If you could be any video game villain, who would you be and why?
That’s pretty easy: I would be Big Boss from Metal Gear. He’s really cool liking (+1 eyepatch points) and he’s one of the greatest soldiers ever. However, Solid Snake is way cooler than he is. Liquid Snake is lame.
Therefore: Big Boss.
evan, do you know this person who is being so combative with you about religion? btw- great job with the response. ps. you are my favorite…….
I am unaware of who it is. It’s someone trying to bait me into contradicting myself, probably.
Favorite? What?
therewasagirl asked: I am not religious at all, but I admire your faith and how well you defend yourself. Cheers. =]
Thank you (that goes for you others that have given me kind words).
I’m doing my best over here :]
Dear followers,
I’m sorry that some of you have departed, but I feel these questions are of great importance.
As my pastor says: “There is a Heaven to gain and a Hell to shun.”
P.S. Thank you to those who have stayed. I hope you get something out of following.
P.P.S. Don’t worry, I won’t stop posting weird electronica and geeky things I find.
Anonymous asked: Have you ever actually questioned your religion or have you always just blindly followed it?
I was actually not a hardcore believer until the last few years. Faith was hard to me to understand for a while. But things are different now. I’m proud of who I am.

which testament do you follow?
Both.
Another AG-er! So great to see you’re down with pentecostals! I’m AG myself, God bless ya homeboy!
Yeah! Right on!
simce you can be gay and get into heaven, does that mean u can commit adultery and that crap and still go to heaven? because theyre on the same level. but jesus died for our sins. so i could kill someone and go to heaven? Sorry to put this on you.
If you become saved, you can go to Heaven. You can repent and have all your sins forgiven. However, not everyone will be going to Heaven automatically.
onefootinthegrave asked: my point was there is a lot of ridiculous shit in the Bible that would be best forgotten ;) It just bothers me that so many on the right end of the political spectrum ignore Jesus when he says that it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into heaven, but remember a bunch of ludicrous rules in one of the most obscure chapters of the Bible.
I think many don’t realize that the New Testament is in existence and it does change some of the teachings because of the presence of the son of God.

What are the basic rules of being Pentecostal?
There aren’t specific “rules”, although there are legalistic Pentecostals. I am not one.
I am part of the Assemblies of God. The basic beliefs are: the Bible is to be taken literally, spreading the word/mission work is of the utmost importance, and a filling of the Holy Spirit in a person can happen (which can result in speaking in tongues and healings).
therewasagirl asked: Just curious, you might've said so and I missed it: if a gay person believes in god is religious and all that jazz, do YOU believe that they can still be accepted into heaven? Because, by Jesus, technically their sins are absolved.
They can be accepted into Heaven. However, believing in God means that you believe in following his teachings, which include renouncing homosexuality. I am not an expert, by any means, so I don’t want to act as if I’m providing the end all explanation. I’m trying as best I can to give the right answers.
onefootinthegrave asked: 20:1
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
20:2
Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
20:3
And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
20:4
And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and kill him not:
20:5
Then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their people.
20:6
And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
20:7
Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God.
20:8
And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am the LORD which sanctify you.
20:9
For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
20:10
And the man that committeth adultery with another man’s wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour’s wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
20:11
And the man that lieth with his father’s wife hath uncovered his father’s nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
20:12
And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood shall be upon them.
20:13
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
20:14
And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.
20:15
And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and ye shall slay the beast.
20:16
And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
20:17
And if a man shall take his sister, his father’s daughter, or his mother’s daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it is a wicked thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people: he hath uncovered his sister’s nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
20:18
And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness; he hath discovered her fountain, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
20:19
And thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister, nor of thy father’s sister: for he uncovereth his near kin: they shall bear their iniquity.
20:20
And if a man shall lie with his uncle’s wife, he hath uncovered his uncle’s nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
20:21
And if a man shall take his brother’s wife, it is an unclean thing: he hath uncovered his brother’s nakedness; they shall be childless.
20:22
Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out.
20:23
And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
20:24
But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I am the LORD your God, which have separated you from other people.
20:25
Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.
20:26
And ye shall be holy unto me: for I the LORD am holy, and have severed you from other people, that ye should be mine.
20:27
A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood shall be upon them.
I think this is in response to my question about homosexuality.
The key thing to remember is: in the New Testament, Jesus forgave a woman for committing adultery. Through Jesus’ death, all of our sins were absolved. No sin is lesser or greater to God.
Also, this passage is very long. I apologize to my followers if its length has bothered you.

Why did you ask yourself this question: ;dlkfghdhops]r[phks r[phks [rpgkn].[phtismvpo ] Are you trying to be funny?
My girlfriend put that in my formspring.
”..his followers will receive blessings that gays will not because of their choice in lifestyle.” Isn’t this fair to say about fat people too? Seeing as how gluttony is one of the 7 deadly sins?
The 7 deadly sins are a creation of the Catholic church with no basis in the Bible. I am Pentecostal so I don’t follow the Pope in any way.

Do you believe in life after love?
Yes.
I’m not a Christian, nor do I pretend to be, but I must ask if gays have the same love and blessings of God as his creations, or are they condemned for their ‘questionable’ lifestyle? (Btw,make more themes dammit)
Gays have the same love from God, as he loves all equally. However, his followers will receive blessings that gays will not because of their choice in lifestyle.
I’d be really hyped if you did

So you do not eat any pork, nor do you wear any clothing that blends cotton with any other fabric, nor do you do any sexual acts before marriage, nor do you shave or cut your hair, nor do you exert any effort on the sabbath?
It sounds like you are attacking me, actually.
