Remember, there are Biblical prohibitions against fraternizing with those who belong in the bottomless pit.
“I urge you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them. For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.” Romans 16:17,18.
“I have written you in my letter not to associate with immoral people—not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat. What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? God will judge those outside. Expel the wicked man from among you.” 1 Corinthians 5:9-13.
“But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God—having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.” 2 Timothy 3:1-5.
The high standards we have here in The Bottomless Pit are a bit higher than where you come from. I recall deleting a post written by you because it was too vulgar.

You are not in heaven. You are in The Bottomless Pit.

Dear Administrator
Sorry you have to go through hell and suffer because of what these people say to and about you after watching threads here. The above is a typical example. Please hold out Brother, your reward will be great. Pity they ignore your first post . I can see that you suffer false accusations just like Jesus did.

Let me see if I understand this correctly:
If Eugene places a poster in Eugene's room, which is entitled as "Hell," then there are biblical prohibitions against associating with those people? So Eugene has the power of discernment to determine who is saved and who is damned, in reality as well as on his board? < scratches head >

You're confusing a metaphorical forum location where degenerates can be themselves in preparation for their destruction as opposed to the real, eventual time and place where they will pay the penalty of everlasting destruction, forever separated from the Lord and from his glorious power (2 Thessalonians 1:9).
And you're also fooling yourself into believing that real Christians can't recognize degenerates when they see them. The point of all the Bible verses quoted is that not only can such judgments be made but that they are to be acted upon.
No one is saying that you are forever damned and unredeemable but the prospect that you might ever feel your shameful conduct and the need to repent seems unlikely.
Snip...

Is that what I'm doing?
Conversely, is your personal judgement on this matter certain? And is it your judgement --> or <-- is it the Lord's judgement coming from your mouth? ;)
Pray tell?

Hummm, this leads to two questions:
What shameful conduct are you talking about? < scratches head >
-- and --
How do you know that I have not repented of my sins to the Lord Jesus Christ and asked Him to be my Lord? Do you claim to be clairvoyant? Or are you claiming that the Lord Jesus Christ has revealed this to you? < scratches head -- again!!! >
