Ask Me Help Desk - How can you force your beliefs on someone?

:confused: Please tell me if someone simply states what they believe how is that forcing your beliefs?

When you argue with someone over and over and continuously think your way is the one and only right way, you are trying to force people to believe your way is the only way.

That is not right. I have my beliefs, which I choose to keep to myself, but if you knew them you would bash me and my beliefs like you have begun to do to so many here already.

Just because I may choose to believe differently than you does not make what I believe in wrong.

A good debate is nice once in a while, but telling people that your way is the only way is totally unacceptable and rude.

I was raised to keep my religion and my politics to myself, and it has worked very well for me.

I am hardly bashing nor am I arguing with anyone.. you have taken things way out of context. People can believe what ever that want.. but if it isn't about Jesus it isn't right... point blank The bible is right.. maybe I actually know what I believe maybe that is my problem. Oh well I say my peace and that is that. I know the truth and I know I am not alone.

My point EXACTLY!!

So Judiasm is not right because they do not follow the Bible?

They are wrong for being born Jewish?

Muslums are wrong because they believe in the Kuran?

Are they wrong for being born Muslum?

I recommend you take a course in World Religions. It would certainly open your eyes to the world at large.

Well your first point was right on, you are NOT "forcing your beliefs" when you say what they are.

Your second post is contradictory, "people can believe what ever [they] want... but if it isn't about Jesus it isn't right... point blank The bible is right."
You say that you are tolerant of other people's beliefs and opinions but then you say if it isn't what YOU personally believe in, Jesus, then that makes their beliefs null and void.

Please understand, you are coming here as a new member and I have received more complaints on you than I have spammers and people posting obscene material because of your attitude and your constant use of the "disagree" buttom, You should state your beleifs, perhaps using bible verses, but again, others can use bible verses to show their point of view. Remember all christian beliefs are based off a bible verse or teaching, even those that are opposite

No one is asking you to change your view points, only respect those that have other beliefs, since they are also all based on the bible. And they are just as sure as you are that they are right and you are wrong.

So you know the truth, so does the other members who have a different idea, they know that their teaching is also the truth, you need to come to grasp with that, if you study comparison religion you will find that many opposite beliefs are all bible based

So if you are truly a Christian, you will understand that Jesus did not go in and put down anyone for their belief, he merely lived and expressed his teachings,

We want you to be a happy part of our family ( as disfuntional as it is) and we can share beleifs, some will learn from you, and you may well learn some other bibie teachings you were not aware of. No one stops learning.

Please let us all remember that the Bible is open for interpretation. What one may see out of a particular verse, someone else may see and understand something completely and entirely different.

That does not make one person right and the other wrong, it just means that we all see things differently.

What I say is how I feel I never said any one people or any one religion. If you have a problem with Jesus that's you. I never pointed any fingers at anyone. I said that I (key word) Believe in Jesus and I know what he is all about. Yes he is the only way... if you can't or won't accept that its your problem. I don't appreciate being told that I am bashing I am absolutely not! I am telling what I know and believe to be the truth if you can't accept it fine! Don't tell me I am bashing or forcing anyone to believe anything. You can't force anyone to do anything.. I mean really get a grip.

You need to get a grip.

So you are saying that any religion except your is not the way? I did not put those words in your mouth you said it. Here, I'll show you:

he is the only way

Girl, take a world religion class, you need to know that there are others who are just as passionate about their beliefs as you are, but they believe differently than you do.

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT!!

Right then, Caresse.
Listen up and listen good !

With an attitude like that you are highly unlikely to last long at this site.
TOLERANCE of others beliefs and ideals is something that AMHD prides itself on.

Now you are free to express your own beliefs in any way you want, but when you start to belittle other members because they disagree with you, then you have over stepped the line.

This type of activity WILL cease NOW.

This is your FINAL WARNING on this subject.
Action will follow if you continue posting in this fashion and retribution will be swift.

I haven't belittled anyone

FYI

SHow me one time that it is wrong..

Really go back to your post #9 where you DISRESPECT Fr_Chuck.
Not only one of the sites most senior members, but a man of the cloth!

Also The Bible is one of the most well read works of Fiction there is.
The stories may have been based on fact at one time but after generations of being retold, by word of mouth, they have lost that fact and become merely a story.

A man of the cloth? He does need to get a grip... He kept on having an issue with what I believe... I don't agree with his sugar coating and him thinking he knows everything that is not so not saying I know everything... nor will I be told I am bashing so far from the truth. If I want to express what I know and believe to be the truth he should allow me that right. Like I said I am not bashing belittling or forcing anything on anyone.. I say what I know and believe with authority becaue I know Jesus is real in my life. I will share what I have experienced with anyone...

Jesus may be "real" in your life but this doesn't give you the "right" to tell others that they are wrong for believing anything else.
Point in fact is your post, quoted by J_9, #3.

Yea sure... who gives you the right to tell me anything.

Hmm I wonder.
Could it be because that I am an ADMINISTRATOR of this site and as such charged with up holding the Rules and ensuring the smooth operation of said site?
Who would be the site OWNER !

You are showing a serious amount of negative attitude for someone so young.

I am not negative at all actually just annoyed that people want to jump on me for what I believe and discredit my beliefs... but that o.k. I am not worrying about it. I said what I needed to and that all for right now. I just don't like when people discredit Jesus... its just so wrong.

Was that comment pointed toward you? How about you stay in your limits... no one said anything to you.

Thanks

So... not answering that one are we?

I'm perfectly within my limits.

Please realise that just because you say something, that doesn't make it true.

It is true to me as I have said you don't have to believe it... why people are getting so uptight I couldn't tell you but whatever people get mad at what they don't understand I guess... like I said the comment wasn't directed to you.. I will not argue with you, you have no ground to stand on really.

Picking a fight and pointing finger is not a good thing.. kind of childish don't you think..

Oh, so you're just so much more intelligent than the rest of us that you can see the truth in the world and we can't?

I do hope that you don't believe that.

NO one here is "picking a fight" excpet your negative attitude.

Don't forget what happens to trolls and others who try and create problems. ;)

I have no idea what you mean, but my finger is starting to hurt a little ;)

Yea a real problem I am sure.. I hope God gets a hold of each and everyone of you... you still will be stuck until you experience him.. then you will see. I will be praying for each of you. Serisouly. When you experience him some and find me I want to hear the report.

Please don't pray for me, I can and do pray for myself. My God is a loving God and I am in no fear of Him for any reason. I am in His graces, please pray for yourself.
