Quote# 592

[Plus, it harms other people!]

Doing things that feel good but are harmful to other people is a sign of immaturity. All you need to do is grow up and it will be simple.

God doesn't want to keep us from having fun it's about being a good person and not hurting other people.

Quote# 593

You think you aren't harming others but you are treating whoever you are "lusting" after as an object. That is disrespectful. Treating people disrespectfully is harmful to them, whether you want to believe it or not.

Men using photographs of women to satisfy their "lust" is a big factor in the rotten treatment of women the world over. If you treat an image of a woman as a plaything to be used to satisfy your desires, which is disrespectful, you will be more likely to use real women the same way. This may not lead to rape in any one 15 year old boy but it does lead to rape in men who have the tendency to abuse others.

Maybe someday you'll take a class in Ethics and you'll discover a clue.

[It leads to rape, too!] Your right, the urges you have. If you are 13 years old, playing with yourself, trying to determine whether or not it's right. What in the hell is going to happen 2 years from now, if you can't control these urges you speak of, now?? Hmmm.... As I said, 'Rape? WHO KNOWS.'

Is it really harmful to someone to not have sex in the middle of the freeway if they get a sudden urge while commuting?

Quote# 596

[On natural sexual urges]

So if someone has a "completely natural" urge to never exercise and eat five yummy chickens and seven pints of ice cream every day it would be wrong to resist? Telling that person to resist that urge would be "horrible and repressive"?

Quote# 597

[After being asked whether people who masturbate are True Christians™]

If you were asking me that question I would have to say no your not. If you are a Christian, you are following the will of God. Masturbating or any form of sexual misconduct is not following God's law. If you disagree with me, then perhaps you should look up fornication in the bible.

Ok so why do athiests use the phrase 'god damn it' in the first place if they don't believe there actually is a God who damns? Hypocrites...

[More objection to atheists using 'Oh my God!']

the fact that you are claiming possesion to a God you do not even believe in and using that possession for, what we consider, a sinful purpose. And, in a small way, you are mocking us because it isn't your God if you understand what I'm saying.

Do you think a 120 year old Theory is going to refute a 6,000 year old Fact.

I dont think poverty is as bad as people may think, though I havent really experienced it myself so how should I know? But if those who are poor wish they had more, is it any different from those who want more and have it, and always want more?

[On Jesus--and boy, does this guy need a history lesson]

So that fact that he came back to life(which has been historically verified), and the many miracles he performed that were confirmed historically from outside the Christian populace don't count as verifiable?

Quote# 611

[After 'Dr. Dino' Kent Hovind, young-earth creationist extraordinaire, the guy who doesn't need building permits because he only recognizes the sovereignty of God's kingdom, who claims the Smithsonian Institution killed people to make fake hominid fossils from, got arrested for burglary and assault, with three eyewitnesses and an admission to the crime]

Some athiest probably made the story up. I mean, there's nothing to prove that Mr. Hovind was arrested that could not have been forged, and why would he have done something like that?"

You're right, some Creationist claims are a little bit on the weird side, but we believe that these things could not have happened without help from a higher power. Now, try to come up with a better reasonable explanation for evolution (and dont give me no crap about 'evidence').

Still refuse to believe that the Bible is true? I pity you, and regret that your ticket to hell is non-refundable except at the Customer Service Desk of the Bible. I don't see how you refuse to believe that the service desk is right behind you, and refuse to turn around to look and see if it's true.

Quote# 615

As for what's called physical evil - natural disasters and the like - well, these things can be avoided or prevented if we come to a better understanding of God and His Creation. (Including, of course, the natural laws governing that Creation. I think it's part of my Christian duty to have faith and practice the scientific method.) So, the answer to the question 'Why doesn't God do something about physical evil in the world?" is "He did; He made us.'
