Mmmmm... authoritarian :)emphasis mine )
NO DEBATING. Teens-4-Christ is not a 'debate' site. You will not change our minds, do not try. A quick read of Romans 1 will show that those who debate are in the company of adulterers, sodomites and murderers. Therefore, debating will not be allowed.

lol!
This place should be a goldmine of ignorance :)
That's some scary stuff Huffers.
You obviously know nothing of Christian history or any history for that matter if you hold the King James Version to be infallible. The KJV is a translation, much like a french dubbed version of Star Wars. Try telling me that a french or a chinese version of star wars is the definitive version with a straight face.

"Snake in Eagle's Shadow" is the definitive version -- the poor translation and bizarre choice of voice actors actually added to the film :P
Also, in some ways the chinese version of Star Wars is more interesting than the original.
And I've heard it said that the German translation of "Reaper Man" by Terry Pratchett is better than the original (not sure about this one, though).
Because a translation is based on the original version, therefore at best, it can only be as good as the original, much like a photocopied piece of paper can only be as good as the original at the very best, but in actuality is usually worse.
Examples of translations that improved on the original: Shrek and Shrek 2, in Spanish. Mostly because the straight-lazed humour of the English versions to pass US "censorship" of public opinion was very relaxed in the Spanish version.
Grey Wolf -- true, but they could believe the committees who translated the KJV were divinely inspired, and that they corrected the typos in the original manuscripts. Surely no crazier than believing the originals were divinely inspired.
of course.. I'm now begging the question "if there were typos in the (divinely inspired) original, couldn't there be some in the (divinely inspired) translation?"
To the Fundie - You and your site is a drisgrace to the internet, opressing your members, sticking your fingers in your ears and banning people who offer different opinions and different views is a sure fire way to create the board with the lowest member count on the internet.

And be more specific, what is "what you believe", because, as Orwell would say, some animals are more equals than others, and you´re keen on saying, well, I don´t agree with them, but.......
<<Guess what? im 16, turning 17, and im apparently the prime age for all those "activities" that you suggested. and i do NONE of them.
@Huffers
Sorry about giving you a hard time - I'm only doing it because you don't post crap and I thought I'd take a challenge in disagreeing with you.

Hey, check out this one from their rules..."It is not good message board etiquette to copy a personal post of another member and paste it on another message board without permission. This practice will not be tolerated if discovered and will likely result in the banning of anyone doing it. This does not include non-original material."
It's the Anti-FSTDT Rule!!! We got our own rule!!!
I have the urge to sign up for this site, just so I can be a troll and say things like: "Ass fucking a goat is totally christian!", "Setting Wal-Mart on fire is totally Christian", "sniffing crack cocaine from a hookers ass is totally christian" or "playing practical jokes that involve several gallons of maple syrup, 200 live pigs hijacked from a farm and a southern baptist church are definitely christian"
What is this? 1984? the Thought Police are on the rise? I'm sure the Ministry of Truth will be very happy.
EDIT: Ah, damn you Archangel_Lucifer for beating me to it...that sounds weird when you say it out loud.
Can we use the 1631 reprint of the King James Version, by Barker and Lucas, By Appointment His Majesties Printers?
It is hard to get hard copies these days, but there should be a scan on the net.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
