Rant of the Day
To the individual out there who came to my aid in my darkest hour, thanks for being like a brother.

I know you're probably out there on some message board debating atheists, new agers, socialists, etc… as you preach the Bible to them. But anyway if you happen to read this just letting you know that I really appreciate what you did.

Thank you. You know who you are. :)

@mmm bacon0, ghostrunner, jerrie, Genejoke - thanks for commenting.

@maycroft - another pastor said "Do you know Christ or just your religion?"

Zenny - Interesting. Theres so many ways to interpret these symbols that I dont know anymore what is the "real" way to interpret them. Though I've seen an interpretation of the pentagram as being a multi-meaning symbol with the following meanings:
- Its the symbol of God (tetragrammaton)
- 5 elements earth, wind, fire, water, spirit
- symbol of the 5 points where Christ was wounded (crown of thorns, both hands, both feet)
- inverted pentagram means spirit below carnal desires.

For Islam I've run across two extremes. There's those that cannot hurt a fly and those that are violent extremist terrorists. Havent really studied the Koran so I cannot really give a fair comment. But from my own observation I just can say that Christianity is better than Islam because even that insane church I mentioned in the previous rant is totally anti-violence.

I forgot to mention that that pastor also thinks that martial arts is of the devil because it involves meditation which is occult therefore evil. Anything that mixes the occult is of the devil.

@SoniaCBU - I personally think that that pastor just wanted to create a church that purges all pagan references from Christianity. Because the wiccans, atheists, and zeitgeist movement have a valid point when they say that Christianity took the cross symbol from more ancient religions.

According to this pastor (and others as well), all the ancient gods and goddesses are demons or nephilim. Yes. Of every culture. Roman, Greek, Egyptian, Babylonian, Mayan, etc… all their gods are evil because of human sacrifices and those civilizations were morally decadent. Therefore the symbols… are demonic.

@Asbin - lol you're right.

@Sariling Mundo - but… you can be demon-possessed without your knowledge. Who knows?
