that is very true. u remind me of a philosifer.i know im not the most inteligent when it comes to those huge words. but i get the jist of what u are saying. when it comes to what church anybody goes to i dont think it matters. as long as thier in the word thier self, and looking for what god wants. thats what i think their can be churches out thier that preach from the bible and then ad some stuff u know what im saying?

"Simple answers" are not always appropriate. Questions are often loaded with baggage."Going to church" is not the same as "being part of/in any church" worth embracing. Think about it.

One thing you'll learn in your growth in God, is that you'll know less and less about God the further and further you grow. So, your beliefs will evolve into something different than what they are now.I have read Bible contents from cover to cover in several versions. Have you?I have noticed that you don't answer any of my questions either. Kinda like dodge ball.I'm not putting up walls, but rather I play the game as it is served to me. I've been down this road before. (to be cont.)

lolyou put it out thier pretty well. i do understand.lol im starting to think of our conversations as a fun game. some times i look forward to what u have to say. so u do believe in god it is just different from what the bible says? and u still pray and stuff. thats awsome. i did make a judgment that u tottally stoped believing and were putting up walls to peoples opinions. anyways do you still attend church and stuff like that?

More than once, I've said that Bible contents provide NO enlightenment -- none, nada, nunca, zero -- about homosexuality let alone being Gay and/or Lesbian. What part of that do you not understand, and/or are willing to prove otherwise without forcing slanted translations and interpretation upon any of the texts?

All of that should seem very plain and simple to he/she who would come in asking questions of theology and, seemingly, presenting himself/herself as having arrived at authority to cast judgments.

2. That to which I have submitted and from which I seek guidance may (or may not) be that to which you claim to have and do. Nevertheless, I (like you do for yourself) choose that which I judge to be worthy my embrace, and it might (or might not) be fitting of the description "holy."3. God and I get along very well. God is always welcome in my presence.

1. All that is (and is not) true about Bible contents I've avidly and continually pursued for decades. My resulting beliefs may not be the same as yours. So what?(to be continued)

Your vision of a "wise man" doesn't suit my vision of one. Your judgmentalism continues to roll. It would be one thing if you judged my statement, but you've done something else (not that I care, for I'm simply playing along.).1. Your first question is incomplete, short on integrity.2. Your second question is esoteric.3. Your third question is quite vague and very slanted.(to be continued)
