Do you really get college credit for stalking people???

Only when you pretend to work in "personal security."

Patrick I do work in Close personal protection. Do try to troll with
a little honesty.

Do you get college credit for stalking me?
Patrick Barker all anyone has to do is look at this thread and they

will see you as the Stalker and lying troll. How does what I do for a
living defend your defense of child abuse?

Patrick Barker was fucked up the ass by priests countless times as a boy,
and even into adulthood.

It's obvious.

Thanks duke, what what does he believe that isn't in the Bible?

Beats me.

"The only thing he believes is that NOT in the words of Jesus."
And now you're saying you don't know what you meant?

The scripture verses above come from Jesus himself. He refuses to consider
those. It's not a matter of what he believes, but a matter of what he doesn't
believe.

But you said earlier that it *is* a matter of what he believes. Were you
mistaken then?

Nope. He believes that he doesn't need to follow the teachings of Jesus.

Robert's a *real* Christian, duke.

Nope. Never born again. Can't say how or when.

And you were "born again" as an infant when a designated shaman
wearing
his
gaudy robe sprinkled some drops of magic water on your head while
reciting
a magical incantation.

Well, it's not quite as you describe it, but it is a voluntary desire
(of my
parents in my case) to make me a Christian in the manner that Jesus
Christ
gave
us. None of us are anything without our desire being carried
forward.
So there's no magic water nor a magical incantation. But instead a
fulfillment
of a desire. Of course, the value to the infant is acceptance into
heaven in
the case of death. Protest_ants are stupid for waiting for the teen
years.
And in the case of robert, I don't think he has ever been. He's never
been
able
to say how or when.

Then he can't be a Christian. The Bible is explicit about baptism.

Yes, it is, but robert thinks he knows better.

Why do you think he wasn't baptized?

He claims he's "born again" but can't say how or when.
He rejects it has anything to do with "baptism".

As a former Protestant, I somewhat agree. But baptism is necessary. Does he
say it isn't?

Yes. Yet he claims to be "born again" but denies that baptism is being born
again.

It isn't the same. Is that what Catholics believe?

It is the same. Scripture shows that. Robert is none too bright and
baptism/born again goes against his grain. He's wrong.

Please cite the scripture. Thanks.

Romans 9:8New International Version (NIV)
8 In other words, it is not the children by physical descent who are God?s
children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham?s

We are born in water in natural descent, and thus we are born again in water to
become God's children.

Romans 9,8 "That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are
not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for

Baptism in water = born again in water.

But I did. Baptized at age 8 weeks. How about you? How were you born again?

That means nothing for your spiritual life. If it were to have
happened then it was without your consent or knowledge. God does not
operate that way.

But surely his parents' priest muttered the appropriate Vatican-approved
magical incantation while sprinkling a few drops of water on baby duke's
head. To a Catholic, that means "born again".

Oh, my name was definitely written in the book of life when I was baptized at
age 8 weeks. Robert can never say.

Where in the Bible does it mention infant baptism?

Robert's a *real* Christian, duke.

Nope. Never born again. Can't say how or when.

And you were "born again" as an infant when a designated shaman
wearing
his
gaudy robe sprinkled some drops of magic water on your head while
reciting
a magical incantation.

Well, it's not quite as you describe it, but it is a voluntary desire
(of my
parents in my case) to make me a Christian in the manner that Jesus
Christ
gave
us. None of us are anything without our desire being carried
forward.
So there's no magic water nor a magical incantation. But instead a
fulfillment
of a desire. Of course, the value to the infant is acceptance into
heaven in
the case of death. Protest_ants are stupid for waiting for the teen
years.
And in the case of robert, I don't think he has ever been. He's never
been
able
to say how or when.

Then he can't be a Christian. The Bible is explicit about baptism.

Yes, it is, but robert thinks he knows better.

Why do you think he wasn't baptized?

He claims he's "born again" but can't say how or when.
He rejects it has anything to do with "baptism".

As a former Protestant, I somewhat agree. But baptism is necessary. Does he
say it isn't?

Yes. Yet he claims to be "born again" but denies that baptism is being born
again.

It isn't the same. Is that what Catholics believe?

It is the same. Scripture shows that. Robert is none too bright and
baptism/born again goes against his grain. He's wrong.

understand what's taking place and what it means" in order to be baptized, which
is a physical action in agreement by the parents in the case of infants..

Actually, what is followed as God's dogma comes from the canonized bible. But
there were many, many books written that were not canonized, so they offer
insight, but not official word.

And then of course, Jesus worked with men and women starting with the disciples
and 12 Apostles. These people were the source of additional information (John
21:25) taught to the early Church fathers, the growth of the Church in
Christians, and eventually to the teaching authority of the Papacy and the
Catechism of the Catholic Church.

What do protest_ants have? NOthing but a bunch of men 500 year ago who decided
they didn't like all that Jesus taught, so they decided what to accept from the
Catholic Church and what not to follow.

So there's no magic water nor a magical incantation. But instead a
fulfillment
of a desire. Of course, the value to the infant is acceptance into

been
able
to say how or when.

Then he can't be a Christian. The Bible is explicit about baptism.

Yes, it is, but robert thinks he knows better.

Why do you think he wasn't baptized?

He claims he's "born again" but can't say how or when.
He rejects it has anything to do with "baptism".

As a former Protestant, I somewhat agree. But baptism is necessary. Does he
say it isn't?

Yes. Yet he claims to be "born again" but denies that baptism is being born
again.

