If you have to put a spin on it, I suppose this one is as good as any. But really, the problem with the analogy is that the person in this example is an imaginary friend; in any other context everyone would call you delusional. Why not find real people in the real world who can support us, instead of displacing our needs onto our imaginations instead? Side: I don't like it.

I did not assume you had, but thank you for clarifying. While we are being clear about things, I do not think people are "losers" for believing in God or loving Jesus. I hold the above opinions without assigning any value judgement to them; they are just the probable realities, as I understand them. Side: I like it.
a closer look at Luke 19:1-10 .. http://dadmansabode.com/forum/ 19:02 .. and there was a man called by the name of Zaccheus .. he was a chief tax collector and he was rich 19:03 .. Zaccheus was trying to see who Jesus was .. and was unable because of the crowd .. for he was small in stature 19:04 .. so he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree in order to see him .. for he was about to pass through that way 19:05 .. when Jesus came to the place .. he looked up and said to him . . . Zaccheus .. hurry and come down .. for today I must stay at your house 19:06 .. and he hurried and came down and received him gladly 19:07 .. when they saw it .. they all began to grumble .. saying . . . he has gone to be the guest of a man who is a sinner 19:08 .. Zaccheus stopped and said to the Lord . . . behold .. Lord .. half of my possessions I will give to the poor .. and if I have defrauded anyone of anything .. ......... I will give back four times as much 19:09 .. and Jesus said to him . . . today salvation has come to this house .. because he .. too .. is a son of Abraham 19:10 .. for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost .. http://www.gty.org/MediaPlayer/sermons/ Side: I don't like it.
