yeah, straight copy and paste.


dawg, must suck thinking so many people around you are evil. I would certainly hate to live that way too.

I dont walk around thinking people are evil. I generally dont think about people I dont know at all. I have enough worrys in my own life with out worrying about others.

I would never ever say my God is little. He is bigger than any one could imagine. He controls it all.

As usual, you missed the point. No surprise there!

So then why did he create Satan / Lucifer or atleast allow him?

I wonder how long I will have to wait for your proof Dawg? Do you plan on showing how you can prove that elephants can climb trees? You said you can. So I eagerly await.

Carl Sagan was a very bright person. I'm not surprised by this quote. And he raises a valid question. Makes one wonder.

Lucifer was created by God as an angel. He chose his own path in history. Just as you all have.

Right Dawg. Just pull it out of your ass. Like all your other drive by posts.

Your contempt for science is astounding. (n)

You didn't answer the questions. Why if God is all powerful would he allow Lucifer to turn into Satan? Perhaps that a whole thread in itself.

I did answer you, God is a free choice God you make your choices and he gives you the consequences or rewards.

Excellent example of tautological reasoning.

Ok Dawg. I've said it before. And I'm going to try it again. I'm going to ignore your posts to this thread from now on. Unless you post something meaningful.

Hilarious!
