You have indicated on occasion that you don't like people asking you questions.
No true at all . And you cannot give me one example. But regardless I will then make yet another declaration just for you.
Declaration;
I welcome any and all questions that are relevant to any and all threads that I create and or take part in. Now cut that out and keep it should I fail to live up to that / MY. declaration.
You like to ask questions.
Yes. And?
You don't like to answer questions.
see Declaration; above
In fact you become irate when I have asked you questions.
Not if they are relevant to the thread. I admit to getting annoyed when YOU deliberately swerve and divert purposefully from the theme of a thread, especially when you cannot answer the question. . A very recent example of your diversionary behaviour can be seen here bottom of post here>>
#28 and here
#30, where on both those post I had to remind not to divert to something that has nothing to do with the theme/topic of the thread, and worse still, something that was ALREADY being discussed and argued on another thread. You ignored this, twice
You put questions. This is true. And it is fair to say that you put questions from the bible - questions that have been raised in your mind.
No. I put questions that have been raised because of what is written and or been said in and of in the scriptures as shown above.
You do not always produce your sources - very often I have asked and not received.
The bible is usually my source of queries. You just don't know your scripture enough to realise that. And something else that you always fail to realise, is that I don't have to prove anything.. at all, concerning the unreliable and ambiguous scriptures. That is your job unfortunately. But you haven't been equipped to deal with such deep and probing questions have you? or even simple ones. You have just had the scriptures read to you and told which page to turn to, haven't you? You have never really been given the chance to question, and probe and scrutinize these unreliable and ambiguous scriptures for yourself, have you? Or you don't know how to.
Most of your response here is WAFFEL. And does not deserve a response.
Then simply do not respond. I don't care either way.
Many times I have asked for your source and you refuse to provide it.
" many" . Ok give me one.
I cannot recall even one source you have provided that I criticized. Please provide an example.
That's your job, you are making the accusation and the claim. Show me where I have not given sources for what I have claimed. You can't can you.
Ok. But you should not make assumptions either which are contrary to what the teaching of the church has indicated was said.
YOU speak here of assumptions.
So we cannot assume that John was baptised and given authority by god? We cannot assume that the one authorized to baptise or performing the baptismal rite should have FIRST been baptised himself? YOU make assumption continually, you goddamn hypocrite!
we I in most parts are merely passing on the teaching of what i have received.
Yes I gathered that. But expect to be called out on what it is that you have "received" and are "passing on" and stop crying about it when you are. And it is apparent to me that you are simply not questioning for yourself what it is that you have "received" and are "passing on" before you have "passed it on"!
I do not have an agenda. I really don't.
You do. You have admitted as much right there above. You are passing on the word of your god, That is your agenda.
He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation".Mark 16:15
