The above thread, you will see that wiseone interjects a very bold challenge and statement to me, about his supposed knowledge and ability to debate Biblical Scripture. He assures me that he is fully capable of such debate, and has debated many scholars. Having been reassured that he was up for the task, as well as 'warned' by wiseone to avoid such a debate with him, I accepted his challenge with confidence. He has yet to actually begin debating me about Biblical Scriptures and what they actually say. He hasn't even posted a single verse from the Bible. So far, I have been entertained by his "LOLs" and chortling like a school girl, and his opinion of what he believes is in the Bible. I have either explained, or completely debunked everything he believes is in the Bible. I am still waiting to begin our debate on Biblical Scriptures.
I am very disappointed here. As many of you are aware, I am a Spiritualist, and not a Christian. Many members of my personal family are Christians, and Baptist Christians, even Southern Baptist Christians. I am not a Christian. I am a believer in Spiritualism. I think Christians misunderstand the meaning of Christ Jesus, and that he is not actually the living Son of God. It is a symbolic title, to convey an utter importance to his spoken word and teachings, his personal philosophy. While that is great and wonderful, I do not believe he was the product of an immaculate conception and born of a human through the seed of God. I just don't accept that to be true, therefore, I am not a Christian. It doesn't mean that I don't have huge respect for what the Bible teaches, and what Christianity teaches. I believe there is great humanitarian advantage to all mankind, to live by the teachings found in the Bible.
My mother's twin brother, is an ordained Southern Baptist minister, with a pH D in Theology from the largest Baptist seminary in the South, he is 73, and has been a minister for 55 years. I have had long lengthy and extensive discussions with him, on the Bible, and Christianity in general. Me not being a Christian, but a Spiritualist, has certainly created some interesting conversations around the dinner table, but I have learned a great deal about the Christian faith and Baptist teachings. So I feel pretty confident with my skill level and training to debate what the Bible says, if that is the argument we are going to have.
I had Bible.com pulled up and everything! I even had my funny Pope hat on, ready to get down to some serious theological discussion with wiseone, but he let me down! All I got was more incessant ranting and crazy ideas about what he believes is in the Bible. I don't get to wear my funny Pope hat too often, and I was so looking forward to a meaty debate with someone who knew what they were talking about. To learn that I had been spoofed into a foolish debacle of failed arguments and untrue rhetoric, just really disappointed me.
