Study does not show lung damage from marijuana

[Berzerker]

Yes, but why is it persecution if God wanted to paint that bigger picture with the blood of the martyrs?

I wonder if Kidicious thinks God wanted Christians to obey the government in Nazi Germany? Going along with the Holocaust would have been the Christian thing to do in his mind?

[Kidlicious]

...

If you're asking can a govt be removed or punished, yes. God does a lot of that in the Bible. That's why we don't rebel. Only God can remove a govt.

So what you say is, that the settlers in the british colonies on american soil should have stayed quiet instead of rebelling against the british government and should have waited for god, to do the job for them

[C0ckney]

A lot of people think God gives them the political right to do things like take whatever drugs they wish. That's simply not true. None of these so called rights are given by God.

this is a ridiculous strawman and does nothing to answer the question.

On the contrary, God gives authority to governments to rule as they see fit. It's in the Bible.

please cite the chapter and verse.

I do find it amazing that the non religious people here are more informed about about it than those that profess faith. More proof that faith is just an excuse not to have to think.

[Kidlicious]

Cockney, what I've learned about people like you is that you don't really care about the particular verse (see my latest exchange with lori). Just read the Bible for yourself.

[Kidlicious]

Now that I remember, it was Cockney who blamed me for using one verse to claim what the Bible says. Isn't that right? Now you're asking for another Bible verse?

[C0ckney]

i have no idea what you are talking about, but i note your failure to provide textual support for your position which you claim is based on the bible.

i've read the bible (although admittedly not for a long time), unlike you it seems...

[Kidlicious]

Hebrews 11:1. You blamed me for using verses from the Bible. It's obvious you are just being an ass so I won't play your game.

[C0ckney]

please provide evidence for your accusation.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

please explain how this supports your argument here.

On the contrary, God gives authority to governments to rule as they see fit.

(this should be good)

Only God can remove a govt.

Elections seem to work quite well too.


& sex scandals, corruption, bribery, coups, invasions.... or are you saying they're all acts of gawd ?

[Kidlicious]

Heb is from the other thread where you were playing your stupid little game. It isn't txt support,as you've been reckognized as an ass who doesnt deserve it.

[C0ckney]

still have no idea what you're talking about, why don't you provide a link to back up your accusations. Jesus wasn't a fan of lies you know...

i'm please that you admit there's no textual support for your claim.

Even Jesus sat upon an ass and used it to ride to Jerusalem (John 12:14,15)
