.... there was the bright flash, then darkness.
god himself greeted me at the pearly gates and has returned me to this world with a message:

he says he's had a good long think and he's changed his point of view on a lot of things. basically, being gay is ok, gambling is fun and beer is clever. he'll be sending J to the C (he's been modernised too) down in a couple of weeks to fill us all in.

Bummer eh Forest Fan? looks like you've been spouting out-of-date "wisdom".. DOH!

he also said that the bible was written during one of those "write 1 line and pass the paper to the next person" games, that's why it tails off towards the end, everyone wanted to play twister instead.


oh, and incase you were wondering, the bright light and then darkness was completely true.
turns out the bulb went.

My relationship with God is one of fear, respect, serving and thanksgiving, for sending His Son Jesus to die on the cross.

I'm talking about the mindset, not the actual beating. I am saying that you have the mindset of the battered wife I've described above. Would you agree?

Erm...and you've just gone on to prove it. What you have said follows exactly the pattern I described in the mind of an abused spouse. You're proving my point for me.

And well done for proving me correct in my assertion that your relationship with God is the same as the relationship between an abusive husband and a battered spouse. Really, you've made my day.

Persuming the wife is innocent and the husband a bully, the wife deserves not to be beaten and the husband should not be beating the wife.

God should beat us all in Hell, we are NOT innocent and should be punished. He is even gracious and chooses to give us all the opportunity to be saved from this punishment, even though we completely deserve it.

Well done Light, for referring to me as Forest Fan.

So then Forest Fan; how is what you've just said any different to my description of the mindset of a battered spouse, which went like this;

God like a wifebeater?

Well, unlike a husband who unrightfully punishes his wife by beating her, God SHOULD rightfully punish EVERYONE. By His grace some avoid the punishment, the beating, this is the grace of God.

And how exactly does that address the comparison of your God to a wifebeater, and you to a battered spouse? It doesn't, does it? It simply reaffims what I've said.

Thanks Forest; always nice to hear I was right about your faith.

I'd like you to address what I've said here Forest. I'd like you to give me an explanation about why I'm wrong in what I say here. And I'd like a proper explaination, rather than a biblical quote and you just mindlessly repeating "God is love", okay Forest Let's hear you rebutt my point that the love you describe is not love at all, just fearful abuse.
