You are just not getting it, and you are wrong. I will list a fact for you.

Fact: The Bible has been misinterpreted for centuries regarding our planet. I have already listed the verses in my previous reply here. That was my entire point in bringing up that point in history.

Isaiah 55:8-9 states, "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways."
Proverbs 3:5 encourages us to "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."
In Job 38:2-4 God asks Job where he was when the foundations of the earth were laid, highlighting human ignorance.

Nothing incoherent about that at all. And I listed these 3 verses to remind you how little you know. How little we all know. You're telling me I'm incoherent and that I just don't understand, thus implying that you know more than I do. You don't, and that is another fact.


The passages you cited were never intended to be scientific textbooks. We still say "the sun rose" and "the sun set" today even though we know the Earth rotates. That's ordinary observational language, not a scientific claim. Likewise, Psalm 93 is a poetic psalm about God's sovereignty and the stability of creation, not a lesson in astrophysics.

The issue is that Christians eventually realized they had misread the genre and intent of those passages. But that doesn't mean every traditional interpretation is therefore suspect. To argue that biblical teachings on sexuality might be wrong because some Christians misunderstood astronomy is a non sequitur.

Fact: You thought you had a good point.

I became a born again Christian at 9 years old. My soul is saved. I am at peace with God and I know He loves and accepts me as a gay man, and there is nothing you can say or do to take that peace away from me.

Your pride is thinking you have the correct interpretation, and your petty insults are boring and juvenile.

Mark 8:33 and Matthew 16:23


"I feel at peace, therefore I am right, history and His Church don't matter."
you are suffering prelest. in humility, seek His Church and talk to a priest. I pointed out all of your logical and theological fallacies and instead of addressing these flaws you appeal to victimhood and personal feelings, there is nothing further I can do.

I suppose you thought you had a good point when you called someone the R word?

P.S. You need to review your understanding of what a non sequitur is.

Sure, tell yourself whatever you need to to keep your boat afloat.

There never was anything you could do to start with. You established that with your very first post which was nothing more than a petty, ego-filled attempt at an insult. Attempting to have a civil discussion with you would be a waste of my time because the likes of you cannot be reasoned with. I learned that a long time ago with my brother. I am willing to have a civil discussion with you, but only if you first apologize for that first post and then demonstrate some humility yourself. Until then, I will no longer waste my time with you.

i will never apologize for stating an objective ecclesiological fact. the Church does not conform to your personal feelings, nor does it owe an apology to heresy and it is actually its duty to call out anathema as it does regularly within divine liturgy.

you are still desperately hiding behind your childhood family drama because you are utterly incapable of answering for your theological errors, your historical ignorance, or your fake quotes.

God loves gays to consider otherwise simply means you completely missed out on what it is to be Christian and are overly convinced a book that is no more real than Harry Potter is some absolute guide to how you should act.

Really is pretty fucking dumb to be honest.

God loves all of mankind, that does not mean he supports all actions and all actions are edifying or bring you in communion with Him.

when you say the "a book" is "no more real than Harry Potter" are you implying that denying Holy Tradition and mocking the faith is included in what it means to be Christian?

Without religion you can be gay or whatever you like. No more translational debates or adherence to nonsensical rules from an imaginary dictator.

Just apply common sense and stick to man made rules. As long as its mutual and doesn't infringe on other people's liberties you can do whatever you like.

Christians are a cult that tries to tell others how to live their lives and don't pay taxes. I certainly wouldn't entertain anything the bible instructs, also I would wager many of christians are closet gays

As average intelligence has increased over time in the West we're seeing it die out. Meanwhile in places like Sub-Saharan Africa it's growing significantly since they are likely just in recent times finally getting some basic litteracy.

i will never apologize


Yeah, I know. You’re too arrogant.

I have no idea what you just said.

You have an entire thread dedicated to addressing whether God exists or not. This thread is not about that.
