Oh. I'm sure I did... Oh well.

What would you have said? And how did you think he responded?
whizzball1 said
Wait, I thought you meant mentioning his asexuality at all.
Legend said
You never mentioned anything bad about it.

I didn't think it necessary back then. And my da only recently told me about how teaching not to marry is demonic.
Legend said
Ah, although I wouldn't go as far as "demonic," but it is wrong to teach that. A personal decision to not marry isn't though. And sorry for the delay between posts; I'm done unpacking....... To an extent.

That's what the verse said, I believe. Also, I'm off to bed. Bye!

Not trying to start a fight, but:"Teaching" can be simply giving reasons why someone personally feels it's a good or bad idea."Demonic" does not necessarily mean "bad" or even "against god" (who, as a deity, is a demon) so to use that word is to misunderstand it's meaning to some degree.If god has a will for ___ as David suggests, then how do you know that someone teaching not to marry is against that?You've previously implied that (at least) all non human action events are controlled by god to further his plans, so why would someone teaching a conclusion they have found be "demonic"?I get the whole "knowledge is sin" thing but giving more information to someone from which to make a decision should not be considered "demonic" or "bad" by any means.To imply that teaching ____ is against god is to imply that the world he created is against god and to imply that teaching anything at all is against god, or (at minimum) anything that is not "objectively" (by which I mean not disputed by denominations) what god taught (preferably as Yeshua and not as YHVH) is "demonic", which would include the whole of human knowledge.Again, not trying to start a fight, just trying to see how you could logically think that spreading information could be "demonic".

You know, I don't even feel compelled to argue. I totally emptied my debate yanks, and I feel great.

Again, they were asked/said for the purpose of hearing the opposing position, not to try to convince, per se. Did you already or are you still up for the ifunny debate?

"The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth. (1 Timothy 4:1-3 NIV)"There's the verse, David.

There's a huge difference between "teaching" and "forbidding" though. Ironically, followers of this quote are forbidding people from marrying atm. :3
