Originally posted by Phoenix I'm not envisioning a concerted effort to piss you off. Just randomly and without warning, whenever the urge strikes him, Lanny should ban whatever account you're using. That kind of thing. If you're getting banned for fun whenever the mood strikes I don't think the folks banning you will really tire of doing it. You could go 3 months or two days on a new account before getting banned for no reason. That kind of thing.
Which is exactly what you did to people on Zoklet who you didn't agree with. Pretty cowardly, IMO. And that's exactly why you no longer have a platform for it today. I made sure of that, just as I promised you way back then would become the case. No little buttons to push and hide behind now, eh? -

2017-05-16 at 6:50 AM UTC in why is satan so mean?Remember that Satan once took Jesus up to a very high mountain, where he could see all the luxurious kingdoms spread out across the face of the land, and he then offered him the whole of it until his appointed time limit was up, if he would just bow down and do one act of worship. He could do this because he actually does own and rule this entire planet, as long as his time is not yet up. He is actually authorized by God right now to be in possession of the entire Earth and everything in it. So, when bad things happen, it is Satan who caused those things to happen, as he is the one legally in control of everything that happens on our planet right now. If you want to get a bird's-eye view of the situation I am referring to here, read the Book of Job. It is an easy read, and it contains all the relevant information. It describes in depth how and why Satan is challenging God's charges against him.

2017-05-16 at 6:30 AM UTC in why is satan so mean?One other thing I think is important to know is that God's will was always that humans exist on a paradise earth forever and never die, never feel pain again, and never want for anything. That plan has not been changed, merely delayed by Satan. At the completion of Satan's appointed time, all the dead who should not have died will be brought back to life just as they were, and even better than they were. They will not even know they had died, and they won't remember anything of their death. But it will be the exact same persons that died come back. And God's plan for humans will continue unabated. So when one of your loved ones has died, that in no way means you cannot see them again, right here on Earth. If you make it, and they make it as well, you will then live forever together.

Originally posted by DocFoster A simple a swer is lucifer, the angel of light, thought too highly of hinself. He was vain, and thought himself the most beautiful being in existence. He was beautiful, and very smart, but in challenging God and his wisdom, he was removed from his station, and took residence elsewhere.
All things do as God created them though, Satan included. He yet performs his duty as angel of light, and still true to tempt the foolish mortals, for his own vanity and to prove his power
In the end though God will save more then Satan will claim and Satan will fail again.
He must have, at least at some point, thought he had at least a chance of winning, but now he knows it will never happen, and so he has gone insane. Even more insane than he already was. -

Originally posted by Phoenix Well I mean… if it's not a problem for you then being banned won't even annoy you right?
Well, it would be an inconvenience, but that's about it. It wouldn't stop me at all, though. Most people in the Totse culture are already aware of this. I'm very ingenious in getting around things and fucking people over who tried to fuck me over. I'm relentless, patient as a saint, and impossible to shut up. If you'd rather not call those qualities, you won't hurt my feelings. -

2017-05-16 at 5:45 AM UTC in LannyWouldn't it just be easier for you to listen to my arguments than waste your time trying to shut me up? "Rob me of my identity"? hah. Really? People know it's me as soon as I post. I have posted under hundreds of different accounts and not bothered to identify myself, and people knew it was me almost right away, by the style of the arguments I was making. You see, you can't rob me of my identity. So why even waste your time and effort trying to bury my opinions of you?

Originally posted by aldra that's just pure masturbation
I may have used the term "voluntary gratitude" loosely. What I should have said instead was that he wants to share what he has to offer with creation, but not have it be a mandatory situation, where the creation has no choice but to obey. This provides him pleasure when the creation willing subjugates themselves to his guidance and direction, while the creation gains personal satisfaction and prosperity from the relationship as well. A mutual companionship to the benefit of both parties. Humans are the apex of his creation, and what makes us so special is we, each of us, have the power and choice of free will. No machine has that. Every machine is carefully programmed to carry out predetermined functions. Not so with the human creation. Each human carries in his, or her, own hands their own destiny, which is something unique to all of his other creations. We are created in his image, in that we each also have the choice and the power available to us to decide what our future will be, just as he has the freedom and the power to decide what his future will be. -
2017-05-16 at 5:24 AM UTC in why is satan so mean?None of us can approach or even talk to the Grand Judge directly, as we are already condemned persons, belonging to the offspring of Adam, a confessed criminal who has already received full judgement and sentence for his wicked acts. But Jesus had an idea. If the scales of justice MUST balance with God, and since Adam was a perfect man who sinned, then the only way to balance the scale back to even, allowing us all another chance to make direct contact with God, is if a perfect man were to NOT sin. The sinless man would cancel out the sinful man, thus enabling us all to make claim to Adam's initial inheritance in his heavenly court of justice. So Jesus freely volunteered and was recreated into a human and came to Earth to cancel Adam's sin in God's court of law and justice.

Originally posted by aldra what I mean is that if what you're saying is true, God's more or less just programmed us and thrown us into the ring to bounce off of each other and the walls.
given that everything we have and everything we ever do is a product of his design, why would he need to create structures like armies and governments? seems like building a robot, then trying to program its to go back in its box instead of just putting it away when you're done out of some retarded moral gymnastics.
It all hinges on the concept of free will. If he forced, or designed, his creations to obey no matter what, they would only be robots, and not true individuals with choices available to them. His enjoyment comes from the voluntary gratitude humans display when they develop a healthy relationship with him, and so there must be systems designed to manage such input and occurrence. -

Originally posted by Dargo And mercy. He's not just about justice or we'd all be fucked.
Well, that's an interesting comment. And it's true that he does have mercy, but that is not his motivating or defining principle. Rather, he operates on the principle of justice. An evening of the scales. If so much is on the left, then so much needs to be on the right. So when he destroys someone, it is not because he is without mercy, it is because he will always balance the scale of justice in each and every instance. You could almost say he has "no choice" but to balance the scales of justice. Each of us earns our own weight on his scales, and he simply pays each one their own due. -
2017-05-16 at 4:57 AM UTC in LannyHilarious. You people keep thinking you can do the same things over and over again and expect a different result. Won't happen!

Originally posted by aldra doesn't that seam rather redundant when he directly created both?
All things he created for his own pleasure. What he takes is his to take, and what he gives is his to give. Not a single one of us comes into this world with a single thing but our own skin, and not a single one of us can leave with anything more.
