news" outlets.

 

You all thought John Kerry was SO smart. He was SO stupid. He had a 76 cumulative average. President Bush had a 77. It's very apparent who is the smartest. That's a full grade point higher!

And I love America! But don't ever trust the government...the Constitution is just a GD piece of paper. Much more applicable to America are the Federalist Papers.

The liberals hate America but trust our governmental system, which is just indicative of the liberal mindset. Shocking display of trust!

 

Gore and Obama used to share some "smokes" and they both inhaled!!!

 

<cough>burn heaps of fossil fuels<cough cough>

 

Isn't it about time we nuked France? If you don't think so, you must not support the troops.

Why express any doubt. Make up your mind! We are at war!

Consider that:

(1 Cor 2:7 NKJV) But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory,
(1 Cor 2:8 NKJV) which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
(1 Cor 2:9 NKJV) But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him."
(1 Cor 2:10 NKJV) But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
(1 Cor 2:11 NKJV) For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

This scripture is saying that the mysteries and plans of God are hidden to those who do not have the Spirit of God to reveal them.
If God would have made it apparent what was the plan of the Father... to totally render Satan powerless by the wrongful crucifixion of Jesus, Satan wouldn't have been so stupid.
Once again, the wisdom of God took the wise "satan" in his own craftiness.
(Job 5:12 NKJV) He frustrates the devices of the crafty, So that their hands cannot carry out their plans.
(Job 5:13 NKJV) He catches the wise in their own craftiness, And the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them.


Another example:

(Mat 16:19 NKJV) "And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven."
(Mat 16:20 NKJV) Then He commanded His disciples that they should tell no one that He was Jesus the Christ.
(Mat 16:21 NKJV) From that time Jesus began to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day.

(Mark 7:35 NKJV) Immediately his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly.
(Mark 7:36 NKJV) Then He commanded them that they should tell no one; but the more He commanded them, the more widely they proclaimed it.
(Mark 7:37 NKJV) And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, "He has done all things well. He makes both the deaf to hear and the mute to speak."

Another example:
(Mark 9:9 NKJV) Now as they came down from the mountain, He commanded them that they should tell no one the things they had seen, till the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
(Mark 9:10 NKJV) So they kept this word to themselves, questioning what the rising from the dead meant.

Yes..God has secrets........

Another example:

(Luke 8:54 NKJV) But He put them all outside, took her by the hand and called, saying, "Little girl, arise."
(Luke 8:55 NKJV) Then her spirit returned, and she arose immediately. And He commanded that she be given something to eat.
(Luke 8:56 NKJV) And her parents were astonished, but He charged them to tell no one what had happened.

(Mark 4:11 NKJV) And He said to them, "To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables,
(Mark 4:12 NKJV) "so that 'Seeing they may see and not perceive, And hearing they may hear and not understand; Lest they should turn, And their sins be forgiven them.'"
(Mark 4:13 NKJV) And He said to them, "Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables?

The Lord is a man of war and a general that hides his plans from those that would trample or cause harm.

(2 Sam 5:23 NKJV) Therefore David inquired of the LORD, and He said, "You shall not go up; circle around behind them, and come upon them in front of the mulberry trees.
(2 Sam 5:24 NKJV) "And it shall be, when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, then you shall advance quickly. For then the LORD will go out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines."

This is only a sample of "secrets" the Lord has held against the enemy..... even today.. there are many things left unrevealed and won't be revealed until its too late for Satan as he will have already fallen into his own trap.

(Rev 2:17 NKJV) "He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows except him who receives it."'

(Col 1:26 NKJV) the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints.
(Col 1:27 NKJV) To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

Have you considered how baby Jesus was also hidden from Herod?
What about Moses as a baby?

(Luke 12:40 NKJV) "Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect."

And lastly to get back on topic....

Even the time of his coming is held as secret.

(Mat 24:35 NKJV) "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.
(Mat 24:36 NKJV) "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.
(Mat 24:37 NKJV) "But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
(Mat 24:38 NKJV) "For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,
(Mat 24:39 NKJV) "and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

If God revealed all of his plans and showed all of his glory right now today.. people would serve him out of logic and intelligence rather than love, faith and trust.

Lastly... one more example of God demonstrating his silence and not revealing his plans until the timing was right...... this is only the start of the secrets of God.. how could you have missed so many scriptures TJ?
And why are you angry at me?

(John 7:3 NKJV) His brothers therefore said to Him, "Depart from here and go into Judea, that Your disciples also may see the works that You are doing.
(John 7:4 NKJV) "For no one does anything in secret while he himself seeks to be known openly. If You do these things, show Yourself to the world."
(John 7:5 NKJV) For even His brothers did not believe in Him.
(John 7:6 NKJV) Then Jesus said to them, "My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.

The spellings too good, also. To be really convincing there must be several misspellings or typos, at least one obviously erroneous use of punctuation and one incident of questionable grammar.

 

Quit obfuscating.

 

Speak English or DIEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is so typical of you liberals. Don't stick to the issue, just make fun of spelling and grammar. Typical liberal elitism.
