@TheMorningsStar
Could you also expand on what, precisely, you mean when you say "Theologically speaking, there is no excluded middle"?
There cannot be a theological exclusion of the middle. The Trinity is God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit.
To exclude the middle would mean excluding Jesus from the Trinity. Where would Christianity be without Jesus?

@Sidewalker
--> @TheMorningsStarThe "seem" gets dropped once you establish Polycentric Manifolds exist in reality. What is ontologically prior/fundamental must be something that exists, and so if something (Y) seems like it can be derived from X but X does not exist, then it does nothing to indicate how fundamental said thing (Y) is.Polycentric Manifolds exist as mathematical objects, your analysis is really about the definition of mathematical terms. Athias is right, you are trying to make geometry an analog for Theism, which of course transcends the spatial and temporal.Furthermore, Monocentric Manifolds and Polycentric Manifolds do not exist purely as spatial things, they can exist within organization structures (as an example).No they can't, organizational structures can be Monocentric or Polycentric, but they aren't manifolds, and furthermore, your argument is not valid when applied to organizational structure.It is just easier for people to understand concepts when it is related to them in a more common manner, which tends to be spatial or temporal. That does not mean said concepts are limited to the spatial or temporal, just that it is easier to understand them in said terms.It's is certainly easier to understand concepts spatially or temporally, but spatial and temporal concepts cannot be understood to apply to Theology.For one thing, your argument presupposes an excluded middle, and Theologically speaking, there is no excluded middle. I believe this applies to most faiths, a common example is Christianity of course, the concept of the Trinity manifests as both Monotheistic and Polytheistic, Hinduism's thousand Gods are all manifestations of the singular transcendent reality of Brahman.
Humans can do with all the help they can get.

Why does your post on white and black family values exclude Asians. Is it because whites don’t compare well against Asians?

America went through a civil war to avoid such a situation where black children would benefit more than white kids.
-->@ShilaAre you suggesting it will take another civil war to help disadvantaged black kids? I sure hope not.
After reparation is paid to the blacks for slavery. Whites will experience the social and economic advantage blacks now have and resort to old solutions like a civil war.

-> @Shila.Shila, the soon to be the #1 Bible stupid and ignorant fool on DEBATEART and the runaway from questions posed to them,YOUR ONCE AGAIN VERY BIBLE IGNORANT QUOTE: ".... where as Jesus was sacrificed, mocked, ridiculed and crucified. Jesus even lamented on the cross. Matthew 27:46 About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”).HELLO? Jesus is God, therefore He was talking to Himself when He stated; “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Get it boneheaded pseudo-christian Shila? Huh? Maybe?
No where in the Bible did Jesus claim he was God.
Jesus in the gospels use the term son of man 102 times. He call himself son of God 65 times. Jesus claimed God was his father 54 times. There are 17 instance in the Bible where Jesus is praying to God.
What part of this Jesus image don't you understand?: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/bc/08/e3/bc08e36683e93c462b77945d4582fbb3.jpgJesus H. Christ, you have absolutely no sense in how Bible dumbfounded you truly are at your continued expense! :(
John 20:17 Jesus said, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”
Why are you mocking Jesus?

