T-Bone v Anonymous
T-Bone - Radiating power and strength, this deeply-spiritual massively-built African-American towers over most inmates. He is a prison gladiator with more stab wounds than Julius Caesar. A good man to have on your side.

Enough with the god nonsense. If a god existed that was even remotely merciful or loving, T-Bone wouldn't be in the situation he or those people are in. God has plans for T-Bone by ruining his life and making him caretaker over sexually abused criminals? I think T-Bone exaggerates his stories and relies on the god bit to garner support or sympathy for being a thug who still gets into trouble and can't keep his hands off people. This is what you get when you deal with irrational thinkers and people who believe in silliness like bronze age bible myths. Playing the god bit to justify violence and being in jail is sickening. If this is what is considered a hero to some readers, they need to get out more.
T-Bone responded:
Why be so negative because I trust in God? I’ve made a lot of stupid mistakes, and I can look myself in the mirror and say I’ve changed. I don’t use people or pretend to be someone I’m not. God has gifted me with abilities, and I allow him to work through me.
Because of your attitude, I believe that you have either been pushed around or you have been pushing people around.
I make no excuses for my behavior, and I’ve made a conscious decision to never come back to being a prisoner. I am into working, finding a decent woman, and living life to its fullest.
Another thing: the guards and administration don’t do anything about rape. I am no hero. Jesus is. He gives me the ability to do right. If Christ wasn’t in my heart, I would just sit back and do nothing like the rest of the naysayers. God is love, and love is action. I believe people should stand up when God calls them to do so. He will protect you and guide you if you trust in him completely.
So whoever you are who doesn’t believe because you “get out a lot,” I’d like to meet you one day, and show you the scars on my body from standing up and being worldly. I hope that will show you that you can’t push the truth aside
Peace to you, Anonymous. I will pray for you.

T-Bone is good people. Much respect.
ReplyDeleteLeaving aside the much larger god / no god debate, one thing that does rather trouble me is the suggestion made by some believers that those who don't believe therefore do not behave in a loving / responsible / moral way = "If Christ wasn’t in my heart, I would just sit back and do nothing like the rest of the naysayers"
ReplyDeleteAlthough this is the situation for T-Bone, there is not an automatic correlation between the two.
Just sayin' is all...
