RSM there was no generalization at all in this post

Seriously, are you on crack?

Do you have some mental imbalance we should know about?

I did real well dealing with my grandfather yesterday who was as far removed from reality as you seem to be today, maybe I can help. Maybe you need to get yourself to a hospital and get the help you so obviously need.

I know you get confused with the English language, since you still have no idea at all as to what 'contradiction' means. Now you need to go and look up the word 'generalization' so you might be able to use it correctly in the future.

This was a post about a group of people, who may not even be Christians, but are scamming people out of their money by playing on Christian's religious beliefs.

I have no clue how anyone in their right mind would go and take this post as being against Christians. I was putting down the people that are running the site, which I see as a scam to screw over the more gullible Christians. It was a religious post just because it was a religious based scam. I never once made any generalized statements anywhere in this post. Really read it and see what is actually being said instead of deciding that it must be an attack against all Christians just because I am writing it and in your fantasy world all my posts are attacks against Christians.

You obviously need some serious help. There is some imbalance in you that makes it so you snap at the strangers of things, seeing an attack hat is not there. Now that is an unhealthy paranoia. And it is really obvious that my mind is far more developed than yours at this point. I am actually somewhat surprised you are allowed out in public with the obvious mental issues you have.

Re: ENOUGH! - by RedStatesMan

I didn't see a generalization here, RSM, just pointing out a certain web site. But we all know that this idea of a "secret rapture" has taken root in a large number of Christians, as evidenced by the video series this was taken from, basically a theory espoused by some Baptist or other preacher in the mid-19th Century that most mainstream Christians don't espouse -- so there is an agreement. But still, this is by no means an isolated incident.

He doesn't make claims about star stuff -- he is just citing experts who have studied such matters.

And let's agree that not all Christians believe this way; but neither do all Christians believe as you do, and would you have us all believe that this is so?

Even Southern Christians have eschewed much of what you yourself believe, at least, gleaning from some of your comments and posts that I have responded to.

Knowing my son, I can say that he is very mature for his age in his thinking, and has rejected what is believed and taught as fact simply because it is believed to be true, coming to conclusions through his own reasoning, not by accepting what others purport to be "Truth". That is a very mature mind to my way of thinking.

Tradition does not make belief true.

Having experienced many Christians myself, and in particular the evangelical kind, I can conclude that they can be closed minded and oblivious to the concerns of others in their fervor to advance their cause.

ENOUGH!

I am so very tired of your constant generalizations of Christians. Your generalization knows no end. You pick out some obscure crackpot criminal scheme then try to turn it on Christians! OF COURSE, WHAT IDIOT WOULD DO THIS? There are scams pulled on the poor people everyday that has absolutely nothing to do with Christianity; this is just one of millions. Just like I bet I could cook up some illegal scam to sell people "star stuff' and you would buy it in a minute since you claim we are derived from it! GET IT!

I will give you another one about some twisted Kansas Baptist Church that has some stupid practices but that does not equate anything against my own faith. Look for this in a future post of mine, ok? Do you understand anything? In case your daddy Xeno did not mention this over the years then listen up, THERE ARE NUTS AND IDIOTS IN EVERY BELIEF, RACE AND FACET OF LIFE! That's right Kooka. Learn this and teach this to your boys, ok? Trust me it will help them! Your thoughts tell me that you are still so young and your mind is still developing. However, it should already be developed at your age.

kooka_lives - they are my heroes, if in fact they are making money at it

Things such as this are the byproduct of massive segments of society being dumbed down by the collective desire to reconcile an ancient document with the real world. Who could possibly believe something so ridiculous as the rapture fairy tales without the mind numbing effects of social conditioning and religious indoctrination setting them up to accept it?

Scamming the insecure is an age-old endeavor. So is expecting to buy your way into heaven as a shortcut for doing the right thing. These Rapture-Vultures have found a way to combine the two, it seems, and though I feel sick to my stomach that there are those who take advantage, I also feel that those who sign up get what they deserve!

mysteria

Reasoning and logic are never going to get the strong 'foothold' they need as long as we have the die hard conservtive fundamentalists around who live in great fear of those things, having the influence on our society they have.

Feenix, that was about as sad as I have seen you get

Have you ever actually worked with mentally challenged five year olds? I have. When they are presented with ideas that they dislike and are unable to deal with, they go and act 100% like you do with your replies to my comments. They ignore what is being said and spit out something foolish and childish and often off subject to move away from the issue because they are unable to deal with it all. Just like 'accidentally' deleting a comment they didn't like. But don't worry I'll repost it for you.

I would love to just for once see a conservative here on Blogit try to prove me wrong. Just like you, they shy away from a real fight and resort to childish actions such as you have done here. When you present facts and logic and reasoning that go against their ideas, they somehow are unable to deal wit that. My guess is because they have no evidence that defends their idea, because otherwise why would they need to act as sad and pathetic as they do? You comment right here only helps to highlight this point.

Jeeeez....This world is just pack full o loons isn't it?

The more I learn of the exploits of man(un)kind, the more I am convinced that idiocracy is tenaciously rampant and the hopes of reason gaining a foothold retreats into the abyss...
