You may continue to mock if you please.
Evidently you derive some sort of amusement from doing such.

Mocking is provoked by invoking God's "wrath."
Still the lightning bolts, and I'll abort the winged monkeys.
I am interested in being friends with God because He is awesome.
I'm quite sure our friendship is very much in spite of my lack of awesomeness.
I see. So whoever gets mocked deserves it?Mocking is provoked by invoking God's "wrath."

So when the Jews mocked Jesus it was a righteous group of people properly subjecting Jesus to God's wrath?

Funny.
I took it to mean that the second you threaten someone with your gods wrath, you deserve to be mocked.
I actually agree with it.
The second you threaten another person with your god doing something, is the second you deserve to be mocked.

No need to put yourself down like that; why would God want to be your friend if you self-deprecate?
I don't consider it my place to direct God's wrath and I don't believe I have attempted to do so.
There are some who do receive it and I'd rather this not happen to those it happens to.
Because I have flaws and imperfections I am willing to be realistic about.
God knows I am doing my best and not trying to gloss over them or to expect Him to gloss over them.
That's pretty much how a genuine friendship works.
So, sojourner, you feel justified to dispense some of God's wrath upon me?

Do you whine to your friends on earth about how much you think you suck?
I wouldn't say whining is necessary to a 'real friendship' either.

I believe you have attempted to do so.
May I turn your attention to post #158? to wit:
I make an assessment of an opinion printed in an internet forum post, and receive God's judgment in return?

So you are saying that you disagree with your god?
Seeing as I have never seen anything that would indicate god delivering his wrath...
However, that may well be a topic for a different thread.
Not male nor female because God's holy spirit is neuter.
Neuter as in being an 'it' or an 'itself' - Numbers 11 vs 16,17,25; Romans 8 vs 16,26
God's spirit is not the Father but an active force that God uses as he puts his spirit upon someone or something.-Psalm 104 v 30.
