Brothers and sisters whom read what I share, I sit here at the top of the stairs, alone in this level, save it for the still small voice of the holy spirit near, to once again testify. I read the quote as if hearing the sound of my own grandfather. Whom, ironically enough, was an English teacher in Burbank, California, during his formative years. I pray those reading such, would hear these words in their own heart as if kindly spoken by their own grandfather.
And if you've not a grandfather of your own to hear, this man has been kind enough to lend his credit to the role as all is well.

@Eoppa @Draško, I've got some questions on your interpretations of saints. Namely, how exactly do you, venerate them?
From an outsiders approach, it's often claimed, Catholics especially, worship saints as if they are deities.
I personally, do not think such is true, yet, again, with much reverence on this Sainted day, I would like some detailed clarification, please and thank you.
Saints don't exist.
we just dont worship them
we believe they are deified in Christ, however they dont actually have powers themselves. i usually just ask them to pray for us
Christians gay
Saints of Christianity are a bastardized version of order masters
these niggas...
I mean the bible is about as credible as a comic book lol
is christianity against abortion??
Yes
ok good
Abortions should be allowed as long as it's within the first 3 weeks of your pregnancy
Please don't
@moira how is religion harmful?
An ungrounded system of belief or the metaphysical unjustified belief in the supernatural as a justification for the physical world
Alright, how would you feel if i were to define science as "satanic worship of Lucifer and his demons"?
You cannot define our ideas in reference to your evaluation of our ideas
I wouldn't care because the only people who would aren't worth listening to
The example is to illustrate that you can't define our terms for us
*Unjustified Belief*
The definition you provided was evidently formulated by an atheist, or an anti theist
Im assuming you believe the universe just popped in existence
lol
I doubt a single theologian, or just religious person, would agree with that silly definition
god did the /summon command to create the universe
The universe just decided to exist one day
*pop*
Okay, so you're going to say "you don't *really* know what we're saying"
It's a big Dodge, but in the context of a religious person (Christian in this case) those are bad. I can ask you to elaborate on what all those words really mean or we can look at the Christian assumption if there's actually more nuance
How the hell is correcting your strawmanie flawed definition a dodge?
Its the opposite of a dodge, it would've been a dodge if i didn't address the definition
You asked me to describe religion
