I know you think "winning souls" is the right thing to do, but you arrogant and NOT special. Either NONE of us are God's chosen people or ALL of us are. Keep your MAN-MADE rules of religion out of peoples faces. It's ok for us to not believe in something we can't see... "You can't see wind, and you accept that." YEAH, but we can SEE the effects of wind (trees, birds moving, etc.) I see NO effects of divine intervention, so please...keep you beliefs in your church.

If the question doesn't apply to you, you don't have to answer. If you feel like "Hey, that's not me"...Then I am not directing the question to you. :) see how that works? huh? huh? you don't? Of coarse.

Um...when one posts a question doesn't everyone answer it from their own experience and knowledge? Speaking one's truth is not an attack. Believing differently or experiencing the spiritual realm differently and speaking what you've come to know (not just believe) is not an attack. Granted, people shouldn't condemn anyone to hell (judge not lest ye be judged...) Chill some, okay? The world doesn't begin and end in Answers. There is still time to grow and learn for all of us (though tomorrow is not promised). No one has to keep their beliefs locked up somewhere else. If you can't handle it maybe you can find another subject that would be easier on your nerves. Okay? You can't control how, when, and what people will answer.

Why don't u leave the R/S section If YOU are not BELIEVER? Winning souls is the way to go especially to get to Heaven. Soul winners r special because when they get to heaven they will receive a crown. We are God's chosen people because we believe.Religion is man-made but God's rules isn't. Yes,it's o.k. for you and others to not believe but you must realize this is a free country with freedom of speech laws. Christians Beliefs Will Continue To Be Shared And We Will Continue To Be Soul Winners In The Name Of Jesus!

I totally understand where you might feel that way!! Especially when you can't see the effects of divine intervention. I am a believer and I don't always feel those effects but that is where faith comes in. Also, you really can't blame us for not discussing it. It is kinda of like we know about this cool party and we would love to have as many as people we can to come and join in all the fun. We don't want anyone to miss the party. I hope you might see it from our side too!!! I also agree that I can't stand pushy people that try to make you do something you don't want to....God is not like that! He doesn't push, people do. Listen or watch for God so you don't miss out.

It is your "non believers" who keep asking for our help and wisdom. You keep asking us questions here, and when we answer (although maybe not in the wisest manner), you complain.
If you would stop asking for us, I mean if you would stop begging us for the truth, and could prove that none of you are interested in God anymore, Jesus would take us home today! Until that happens, we will continue to be here for you, and to serve you with the wisdom of the Bible. Not one of you can speak for all, but all must speak for themselves.
Think about it, why do some of us respond with some of the most silly answers you have ever heard? Because, some of us are new, fresh from the world. People like you are accepting Jesus everyday. Until no one wants Jesus, we have to stay and witness. Besides, God owns the Earth so really, you are on our land. But, you have a right to be here until Satan's lease runs out.

Whoever said "when non-believers leave us alone" is so full of crap its sad!
Atheist are the largest group to suffer from religious discrimination in the United States. And it is Religious Discrimination. It is the same as calling Jews anti-Semitic remarks.
As an Atheist, I keep my opinions that religious zealots that try to save souls and win favor in the of some god they have never seen are wasting their preciously short life on fool's errands to myself. I don't want to make them feel bad. Imagine spending so much time on something, denying oneself in pursuit of something special and never even knowing no such thing has ever existed except in the minds of those scheming to control the masses. That would be devastating. That's why I don't say it to the poor fools. Their superiority is their security blanket.
So ignore them. At least we don't have to try to convert them out of their goose chase, we are free to do whatever we choose.

They walked in tandem, each of the ninety-two students filing into the already crowded auditorium. With rich maroon gowns flowing and the traditional caps, they looked almost as grown-up as they felt.
Dads swallowed hard behind broad smiles, and Moms freely brushed away tears.
This class would not pray during the commencements----not by choice, but because of a recent court ruling prohibiting it.
The principal and several students were careful to stay within the guidelines allowed by the ruling. They gave
inspirational and challen! ging spe eches, but no one mentioned divine guidance and no one asked for blessings on the graduates or their families.
The speeches were nice, but they were routine.....until the final speech received a standing ovation.
A solitary student walked proudly to the microphone. He stood still and silent for just a moment, and then, it happened.
All 92 students, every single one of them, suddenly SNEEZED!!!!
The student on stage simply looked at the audience and said, " GOD BLESS YOU, each and every one of you!" And he walked off stage...
The audience exploded into applause. The graduating class found a unique way to invoke God's blessing on their future with or without the court's approval.

They are not going to anytime soon, nor are "non believers" going to stop to stop saying their way is better. Very few people leave others alone about religion. What we all need to learn that belief or lack of belief in a deity is a path everyone must find out for themselves.

Try practicing what YOU are preaching in your comment/question. You are coming across as arrogant, rude and obnoxious. I have no interest in what your beliefs or lack of beliefs are...and I have no desire to tell you mine. I consider religion or the lack thereof to be a personal thing.
Personally, I'd like to see this category done away with as most people use it to stir up trouble and/or arguments.

cuz you aint done nothing to intervene on gods behalf,have you,he taught us laws of love and wisdom,and if yu honor that and cause others to honor that then you win the benefits of being good ,and i dont care if you beleive a story or not as long as yu beleive in doing good,so words blow out yur mouth it moves the thoughts and hearts of others so how is it that yu dont see the effects of that again?i choose those that do listen to the law and those that return to the law to change the wrongs and failures ,if yu dont listen then ur just siting bac and leting things go haywire,or yu can get up and help save each other like the messenger of god who did it cuz god called yu to do good for one another