--> @Shila.Shila, the soon to be the #1 Bible stupid and ignorant fool on DEBATEART and the runaway from questions posed to them,YOUR QUOTE IN TRYING TO ADDRESS OF OUR JESUS, AS YAHWEH GOD INCARNATE, MURDERING INNOCENT ZYGOTES, FETUS’ AND BABIES: “God saw the wickedness of the human race.”Yes, Jesus did see this evil, but why did He have to murder innocent human life forms as described above? Can we still call Jesus ever loving and forgiving, I say we have to accept reality and say NO! What is your position on this topic, or are you once again too SCARED to give one where you will go into hiding again?
That was God the Father who sent the flood to end the wickedness of the human race. Genesis 6. Old Testament .
Jesus was sent to save the world in the New Testament. Two different events.
YOUR RUNNING AWAY AGAIN FROM TELLING US YOUR GODLY GENDER: “How can I be scared or a second class woman when no one dominates or controls Shila?AGAIN, you are just too SCARED to tell us your gender that Jesus has given you, why? Are you a hermaphrodite and to embarrassed to tell us?Listen up, wash your hands, and then reach down into your neither regions and feel around for either a male or female anatomy, okay? Then tell us what you felt, then you can tell us if you are male of female, simple enough? Have your mommy tell you if need be, okay?
From the name Shila you should have guessed it’s a female’s name. I guess you only know a few female names you found in the Bible.
YOUR TRULY BIBLE IGNORANT QUOTE ONCE AGAIN: “I said Jesus’s status changed after his resurrection.”JESUS AS GOD CANNOT CHANGE AS HIS INSPIRED WORDS SO STATE FORTHWITH, YOU BIBLE STUPID FOOL, ENOUGH!!!!God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?” (Numbers 23:19)"God does not change" (Malachi 3:6; James 1:17)Therefore, once again you call Jesus a LIAR to his face with His inspired words, BLASPHEME!!!
When Jesus’s status changed so did his responsibility.
His original mission was to save the Jews.
But after his resurrection he was given full authority over heaven and earth. Therefore his responsibility was to save both Jews and gentiles.
Remember Jesus only did what his Father commanded him to do. Try reading your Bible.
John 14:31 but he comes so that the world may learn that I love the Father and do exactly what my Father has commanded me. “Come now; let us leave.
YOUR BIBLE BIRDBRAINED MODUS OPERANDI QUOTE IS WITHOUT BOUNDS!: “Bearing fruit does not refer to children.”HELLO?! Read the godly passages AGAIN shown below where in fact being fruitful is regarding having many children to be Christian soldiers for the cause!"You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you." (John 15:16)"Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table." (Psalm 128:3)"By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples." (John 15:8)"Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep. Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate." (Psalm 127:1-5)
Bearing fruit does not refer to children. We have to be productive as believers and united with Jesus to bring about change. The Gospels means good news. We are to spread the good news of Jesus and salvation.

Personally I like dramas to be historically correct, even those with an element of fantasy and that includes casting.I don’t have a problem with the casting of fantasy characters though, like mermaids or Spiderman … although Thor being a Norse god should probably look suitably Nordic.

-> @ShilaSo why are Neo-Nazi groups supporting Trump knowing Trump is a advised by two Jews.I’m sure you’re aware of the idea of “lesser of two evils”? That’s how most people vote. Many people don’t like a candidate, they just hate one less. So because of Democrats spending most of their time vilifying White people and trying to justify discrimination against them, the obvious choice is the only other party that has any chance of being elected.I could ask you the same question: why did black supremacists vote for Biden?
Blacks like Biden’s programs which helps struggling black families.
But Neo Nazi supporters backing Trump who allowed a Jew into his family is heresy.

@Lunar108
It must be so shocking and unfair to Christians that the Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) lived to meet his maker where as Jesus was sacrificed, mocked, ridiculed and crucified. Jesus even lamented on the cross.
Matthew 27:46 About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”).

-> @Yassinelet me guess , Islam is a faction of Catholics that was created by the catholic church to destroy Judaism ? right Yassine ?since we're mentioning conspiracy theories I thought I should mention this one since I kept hearing it a lotnearly from every non catholic Christian I ever argued with , they usually think I'm a muslim because of my name
Judaism was destroyed by the Romans in 70AD when the Roman’s after crucifying Jesus went on to destroy the holy temple, destroyed Jerusalem and slaughtered the Jews people.
The Romans replaced Judaism with the Roman Catholic Church. By 325 CE Christianity was adopted by armament as the state religion.
Islam was created in the 7th century. Long after Judaism was reduced to a relic of the past.

