Reverend Phelps and his anti-gay monument

but Jesus did not personally put a law down in writing. He talked and put his law into the minds and hearts of his disciples. Neither did his disciples set down laws in the form of a code for Christians, classifying the laws into categories and subheadings. Nonetheless, the Christian Greek Scriptures are full of laws, commands, and decrees that the Christian is bound to observe.

Not at all, your sentence: "May it serve you well, but right now I know it isn't." completely mystifies me. I have no idea what it is that you intend to say with that. And, of course, now you have edited that post, so i would have to deal with revisionism.

Of course, no one has asked the question : If Leviticus says 'Kill homosexuals' and it does, is it a violation of the commandant 'Thou shalt not kill.' to do so.?

OK, who let the Angry Chimp out of his cage again?

You're turning into quite the blight on the forum, fella.

Why don't you see if you can mount an argument without an ad hominem?

Spelling and punctuation and sentence composition are all a reflection of a person's education and intelligence.

Most people strive to be clear and cogent on a discussion forum such as this.

I don't think people ought to use words that they don't know how to spell. There are several online dictionaries where one can verify spelling and meaning. I use them all the time. Hell, this website has a spellcheck for posting.

It's just an observation on my part that folks on the boards who exhibit some of the same reading, spelling, and comprehension difficulties also tend to agree with Bush that Saddam and al-Qaeda planned 9-11, that WMDs are still waiting to be discovered in Iraq, and that Wal-Mart is a great place to shop for everything one might need.

It could be that they got a nice Wal-Mart-style education -- ubiquitous, woefully inexpensive, served up by overworked and underpaid people and complete with a valueless warranty.

Frank,

I don't care what you take. I was giving you what I read and what I think is right. So you believe whatever you want. I am not about to argue with you over "what he means" because it gets no where.

Go ahead read into that and say that I don't have the ability to back up what I said. Bully all you want you will not get me to get into this topic that is pointless to began with. No where did I want to start this. Point it out. I am only answering questions that were proposed to me. No more questions that are reasonable to answer. The whole reason was to show, whoever, that I have a reason for my answer to the question on this post. Yawn to this conversation and the ones that want to be right. Go ahead and be right.

What is with people always wanting to be right? Complexes I suppose.

What the Hell was this all about?

FOR ALL THE REST OF YOU -- what has happened here is that Monkey has realiized that his/her arguments fall apart with even minor inspection. So rather than acknowledge that he/she was on the wrong track -- and perhaps offer a revised argument -- he/she is sulking.

Don't judge him/her too harshly.

Probably a kid.

ad hominem is Latin.

It means you're a bleeding rectum.

Glad you found your dictionary.

See? It's not so boring after all.

Do you suppose you can find an improved attitude in there?

I have dictionaries. I don't read them. I use them, not read them like a book. And yes it is still boring.

No need for a revised argument. We don't agree and that is all there is to it. With that in mind - we can agree to disagree. You believe Jesus meant one thing and I believe he meant another. I do not want to get into an argument over who is right because it will not be a fight worth fighting. I told you what I believed enough to make my first post on this question within reason of what I believe. If that makes you ruffle your tail feathers then oh well.

I weep for your easily quenchable thirst for knowledge.

Crocodile tears.
