Todd, I'm sure you've answered this before

[Problem Child]

But how do you reconcile being an upstanding God-fearing Christian with perving out at a porno website, posting pictures of your alledged 12" cock on the web, writing dirty stories, peeking in windows and jerking off, and fucking hard-boiled emu eggs?

Seems like God would have your ass on a waiting list for heaven with that kind of a rap sheet.

Im not Todd but I can answer how a friend of mine justifies it, she is a 'ho straight up...makes me seem like a nun. She says Jesus died for her sins and as long as she is remorseful and asks god for his forgiveness she will sit with him one day in the kingdom of heaven...

I just think it is pretty nice to have no culpability for your actions. To bad I am pagan and I am the only one who has to answer for my actions.

 

[alexandraaah]

Sounds like hell for the living, no?

Like the worst of both worlds...

Huh? How bout gettin' off the crack pipe and answering straight up for once.

Sounds like most of the "Good Christians" I've met. Although you left off their other passtimes of throwing stones, judging others, spreading gossip, spreading hate, either spreading their legs for any guy with money or spreading their seed around behind their wives' backs, forcing the dumbing down of society in the name of the church and forcing their views on others.

But by golly, they're good church goin' people!

David had a twelve-inch cock?

So, if you're Christian, you can sin your ass of your whole life, then five minutes before you die, ask forgiveness and you're going to the land O' milk and honey, but if your non-Christian, you can lead a perfect life and not hurt a fly, but you're still going to hell?

No wonder the Catholic church is so big. It's full of idiots.

 

[Nora]

Nooooooo Problem Child! Don't leave out the Baptists! As long as they're *truly* sorry they raped and murdered that little kid, it's ok! They get to go to heaven!

I am not saying her presumptions are correct, I am not well versed enough on the dogma of her particular branch of christianity, but according to her, you hit the proverbial nail on the head.

Well, if adam had maybe eve wouldn't have gotten curious about forbidden knowledge, eh?

Well hey there Yayati. You have yet another name registered here to spread hate I see.

What? You aren't Yototwat? Could have fooled me. You sound just like him.

My thoughts exactly.

Nah, yayati can't form sentences that well.

 

[Cheyenne]

Nah, yayati can't for sentences that well.

Maybe not, but the tone of hatred came through loud and clear.

 

[Nora]

uh, no. Sorry to disappoint, but my hatred's my own. And happily I'm free to express it, just as you're free to express your disagreement with my opinion.

 

[Velius]

Maybe not, but the tone of hatred came through loud and clear.

Eh, I have seen "Good Christians" like that enough to know it happens. Maybe Nora was a bit up on the scorn level, but nothing as flat out moronic as yayati would post.

 

[Cheyenne]

uh, no. Sorry to disappoint, but my hatred's my own. And happily I'm free to express it, just as you're free to express your disagreement with my opinion.

At least you recognize it for what it is. That is more than Yoyotwat can say.

 

[AzureAngel]

Todd, if I'm understanding your response correctly, you're saying "they did it, so I can, too." This goes hand in hand with "I can be forgiven for anything" reasoning.

Some important things to keep in mind - in the cases you cite, they were not fully conscious of doing wrong (say, David). When they realized what had been done, they were repentent. However, you're quite aware of what you're doing. Thus, it's not the same ball game.

Do you think the "do whatever I feel like, fully aware of the wrong of my actions, then go for forgiveness" scheme would REALLY work? I'm not God, but think about it. Do you think this would be considered pleasing? Again, I'm not God, but I'd give you the finger and an express train to hell.

Furthermore, if I understand your reasoning - you're referring to Song of Solomon as a "dirty story." That is entirely untrue - it is a dialogue between two lovers, a confession of love. While in 5th and 6th grade at a religious school I believed it was a cornucopia of filth, the truth of it is that it doesn't get much worse than flowery declarations of love for the other's body. I.E. "Your breasts are like twin gazelles," or something to that effect. I have not read your stories here on Lit, but I have not found Song of Solomon to be a "dirty story" of any sort - unlike most all of the erotica I've read.

I don't follow an organized religion currently, so my answers surely aren't as fantastic as they could be. And perhaps I'm interpreting wrong.

Gimme more to work with, then.

 

[Nora]

Yes, I freely admit that i hate religious hypocracy.

 

[AzureAngel]

Yes, I freely admit that i hate religious hypocracy.

Whereas non-religious hypocricy is fantastic! YAY!

 

[Laurel]

Now I have tea all over my monitor, you evil person you.

 

[Nora]

lol well, that wasn't the point of the conversation. *g*