This is one of the most ridiculous stories that can come out of Islam. There is an agreement among Islamic sources that the origin of stoning the devil comes from this story.Going back to this "test", where Allah pushes a parent to kill their child only to have the Shaytan-satan- try to stop him. When taken in the context that Allah knows the future, know what will happen, and knows everything... sounds like one sick joke, doesn't it. Now, Google how many parents killed their children insisting they heard a voice claiming to be god asking them to follow His command. Only this time, no lamp shows up!!I just googled this term "hears voices kills their child" and hit hundred of thousands of stories. If you find it sick, wonder how this story sound any different?If I ever visit Mecca again, I think I will throw stones on the Kaaba instead!! But then Allah is not real, none of these stories are real. Now you know.@arabic_translatedmemesdid you know where the hajj -islamic pilgrimage- stoning the devil come from ?the devil was trying to stop ibraham from stoning his very own son and Ibraham throw stones at himNow let me ask you a question ? who comes more as a devil ?the person who ask a father to kill his own son , or the one telling him not to kill his own son ?===========================Just using one's brain when one is ordered to kill his own son one should begin to question themselves and whither they are following a cult/evil god rather than following a righteous god / religion
The Bible tells us God did test Abraham.
Abraham Tested
Genesis 22:1 Some time later God tested Abraham. He said to him, “Abraham!”
“Here I am,” he replied.
2 Then God said, “Take your son, your only son, whom you love—Isaac—and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on a mountain I will show you.”
3 Early the next morning Abraham got up and loaded his donkey. He took with him two of his servants and his son Isaac. When he had cut enough wood for the burnt offering, he set out for the place God had told him about. 4 On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance. 5 He said to his servants, “Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there. We will worship and then we will come back to you.”
6 Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac, and he himself carried the fire and the knife. As the two of them went on together, 7 Isaac spoke up and said to his father Abraham, “Father?”
“Yes, my son?” Abraham replied.
“The fire and wood are here,” Isaac said, “but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”
8 Abraham answered, “God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two of them went on together.
9 When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood.10 Then he reached out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. 11 But the angel of the Lordcalled out to him from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham!”
“Here I am,” he replied.
12 “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.”
13 Abraham looked up and there in a thicket he saw a ram[a] caught by its horns. He went over and took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son. 14 So Abraham calledthat place The Lord Will Provide. And to this day it is said, “On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.”
15 The angel of the Lord called to Abraham from heaven a second time 16 and said, “I swear by myself, declares the Lord, that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, 17 I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, 18 and through your offspring[b] all nations on earth will be blessed,[c] because you have obeyed me.”
19 Then Abraham returned to his servants, and they set off together for Beersheba. And Abraham stayed in Beersheba.

