I think students should decide themselves whether they want to learn about it or not.
It shouldn't be considered an "important subject" that students [b]have[b] to take.

No because knowing God is the most important thing you could learn in your life. You would not have life if it weren't for God

@Firechidist the most important thing is living your life, not living for an empty promise

@Firechidist Your god might be the most important thing in your life but we don't all need imaginary friends. Those of you who do have no right to force your delusions onto others, especially not children.

In any case, you're wrong. Everything was created by the Invisible Pink Unicorn, not your god.
Firechidist · 26-30, F
God is real and He loves you. Whether you believe or not. I know that is a fact. That is the truth. Call me crazy I don't care because I know the truth and encountered Him myself many times and His love. So take that as you will.

@Firechidist god is as real as alien abductions
Firechidist · 26-30, F
@MasterLee who are you trying to convince? because you are not going to convince me or change my mind. God is the Alpha and the Omega , The Beginning and the End. He is not going away whether you acknowledge Him or not. He is God all by Himself
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@Firechidist You've convinced me you're crazy. Both the Flying Spaghetti Monster and the Invisible Pink Unicorn are real, whether or not you believe it, but your god is just a figment of your imagination. I doubt anyone can convince you of the truth though.
Firechidist · 26-30, F
@suzie1960 Riiiight
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@MasterLee At least alien abductions have a non-zero probability so [b]could[/b] happen.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@Firechidist Yes the aliens probe is real
Firechidist · 26-30, F
Only the fool says in their heart there is no God.
Firechidist · 26-30, F
As for alien abductions you are not in a position to talk about their validity or not.
Sharon · F
@Firechidist Try taking your own advice. How do you know whether or not he's in a position to talk about the validity of alien abductions? You spout a load of BS about mythical beings.
Sharon · F
@Firechidist Only a completely deluded fool believes mythical creatures like "god" are real.
Firechidist · 26-30, F
You two are very ignorant and arrogant. What an arrogant and foolish thing to say there is no God when you have no proof. I pray you may repent and return to God before it is too late for you. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against those who suppress the truth about God by their wickedness.


Everyone has a conscience from God telling them what is wrong and right demonstrating Gods law is written in your heart. So you have no excuse. Everyone is guilty before God. For every man has fallen short of Gods glorious standard.


But God loved the world so much that he gave his most beloved Son that whoever will believe in him will not perish but have eternal life.


God is Holy Righteous and Merciful but he is also a God of Justice and truth. He will not let sin go unpunished and He will judge everyman for every deed whether good or bad. But if you put your faith in Jesus that is taken care of because Jesus carried all our sins on the cross. He took the punishment we deserved so we can be blameless before God and have a relationship with Him as he does. This is the gift and grace of God. You do not earn it.


But if you reject it that is your choice. In the end God cannot be mocked. You will reap what you sow.

@Sharon There are no limits to christian arrogance.
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@Firechidist Thank you for demonstrating what I've just said to Sharon - your arrogance is so typical of christians.

You say - [quote]What an arrogant and foolish thing to say there is no God when you have no proof. [/quote]

How arrogant and foolish you must be to claim your god exists when their is no objective proof. All you have are your delusions.

Do you belive in the Flying Spaghetti Monster and the Invisible Pink Unicorn? If not you prove yourself to be arrogant and foolish [b]by your own criterion[/b] as you have no proof they don't exist.
Firechidist · 26-30, F
@suzie1960 Goodbye and God bless. It is obvious you are not open to learning and hearing the truth instead you are only only interested in arguing and airing your opinion.
Sharon · F
@suzie1960 LOL!!
Firechidist · 26-30, F
In the end every knee will bow and confess Jesus Christ is Lord.
Sharon · F
@Firechidist You don't half come out with some crap.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@Firechidist Sad you are so indoctrinated.
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@Firechidist [quote]n the end every knee will bow and confess Jesus Christ is Lord.[/quote]

No we won't. I don't bow down to figments of peoples' imaginations.

You really are arrogant. Are you entering for the christian arrogance World Championships?
Firechidist · 26-30, F
@suzie1960 I'm not arrogant. Just telling the truth.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@Firechidist if you reject the donut you will suffer in all eternity in a vat of hot glaze. Is it really worth it?
