Religious thrown back!!

Posted by cbgiles on January 8, 2009 at 6:18pm
I sent out an email and bcc'd all the people I sent this email to.There's this one guy in particular, on the bcc list, who I met and sat next to at a comic book convention back in '01 and we talked shop and became friends, was one of the people I sent this email to. I was forwarding an advertisement email to my friends about the Danny the Dinosaur book 1 announcement from the sellers that I did the art for just to let my friends and especially comic artist and writer friends to know that I had something published. It's a Christian book but I wasn't being preachy but check out what he responded with: "Brent-- please do not send me any religious messages in future.....................MH"I shouldn't be offended but it's not like I was hitting him over the head and I hardly send him any kind of email unless it's art related. So it's not like he's fed up over the junk I send.I'm praying that this was a snag to his heart. Unfortunately I think he's overly encrusted and I just irritated his slumber. He was polite. Who knows? What'll ya'll think?

davlin02 Re: CHRISTIANITY IS: Jun 9, 2008 4:52 AMThe belief that some cosmic Jewish zombie can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh, drink his blood, and telepathically tell him that you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in all humanity because arib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magic tree.Reply | Forward | Printcbgiles Re: CHRISTIANITY IS: Jun 9, 2008 12:59 PMPREACH IT, Brother!!!!!! Except for the symbollic eating of His flesh and drinking His blood...that'll never be the salvation of the soul. Other than that...two thumbs up!May the LORD bless you and reveal Himself to you!!!Reply | Forward | Printdavlin02 Re: CHRISTIANITY IS: Jun 9, 2008 4:29 PMI was being sarcastic.

Jesus Says To Kill Your Family

Posted by cbgiles on June 24, 2008 at 6:47am
Here's an email conversation that happened earlier this month between myself and a person identified only as "dalvin02"Jesus Says To Kill Your Family Jun 8, 2008 4:53 PMdavlin02 Re: Matthew 10 : 34 - 37Luke 14 : 26Reply | Forward | Printcbgiles Re: Jesus Says To Kill Your Family Jun 8, 2008 11:06 PMMatthew 10:30-40 (The Message)Forget About Yourself29-31"What's the price of a pet canary? Some loose change, right? And God cares what happens to it even more than you do. He pays even greater attention to you, down to the last detail—even numbering the hairs on your head! So don't be intimidated by all this bully talk. You're worth more than a million canaries.32-33"Stand up for me against world opinion and I'll stand up for you before my Father in heaven. If you turn tail and run, do you think I'll cover for you?34-37"Don't think I've come to make life cozy. I've come to cut—make a sharp knife-cut between son and father, daughter and mother, bride and mother-in-law—cut through these cozy domestic arrangements and free you for God. Well-meaning family members can be your worst enemies. If you prefer father or mother over me, you don't deserve me. If you prefer son or daughter over me, you don't deserve me.38-39"If you don't go all the way with me, through thick and thin, you don't deserve me. If your first concern is to look after yourself, you'll never find yourself. But if you forget about yourself and look to me, you'll find both yourself and me.Luke 14:25-40 (The Message)Figure the Cost25-27One day when large groups of people were walking along with him, Jesus turned and told them, "Anyone who comes to me but refuses to let go of father, mother, spouse, children, brothers, sisters—yes, even one's own self!—can't be my disciple. Anyone who won't shoulder his own cross and follow behind me can't be my disciple.28-30"Is there anyone here who, planning to build a new house, doesn't first sit down and figure the cost so you'll know if you can complete it? If you only get the foundation laid and then run out of money, you're going to look pretty foolish. Everyone passing by will poke fun at you: 'He started something he couldn't finish.'31-32"Or can you imagine a king going into battle against another king without first deciding whether it is possible with his ten thousand troops to face the twenty thousand troops of the other? And if he decides he can't, won't he send an emissary and work out a truce?33"Simply put, if you're not willing to take what is dearest to you, whether plans or people, and kiss it good-bye, you can't be my disciple.34"Salt is excellent. But if the salt goes flat, it's useless, good for nothing."Are you listening to this? Really listening?"Luke 15:1-11 (The Message)The Story of the Lost Sheep1-3By this time a lot of men and women of doubtful reputation were hanging around Jesus, listening intently. The Pharisees and religion scholars were not pleased, not at all pleased. They growled, "He takes in sinners and eats meals with them, treating them like old friends." Their grumbling triggered this story.4-7"Suppose one of you had a hundred sheep and lost one. Wouldn't you leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the lost one until you found it? When found, you can be sure you would put it across your shoulders, rejoicing, and when you got home call in your friends and neighbors, saying, 'Celebrate with me! I've found my lost sheep!' Count on it—there's more joy in heaven over one sinner's rescued life than over ninety-nine good people in no need of rescue.Does that say kill your family?Reply | Forward | Printdavlin02 Re: Jesus Says To Kill Your Family Jun 9, 2008 4:27 AMMatthew 10:34I have come not to send peace, but a sword.That sounds pretty violent to me.Matthew 10:36A man's foes shal be they of his own houshold.Gee, that tells me to hate my own family.So in other words, I have to love Jesus more than my own family? I have to turn my back on my own flesh and blood?SCREW YOU!!!!!!!Reply | Forward | Printcbgiles Re: Jesus Says To Kill Your Family Jun 9, 2008 12:54 PMSo in other words, it doesn't say that Jesus said to kill your family?

George Carlin

Posted by cbgiles on June 23, 2008 at 4:25pm
I think self-professing God-haters are aloud to live here and be outspoken to make sinners like me realize what a wonderful, powerful God that He is.Carlin said 'if God is so great, why's the world a flop?' He doesn't realize God did make it perfect, we mucked it up. The earth is like a perfect ice cream scoop and we opened the freezer door and don't have the power to shut it.Since hearing about this atheist's death, I have prayed over and over today for God's help to keep me from hating the haters. Spitting the LORD's name and talking worse about Him than child molesters. Guy's like him drive me berzerk. I can't gloat on this...he was lost(according to his fruit).I can and can't imagine what he's going through right now and from now on.It crushes my heart!!!

Posted by cbgiles on November 24, 2007 at 6:09am

Why does when I view my page, a Christian fellowship group, is it supported by "Find sexy women" and "PIMP your profile" type advertisements? Come on, isn't that ironic?

Jesus Christ went into cities such as Jerusalem and taught there. When night came he always retreated to the outskirts of town to sleep as to not be associated with the evils of the cities...the temptations and appearences of evil.