The Beatles – The Best Band in History
Beatles are simply the greatest band ever.
- During the week of April 4, 1964, The Beatles occupied the top five positions on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart (12 in the Hot 100), the top 2 positions on the albums chart, the no. 1 position in the British singles chart, the first two positions in the British albums chart and the no. 1 position in the British EP chart, – the most complete domination of the British and American charts in history. Today, you’re lucky to have one top 10 album and single at the same time.
- To date, the Beatles have sold over 1 billion records. That’s billion, with a B.
- They have the most no. 1 albums in the British album charts (15), and 17 No. 1 hits.
- They hold the record for the group with the longest span between no. 1 albums in the Billboard albums chart (36 years and 51 weeks, 1964 to 2001). In 2000 – 20 years after John Lennon was killed and 30 years after they broke up, their second major greatest hits compilation, 1, spent eight weeks at no. 1 and sold 13 million copies in its first month of release.
- They boast 20 No. 1 hits in the United States, (19 No. 1 albums), with 24 consecutive Top 10 hits from 1964 to 1976 (six years after they broke up), a record for a group. They also have 12 no. 1 hits in Germany, 23 in Australia, 21 in the Netherlands, 22 in Canada, and 13 in Malaysia.
- According to the United World Chart, the Beatles have 16 of the 100 most successful tracks of all time, and also seven of the 100 most successful albums in history.
- The Beatles recorded four of the Top 10 Greatest Albums of All Time, according to Rolling Stonemagazine, and three of the Top Five. (I’ll ignore the fact that Abbey Road was only No. 14. Blasphemy.)
- They were ground-breaking pioneers almost from the beginning, being the first group ever to employ feedback in 1964’s “I Feel Fine.” One of their first hits, “A Hard Day’s Night,” features an opening chord so revolutionary that it took almost 45 years for someone to figure out how they played it. 1964’s “I Feel Fine” featured the first use of guitar feedback in a song.
- 1965’s Rubber Soul and the follow-up, Revolver, saw more innovation, from the use of a sitar in “Norwegian Wood” to tape loops in “Tomorrow Never Knows.” Then there are the backward vocals in “Rain” (a first) and a Moog synthesizer on several songs on 1969’s Abbey Road.
- Sgt&tag=hooksandhar07-20″>Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Heart’s Club Band is arguably the greatest album ever made (indeed, it topped Rolling Stone‘s list). While it doesn’t have the strongest material, the album was a landmark in recording. It popularized the concept album — something that would serve as an inspiration to The Who and Pink Floyd.
- “A Day in the Life” from Sgt. Pepper may have been the crowning achievement of the group – a five-and-a half-minute song composed of two suites – one by Lennon, one by Paul McCartney – that are totally different in sound and texture, yet complement each other perfectly. The song features two cacophonous crescendos from an orchestra, the final one climaxing in a single E major piano chord that lasts 42 seconds.
- One may not like songs such as “Yesterday” and “Hey Jude,” but they are unrivaled in their popularity, and the melodies are unforgettable.
- McCartney actually dreamed the tune to “Yesterday.”
- “Helter Skelter” and “I Want You (She’s So Heavy)” are considered two of the first heavy metal songs.
- They have 23 of the Top 500 songs of all time, again according to Rolling Stone – the most of any artist.
- Their third-best songwriter – George Harrison – wrote a song, “Something,” that Frank Sinatra called his favorite Lennon & McCarney song. After recording that gem, he then went on to create a memorable triple album as his first solo release.
- According to stacker.com, 21 of the top 50 most covered songs of all time are Beatles songs.
- Their iconic No. 1 singles notwithstanding (“Love Me Do”, “From Me to You”, “She Loves You”, “I Want to Hold Your Hand”, “Can’t Buy Me Love”, “A Hard Day’s Night”, “I Feel Fine”, “Eight Days a Week”, “Ticket to Ride”, “Help!”, “Yesterday”, “Day Tripper”, “We Can Work It Out”, “Paperback Writer”, “Yellow Submarine”, “Eleanor Rigby”, “Penny Lane”, “All You Need Is Love”, “Hello, Goodbye”, “Lady Madonna”, “Hey Jude”, “Get Back”, “The Ballad of John and Yoko”, “Something”, “Come Together”, “Let It Be” and “The Long and Winding Road”), some of their best songs weren’t even on any singles or B-sides: “I Should Have Known Better,” “You Won’t See Me,” “For No One,” “Across the Universe,” “Two of Us,” “Dear Prudence,” and “Because” are all just album filler.
- They revolutionized the science of recording, using multiple tracks instead of playing live. Producer George Martin used varying tape speeds to make Lennon’s voice sound high (“Tomorrow Never Knows”) and slow (“Strawberry Fields Forever”); he also brought in string musicians to accompany certain songs (“Yesterday”). In another session, McCartney utilized bass drums halfway down a corridor to achieve a staccato sound in “Mother Nature’s Son.”
- In an age where other people wrote songs for the flavor of the day – think the Brill Building songwriters doing all the work for the Shangri-Las and the Dixie Cups – The Beatles surprised everyone by penning their own hits from the beginning. As a result, they helped usher the singer-songwriter movement that popularized the late 1960s.
- The medley on Side B of Abbey Road.
- Their ability to cross over from media and teen idols to musical innovators is one-of-a-kind. Their chart success and initial popularity are unparalleled; but despite their initial fame, they managed to continue to improve throughout their career.
- The group’s song “Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da” has been christened the “perfect pop song,” according to scientists at the Max Planck Institute in Germany.
- Their place in popular culture is unrivaled – Their movies, their appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show (in which they played to 74 million people), the “bigger than Jesus” comment, the refusal to play in concert after 1966, the Maharishi, the painstaking production work, the beginnings of the drug culture and LSD fad, “Helter Skelter” and Charles Manson, the “Paul is Dead” phenomenon, Yoko Ono, the rooftop concert, the cover of Abbey Road, the subsequent solo years, and the hit singles created from rough demos of the late Lennon.
- They accomplished all this in just seven years.

