I do have a high IQ, can you spell that? I have had a full life, full of experiences with all sorts of religious folk who are the ones that try their hardest to convert me into some ideology full of the pagan influence that Christendom favours with all its wicked heart.
IQ is spelled Eye Que. Really, that's a no brainer. I know this because I have a high IQ. What's Christendom anyway? Sometimes I don't get that concept. Maybe I'm one of those religious folks that you condemn.

If he/she was to come down off that podium he/she has placed himself/herself on, his/her IQ wouldn't be nearly so high...........just saying

He/she is looking for folks to debate him/her so he/she can gather information to take back to debatedotorg

Kinda reminds you of the old adage.........Please do not feed the trolls.......

I am actually intellectually gifted. I do not need to hang onto pagan rituals to fill my world with wonder and intelligence, I get it from the Bible, not from the mouths of the demons that sway the feeble minds of the masses.

I know that the truth is very hard on some of the other feeble minds hereabout.
Seriously.... smh

What does being intellectually gifted have to do with being relationally and emotionally sick? If anything, being intellectually gifted is a hindrance to relational health. Arrogance, on the other hand, is a spiritual sickness.
I was going to say, "arrogance and ignorance often go hand in hand. Since you have the one, I wouldn't be so sure about not having the other..."

But for Christmas I didn't.

Thanks for dragging it out of me :)

I'v literally heard and read more "Christians" bad mouth Christmas than non-Christians this whole month. Like someone said, don't ruin the holidays for everyone.

No, his problem is he came over here from Debate.Org to do just what he is doing.

Argue against Christians. In that way honing his skills, and gathering information on how best to argue against Christians. Once he has had his fill, or Admin sends him packing, he will return to Debate.Org.

He even created a fake Profile Page there in order to join here.................imagine that.......

:)

Type his Screen Name into your search engine and take a look for yourselves.

I bet you are a keen reader of Shilock Holms, one problem, you are only as good as a Shilock, not a Sherlock, and I bet you continue with your senior privilege to get rid of me from here, as the Truth Hurts. A fake profile page....Please produce that evidence, Inspector.

what load of gobbledegook you come up with. That was my first entry on that place, wherever it was and there is no information. I think my life was cut short there an had no chance to answer the silly questions.

However, I must thank you for referring your fan to Marakorpa on the net. Read the poems, such great stuff from one so aged. And the discussions on the forum are just so pleasant to read.

Yehaaa! 100 posts and I am still here, what a liberated forum this is?????

As you are a senior member here, I can presume that you are a bit full of yourself as well. Being intellectually gifted, at 80 years of age and being barred from debate org because I dared to speak the truth, which I have seen none of coming from your end of the page, is a joy to me as it shows that the Truth will always be in contention with satan and his cohorts.

I do have a high IQ, can you spell that? I have had a full life, full of experiences with all sorts of religious folk who are the ones that try their hardest to convert me into some ideology full of the pagan influence that Christendom favours with all its wicked heart.

Where are you in all this? Can you, in all honesty, state that your creed is the Truth and has no foreign bodies in its eye. Are you Catholic, a creed filled with paedophiles and corrupt clergy? Are you of the English church that encourages homosexual clergy and parishioners? or, by chance, do you seek the truth so that it may set you free? Maybe you are involved in the Russian Coptic group who enjoy raiding and laying false information for the Russian squads to collect to ban the organisation, with the backing of Putin? There are many creeds and doctrines for you to claim, but none of them is the Truth except one, God's Truth.

Bye the way, I turned 80 on the 1st October 2018, close to the real birth date of Jesus, and this is from secular scholars.

Another Bye the way, I don't want to take on the onerous burden of trying to teach this lot anything, all I want is the same airspace as everyone else. Maybe, just maybe someone there will see the light in my words, taken from years of study and dedication. And here is one up your lack of knowledge about me, I am not a JW.
You were barred from the debate page for breaking the rules continually. They gave you many chances to not break the rules but you continually did it anyway. You are no martyr, you are a troll, what does the Bible say about troublemakers and divisive people? Oh expell them. That's what it says and that's what they did.
Intellectually gifted ...? Delusional is more correct.
As for Christmas celebration...
Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
Colossians 2:16 KJV
Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand. One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
Romans 14:4‭-‬6 KJV
Let what is written in scripture be the final authority.

Would you mind revealing your real age, it could answer a lot of questions. And, did you quote those verses for yourself or is it all right for you to judge but not me????

And have you any idea of the connection of the scripture at Colossians that you quote, which was a bane of contention between Peter and Paul.

I will not continue to DEBATE with you as you are whipping yourself into a frenzy now, and I might be castigated, relegated, proposed for reconstructive surgery and the like.

Romans 14:1, you missed this one 'but do not pass judgment on differing opinions.'

Tis not judgement to say a person did a thing that they did in deed do. You were banned from the debate form for continually breaking the rules. That's not judgment it is what happened.
I don't know why this concept is so hard to grasp.
No, it's not a bane of contention. Because there is no contention between Paul and Peter. There was one incident and it is clearly explained as to what happened.

You are the only one who judged anyone, when you judged those who celebrate Christmas.

I visited my family today as we get together for Christmas Eve. Before our meal, we prayed together. Then we ate food the Lord provided us. Before opening presents, we prayed together again, thanking God for giving us His perfect Gift, Jesus. We had such a great time laughing together and enjoying such a wonderful time of fellowship :)

Let's say: It isn't your birthday, but some other people want this time of the year to celebrate a birthday that didn't happen. Now not only is it not your birth date, you, as you grow up, don't celebrate your birthday anyway and have never in your 33 years of life, but the others demand that you do so that they can have family feasts that usually the mother of the family slaves, saves and labours over, cleaning up the scraps after the event. And what an event; families that are a bit disconnected get to bring up old arguments in their cups, even to the point of physical violence.

You look upon your birthday celebration as a big waste of time, and not about your ethics at all, but next year, when the money moguls get the tinsel out, your birthday will be used as an excuse for the damage done.

Don't think that the money, alone, wasted could be put to better use? Don't you think that the kids, when they find out there is no Santa, start to believe that it is all right to lie? Don't you think that seeing the family argue over who got the best present and why is distressing?

I bet you do when the last stubbie falls and you regret the argument you had with your least often seen relative...I bet you do.

I laugh, as it never happens to me.
Merry christmas, I realy wonder why you started this thread. You dont celebrate christmas and your posts showing no love and also help nobody to grow in faith.
