Apparently, defending yourself against people who launch rockets and suicide bombers at your civilian population and state their main goal is your very desruction simply because you exist is "looking down your nose at them." Who knew?

That's awesome.

-- Correct me if I am wrong but I don't remember gays calling for and carrying out lynchings, burning people's places of worship, dragging people out of their homes and lynching them, etc. etc. etc. Maybe I need to get cable....

There are times when feelings confirm your love for God and His for you. But there are often times when love is a choice. When the truth isn't supported by feelings and you have to go on faith. God sees your love and trust in Him when you do not feel it warmly in your heart, and He rewards that.

Well put. I would still champion the memorization of scripture, though. The personal memorization and recitation during times of prayer and times of decision can prove most valuable. I have been taught that the Word of God does not come back void and that whatever scripture you put in you...

-- There have been Presidents strong in their faith that has been dismal Presidents. There have been Presidents who, by their own admission do not spent much time worrying about what God things, who have been outstanding. Using the person's faith as the main litmust test to decide whether or...

LOL Spot on.

When the end truly comes, billions of people (and among them, some of the nicest people in the world) will end up spending eternity in Hell.

-- Nope. But you did show that if he disagrees with you, then the spiritual leader of your denomination's deeply personal beliefs are "just an opinion" and nothing more, and Catholics (contrary to Catholic doctrine) are under no responsibility to see it as anything more than just an opinion...

Excellent post, Rach. Personal responsibility is the key. Providing 'awareness' is only helpful if what you are saying is factual. In many cases those 'facts' have been anything plus. Handing governments hundreds of billions MORE of our money with zero accountability, no concrete plan or...

To be honest, the first time I ever heard about Tim Tebow was when I heard someone complain about him. Their complaint is simply that he is overt in his Christianity and that offends them. The childish end zone dances and trash talking didn't bother them in the least. His fath, however, put...

-- Not to put too fine a point on it, but I would give that same warning about the spirit of confusion to you, as well.

Most have an idea of what they believe and denominations that may dovetail with those beliefs. Because I moved many times in my life due to the military and my civilian job I have had to 'church shop' more than once. Does the church teach and follow God's Word. Does the church sincerely praise...

Nope. I started the thread because the article appeared online. Sorry to to deflate your narcissism but you weren't even on my mind when I posted it. Your response is not surprising, though. You couldn't address the issue. That would show you out of step with your own church. So, typically...

-- Nope. A sincere wish. -- I remember in 2002 scientists from Britain's Climate Research Unit (the same ones whose email release shows they are befuddled and trying to hide the data) saying that by 2008 parents in England will have to tell their children what the substance called 'snow' USED...

-- God's Word saves. If the doctrine is based solely and specifically on that...

-- You still haven't refuted what Dowser said. Why? Because you can't refute facts. You are right, Gore isn't a scientist. So why then do you listen to him? I have no idea what 'Countdown' is. You'll have to share. And of course you intentionally ignored the best part. Here let me post it...

I understand that you have to change the subject to save face, but we were talking about you saying that British colonialism (you know, the brutal invasions, slavery, murder, rape, imprisonment, theft of resources, etc. etc.) was a good thing.... You want to complain about the U.S. but Britain...

So what you are saying is not just the monarchs but the parliaments of the last 300 years have been criminals. I would tend to agree.

Don't you just hate it when the spiritual leader of your denomination doesn't agree with you? But you'll of course disagree and do your own thing, even if it means disagreement and disobedience. Why? Because you are special, and special people do what they want, not what is right. .
