Sure it has. The history shows a self-evident pattern of human origin for morality. You’ll understand that “Thus saith the Lord” will just get is into a pointless back and forth.
They’re trained to kill!
Dogs aren’t. Where’s the connection?
Indeed, some are.
That’s why I re-showed you my own thread. ITs plain as day. If you are in the Spirit of Truth you are of God. The Spirit of deceit is the devil. thats scripture.

Now I see that it is based on scripture though, thanks for the quote.
I would say the scripture itself is mud-throwing, but that’s another discussion. ;p
If a dog got away and got to spend time in the wild or somewhere it was treated as an equal, would it not become whole again also? We might never know. That a dog accepts abuse is not true though, it’d run away after sufficient abuse. The problem is that dogs are so loving creatures they usually just take the punishment and stay with the owner that they love, despite it’s actions.
Yes, it was literal. Not exactly fetch the stick boy, but more like for instance physical punishment when sitting in the couch, and so on.Indeed, some are.
So was your idea of training a person like a dog literal?
Like,“fetch the stick boy”
Ok, now I see where you were going. Disregard my whole Marine thing, I admit I didn’t think that analogy through well enough.
But to a Christian and a true follower of Jesus Christ it is not mud. It is the words of God and it is something that we try to follow the best we can to gain eternal life. You do not have to accept Christ, its free will. But well, you read the scripture as well as I did.Now I see that it is based on scripture though, thanks for the quote.

I did state that I didn’t direct the comment at someone in particular though, but at the general mood of the debate.

How so? You don’t believe in Christ so what does it matter to you? Not trying to be mean, but genuniely asking.
Absolutely, I understand that, but what is one person’s most cherished treasure might be another person’s mud. I just wanted to emphasize that. Not comparing scripture to mud, obviously, but just emphasizing that some scripture quotes still can be seen as mud-throwing although christians see it as the most beautiful thing in the world.
Scripture, whether written by/for god or not, true or not, still has several offensive statements towards for instance athiesm. Regardless of the authenticity of the Bible, of the truth about Christ and the existance of god, these texts can still be seen as offensive.
I would venture to say Christ, regardless if you believe or not, has been offended by many things you’ve said or done against Him.
Only to people who do not accept the teachings of Christ. But if you don’t believe in God, or the scriptures why would you care anyway. You know what I mean. Like I could care less what athiests say about me. Or write about Christians. I could care less what People who worship satan say about Christians. I would never even want to go to a satanic site and ask them what they think. I would feel this way we have nothing in common so why even go there. Time is more important to me than that. I would rather help people and pray for them and spread the good news.Absolutely, I understand that, but what is one person’s most cherished treasure might be another person’s mud.

I would also agree that a dog is not the same as a human being, but I would insist that there are significant similarities in the way our minds work. A dog is indeed an animal, but I would say a human is also a species in the animal world.

What’s with the tone? The first paragraph I can take, but looking at the entire post you come across like a spoiled teenager who didn’t get invited to a party.
This is a nice sentiment and all, but, you’ve stated in the past that you would like to see religion wiped out. That kids should not be taught religion, etc.
It’s simple rinne, people don’t look for what they’ve already found.
And I’ve seen several catholics with opinions I don’t want to live with either, but what are we going to do? Kill eachother?
