Holy crap- I can't believe he would write that.
What every happened to the all loving, all forgiving God????

Sorry Tuberoot you are wrong.
John 3:16
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
Unlike many Christians God does not limit his love and grace to just a few.
God loves the world, not just the ones who follow him.

It IS nonsense. If there was a God, why did he allow us to be born if he only wants supplicants who will lie face down on the dirt and worship and praise him? If he was real, and had any power, he could just kill all the non-religious and get it over with. Why the stupid games?
It's ridiculous to imagine god gets angry at those who "don't want to know god." If a god exists, why doesn't he just wipe them off the face of the earth and keep his fawning, maudlin favourites?

This ALL loving and ALL forgiving God does not exist except for those who trust Him.
ALSO, we are not ALL God's children. That is a lie. God's children are those who trust God, not those who hate Him.
If there was anything Biblical here said tonight, it's this:
14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? Certainly not! 15 For He says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion.” 16 So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy.
17 For the Scripture says to the Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declared in all the earth.” 18 Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He hardens.
( Romans 9 )
God has all rights over all people here. It was never revoked and it will never be revoked. God simply raises some up for His compassion, and others up for His wrath.
How much more grateful should we be if we find ourselves trusting God?

Tuberoot has a pretty wacked out idea of religion.

Last week he said he was a "bisexual Christian"
If you are interested in knowing about God, read the Bible.

Adding a question mark to something doesn't actually make it a question automatically.

That god sure can spin on a dime, no?
He's faster than a no-fault divorce.

everyone writes things down now and then.
God is closer than you think.
Taking notes, no doubt.
