casino_king SG

sometimes it is better to suck on a lolipop offered - better than to have to eat up your own vomit later and yet cry foul. Neutral

casino_king SG

You think the lolipop is free? Think again my friend. I know it is difficult for you to give up your superstitions, I have dealt with to many gamblers not to know that...

klydeer SG

if it is the same loli we talking about - to me, it is free and much more beyond. No, it is not difficult for me to give up my so called "superstition" - it is difficult for me, rather to follow through it all but the controversy is that i want to. Can understand this concept ? If not, try not to assume too much about something you have zero knowledge about.

sorry, i dont gamble. but an addiction to gambling does not equate to our willingness to follow Christ.

2 questions from me too.

1. Have you yourself been an addict to gambling ?
2. Do you know who is God ?

If both answers are yes. Then share your stories. i think we had enough of your theories - but we didnt hear from you, your own applications of such theories - please share.

Icemoon SG

Look at that wink.

The most friendly reply to come from CK. Wink

Very Happy

It is the same loli but you think it is free ... it is like, frog in well have no idea.

Not necessarily a bad thing in the sense that if give you the freedom you end up gambler, drug addict and so on... like the minute the frog comes out of the well, he gets run over by a car.

It is sad in that you have only one life but you live it inside a superstitious prison. Like the frog in well.... it is a big world out there but he thinks it is better to stay in well in case he gets run over by a car.

About God, if I want to believe in a God, then God must be really big strong and friendly but have decided to leave us alone. That is why you do not see God around. That is why you have no evidence of God. The religions want to believe that God is personal and get invovled in their lives is just fantasy... an opiate to help them sleep better at night and moderate their behavior in the day.

Just challenge whatever God you believe in and say: "God I allow you, I give up my free will, if you do not want me to do this "sin" then stop me. If you do not stop me I take it that you actually do not mind and all this bullshit I hear from all the preachers are just nonsensical crap about you to control me."

You will find that you have a much deeper understanding of who you really are, what your purpose in life is and who and what God is.

Since you so fond of this whale, let me give you a scenario:

Assuming, I've never seen a whale up close before. How would you prove to me a whale exists?

By photos, videos,'impartial witness' etc?

Yes?

Because you would deem all of this evidence combined as colloborating evidence and therefore a whale is real?

If you say yes, I will tell you all you evidence can be doctored.

Unless I see the whale in flesh, I will not belive.In order for me to belive, I've to take it upon faith that evdince you presented to me is credible.

Now lets us move to the next part of this scenario:

How about, I tell you there are 2 billion people who have seen,experinced God in various ways(Isn't 2 billion enough colloborating evidence?) and therefore God is real?

These people can show you God in His creation.

But you will say that all these people are being superstious,imagining thing etc

Yes?

Face the truth even atheism is based upon faith

klydeer SG

Again, from your replies, i dont think we are talking about the same loli.

You see, my Loli is about Christ. Yours is - about yourself.

That is why to you, it can never be free. Because the fundamental of it all, you worshipped yourself - but yet you cannot do everything by yourself.

What Christ offered is free but it is not about the freedom to do things as you like. It is totally 2 different things. Knowing Jesus sets you free from the delusion that men can live properly on their own.

Talking about frogs...ya, i was actually a frog in the well. That frog croaked exactly like you do. But the day i jumped out of the well, i didnt get crushed by a car or something - instead i get to roam in a form of freedom and peace never experienced in that well.

You want "proof" ? What "proof" are you looking for ? What do you have in mind when u say "proof" ? Care to tell us ?

Why i am asking is that if you do not know who God is, how do you know He exist even if He shows Himself to you or created something out of the ordinary ??

And you didnt answer the question if you are also a gambling addict.

Chin Eng SG

Laughing actually he didn't answer a lot of questions..... just a whole bunch of denouncement....

didn't even answer my question on whether he believes that there is a supernatural realm..... Wink

casino_king SG

The evidence can also be doctored so heck it just go with superstitions?

2 billion people who have seen and experience God? Then these 2 billion people would have been in agreement with each other as to what they saw and experienced, yet you have all these denominations fighting with each other over who is more correct.

Kind and loving God who is willing that his son DIE a horrible death but not willing to show himself to save the world?

How does one become so delusional naive and superstitious like you?

casino_king SG

I am trying to help gambling addicts but they tell me stuff like the way to gamble is this and that and I am like... no no no... there is no "the way" you need to look at reality and based it on mathematics and probabilities... and they are like, last time this and that and so and so and this and that....

sounds exactly like religious people.... refuse to see reality and choose to believe in fantasy and imagination.

So simple if there is a God, ask God to make an announcement and show itself and since you claim that it is omni this and that... it is not possible that it can't do that.

Ask Jesus to stop sitting there and do the easy thing since he had done the difficult thing 2000 years ago and stop all this controversy and delusions and imaginations and just appear, talk to people, let people check him out instead of hiding in some imaginary mansion up in the sky....

Chin Eng SG

Which is why I am still asking if you believe in the supernatural?

Leave the Christian God and the Christian doctrine for a moment and consider if these 2 billion(?) folks of all races and creeds and religoins have imagined the supernatural.

Why am I asking you this? Because I don't believe the argument is on the Christian God per se, but whether supernatural exists!

casino_king SG

Everyday as you go about your life, you encounter the natural day in and day out and you never encounter anything that cannot be explained in natural terms and yet you claim the supernatural.

Yes a few thousand years ago whne man see lightning in the sky, it is a supernatural event because he had no way of understanding it.

More importantly, man had not develop a system to determine the cause behind events and "strange" phenomena.

Now we have well established methods of finding out the cause behind every thing that happens around us.

Yet we have a couple of billion people who still choose to base it not on the established and proven method of finding out the cause but continue to use 2000 year old teachings to live their lives.

This is totally unacceptable.... but if you keep to yourselves and do it quietly in your churches and mosques and temples, nobody will disturb you. But if you come into public forums to try to sucker others... I am so sorry, you will meet with opposition because people cannot allow this type of superstitious beliefs to permeate society...

klydeer SG

sigh....

i ask you: "what kind of proof do you want to see ?" i did not ask: " is there a God ?"

Da2 Fei1 Sou3 Wen4...

You are "trying" to help gambling addicts ? Based on what ? Your experiences ? Or your profession as a counsellor ? How can you help them if you also sound like them ? Ask you one thing, you say another ?

Similarly, you are trying to "rescue" "suckered" victims in this forum - based on what ? Your experiences ? Do you know "our" God ? Do you know what is in the Bible ? Is your mission based on theories or assumptions ?

Proof ! Laughing

klydeer SG

i have a strange feeling that he doesnt want to answer your question because he "does"....... Wink

Icemoon SG

haiyah .. CK is just a tool to boost the ego of the CRO lah. Laughing

casino_king SG

Do you read what I write before you reply or not? If somebody comes up with a theory or claim then he must produce the evidence and whatever the evidence, it must be observable and replicable independently.

Like if I claim that these is an animal I chose to call a whale, I must produce the evidence and decribe it and anybody can independently check it out for themselves.

I cannot simply say that there is a ghost I choose to call H6N128767 that lives in your house but nobody else can see it but it is like this and that and does this and that... and if you are lucky you can feel it...

There are well established principles to determine if a claim is true or not and if you claim the existence of a God then produce the evidence that can be independently verified. But it is pointless for you to produce the evidence because your claim is that God is Omni this and that and so God can do the dirty deed for himself and there is no need for you to do it. That God does not shows that you are hallucinating about a God.
