How special.

Title edited. -Z-man.

Red,

Thankxs for the info but I gotta put you straight on the incorrect and extremly bad taste title you used to title this thread.

Firstly, it's a misnomer, Jesus Christ was not born on Christmas Day or in December. 25th/12 is a pagan feast taken over by Christianity to celebrate Jesus's birth which in all probability was in April, it was also more than likly to have been around 4-6BC.

Secondly Jesus Christ did not "bring" down anything.

You need to either read your bible or attend church and learn somethings.

God does not like or "visit" these things on his children. I.E US
What you have to realise is a few things.

Is that whilst God loves us and wants us to draw near to him, he also abhors the evil that men do and try to justify in his name.

Look around you at life, images, news theres a whole lot of evil around.

The bible also talks about that to wards the end of days there will be all manner of catastrophes. So that man may be tested. I'm not saying this is what we are looking at but you dont need to look far to see we are going to hell in a handbasket rather quickly.

Evil has a way of making things appear, that there is no God. Don't even try to think thats correct.

Recently in Sri Lanka God/Christianity is being pushed and subjugated both by Buddists and now also be ammendments to the constitution and law, prohibiting Christianity from being practiced and followed according to scripture.

Pastors and Christians are being killed, tortured and raped. A Roman Catholic Church was fire bombed a few days ago by... thoes peace loving buddists.

Certain powers and people in high places are pushing God away purpously in this country. Or at least trying to.

Even look at how diasters strike, all over the developing countries are ALWAYS hit.

this event makes 9-11 look like a teaparty !

If 20,000+ people had been killed stateside or in the uk or europe, EVERY bloody TV channel would be chocked. Yet on TV today in the UK VERY little has been shown, I only get anythnig of relevance on Cable.

BBC/ITV/Channel4/and fve have been pretty crap.

Today I awaok to the figuers of 15,000 in Sri Lanka dead. Up untill last night I did not know if my own relatives and friends were alive. luvckily some SMS's upcountry regions kept me in touch.

One think that is also relevant and to the point, that to a Christian death is not the end. To a Christian Hell is not being or knowing God's presence or love. If you Die you are with God.

God's knows this and Christians know this. The Devil also knows this and tries to use this little known fact to his advantage. If a Christian is not afraid to die OR to suffer then the old adage "why does God allow this to happen, there can't be a God after all" does make sense. But It DOESNT cos when you are dead that is not the endgame it is the beginning.

Evil does not come at you with 2 horns and a forked tail. It comes with a smile. It usues everything it can media, famous people, friends events.

God does not need any trickery. God is all around for thoes that have eyes to see. When your baby is born, when your plants grow, when your kids get home safe after school. When you could have been shot in a burglary (as nearly happened to me) or could have dies in the major car wreck. Yep God is there and I'm pleased to say he's got my back.

And God was defintly there for me and kept my familly and freidns safe by his grace.

Some members of the Sri Lankan Church I attend here in the UK have had members of there famillies swept out to sea . We will be praying for them all this evening. But as they had given there lives to Jesus we KNOW that they are in God hands.

And these times are sent to test us, when we are safe we testify that God's love had/has saved us from peril and danger. So danger is not new to a Christian is is part of the path we walk to Gods grace

quoting "how special".. ????? Not too sure what you mean by that ? do you or is this some fancy word play thats just gone over my head.

Next time your in need and thoes immortal words come out of your mouth as I g;tee you they will "God help me" just remember this thread.

If the title of your thread was anyway serious or to inflame, then your an idiot

If its because you didnt know any better, then your an ignorant idiot.

Your in the dark my friend you you need to see the light and I pray that you do.

Tasteless title!

tasteless person

[bell]

hey red.......**** off......
yes that was an f-bomb

[Mule]

Can I say that pinkie is a worthless pos without it being considered a personal attack but merely an evaluation?

I think personal attacks are in order.

Red, you're a worthless Edited for content. -Z-man. you and the alien horse you rode in on. You are nothing more than an immature little attention whore.

Zman, feel free to ban me forever.

[bryanthompson]

Mark, I'm with you. I'd rather be banned forever and finally have a reason to stop visiting this forum than listen to ****heads like red-troll. It's obious if Z lets scum like this exist than members like us aren't welcome here.

BTW, Is there any way I could just be banned from OT and stay on the 944 board? I wish I'd never found OT. Oh yeah, it sounds simple, "Just don't click it" well, I'm a creature of habit, and with an addictive personallity. grrrr!

[smoak]

Why is it that this guy gets to continually cause ill will on this board? I am all for allowing opinions but I have personally viewed at least 4-5 threads that had to be closed because of red's "comments." Typically they evoke some kind of personal blast, followed by a mindless rotort from red, which is then met with several others giving it back to him. Free speech is not guaranteed on this forum and I for one am for permanently muting this *********.

Z-man, close this thread, and in the spirit of the holidays give us all a present and BAN THIS GUY!

[cegerer]

Anybody know how to pronounce '****et'?

[jhelgesen]

How about use the "ignore" button on the profile page?

[bryanthompson]

If ignore truly ignored, then it wouldn't be a problem, but his offensive title would have drawn the same response as if I hadn't read his post, which I didn't.

[Porsche-O-Phile]

So much defensiveness. . . Are there really that many people that are offended by the notion that their God might occasionally do things they can't (1) understand, (2) agree with, or (3) support?

And what's with all the red-bashing anyway? If he wants to believe in UFOs, so be it. I've seen more convincing evidence for the existance of UFOs and it happens to be more RECENT than any I've seen for the divinity of Christ. What's the latest the freaks have to offer - oh, that's right - a grilled cheese sandwich. . .

Come on guys, show a little restraint, grow up, and stop being so defensive about something you can neither understand nor (dis)prove.

[ronin]

if there's anyone here that doesn't understand, it appears to be you. interesting that those who deny any existence of God immediately blame Him for anything bad that should befall this planet. as for the existence of UFOs, of course they exist. the term simply stands for

unidentified flying object

not "little green men from outer space"

[Mule]

Another member of the astute observer's society (apparently). Your argument is moving. Does it mean you think that the ufo's caused the earthquake.

As far as being banned, I am (proudly) banned from the rennlist for hurting the feelings of one of john d's pet imbeciles (& apparently john d's too). But pinkie & his ilk were spouting wisdom there too. I was no more tolerant of them there.

[vash]

i think my march trip to thailand just got cancelled. but enough of my misery, i wish the people there a quick recovery.

i dont even know what to say about UFO.

[RANDY P]

Hi Red,

Hope your day is going well. I would've wished you Merry Christmas but you probably would've been considered a personal attack.

Now, we can't have any of that!

Take care,

rjp

That, and Liberals, Democrats, Commies, gays, ragheads, evolutionists, and tree huggin' environmentalists.

Did I leave any out? I'm sure a christian could provide a more comprehensive list.

Where does he stand on SUV drivers? I'm guess if liberals hate SUV's then I guess automatically god loves SUV's. But what about gay's driving SUV's? Whoa - that's a tough one!

Here lemme save you a few keystrokes Red-

YOU ARE ALL A BUNCH OF NEOCON CHRISTIAN REPUBLICAN HALIBURTON WORSHIPPING LEMMINGS!"

I found what "adrian jaye" had to say, to be very interesting.

I have to ask, do you think you guys had it coming?

I don't want to connect any dots on you, but what you wrote may be interpreted as just as proactive as the thread title which Red UFO gave us.