It isn't the same. Is that what Catholics believe?

It is the same. Scripture shows that. Robert is none too bright and
baptism/born again goes against his grain. He's wrong.

Please cite the scripture. Thanks.

Romans 9:8New International Version (NIV)
8 In other words, it is not the children by physical descent who are God?s
children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham?s
offspring.
We are born in water in natural descent, and thus we are born again in water to
become God's children.

Romans 9,8 "That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are
not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for
the seed."
That says nothing about baptism. Do you have another?

Baptism in water = born again in water.

But you can't cite the scripture?

Jesus demonstrated it.

You can't cite the scripture.

Jesus demonstrated it.

But Duke couldn't follow him.

But I did. Baptized at age 8 weeks. How about you? How were you born again?

That means nothing for your spiritual life. If it were to have
happened then it was without your consent or knowledge. God does not
operate that way.

But surely his parents' priest muttered the appropriate Vatican-approved
magical incantation while sprinkling a few drops of water on baby duke's
head. To a Catholic, that means "born again".

Oh, my name was definitely written in the book of life when I was baptized at
age 8 weeks. Robert can never say.

Where in the Bible does it mention infant baptism?

Where Jesus says "let the little children come to me and don't try to stop
them." There is not ONE word in scripture that says "one must be old enough to
understand what's taking place and what it means" in order to be baptized, which
is a physical action in agreement by the parents in the case of infants..
the dukester, American-American

Infants cannot nor could not go to Jesus of their own free will. Jesus
never baptized one person with or in water.

Robert's a *real* Christian, duke.

Nope. Never born again. Can't say how or when.

And you were "born again" as an infant when a designated shaman wearing
his
gaudy robe sprinkled some drops of magic water on your head while
reciting
a magical incantation.

Well, it's not quite as you describe it, but it is a voluntary desire (of
my
parents in my case) to make me a Christian in the manner that Jesus
Christ
gave
us. None of us are anything without our desire being carried forward.
So there's no magic water nor a magical incantation. But instead a
fulfillment
of a desire. Of course, the value to the infant is acceptance into
heaven
in
the case of death. Protest_ants are stupid for waiting for the teen
years.
And in the case of robert, I don't think he has ever been. He's never
been
able
to say how or when.

Then he can't be a Christian. The Bible is explicit about baptism.

Yes, it is, but robert thinks he knows better.

Why do you think he wasn't baptized?

He claims he's "born again" but can't say how or when.
He rejects it has anything to do with "baptism".

As a former Protestant, I somewhat agree. But baptism is necessary. Does he
say it isn't?

Yes. Yet he claims to be "born again" but denies that baptism is being born
again.

It isn't the same. Is that what Catholics believe?

It is the same. Scripture shows that. Robert is none too bright and
baptism/born again goes against his grain. He's wrong.

Please cite the scripture. Thanks.

Romans 9:8New International Version (NIV)
8 In other words, it is not the children by physical descent who are God?s
children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham?s
offspring.
We are born in water in natural descent, and thus we are born again in water to
become God's children.

Romans 9,8 "That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are
not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for
the seed."
That says nothing about baptism. Do you have another?

Baptism in water = born again in water.

But you can't cite the scripture?

Jesus demonstrated it.

You can't cite the scripture.

But you can't cite the scripture, despite your belief that the Bible is

Pasta, if you can't find the baptism of the Lord in scripture, you're in the
wrong discussion.

We weren't referring to Jesus's baptism, but of course I know where that is
too. (In all four gospels, e.g. Matthew 3.) I know the Bible *much* better
than you do (as does Robert), despite the fact that I know it isn't true
but you think it's God's word. Now what's wrong with that picture, duke?

Robert's a *real* Christian, duke.

Nope. Never born again. Can't say how or when.

And you were "born again" as an infant when a designated shaman wearing
his
gaudy robe sprinkled some drops of magic water on your head while
reciting
a magical incantation.

Well, it's not quite as you describe it, but it is a voluntary desire (of
my
parents in my case) to make me a Christian in the manner that Jesus
Christ
gave
us. None of us are anything without our desire being carried forward.
So there's no magic water nor a magical incantation. But instead a
fulfillment
of a desire. Of course, the value to the infant is acceptance into
heaven
in
the case of death. Protest_ants are stupid for waiting for the teen
years.
And in the case of robert, I don't think he has ever been. He's never
been
able
to say how or when.

Then he can't be a Christian. The Bible is explicit about baptism.

Yes, it is, but robert thinks he knows better.

Why do you think he wasn't baptized?

He claims he's "born again" but can't say how or when.
He rejects it has anything to do with "baptism".

As a former Protestant, I somewhat agree. But baptism is necessary. Does he
say it isn't?

Yes. Yet he claims to be "born again" but denies that baptism is being born
again.

It isn't the same. Is that what Catholics believe?

It's a common misunderstanding among us non-Catholics. They mean that's how
*Mary* was conceived, not Jesus. It became Church doctrine centuries after
the time of Christ.

I knew that's what it meant a long time ago from associating with a
bunch of papists. It's a silly bit of nonsense. If Mary was conceived
in the ordinary human way, how could that be "immaculate"?
She wasn't.

Read the Bible.

You tell me what passage addresses it, blowjob. I'm not reading the
whole goddamned book looking for one passage I don't believe is in there
in the first place.

Of course it isn't.

It is very well established: this horseshit about "immaculate
conception" was only adopted as church dogma - by corrupt child-rapist
priests - centuries after the alleged lifetime of Christ.

Clearly.
