I was commenting on his capitalized HE.

It's hard to understand about what you mean. But it seems to me that God would surpass gender. Why would he need a penis?

Spirit does surpass gender; I'm not going to make a farce out of this. Jesus Christ was a human man. A human man is born with a sex organ of a male. His gender shouldn't be in question. Are you arguing biology or psych/sexuality? Lets not be blasphemous. This is a Christian forum, i believe?
Well it just seemed weird that you capitalized he as if it was a big deal.
I dont think that was sexiest at all.

Well, HE is capitalized in the bible. When speaking of God, you always put HE or HIM capitalized.
Yes because they are talking about God (a proper noun). I mean I capitalize, The Ultimate Truth, Higher Being, Allah, The Other. They are just names for the same thing.
??i can't hold my peace, here...Excuse me, huh? Allah is not the same as our God Jesus Christ. Sue Me.
Correct me if I am wrong but the concept of God and Jesus Christ are two different ideas. The trinity is a hard thing to explain. However Allah IS a proper noun and therefor needed to be capitalized. And I have a problem with your wording....of "our God Jesus Christ" as if we own him or he is only for Christians.
Ok then. 3 points here to quickly make...point 1.)Yes, Allah IS a proper noun; a person, place or thing...sorry if I misunderstood your context.
point 2.)Trinity is like the word Rapture...its not literally in the Word, but the Concept Is.
point 3.)Girl, there is a bibically scriputural concept that suggests if you name the Name of Christ(Jesus), as your Saviour from an Eternal Hell...one is in fact invoking the acknowledgement that HE IS THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE GOD. HE IS THE WORD MADE FLESH.
ALLAH had No Son(redeemer).
Commentary) If we who say we believe all the other peripheral things of the Bible and Do Not accept that Jesus is God then we cannot logically say that we are true Christians, in agreement.
This is a main tenant of our "religion".
Example.) It would be as if a Muslim could express his faith/adoration in Allah yet say also, in the same breath, that he wasn't sure if Mohammed was his prophet & what does it really matter? He can do the rituals of his Religion, but does he have what it takes to know real Peace in life? Is he living the "truth" according to the text of Islam?
Its an non-equatable way of thinking. IMO
In closing.) Pls. don't sow seeds of doubt on a Christian forum, if ur not sure, ask somebody.
Do not be afraid of seeking Godly wisdom.
Asking questions is never wrong.
...But if you are a "rebel" and being "naughty" for a laugh, then a swift rebuke will always find you.
Peaceout
And I don't have any problem with most religions views on who God(s) is.
what about islam.....what do you think about that religion
I have absolutely nothing wrong with it. An amazing culture no doubt. And i will not let a couple of extremist ruin such an old and interesting culture as a whole. Just like I hope that people don't judge Christianity based on a bunch of hillbilly fundis.
do u believe that all religions lead to heaven?
I believe that a belief in the Other leads straight to heaven but mostly I believe that living a good life is what matters most.
you really don't like fundamenatlists, do you
I just see how sometimes people with a good heart and good intentions ruin peoples lives.
i don't think that's a reason to not like them......muslims ruin ppls lives too and your fine with it
no!!!!! I have everything wrong with extremists just like I do lituralists. I was just trying to be polite. Do you really think all Muslims are ruining people's lives. And if you want my personal opinion about fundis I will give it to you.
ok just to define my terms....when i said muslims i meant extremists, also called jihadists.
yes please. i would like to hear ur opinion
yes please. i would like to hear ur opinion
I have everything wrong with people who take theological documents literal.....like, jihadists, creationists, and fundis. Because i haven't seen one good thing come out of it....all I see is a bunch of ignorant kids who don't know a thing about science, a lot of people ruining my friends lives just because of things they can't control, and mostly a bunch of judgmental people who just love hating people.
have you ever thought about the good things that come out of them? hospitals, orphanages, soup kitchens, charities, donation stores were all created by christians, and i can bet a lot that some of them were fundementalists and creationists
abortion bombings, crusades, witch burnings, anti-gay rights, Pat Robertson, taking Thomas jefferson out of textbooks, abstinence only programs, and tainting good science with literal interpretations of biblical passages. I have nothing wrong with Christianity but I in no right want to be associated with the concepts behind the ideas and more.
abortions? bombings? where did you get these? you still think witch burning is going on? creationism is the most sound belief in science! research it! it has answers to tons of things evolution can't answer.
No....but they did happen because of what????? Lituralism. Creationism is based off a 4,000 year old theological book that wasn't to be taken literal anyway. If you would take five minutes and think about it you would understand why evolution makes sense. It is not 110% but nothing in life is. Evolution is made to answer the question on how life formed on Earth...That's it and in the same way it is not mutually exclusive to the idea of an Ultimate Being.
how did abortion come out of lituralism? and how do you blame bombings on fundimentalists?
not just the bible makes creationism true.....just looking at the world, plants, animals, the complex human body, stars, planets and the whole universe, you can tell that a creator had to make it....it couldn't just have evolved.

why not? Maybe we need a topic for science so we can discuss science and religion and how they fit together.
that sounds like a good idea....sry but i have to look at that link tomorrow or something.....i'll tell u when i have. its already 12:00 am and i need to go:(
lol I understand. I am food sick...so i'll be up all night. ;-)
good.....sorry maybe i wasn't clear enough.
i still have things to disagree on it with you, but i think i'll leave it till later cause i'm running out of time
