You shall have no other gods before me

Which I follow, however I do not feel outrage when somone denies the existance of either "MY" God or anyone eles' God.

Wiki says' The deities of polytheistic religions are agents in mythology, where they are portrayed as complex personages of greater or lesser status, with individual skills, needs, desires and histories. These gods are often seen as similar to humans (anthropomorphic) in their personality traits, but with additional individual powers, abilities, knowledge or perceptions.

your obviously a lot smarter than me to understand the differances between Poly whactha ma call it and Trinty

But I will say that I believe in one God which is the trinity of God The Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit

I laugh at no one.

My face does not turn purple but I am sad when any atrocities are commited including in the name of Christianity.

However God has a plan for everything, and not being God I dont understand the mind of God nor can explain his thinking.

Once again I dont laugh at any belief's. You don't seem to understand the holy spirit fully and the reason for for that part of your question. I suggest talking to a good pastor or perhaps attending a church in your area.

old!
Actually I dont think about any of that, I have enough problems with my daily walk with Christ.

Yep I do, God is a forgiving and loving. However he is just. If you go before a judge accused of a crime (lets for argument assume your guilty) you are judged, for that court to have any standing it must following its own judgements.

So if you dont follow Gods word you will be judged, point is (touches on your #6) that we are all sinfull and all fall below expectations. However MY debt has been payed on the cross, my bail, my sentance.

If your offered a get out of jail free card and dont accept it, whoe's fault is it that you go to jail, the judge ?

God can not go back on his word or promises

Not sure what you are asking.. that "modern science, history, geology" blah blah blah, has not convinced me of what? that I'm not saved, that God does not exist?
A man speaking in tongues hasn't either.

Speaking tongues is a gift given by the holy Spirit and has not a lot do to with any thing else. I am convinced through my experiences and life. I am saved through faith, no evidence can argue against that.

Not sure where your getting your stats from... sounds fony balony to me.

Now there your wrong, I call myself a Christian, becuase I am a follower of Christ, I have a personal relationship with God which stands aside from "Bible, Christianity, and church history and religion"

The most important , actually the ONLY important thing that a Christian must know, understand and believe. Is that Christ died and then arose to pay for my sins, therefore I am saved

Romans 12
1
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship.



Hope that helps your questions