DONALD TRUMP has sparked further controversy after reciting the controversial poem The Snake during a campaign rally.
On her way to work one morning
Down the path alongside the lake
A tender-hearted woman saw a poor half-frozen snake
His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew
“Oh well,” she cried, “I'll take you in and I'll take care of you”
“Take me in oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman,” sighed the snake
She wrapped him up all cozy in a curvature of silk
And then laid him by the fireside with some honey and some milk
Now she hurried home from work that night as soon as she arrived
She found that pretty snake she'd taken in had been revived
“Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman,” sighed the snake
Now she clutched him to her bosom, “You're so beautiful,” she cried
“But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died”
Now she stroked his pretty skin and then she kissed and held him tight
But instead of saying thanks, that snake gave her a vicious bite
“Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman,” sighed the snake
“I saved you,” cried that woman
“And you've bit me even, why?
You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die”
“Oh shut up, silly woman,” said the reptile with a grin
“You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in
”Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman,“ sighed the snake

--> @SkepticalOneJFC!! Are you being obtuse on purpose or are you really that dense?Disney interpreted “clear” as being near/close to “white,” for the simple fact that no black person is “clear” in skin tone and/or physical description.Everyone in the entire WORLD has come to know/accept Ariel as “white.” To change that fact, a fact established for quite some time, is “black washing” when you cast a black woman to play a white character.Create your own damn storyline. Create your own new narrative and cast a black woman to play the mermaid. You don’t need to rip off and piggyback a white character in a faux call for diversity. It’s PC BS.
There aren’t too many white heroes left except for fictional characters. Black-washing can only hurt white people.

When you buy a smartphone, you are buying Communism.Half of all smartphones are made by Communist China and Communist Vietnam.
That was the most unkindest cut of them all. To suggest we are all indirectly supporting communism.

@IwantRooseveltagain
--> @bmdrocks21Are you capable of defining that term?White supremacy policies? Yes, we used to call them Jim Crow laws. Laws that favor white people over black people, people of means over people with low income and assets, segregation, separate but equal court rulings, laws that disenfranchise blacks from voting and weaken their power in government such as racially inspired gerrymandering. Laws that end up underfunding drinking water in black neighborhoods and cities. There are even some Americans who think blacks are biologically inferior to whites.
Are you saying it is not just Republicans who see blacks are biologically inferior to whites? America is still 70% white. And Jim Crow started in the South which were democratic states also called the Bible Belt. So by definition white Christians are racists.

I think you'd have to be kind of naive or very easily influenced to get your mind changed in a debate on the internet. That's *if* you genuinely believe what you're arguing for, anyway.I used to think I was pro-abortion, but I didn't really understand the reasons why...it just seemed like the "right" and "logical" way to be. Then I became pregnant, and then pregnant again...and now I have two young children. I'm ardently anti-abortion now.I also used to support a certain country, whereas now I don't care as much.Although we can gain insight and new ideas from people we debate, change is always down to us. You have to be ready and you have to come to your own *personal* realizations, which are caused by experiences you go through and your own learning.
A convincing argument can make you think and reconsider your position.

@TWS1405
--> @Double_R>@TWS1405Political witch hunt. That is all this BS is.It is a waste of time, manpower and taxpayer money.The lawsuit goes into great detail to list Trump’s crimes, including the fact that he listed one of his penthouse apartment’s at 33,000 square feet to dramatically over inflate its value when it was closer to 11,000 square feet. His personal attorney for 10 years and man at the center of much of these crimes has gone on the record to explain in detail Trump’s involvement in them and how he runs his organizations generally.But as usual, with no thought whatsoever, Trump cultists just hand waive it all away by calling it a political witch-hunt. Why am I not surprised?Alleged. Until the trier of fact says guilty, he is innocent, and the allegations are just that, alleged.
Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg pleaded guilty to all 15 of the charges he faced in the case.

Those are not even black heroes.

