Shirley this has been posted here already, but I can't find it. Why don't our theological disputes ever end with a good throttling?

Is it just me, or did she definitely make up what she was watching? My guess is "Desperate Housewives."

"The devil made him do it." Words from about every abused wife.

I thought a chord of three strands was not easily broken.

Oh well, don't christians have higher divorce rates as well?

...Watson had gone upstairs in an attempt to get away from the argument after their “religious discussion” about the film became heated.

There is an argument i would of loved to see, two xtians attacking each other about if jesus got 14 or 15 lashes.

Quote:

Watson told the police that everything his wife said about him must be true because she never lied.

Nope they never lie, except to themselves.

What do you suppose would happen if one of their kids said, "I don't believe in god, so I'm not going to be going to church today."

That is what I said to my mom one Sunday morning when I was 12.

Yet when I said that, they still forced me to go even though I'm supposed to have the free will to believe or not. Where's the free will?

What do you mean "where's the free will," God gave you a complete simple and fair choice and that's worship him or burn in hell forever. Free will is right in front of you but you atheists have a heart of stone and can't even see reality :rolleyes:

Yeah, same result here.

It's an even worse idea at 8 years old. Parents don't like to hear questions like "but how did all the animals survive after the ark if there were only two of every kind?", but it's worse than that at 18, when you are capable of giving undeniable reasons not to believe.

I think there's some sort of understanding that young kids have no free will and thus need to be forced to believe, and that if yours ever questions the idea, you've somehow failed as a parent.

God gives us free will, but parents do not!

Sad story, by the way. Sad that religious fundamentalism can drive one to spousal abuse! :(

Yeah, blame Satan for his anger! :rolleyes:

Yeah, and if Satan could make people do things, I think he'd be doing more than causing disputes in the household. Wouldn't he be ruling countries by making the leaders do things and what not?

The court was told that the couple, both devout Christians, celebrated his birthday with dinner and a bottle of wine before sitting down to watch The Passion of the Christ.

This is your problem, right here. IT'S HIS BIRTHDAY!!! Give him a beer, a blowjob, and a steak for crying out loud. SHIT! I would cringe every fucking year on the day before my birthday if I knew that was what was waiting for me when I got home.

By the way, now that I think about it, today is the day before my birthday. I'm gonna go check the DVD player...

Screw the "Passion of the Nutjobs."

I prefer the Passion of the Benny Hill.
