I would say, " hi there, sexy."
It would go something like this: " Jesus, I'm dissapointed in your negligence for the human race. Where have you been all this time? Why, if There is "one true religion" allow so many other religions to hold sway over peoples lifes, leading them astray, condeming their eternal soul. How do you expect people to know which religion is the right one? Furthermore, why not abolish religion altogether? It has created so many wars, so many unhealthy and damaging disputes."
I don't spend much time in the religious areas of literature network.

Then I'd ask him if he was sad, disappointed or angry that people call him a god, and worship him, when he's really the prophet of God.
People are afraid of the twilight
I would perhaps say something to the effect of "Let's get a beer"
and then when drunk we would probably end up in a heated debate over the Nature of god.
You should see what a mockery they have made out of you.
I don't understand why though.Quote:

It's all about getting into heaven so why not get some specifics? I just can't imagine any place that I could spend infinity in. After a trillion years or so, I think I'd be getting pretty bored. So I'd want to know what time is like in heaven.

That reminds me of when I was younger, I think late elementary or something like that. I had a huge crush on Ted Neeley who played Jesus in Jesus Christ Superstar and I had a poster of him in my room and my brother was soooo offended that I thought Jesus was cute. :lol: :lol: I tried to point out I didn't think Jesus was cute, I thought the actor was cute but he was still offended. :rolleyes:Quote:

i think i would ask what he thought about having been re-created as a godling, and having been used countless times to justify murder and torture.

Is this thread just a way to express hostility toward religion? I thought we were suppose to respect religions on lit net.
That's a good point. I have never experienced 'forever.' The closest I know is only a medium amount of time, but something that I have experienced that gets better over time (love), if it follows the same trend always, will be good forever.
What would I say to Jesus? Probably just something simple like, "It's good to see you."

It is true that the topics here are supposed to relate to 'Religious Texts'. It seems like most of the threads end up in creator vs. no creator discussions. And, because this would seem to be the single most important question a being can ask it naturally becomes a little heated. I think sometimes we think that one party who disagrees strongly with our ideas is being disrespectful. I'd wager that the other party feels the same. It seems like most of us are trying to convince ourselves that we understand the nature of the universe more than the next person.
A while back you told me I was being hostile to others. I took that to heart, apologized, and refrained from posting for several months. This time I'm not sure it is I you are referring to in your post. If it is, let me know and I'll hibernate again.
Cheers,
Doug
No actually I was referring to that cornboy guy. Thanks for your consideration. I don't remember the incident, but I'm glad it has mproved you. I've been know to occaisionally lose my temper and be hostile. I need to learn from you. Please do not hibernate. You're a good guy. :)Quote:

Some are really serious and dont want to waste their life running after their body requests, but want to "live really" and they are FEW.
Such thread we must take it more seriously, it shows your view of life and who are you really not what is Jesus peace be upon him really.
Since this thread is not addressing the OP anymore, it will now be closed.