@BrotherD.Thomas
--> @Shila.Shila,YOUR QUOTE OF OUTRIGHT BIBLICAL IGNORANCE CONTINUES: "This is why no one paid attention to other floods. They were all waiting to hear from Jesus."I am really tiring of your complete Bible stupidity and the history of DIFFERENT floods by other civilizations! Each and every other flood is completely different than Jesus' flood as Yahweh god incarnate as He murdered innocent zygotes, fetus' and babies that did not know their parents being evil, and as Jesus watched the drowning of these innocent lives (Hebrews 4:13), understand bible fool?
God saw the wickedness of the human race.
Genesis 6:5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. 6 The Lordregretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.” 8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.
Shila, NO FREE RIDES! You forgot to address my following question to you, ready, or are you to SCARED?1. Barring your ever so weak EXCUSES not to give any information about yourself in your biography, and implying that males are not qualified to address your bible stupidity, then we can only assume that you are a second class woman, is this correct? If you are to SCARED to answer this simple question in front of the membership, it will be duly noted!
How can I be scared or a second class woman when no one dominates or controls Shila?
YOUR ONCE AGAIN BIBLE STUPID QUOTE OF CALLING JESUS A LIAR!: "You forgot Jesus’s status changed after the resurrection."You forgot the following godly passage where Jesus stated: “God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?” (Numbers 23:19)"God does not change" (Malachi 3:6; James 1:17)Therefore, Jesus cannot change His mind when He stated that He ONLY came for the Jews and NOT for the Gentiles! PERIOD! Do you understand simple biblical logic 101 or do you want to call Jesus' words a LIAR again?
I said Jesus’s status changed after his resurrection.
Matthew 28:18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
That made Jesus responsible for not only the Jews but Gentiles too.
YOUR BIBLE STUPID QUOTE AGAIN IN FRONT OF THE MEMBERSHIP: "That was in Genesis where God instructed Adam and Eve to be fruitful and multiply. But the mission is different today. We are instructed to share the Gospels about Jesus and salvation."WRONG! It amazes me in how utterly Bible stupid you truly are! How can you remain upon this forum?Within the New Testament is as follows that make you the Bible fool AGAIN in not being fruitful for Jesus, to wit:"You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you." (John 15:16)"Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table." (Psalm 128:3)"By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples." (John 15:8)"Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep. Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate." (Psalm 127:1-5)
Bearing fruit does not refer to children. We have to be productive as believers and united with Jesus to bring about change. The Gospels means good news. We are to spread the good news of Jesus and salvation.
YOUR RUNAWAY QUOTE OF DISPAIR: "Why are you so insecure? Would it comfort you to hear I will accept you for what you are?"Fine, I accept the fact that you accept the fact that Jesus' true words and I OWN YOU BIBLE STUPIDITY! Thank you!
You appear obsessed with your own stupidity. Why do you believe the Bible caused your stupidity?
YOUR QUOTE OF GRASPING FOR STRAWS THAT YOU CAN'T ADMIT THAT IT IS YOUR FAITH THAT GOES SEVERELY WANTING BECAUSE OF MY BIBLE KNOWLEDGE IS SUPERIOR OVER YOUR GRADE-SCHOOL KNOWLEDGE OF SAME!: "Jesus uses people in strange ways. Your strong reaction to members who speak the WORD shows you need help in your faith.Shila, you have so much to learn biblically to prevent further embarrassment, that it is going to be a long road for you if you remain upon this form, understood? Let us know when you need a break from actual BIBLICAL AXIOMS that seemingly you've never read before, and that make you the continued Bible fool within this forum as I have shown in this thread alone!Let us know when you want to take a break from over dosing on your Bible Stupid Pills®️ in front of the membership, okay?
You treat the Bible like some therapy pill. What BIBLICAL AXIOMS have you read that made you what you are today?

India is in Asia, yet they have the second highest infection and mortality rates (after the U.S).South Korea is ranked at #6. Even the U.K has less deaths from covid. Vietnam is #13, Taiwan is #22, North Korea is #28, and Hong Kong is #51.
South Korea deaths = 28,000 , UK deaths = 190,000.
Vietnam deaths = 43,000
Taiwan deaths = 10,000
NKorea deaths
Hong Kong deaths = 9,900

Charged. Sued. Civil case filed. Allegations. NOTHING has EVER panned out.And just because people who worked for Trump, know Trump, or have been photographed with Trump =/= guilt by any measurable mean on the part of Trump in the activities those charged, tried and convicted have done.
The New York’s fraud case against Trump to the tune of 250 million will drive Trump bankrupt.
