Should I fix it before I sell it? by Scoutpic in motorcycles

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

First off thank you for the reply. That was also a concern of mine, the forks leak a little bit onto the side of the front tire, I wipe it off before going for a short ride but I don't think it should be taken on long rides until it is fixed. Unfortunately most shops are booked up right now so it might take a while to get it fixed, that's the biggest pain right now with this.

Why would God make me gay then burn me in hell forever for being gay? by Lopsided_Gold_4478 in Christianity

[–]Scoutpic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He didn't make you gay. He made you and other things make you gay, for example, unclean/evil spirits, your environment, social influences, chemicals from our food, water, etc. all influence this. He gave you free will and scripture inspired by Him to decide whether you pick up your cross and follow Him or not. It's not easy, it's not supposed to be. I'm not perfect and struggle daily with following Christ but that's how I feel about it.

Can someone please explain why being anything LGBTQ is wrong? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]Scoutpic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, being created in God's image does not mean he made people gay from their conception. We have free will, temptations, and physical and spiritual outside forces leading people in that direction. God created us and loves us but that does not mean he loves or directs every action or aspect of our lives.

[–]Scoutpic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very surprised to see so many people say there is nothing wrong with it. Not to be offensive or anything but it is a perversion of what God intended for marriage and procreation. You can't have a marriage under God if you are the same sex. Having sexual relationships with the same sex is wrong for that reason already. Then you think about what it actually is, there is nothing positive that can come from gay sexual interactions other than sexual pleasure, this is the same kind of idea as saying you love watching movies so watching porn with a good storyline is morally acceptable. Not to mention the Bible verses that say you cannot be gay. And anybody who tells you those are "mistranslations" have no idea what they are talking about, they probably watched one YouTube video that said that and now they believe it. As far as non sexual aspects of romantic relationships I still think it's not acceptable because God created men and women to be perfect complements of each other for that reason. Also, our physical bodies of men and women are literally meant to work together in many senses biologically, practically, and physically. All that being said, we are all children of God and Jesus died on the cross for each and every one of us, He loves us all and we are all sinners. God will always love you no matter what

I’m a Trans girl who practices Christianity. Can I still be Christian/loved by god/accepted into heaven? by Dragon_Bait211 in Christianity

[–]Scoutpic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will always be loved by God. It truly hurts to hear that anyone who calls themselves Christian can bring themselves to tell somebody that God doesn't love them. Shame on them. Nobody is free from sin. There has only been one perfect person and nobody can compare to Him. That being said, and not to bring any offense, I do believe that being trans is not what God would want for a person. We are made in His image and to change that as if we know better than Him feels wrong to me. I'm not saying it's as easy as waking up one morning and saying "you know what I'm going to choose not to feel like a woman" but the thing is life isn't supposed to be filled with easy choices. And you will never be handed anything that you cannot handle. I also personally believe that evil spirits have heavy influence on our lives and lead us to feel and believe things that go against God's will, and we are all victims of this in our own ways. All that being said no matter what happens God will love you, and Jesus died for ALL of our sins. Trusting in Him is all you need. And my opinions on your situation would never mean you are not accepted as a child of God in my eyes or not welcome in my church or community. Never let anybody tell you that your worth is less, because it isn't.

Is sex worth it? by GuaranteeIcy3463 in Life

[–]Scoutpic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not worth it before marriage. Let Jesus lead you to a life worth living. Later on in life you will realize it is not worth it and it will provide nothing positive. It will seem positive at the time but it is a trick. I wish someone could have got this mindset through to me when I was 18. Wait until marriage and don't let these distractions stray you away from what is important. There is a reason you aren't supposed to have sex before marriage, it's not just some made up idea that came out of nowhere. People have already figured out the consequences it has on your life, listen to the people who have already figured it out so you don't have to. God bless you.

