Well, snood. Now you have your e-mail address published.

Only for a moment. I'm fixing to delete it, as soon as Lash says she has it.

You concerned for my safety?

Man, you're tough.

And just a little paranoid, too, it seems. I was trying as hard as I could to get the thing visible. It was visible to me when I viewed my profile, but evidently not in a place where the general public could see it.

Ease up a little. I'm trying to work with you here.

I worry about your motives sometimes, Intrepid. You seem a little wolfish under that white wool, sometimes.

I want to make one thing perfectly clear to everyone. I, in no way, feel I am superior to anyone for any reason.

I have a faith and belief in God, yes. But that hardly qualifies me for any superiority status. I will not compromise my beliefs. But I know one thing, I'm sick and tired of the nasty little namecalling that goes on with a particular person more than others.

So tell y'all what, y'all clean your front porches and I'll clean mine. Y'all stay off my porch and I'll stay off yours. :wink: But as I have been told quite often, if I know of direct evidence proving something said is incorrect or in direct opposition to something stated earlier, I am going to point it out.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. What specifically are you referring to?

Matthew 7:15

...an admonition that folks ain't always what they seem.

You keep throwing darts, but claiming the gospel of peace as your credo.

If you equate stating facts as throwing darts, then I guess I would be guilty as charged.

BTW, I have never claimed to be perfect.

I forgot to mention - also Lash, you and I both have interest in educating young people.

I just can't help but think that we could find common ground if we wanted to, and find a way to avoid all the ugliness. I'm willing to try. Are you?


OK, snood.

It was this.

LOL. I'm going to have to go to the bathroom. This is so funny.

I wanted to talk privately about this post so we wouldn't gum up the forum with personal conversation. .....which is what we just did trying to get a private venue.

They're going to call security on me.

LOL

Well, I need to point out that the claim that you know the only way to get to heaven and that everyone who doesn't follow your beliefs will burn in hell is one heck of a superior statement. While you may not feel superior, I think deep down you believe you are, or you have faith that you are.

I just love it when I tell people how I really feel and they turn around and tell me it's not what I feel NOT! That is what the Bible says (believing in Jesus Christ). I didn't make up the rules. God did. You get to decide what you want to do just like anyone else so I'd say that puts us on an even plane, wouldn't you?

You made the choice to believe in god. You then made the choice to believe in Christ as the son of god. You then made the choice to believe in your particular beliefs about the bible. You then made the choice to believe that your interpretation of the bible is the correct one.

You've made several choices out of the possibility of hundreds. You think god made the rules, but you've chosen to follow THAT god.

You believe your choice is superior or you would have made a different one. Please show me how I'm wrong here.

Isn't the correct choice superior to the incorrect choice? You believe that you've made the correct choice, which means that the incorrect choice is inferior.

I'm sick of Christians and really all other religions trying to lie about their beliefs on superiority to others.
