And it died with the rest of that church c. 70 CE at Massada.

Rhetorical on my part, for sure, as I've seen his comment back 
to me.  He'd do far better if Barney was his proofreader.  A 
bit truth and that sugar coating that Mikey claims to have 
has been washed away, like his personal version of the flood 
and his stance on a "Virgin Birth" for his godling.  

I used to think that he had a cognizant brain.  Probably only 
wishful thinking on my part, as his theology runs far too 
deep to allow him to use it in any constructive manner.   :\{

I read 2 articles in Groliers Encyclopedia. One agreed that up to 2/3.
However the majority of these pregnacies are terminated before the women
is aware she is pregnant. In most cases, something is terribly wrong.

Seems like your god would do far better in making sure that any

Try again, Andy.  You claim a benevolent god.  You tell me why 
my sisters had to go through the misery that they did to have 
the childeren that they now have.  They wanted childeren, yet 
you god not only denied them that fact, he allowed them to 
think that they were going to have them and took them away.  


AM> all the successful births to the blessing and goodness of God?  

DC> If you want to.  But, then, you will have to admit that your god 
DC> is the world's largest provider of abortions.  Either that, or that


AM> No Dan, the problem is with man who rejected God's plan for him.

IOW, you can't answer to the pain that my sisters experienced 
physically and emotionally that your "god" caused.  

Rejecting your god is a call to life.  Believing in him is wallowing 
in your death-cult.

(*WHILE ROLLING AROUND ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING*) I admit shamefully that I
did, indeed, ask for such a response.  My reader did not pick up the word
"debate" after "religous".  So, unawares, I "asked" for a fight and got
one. And, unfortunately, my reader also did not pick up your messg to me,
and I only had time to scan it while online.  I'll go back to it later.
But, in the meantime, let's chat. Tell me, are your angels notorious for
masturbating on church walls also?  I have heard of that being done, as
well as other most gruesomely blasphemous behavior, like the ones you mention.
Are you some sort of Pagan Occultist?  With a name like J.j. Hitt, I'd wonder.
The angels I speak of commit no more crime than that of wearing polyester
once in awhile, so I guess that makes 'em pretty boring compared to yours.
I'd love to hear more about them.  And I'm not sorry to report that your
attempt at shocking the crap out of me has failed miserably, Buck Wheat.

I'll pull a Hector on you.  Step off of a building and see wht happens.
do you fall to your death?  Sure you do.  So the designer was at fault,
making gravity a thing that can deal death.  Why can't he have designed
gravity to do the good that it does without having bad side effects.  Kids
fall off of high places every day and end up in emergency rooms.  Why didn't
your god think of that?

While I do not disagree with your appraisal of porn, you have to remember
that it is not something that is based on emotion.  It is something that
is based on the physical act alone.

It is my belief that the purpose of porn, as well as prostitution is not
gratifiaction of sexual desires as we know them, but to fulfill desires
of power over another human.  Many men are attracted to women and those
women thta are willing can act as s3ex objects for them.  Some are not so
picky and select the young and old for their fantasies which are actually
acts of physical violence.  Porn, in a way, is a stand in for the act of
domination and seeing another human subjected to what you might consider
a debasing act is actually why they view it.  It is their stand in for prostitution.
I do nto judge it's value.  There will always be those that are willing
to do this sort of thing.  I actually think that in this manner it helps
those who see a need to debase others from engaging in the act of rape.

I do not morally censure porn.  It is something tht I believe, serves a
purpose and while those involved in it are not compelled to do it, I have
no arguement with it.

This is just so much rhetoric.  God told Moses to avenge himself.  What
else did god mean?  God meant for the hebrews to out and kill their enemies.
God does then speak about the division of the booty.  He makes no mention
of what a terrible thing this was or why the hebrews should never gone out
and slaughtered those people.  He never tells them that Moses as misunderstood
him.

Your god gave orders to murder those people.  And his willing slaves wne
tout and did it.

Really.  You fundies will try anything, including believing the rest of
us to be stupid too.

HOW TO HANDLE FEAR

Read: Psalm 56

Whenever I am afraid, I will 
trust in You. -Psalm 56:3


Some years ago as I lay in a hospital bed, I overheard two women
talking in a waiting room outside my door.  Evidently the husband of
one of them was in critical condition.  She had been under extreme
stress and was greatly concerned about his recovery.  She said to
her friend, "you know, when you're as worried as I am, you just have
to smoke!"

