Is "Catching the Holy Ghost" just attention whoring?

[the cac mamba]

Just like we can 'measure dreams' right/


Let's see you quote your own comprehensive philosophy on life and the universe's formation. it's easy to throw your little stones but let's see if your beliefs hold under equal scrutiny.

isnt it better to admit that our creation is still beyond our comprehension, as opposed to picking out a certain fable from a thousand and proclaiming it's true

all that jesus dikkriding in your sig wouldnt even be there if you had been born into a different culture

We have more demonstrable ways of measuring dreams than dumbasses talking about "seeing auras" in the mirror.

keep playing though.

Oh...and its DEFINITELY easier to throw stones. I'm not out here making ridiculous statements then running when asked to support my own view on life.

I forget that you're a christian too...you've got bigger intellectual challenges

Gotta love when religious people quote their little book as if I can't quote some bullshyt out of it too. Gotta love that selective reading.

If you say god imparts this to individuals, we should be able to measure it...right?

Well you did ask me how can I claim to know what my God is thinking. Of course it's gonna come from the scriptures that define the faith I follow. I'm not asking to you to believe the same thing as me, but I hope you do come to a knowledge of Jesus the Christ before the end of your days.

Yes I agree that if someone says out loud that God told them something specific, then that thing better come to pass or else I see them as a liar or misrepresenting God. If it's measurable, I have no problem with it being measured. The whole point of prophecy in the bible is meant to measure God's words to see if they are indeed trustworthy. This made the Book of Daniel when I understood it's context in history.

how can one 'measure' what's God, when you aren't even of God?

how can a mere man measure God

so that means we can go into all the other parts of the bible you ignore, right?

I'm not asking to you to believe the same thing as me, but I hope you do come to a knowledge of Jesus the Christ before the end of your days.

What a passive aggressive way of doing precisely what you claim you don't want me to do...

Yes I agree that if someone says out loud that God told them something specific, then that thing better come to pass or else I see them as a liar or misrepresenting God.

You know, god didn't write the bible, right?

If it's measurable, I have no problem with it being measured.

If your god has an impact in the physical world, then it can be measured. Its a pretty simple axiom you should have no problem with.

So I ask you. If god is DOING something physically, we should be able to observe or at least indirectly measure it or its effects.

The whole point of prophecy in the bible is meant to measure God's words to see if they are indeed trustworthy.

Oh yeah? How's that going.

This made the Book of Daniel when I understood it's context in history.X

Lets talk about all the other books of the bible that get left out depending on which version of christianity you follow:

how can a mere man measure God

The premise is this.

You claim god is "supernatural" (whatever that means), but affects the natural world...so as such, we should be able to AT LEAST measure his effects or presence in engaging in such behavior.

I remember when I was a youngin', I went to my favorite cousin's church with him and his mom.

And she caught the holy ghost.
My favorite cousin caught the holy ghost.

So I was like, I might as well act like I caught the holy ghost.

My aunt booty bumped me in my eye so damn hard.

I went and say my ass back down.

Identifying that some unexplainable physical phenomenon actually took place is one thing. That can be measured. I'm sure you are more concerned with someone being able to prove that God was the actual source of such a thing. I don't know if anyone could possibly convince you of such a thing.

...ok. and you claim your god is responsible for this.

I'm sure you are more concerned with someone being able to prove that God was the actual source of such a thing.

isn't that what you just said?

If you're going to trot around saying what god did or did not do, then we can evaluate whether or not what you're saying has any stock to it.

If its not proven, it doesn't mean you're wrong, merely that what you're saying isn't ultimately supported.

I don't know if anyone could possibly convince you of such a thing.

I'm not looking to be convinced. I'm looking for it to be convincing.

If you present a statement like that, don't act like you're above the fray by evading being responsible for what you're tossing out there.
