| Exd 20:4 | Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth: |
| Exd 20:5 | Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: |
I didn't attack anyone's belief; I am just using scripture.
and it is YHVH who commands:
| Exd 20:3 | Thou shalt have no other gods before me |

Just curious? Does it ever drive you nuts figuring out and or arguing with others if there is a God or not?

People like you are described in the bible
Romans 1:25
They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised.

I wouldn't call you an atheist when you can write like this - it's great and I love it. I'm very much in tune with your thoughts - thank you. Profound and meaningful and well worth reading - IMHO!

Re: Okay! Posted by RedStatesMan
I don;t think it's an attack.
It's a statement.
I believe the god that is prevalent in Christian perception is an idol.

Okay!
That is your belief! Just as I believe in God. However, I could not help but notice your attack:
"This is God, not some manufactured male anthropomorphic image."
Why the attack on my belief when I have said nothing about yours but that it is a belief just like mine? There you go again, just like kooka and gomedome, attacking constantly. If, in your eyes, something does not exist then why do you attack it so fervently? You do not see me on here creating an entire website to bash YHVH or any other belief. I may disagree with those beliefs but I am not obsessed with the need to bash it daily. Wonder what is behind all of that outrage?

This is very interesting. I like the description of God as you know it to be. I had never thought of the four letter thing.. very cool. I wonder though.. how does this make you an atheist?
