I respect completely your disagreement with Serpent Seed.. I was once in your shoes... the very thought of it repulsed me as I thought it was almost pornographic to talk about... and preached against Serpent Seed publically.....
As you know I have changed my opinion.. thank God for America.. lol... anyhow since those times I am amazed how people get so upset by this doctrine when it is a completely non essential issue...
For example... I am with you if we are talking someones eternal soul,, their salvation... I am with you in being adamant... but if a person sees things different in the book of Revelations differently that I do... I am not gonna part fellowship or get upset about it..... and if someone like me sees the event sin Genesis different than you do.. does it really matter? Should it upset you as much as it does?
Help me understand.. why the anger and disgust with the subject? Honestly, if it does not pertain to salvation why get so upset about it... you guys don't get this upset of Trinitarianism, a doctrine that presents a false God for people to worship...... for the life of me.. I don't understand how the doctrine of "Original Sin or Serpent Seed" whichever you choose to call it is so upsetting for people... if you tell me you're a preterist or a post trib believer..... I am not going to get disgusted and furious... you are still my brother.. we both believe the same gospel of salvation....
Ok, sorry for my ramblings

Whether salvational or not, the serpent seed doctrine is a perversion of truth, in my opinion. That's why I am against it.