That made me think about how people handle their fears.  Some turn
to alcohol, others turn to food, and some to busyness.  The psalmist
gave us a better solution to the problem of fear.  He said,
"Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You" (56:3).  It's tragic
when we turn to something other than the Lord to fill the void or
cover up the pain we're feeling.

If we have put our faith in God's Son, Jesus Christ, we can have
confidence that our heavenly Father sees us in our trials and has
promised His protection.  In times of distress, we can place our
trust in the Lord.  He wants us to call on Him so that He can
encourage us with His presence and give us His peace.

As you rest in the Lord and rely on Him today, you will be able to
say with the psalmist, "Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You."
-Richard W. De Haan


Nothing is hid from His all-seeing eye,
Never a teardrop nor even a sigh;
Anxious and troubled you never need be -
Trust Him completely and doubtings will flee. -Nienhuis

WHEN FEAR KNOCKS AT YOUR DOOR,
LET FAITH OPEN IT.

answer to his defense of Focus on the Family. I THOUGHT I had caught all
the grunging and deletions that the combination of my editor and the board
I use had done, but if the disclaimer is not there, then I must have
missed some.

If you have a web browser, set it to search for Focus on the Family. This
piece came up in a site that is ANTI-FoF. Once the new computer comes back,
I'll look and see if I can find the URL for you. The piece had a disclaimer
on it that said it could be used and distributed if the proper attribution
was used. I left it on so if you didn't see it then something happened
between here and there.

Typical for this computer. Well, it will be dead for 3 days but when
resurrected will be a miracle of technology.

I know 'Inside Edition' is not exactly the most reliable production around,
but even THEY did a debunking on that. They interviewed the man who was
supposed to have dated it to 1947. He stated very clearly that the film
STOCK could have been manufactured anywhere between 1942 and 1957. But that
was the only thing he was asked to do. It said nothing about WHEN the film
was used. (And it is possible that whoever is responsible for the 'autopsy'
found unused old film stock.)

The other thing 'IE' showed were some stills...of the 'alien', a hand with
a makeup pallette in it and another hand with brushes. They also has an
FX
person show exactly how some of the things could have been done.

Semi. We lost touch when Ad was no longer able to control the muscles in
his arms and was unable to write. This was before he got his computer. Even
with the computer, he could control his fingers but his arms had to be
braced into position. I guess, being so far away, and Ad beating the odds
for so long, we just allowed ourselves to not remember that Muscular
Dystrophy IS a killer.

I would love to get hold of Ad's photographs and see if I couldn't get
them published. When he was still able to hold a camera, he did some of
the most amazing candid work you would ever want to see. He worked in
black and white and can only be compared to Ansel Adams' early work. We
have 2 he took of my youngest son, and they are gallery quality. But he
never saw them that way.

Yeah. Even though we haven't been close in a while, Ad will be missed.

what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who,

Amazing, isn't it?  If the nation's police force were our rapeing children
in epidemic qualities like the Christian church's leaders do, the populace
_would_ be up in arms and demanding that the police agencies be cleaned-up
or closed until the problem is solved.

On "Sins of the Fathers" I saw some Catholic priests suggest that Christianity
be closed down until the problem is fixed.  _Some_ Christians are at least
willing to admit that they have a serious -- fatal, even -- problem.

Actually, Jim, any hate group you can point to which hates blacks and gays

Hatred and bigotry is nearly the venue of the deity religious.

But then you know that.  You're part of the Christanic death cult.

"And if there is anything which could demonstrate that we

a Christian I have also a duty to my own people. And when I look
on my people I see them work and work and toil and labor, and at

The #holysmoke channel on Internet's Undernet servers is much
like what we see here on HolySmoke yet real time.  The claims
that fundies make and the arguments they use to try to defend
them are exactly the same as we see here.

Here we follow a "Pagan priest" calling himself "praytor" who
claims there's evidence for a "global flood."  Notice the "English
Major-like" background claim to start off the, um, debate.  I'm
"Thomas" as in "doubting Thomas."

Here we have evidence that ignorance of geology and "global
flood" beliefs isn't entirely a Christanic superstition:

-=-

 Thomas: My back ground is years as a geologist/Theol
ogian/historian what do you want here on this channel a lesson?

