True, but that's like having a hamburger without the burger. Agreed. |

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
Not sensitive. Just not a big fan of people like that. I'm having a rought christmas and was pretty jumpy. Very very sorry J-dawg. I'll keep it in check next time. Religious debate is for the faith forum (slaps self)

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
It's been a rough year for a lot of people... but when you say you don't like "people like that" you mean Christians? if that's the case I feel sorry for you.

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
Wow...So your saying, what exactly? That could be inferred in many different ways.
I think he meant people that spew their beliefs every time they open there mouths. It gets old. Like there trying to prove a point to themselves. Or 'spread the good word'>> And, so what if he didn't like Christians? Last I checked, Christians don't like, for example, Gays and would very much like to restrict their rights. I know that this does not apply to all Christians and it would be ignorant to generalize. But if he said he did not like Christians I wouldn't blame him or call him out on it. Especially if he were gay himself and wanted to marry.

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
Firstly I'm not gonna open up a whole religious debate here because that's just ridiculous...we're on a music forum but Scott has NEVER spewed his beliefs on anyone, so lets get that straight. He's answered questions about his battle with addiction & of course in every interview he's been asked "How did you get through that?" & he's answered pretty much the same way every time...through reconnection with God & family.
The only time he's spoken in depth about his faith was the recent interview he did with Dawson McAllister & the "Listenin" interview and even that wasn't pushing anything on anyone...so imho you guys need to take a closer look. Last edited by Dark_Knight : 12-30-2009 at 10:06 PM. |

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
Yeah i was referring to people who do nothing but talk about god and jesus 24/7 and who think that everything good that happens is because of god. Its like in Scotts case. Don't thank god. Thank Mark Tremonti X D.
People need to give themselves more credit. Scott beat his addiction. Not god. I know a lot of people that have wronged people but believe they are forgiven in the eyes of the lord and have no problem with the fact that the person they wronged hates them. Most things to do with religion and religious people make me sick. Like how nagpo brought up. Gay men have lesser rights in america then the adverage citizen. Why? because a book says so. That is FUCKED UP. I believe in a god but honestly. The world would be better without religion of any kind. It makes no sense how still if somebody says there is a god and how much they love god they get a pat on the back. But if somebody says they don't believe in god they are immoral jackasses.

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
Well, since you opened this can... It's amazing to me how arrogant we as humans are. Colossians 1:17 tells us flat out that the Creator holds all things together. The very atoms that make up the cells of our body would fly apart if it were not for Him, not to mention that we cannot even take our next breath on our own. We do NOTHING under our own power, only what our Creator has given us the power to do. This has nothing to do with religion or religious debate, because it's not up for debate. You say you believe in God, but if you believe in God, you must believe His Word, because they are 1 in the same according to John 1:1. So when Scott gives God and reading the Bible credit for his life change, he is speaking the truth. And to try to clarify some Christian beliefs... 1. As you said, you can be moral and not believe in God. This is true, however my hamburger illustration was meant to make the point that there is no point to living a "moral" life if there is nothing behind it - ie. a relationship with the Creator. For the Christian, a relationship with the Creator is exactly what His Word says it is: it is a relationship whereby we humans who have all fallen short of the mark of sinless perfection (Romans 3:23) have accepted the fact that Christ loved us so much that He came to this Earth and died our death that we deserve as sinners on the cross. He then went on to defeat death by coming back to life 3 days later. (John 3:16, Romans 10:9, etc) The fact that we accept this truth guarantees our eternity in Heaven, rather than Hell (or "the place of eternal punishment", "lake of fire", etc - Matthew 25:46, John 3:16, John 3:36, Revelation 20:15). The natural tendency once you have accepted this truth is to strive to live a moral and honorable life, not just for yourself or others, but for the One who died for you, who even made it possible for you to choose Heaven. 2. You mentioned "lesser rights" for gay men. The Bible gives several clear examples of God's disapproval of homosexual behavior (Leviticus 18:22, Leviticus 20:13, Romans 1:27, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10). If you read Genesis 19, God destroys an entire city because of its sexual perversion. Our American heritage that began with the Framers of the Constitution is based upon the Bible and the values therein. As a Christian, I don't hate those who practice homosexual behavior - they, like myself, were created in God's image (Genesis 1:27). Also like myself, they were born into a sinful nature. However, the homosexual has chosen to embrace that sinful nature, rather than repent of it. I therefore hate sin, just as God does. 3. To those who do not believe in God at all, or you have bought into the lie of evolution or any other "scientific" explanation, I beg you to reconsider what you think you know. Genesis 1:1 says: "In the beginning God created..." Romans 1:20 says: "For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse." |

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
I think we can all agree that Scott is a better person and his relationship with God has helped him overcome this addiction. Even if you don’t share his Christian beliefs and believe it is all in his head, both faith and family are helping him out. In my opinion, he got himself into the mess by running from God.

Re: Stapp to Write Book (New Interview)
@iceman - You can quote bible verses all you want. The bible is wrong. It is factitious and as far as I am concerned the bible is really the first step to skepticism.
