You sound like Beliathon there.
Well, if Beliathon knows and quotes the Bible, he may not be wrong in what he knows and quotes. If he doesn't believe in Jesus salvation, all his Bible knowledge and quoting is worthless for him.
Since the Pope is a sinner, and since BitNow's faith seems to be in the Pope, she might as well be an atheist. If she doesn't change, she will die in Hell, even if she lives for a short while here.
I was pointing out that Beliathon said people should kill themselves because he thought they should think that they should, He was thinking for the Christians. You said BitNow should kill themselves, because you thought BitNow should think they should. You were thinking for BitNow.
I understand they were both instances where people were trying to use the example of absurdness to prove a point, but I don't agree with ever telling someone they should commit suicide to try to win an argument. I don't think anyone has ever proven their point using that argument, and it does more damage than benefit.
IMHO.
No. I was only showing BitNow how ridiculous she is for wanting all atheists to die. If she thinks that they should die when God says they should live, and all they were doing is sinning, perhaps she should die for sinning, because that's all that atheists did - sin.
We are all under law because of sin. None of us is righteous enough to live, based on our own doing. Therefore, it is not right to pronounce death on anyone else, because you fall under the same sentence.
That's what I said. You should have started that paragraph with a "yes" not a "no".
I said, your example and Beliathon's example "were both instances where people were trying to use the example of absurdness (ridiculousness as you called it) to prove a point." The example of absurdness is exaggerating your point to the point you said "if you believe that, then you should kill yourself". Both you and Beliathon did that.
Well, I don't always recognize all my sins. Thus, even though I don't accept something as a sin when it is, I accept that God will recognize the truth. And I bow to His greater understand, ask forgiveness for my sinning as well as my lack of understanding, and am forgiven in the forgiveness Jesus spreads abroad.
As for all of us using the English language, Beliathon and you and I, and a great many others do.
