Would you rather go to prison or church? (Page 8) Blackshoes: I go to Church and Trust me Jail sucks ! It's not like anything you can imagine other than being caged with wild animals that claim to be humans Blackshoes: I doesn't matter , Church is about God ,Heaven, and Hell' ,God relationship with mankind throughout the ages Jail is all about punishment and justice . More about punishment than justice ! (Edited by Blackshoes) Blackshoes: Heaven isn't a reward nor is hell a punishment .. Heaven is a gift and hell is the simple absence of God .. God Puts it this way One path is hard and differcult that leads to a life with God In Heaven One path is easy and filled with pleasures of every kind and leads to a world with out God There's only two destinations the path that God love grants you the grace to walk" Heaven "and the other where you reject God grace and Love "HELL" (Edited by Blackshoes) TheCovenant: The church and jails are simply reflections of a society's values. When a society is cruel, so to are its churches and jails. Blackshoes: Church's are not jails ! No one forces you to go to church ,or are you required to pay to get in ,nor is the church cruel .. Where and why would you imagine such nonsense .. Note also that the Church's in particular the Catholic Church is the most charitable organization on Earth ! (Edited by Blackshoes) The flying Squirrel: yeah shore were got heaps of food Programs here run By the Anglican Church Mainly , Catholics dont do any thing , If fact there famous for turning people away , putting there own needs first The flying Squirrel: In Case the post 3 up up is changed , it says the Catholic Church is the most chartable organization in the world , then i responded ;eyeroll: Blackshoes: It's no surprize you haven't a clue The Catholic Church is the LARGEST charitable organization in the world.

For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. -Matthew 7:5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye. Psalms 35:16 With hypocritical mockers in feasts, they gnashed upon me with their teeth. (Edited by Blackshoes) TheCovenant: actually you are safer in jail than in church. in jail you are protected by the constitutional presumption of innocence . in church you have no such constitutional protections. Blackshoes: LOL You've never been in prison outside of the US Not that the US prisons are that much better Nor are you aware of how many persons go to prison that where later found to have not committed the crime they've been imprisoned for Also all crimes ',that are not capital crimes YOU"RE GUILTY UNTIL YOU PROVE YOURSELF INNOCENT ! Therefore all needs to be done if you cannot afford a good lawyer or have a good alibi is be accused of a crime ! You don't have to commit a crime to be arrested or imprisoned All you have to do is be found guilty (Edited by Blackshoes) TheCovenant: prisons and jails have an additional safeguard that churches dont have. it is the role of the prosecutor to find the truth, not seek convictions. It even says so in a book somewhere, so it must be true. Besides if the church does something to you, you have no recourse, who are you going to complain to? the Vatican? these guys brush off cases of pedophilia like they were nothing at all. I also understand our current pontiff has yet to apologize to the first nations for their involvement in the residential school abuse. That's a lot of bags to apologize to. (Edited by TheCovenant) TheCovenant: catholic church is against birth control. the number one cause of global warming is overpopulation. hows that for charitable...
TheCovenant: As to churchs being places of sanctuary, I simply say thomas beckett. I don't know anything about being in prison. but I do know about the absence of God. it was the Morningstar who gave us knowledge of good and evil. Our name is legion. Gabriel (Edited by TheCovenant) Aura: Blackshoes speaks with such authority Did you find Jesus in prison? It would certainly explain a couple of things. The flying Squirrel: Corse he does , He Knows all hes Got wickapedia He better go Confess now to His Priest The flying Squirrel: And No He would"t of found a Catholic priest Ministering to people in Jail , There all Animals Sub Humans , Its not like Jesus ever Ministered to the Lost to the Drunks to the Prositutes , No too good for that The flying Squirrel: Be we Have Got Cardinal George Pelll In Jail here now , For Sex crimes , But he was In charge of Finance at the Vatican , Mabye hes Lecturing them how Charitable they are TheCovenant: i mispoke about prisons. forgive me. i can speak about communist prisons. communist prisons are where you lose your faith, not find it. Durak (thats russian for idiot.). Geoff: A society is judged on how you treat your prisoners. And frankly, the countries with almost empty prisons are those most likely to also have almost empty churches. Blackshoes: I've never been Prison ?. I have no authority . I often Speak from the word Of God . God Is the Creator of all things ' there is no greater authority than his words and actions . I've started reading God word at 12 YO . I've read it well over 40 times .. I'm curious ? What would My pass explain . I have a number of friends in prison . I said I go to church and I didn't nor do I wish to say anything here in front of those that I've blocked and wish me harm.