 Thomas: exactly what more do you desire? You said
you wanted proof of the global flood. I told you wher to
find it. Now be a good little it and go read

> pray: You claimed you had extensive geological knowledge.
Prove it.  Give me the name of a geological formation and
its location which supports your ignorance.  DO IT NOW!

 Thomas: never admitted nor was I asked if I was a
Christian, I'm not I'm a pagan priest. I just believe in
the global flood and that it did happen.

[...cuts... I elected to try another port and then sneak back.]

> pray: Star Goat will get you for lying to his chosen.

 Thomas: Oh Great and mighty know it all just what
religion are you?

> pray: I'm in a religion which doesn't lie about its
acedemic achievements to try to lie his way out of an
undefendable belief.

 Thomas: to embarressed to name your religion or did
I guess it

> pray: Didn't you LISTEN you ignorant fool?!  The Restored
Church of the Star Goat is the ONLY TRUE religion which
originally was planetd on Earth and govomership was handed
to His Chosen -- StarGoat is one of them.

> pray: Well?  I'm still waiting.  Where's this evidence for
a "global flood" you lied about?

 Thomas: Star Goat is another name for Satan and to
worship satan one must worship christ. Nes Pa

[Certainly sounds like a Christian fundy, huh?]

> pray: You're truely ignorant, fool.  "Satan" is a Christian
god.  Star Goat is the CREATOR God who made you.  Your
blasphemy is to try to make Him a Christian God.  That's
evil.

> pray: WHERE DID THE WATER COME FROM YOU LIAR?

 Thomas: Dont really know where does the wind come
from. Where does the Earth come from? Where does life come
from? My what questions.

> pray: Where does the wind come from?!  AMAZING!!!  Well,
geological acedemic, DO YOU KNOW WHAT UNEVEN HEATING OF THE
EARTH'S SURFACE DOES?

> pray: Well?  Answer up, fool!  Just because YOU are
ignorant of something doesn't mean everyone else had better
be.  We KNOW where wind comes from.  We know about the
formation of the Earth.  We have good ideas about the
formation and evolution of life.

 Thomas: what wrong so flusterd you dont recognize
tongue in cheek answers. I alwasys give those type of
answeres to children

> pray: Oh, now your lies are "toung in cheek answers."  Lovely.

[Kind of like Michael Hardy's "just kidding" defense.]  }:-}

> pray: You're a liar.  Name these gological formations and
give their locations, liar.

 Thomas: The Trinity Basin, The Edwards Plateu, The
Contenital Divide to mane some. Recenly in the Ozarks a
sharks entire body was found in granite.

> pray: Provide evidence for a global flood, fool, not
evidence of plate tectonic and continental uplift!

 Thomas: Try drilling an oil well some time and you
will learn a buch

[Interesting.  I wonder if Marty's a Creationist now.]

 Thomas: you are the dictionalries dicription of
ignorance. Look here according to Roget Ignore'ance: see
Thomas on #Holysmokes

[Getting close...  the personal attacks are starting.  He's
gonna pop.]

> pray: You claimed there is evidence for a global flood.
You presented evidence for plate tectonics and continental
uplift.  I'm still waiting for your evidence you claimed to
have.

> pray: Come on, let's go.  You made the claim, you provide
the evidence.  Let's go.

 RevDave: ME try Thomas he's the one that refuses to
take a walk to see the evidence of sharks teeth and fish
bones in the earth that do not come from earth upheavls

> pray: That's proof of plate tectonics and contimental
uplift.  Ever hear of those you "geologist?"

> pray: Well? Ever hear of those in your geology classes?

 Thomas: ever walked out side and seen the bones in
the earth. Oh I'm sorry your face is stuck in a puter and
your afraid to go outside

> pray: That's called fossilization, silly.  I'm still
waiting for your evidence for a "global flood."

dr> If there was such evidence, then why

Ignorance of scientific method is why so many people don't accept the directly
observable fact of evolution.  Many Christanic cultists demand that "no
one knows what makes the wind blow" and then they fall silent when uneven
heating of the Earth's surface is described.

One no more "believes" in evolution than one "believes" in gravity.  Both
are undeniable, directly observed facts.  That some cultists believe that
science detracts from their superstitions is why they can't
