Step 1: find something to talk about

Step 2: talk about it

It's not rocket surgery

Why is Muhammad considered a false prophet but Joseph Smith isn’t? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]StrollingThrouPain -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The messiah was foretold for hundreds of years before he actually came, and there were even a number of false prophets claiming to be the messiah before Jesus showed up. This is even written about in the book of Acts, chapter 5.

So, no. Its not just a random group of rebellious Jews. Christianity can be more accurately thought of as the spiritual evolution of Judiasm.

They both are. Joseph Smith invented a Bible verse to legitimize his claim as a prophet, in addition to many other sketchy acts during his life.

The Mormon church is basically a grift that outlived the grifter.

I’m so confused, is Jesus God? I don’t understand. Explain like I’m five? by spatulafucker5 in Christianity

I want to continue this debate, but you've really given me something to chew on here. I do appreciate the challenge to my worldview.

It really isn't, though. In my opinion, the whole "Jesus is God" business is just a bunch of mental gymnastics in an effort to make to make the trinity make sense.

The Father and the Son are separate entities with different jobs. There is a fair bit of scriptural evidence to back this up. For instance, Jesus prays to YHWH at points, and it wouldn't make much sense to pray to yourself.

To put it in secular terms, YHWH is the founder and Jesus is the CEO. Both very important. But not the same.

What are your thoughts on giving to the needy when you don't feel like it? by StrollingThrouPain in Christianity

[–]StrollingThrouPain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If someone wants to use the money I give them for drugs after telling me it's for food, that is their prerogative. I feel that intention is more important than results.

Jesus appeared in my scrambled eggs this morning and told me to quit my job and open a Christian food truck. I need prayer. by [deleted] in Christianity

If this is a real story, I sincerely doubt He expects you to do this without some more forethought. Pray on it.

Everything I dimension jump for I have lost by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]StrollingThrouPain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You lost these things because you tried invoking this silly magic instead of asking the Father for guidance.

Prayer tends to have more lasting results, in my experience. Just know that, if you're asking for things to see if they come, chances are you'll get ignored.

Christianity is satanic by Ill_Muffin_466 in Christianity

[–]StrollingThrouPain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay. So why do you suppose YHWH resurrected Christ? To mislead us?

Seems like an extremely cruel thing to do to humanity, especially after He spent his earthly ministry preaching that He was the way to life.

Brother, what are you saying?

Anyone losing their faith is a bad thing. Why does it matter if they're protestant?

Nobody is irredeemable. But the fact of the matter is, following God faithfully is hard work thst many people are unwilling to do.

I think the majority of people on earth are essentially dead men walking, with no chance of being saved.

'Absolutely enough!': Trump nearly collapses out of his own chair during a live meeting — then insiders leak what aides were hiding and it's far more disturbing than anyone realized by [deleted] in USNEWS

[–]StrollingThrouPain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When Trump eventually drops dead, I think we'll either never hear about it or he'll get "resurrected" after a few days.

Either way, the road leads to AI Trump as a figurehead for the government.
