2 Timothy 4:3-4
3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
It is not often that I end up getting in debates in which people invoke the word of God as if they own it. I usually find, being religious, that I take no offense to those of differing beliefs. When being preached to, I try to make a conscious effort to accept it with grace knowing the attempt is made in good faith for the perceived goodness of my soul. That being said, I sometimes have difficulty doing so when fools try to use God as a justification for their argument, especially when the justification makes no sense.
The above Bible verse transcends any belief system one may have. I think most humans yearn so much to have someone else agree with them that we often close our ears to the truth that is staring us right in the face. If you find yourself in a debate with me, let us try to understand one another and really look into the possibilities of what the other is telling us. Perhaps through challenges and counterpoints, with respect and attention, we can uncover the truth together. Steem is a great medium for such fruitful conversation.

You are ridiculous and low))) I'm not surprised at this. What can you expect from a man who manages to deceive, three times in one short conversation. I'm afraid to think that you can preach with such views on justice. You lied for the fourth time. You say that you are serious about faith. Then why are you stumbling over a person, let it be @haejin . Do not you believe that everything is predetermined by God and you need to get confused under his feet? You do not know God's principles. What kind of faith can you talk about here?
You are right in one thing, I made the mistake of looking for a spark of reason where it does not exist. It was very stupid of me. I confess this.

Because you say I deceived does not make it so. I have not.
I never said you were looking for reason. In fact, I said the opposite. You run from reason as if it were a lion. Engage me in respectful discourse, not baseless extraneous claims.
If you ever get to the point in which you would like to discuss facts instead of emotions, I will be ready for respectful and fulfilling discussion.
