Do you believe in life after death? [Spirituality & Religion]

@LadyGrace I think by "His Word" you mean the Bible, which is not a book, or even two books -- the fact is that it's a big messy scrapbook collection spanning many cultures and centuries, to which some people attribute magical powers. These same people often warn of the evils of idolatry and magical thinking, and willfully ignore that's precisely what they're doing with the Bible. Not all Christians even agree that the Word of God, "Logos," refers to the Bible.
Believe what you want, and I wish you well on your faithful path, but nothing in Christianity requires you to hold this dismissive attitude you expressed towards fellow humans with different beliefs, "nothing can be done for them."

@MissPriscillaPrim Oh please. Don’t get so bent out. If people don’t like ice cream, there’s nothing you can do for them. It’s just an expression. Don’t read too much into it. It wasn’t meant in a derogatory manner. I just meant to each their own. You’re the one who is clearly hateful, in your description of the Bible, and what you said is NOT a fact, just because you said so. However....if it offended you, I’ll rewrite it, as that was not my intention. ✌

@LadyGrace You mystify me. How can you read hate into my summary of historical facts concerning the human writings we call the Bible? I wished you well and still do; I'm glad you're now saying "to each their own," which is what I was trying to tell you... I fail to see how that means the same thing as "nothing can be done for them."

It was just a sloppy, no-thought, lazy response. I’m sorry if it offended you or anyone else. On the other about the Bible, we’ll just have to agree to disagree. Your description of God’s Word, which I treasure and find purely true, really does hurt my feelings. @MissPriscillaPrim

@LadyGrace While I'm sorry I hurt your feelings, we're both adults and both know the world is a big place... so I trust you'll soon recover, and the devotion for your Lord remains unharmed. I never meant to criticize that devotion, and I wasn't offended by your "sloppy" words about other people; I just call out such words as worse than useless, because our country's being overrun by self-righteous bigots (and I trust you're not one of them).

@MissPriscillaPrim No. Not at all. I love everyone. Whether they agree with me or not. 🤗

@LadyGrace The photo is not me, but represents a light of love in my heart for music and art, as I spell out at the top of my profile. I don't try to deceive anyone. That said, I recommend we part in peace, and you ask no further questions about me; what you'd discover would be of no use or help to you.

@MissPriscillaPrim (For the record, the first deleted message was LadyGrace asking about my photo, and the second one was her assenting peaceably. I suppose she then looked at my profile, and deleted these two comments.)

@MissPriscillaPrim For the record...you have totally assumed wrong. In the first deleted message, I had looked at your profile as I could not make out the avatar, so then asked about it. Then you recommended we PART in peace (didn’t know we were at war) and that I [u]don’t ask anymore questions[/u] and gave the reasons why. What was I supposed to think! You shut that door. Not me. I erased my attempt to be friends since that’s the way you wanted it.

@LadyGrace No, we weren't at war. Peace be with you. I didn't mean to shut the door on a friendly parting. I just acknowledged it would help neither of us to bring up the differences in our personalities.
