LYING FOR JESUS

Setanta,

I can't argue with you there. Is it just the christians that are lying though?

I've seen many people take the bible out of context as well by taking just one part of it and promoting some wacked out theory based on one scripture... or a bunch of little pieces out of context to try to make a whole. Both christians and non-christians. I think there's a potential for that to happen with just about any theory out there. It's easy enough to do.

Since you need some action... do you have any references to some of the many non-christians doing what I have colored red in your quote?

Where are CI and Frank when you need them?

I know you believe you understand what you think I said; but I'm not sure you realize that what I said is not what I meant.

Ahhh backed into a corner once again. Dang it all.. There are things here I could quote... not sure if I'm so comfortable doing that though... it seems like I'd be hanging people out to dry... Of course if I don't I'm hanging myself out to dry, correct?

I was actually talking more about things outside of the forum. Which I can offer no proof for because it's just my word that things happened a certain way. Let me see if I can find the ones I've seen here... could take a little time though...

What I mean is that I think this whole thing was blown out of proportion. I meant what I said when I said it. Then I realized I was wrong about my whole argument stance and apologized. Do ya'll want me to lick your boots clean now? Cause if that's what you are expecting you will be sorely disappointed. I won't grovel and beg for forgiveness when I've already apologized once. You can take it, leave it, choose to ignore it. It's up to you.

Would anyone else be interested in hearing me repeat myself one more time?

Oh yes, let me go ahead and APOLOGIZE now for losing my patience here.

Did everyone catch THAT apology?

I finally found something close to what I was looking for, though I realize after re-reading this that "wacked out theory" was a little harsh on my part. Forgive me for this please J_B.

Does this satisfy your question Mesquite?

If that is your rendition of an apology, it needs some work. Re our short exchange: the only apology I saw was for using J_B as an example for the statement not for making the statement itself.
