If Jesus died to forgive us, then why is there a Hell?

brahmin is implying Setanta is a red neck... I like it, taking his coments and turning them on him. Are you a lawyer or politician or what?

i didnt imply that one bit.

i was trying to find a plausible reason why he should take such strong exception to a widely used term.

Joshman, I was asking brahmin to explain what I foresaw as derogatory assumptions to groups. I doubt I was ignorant of his intent.

But, sure, I might be. So, then, I'd like to hear sentences explained without derogatory intent.

which sentences?

i was trying to suggest a plausible reason why he could have such a chip on his shoulders and why he could possibly react so aggressively to what was a very harmless comment involving a derorgatory name that the english had devised to describe a certain type of people.

cos they are of the same ethinicity as him ??
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ thats what the RESULT of the "math" i suggested be done, is supposed to be.

I don't know which sentences, Brahmin, as you haven't said them yet.

Though I don't think you knew how complexly the words red neck can be heard in the US, I did take them as 'dumps'. I don't know what 'something' told you I am more ignorant of their connotation than you are.

Could you all just discuss the question, whatever it was?

i never implied that you'd be more ignorant of the connotations of the word red neck than i, being as you are from usa !!!

i said you would be ignorant of MY REASON TO HAVE used the those two quotations from someone.

and then went on to explain why i supplied those two quotes.

and i have said this b4 too, and i'll say it again - i used the word red neck to slot that guy who made that loony opinion/vote in to a fitting slot, not against any ethnicity.

That is the moral equivalent of using the word n*gger for the same ostensible purpose. I noted in another thread that you eagerly inquired if a particular bit of evidence of institutional ignorance were in Alabama. You nothing of the United States, obviously, but you've read just enough crap about it to make slighting remarks on a regular basis. This from the clown who touts his homeland for its tolerance.

i think i was wrong all along Wink

and you dont need to try & get even with me here (on this thread) for silencing you for good in the "what tipe of religion.." thread.... nor for exposing the real reason why you are so damned sympathetic to butts (of humour) such as those rednecks.

You've never silenced me anywhere. And yes, i have sympathy for people who are unjustifiably the butts of other people's racists humor, and such references as rag-heads.

You delude and flatter yourself if you think you are the object of revenge. I go from one day to the next with never a thought of you. If you will post idiotic remarks about people of whom you know nothing, you can expect comment. If i happen to read such remarks, you can expect comment from me.

well you did stop answering for good in that thread and completely factored out of the convo and only the elders talked after that.

redneck isnt a racist comment. i am reporting this ok?

that is extremely mutual. you just don't exist for me. and i wish there was a way, i could come to this nice forum/board, without having the utter displeasure of getting relplied at, by people i never enjoyed discussing with, right from day 1. and that too, when i never directed my comments at them, but to a completely different third person (ie. its that moron i called a redneck and not you. Just how and why you jumped into this i'll never know... or maybe i know, thanks to those two lines i quoted from you)

and yes i confess i knew little about rednecks except that they are supposed to be boorish right down to their last cell. but now thanks to you, i know quite a bit about rednecks. and the idiotic comments came from you when you first tried to give the adjective (which is how i used it) "redneck" a religious twist and now a racial twist.

Hey fella; when you come onto a public forum anyone has the right to respond to anything anyone says. That's what public forums are all about.

Kabish?

i get you.

i just wish all of them were a pleasure interacting with, which unfortunately isnt the case.

in my post, i meant to say, i wished there was a way i could avoid getting replied at by people who deliberately or otherwise misconstrue totally harmless comments and then declare some sort of a totally meaningless verbal jihad on me.

If it bothers you then ignore them. Reply to those that intrest you.

Many people feel hell is a distortion of the idea of re-incarnation.

I thought brahmin's contribution most unpleasant and lame. I'm glad ossobucco questioned him as she did. Brahmin -- Better behavior is in order.