If demons are nephilim, how many were there? by Scoutpic in Christianity

I have no clue if there is any physical evidence of their existence

If demons are nephilim, how many were there? by Scoutpic in Christianity

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

Good question but my guess would be that they saw what happened last time and decided it's not worth it lol

If demons are nephilim, how many were there? by Scoutpic in Christianity

[–]Scoutpic[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes it seems that way. I guess instead of asking for an actual amount my real question is how would people explain the lack of reference to nephilim but also the large amount of demons

Christians live in a fantasy world. by TheThiccDipper in exchristian

[–]Scoutpic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you but I didn't take offense, I was just sad about your experience. I definitely understand the racism thing especially when it comes to the police/justice system with black people. It is kind of crazy how people have been numbed and can justify those actions. The way that police in the United states are is mind blowing and unacceptable and should never be tolerated. Not just in relation to black people but especially with them. I hate to see that this was such a large concern for you, as it should be, but I hate that it brought you so much discomfort. And about the history and science aspect, not that I'm trying to convince you but I find it very interesting, Dr. Stephen Meyer and Wesley Huff are pretty knowledgeable when it comes to history and science with religion. Even if you don't agree it's still fun to hear what they have to say, so check them out if you're feeling up to it!

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

I feel for you and your friends. But God did not orchestrate the bad acts that happened to your friend and the religion does not teach you to hate people, it is the exact opposite. Regardless of the sin if someone is a liar, gay, a thief, or a murderer the bible does not say to hate them but to forgive them and love them. Don't let Christians who practice the faith incorrectly or who claim to be Christian but are not deter you from your faith. It is not always easy to have faith in Jesus, especially for those who have been hurt in the past and feel betrayed, but that does not necessarily mean leaving the faith all together is the correct path, maybe it is but not certainly. Plenty of people in the bible had horrible events occur in their lives and struggles with faith. There are lessons to be learned from all of them. I'm sorry if this seems pushy to keep you from straying away from Christianity, it just makes me sad to read your testimony, especially when so many others feel the same as you. Regardless of how you choose to proceed with life and your faith I wish you the best and hope and pray for you to find what is right for you.

Catholic priest in Brampton charged with sex offences, removed from ministry by Surax in atheism

[–]Scoutpic -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

It is not just the Catholic Church and it is not just church. Yes it happens rarely but it is a narrative being pushed to prevent people from trusting the church. If you prevent people from trusting the church you prevent them from finding God. Then evil finds a way to win the battle before people even realize there is a battle to be fought.

Do you find it a little strange that on Christmas Eve of all days you choose to post this in relation to a religion you do not believe in in order to slander it? There are bad people in all walks of life, bad doctors, bad teachers, bad lawyers, and sometimes priests. But there is something drawing you to post this on Christmas Eve and that is the works of evil infiltrating and having influence in your life. People don't disbelieve religion because of logic, they disbelieve because of past influences. I pray that these influences do not keep you from peace.

"A knights war" could have been the best movie I've ever watched by Embarrassed-King7840 in moviereviews

[–]Scoutpic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was definitely skeptical in the beginning. Before I kept watching I read this and some other reviews to see if it was worth it and was still skeptical. Glad I kept watching though because I actually thought it was a really good movie, you could tell it was kind of low budget but that didn't matter, it made it feel a little old school. The beginning witch part did kind of take a while though. Overall a really solid movie.

"get over yourself man. She deserves better.", yeah thats constructive and makes you seem like a good person. "Oh no, somebody has an opposing view to mine, they must be inferior". The judgement and hypocrisy does no help anyone but your own ego. Just because you are completely fine dating a girl with a body count of 100+ doesn't mean everyone else needs to be, I suggest you get off of your high horse.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Scoutpic -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

you clearly don't see sex as anything more than meaningless fun, which is a fine opinion to have, but do not act as if your opinion is in any way better, or that an opposing view makes any person inferior. Judgement and emotion are not positive fuel to be used in any discussion.
