comparison and equation
Only semantically (and for the wrong reasons).
comparison and equation
1. Some reason?
Phil Robertson Was No Fan of Chicago, Either | NBC Chicago
Phil is apparently so ignorant, he thinks all Mormons are from SLC Utah. :lol:
2. Sorry, but you defending Phil's quote stating that 20-year-old females will pick your pocket and are bad options for marriage but fifteen and sixteen year-olds are A-OK is such a lost cause, you really ought just back away. Unless, of course, you want to reinforce the stereotype about redneck Christians thinking a woman should be barefoot pregnant and ignorant. Not to mention, insulting all women who are in their twenties out there. :lol:
Nope yours are.Nope. Your interpretations are wrong.
Only semantically (and for the wrong reasons).
Not all Christians...just hose who like to hurl the word "sin" around while pointing their finger at a sexual orientation minority.One might say it is the height of hypocrisy for you to fault Phil Robertson for lumping all Mormons together when your vile hatred spewed through this entire thread is of the singular purpose of lumping all Christians together... and one would be right to say so.
No it wasn't. But, spin away, Maestro.You have been shown that your characterization of the quote, and who it was directed to, was completely wrong. Learn to accept your error with dignity.
Whether A & E is damaging A & E, remains to be seen. It is not a stand alone network and the other brands could be damaged.
Yeah, so? That is not the on show on the A & E network.
Phil? You mean the guy who never saw Blacks being mistreated throughout all his years of living in the Jim Crow South? Yeah, he's credible :roll:Nope yours are.
Even Phil agrees with me.
Phil has every right to say any stupid thing he wants. No crime. And A&E can fire him, rehire him and promote him all they want to. And, gays can boycott if they want to. And, anyone can watch or not watch the Dynasty thing as much or as little as they choose to as well.So...stop acting like Robertson committed a crime. He has an opinion; he expressed it; you don't like it; welcome to the real world.
Being "OK" with homosexuality should not really be the issue. Hell, I'm not "OK" with it. But, I'm not going to tell Homosexuals that they are sinners who will be sent to hell unless they start ****ing girls either. They are what they are, and not by choice. It's thier lot in life to be attracted to the same sex. THat, to me, sounds like quite a burden already.Like it, or not, not everyone is going to be ok with homosexuality. Pressuring people to remain silent about their negative views of homosexuality is no different than pressuring gays to remain silent about being gay.
Not all Christians...just hose who like to hurl the word "sin" around while pointing their finger at a sexual orientation minority.
by the definition
How sad.Phil? You mean the guy who never saw Blacks being mistreated throughout all his years of living in the Jim Crow South? Yeah, he's credible :roll:
He answered a question of a specific time period about his personal experience. He made no such comparison.I'm sorry, but pre is before. It's a comparison. It's simple communication.
Fox news? iLOL :dohFox News isn't specific? I'm sorry, but you're just closing your eyes.
It takes a lot of head burying in the sand to have missed Blacks being mistreated in Louisiana back in the 50's and early 60's.How sad.
His personal experience is his personal experience.
You have nothing but absurd doubt, which is meaningless.
It takes a lot of head burying in the sand to have missed Blacks being mistreated in Louisiana back in the 50's and early 60's.
That is your assumption.It takes a lot of head burying in the sand to have missed Blacks being mistreated in Louisiana back in the 50's and early 60's.
If a Christian got up in my face and called me a sinner, I'd punch him in his. Instantly.But Christians also claim everyone sins. Why is the specific sin they are referencing important? I mean, unless you have some odd obsession with homosexuality. It is just one of many sins.
:dohgood move backing off the lie you posted
again simply provide any FACTS you have to support your false claims, even ONE will do
FACTS:
no content in MY conversation was ignored, if you disagree post factual proof
no assumption were made by ME, if you disagree post factual proof
your two statements are wrong.
"Stating they are sins, is not making a comparison."
"and you would also be wrong if you are asserting that he equated the two behaviors"
PROOF:
Comparison
: the act of suggesting that two or more things are similar ]or in the same category
Comparison - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary
he put them all in the same category thus factually comparing them
: to treat, represent, or regard as equal, equivalent, or comparable
Equate - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary
he did treat them, represent them and regard them as comparable sins
Facts, links and definitions destroy your two statements and prove them wrong, as always, I ASK AGAIN, if you disagree simply post any facts you have that prove otherwise and simply quote me making the assumptions made up
one shred of factual evidence you cant do it
Unless you lived in an extremely simple living, rural area.
That is your assuption.
By his own experience - Not where he lived.
What ever. A&E did the right thing by bringing him back.I'm not buying it. But, I see you two do.
If a Christian got up in my face and called me a sinner, I'd punch him in his. Instantly.
I'm not buying it.
Yeah, that is why semantics work.
Invade my personal space and I may just shoot you. No one has the right to get in another person's face. I'll take my chances with a jury on that.I believe that you would batter someone for speaking. Absolutely.
I personally would not. But my supported positions and way I act are not based in hysterical emotions, so that might be the difference.
:doh
:lamo
Stop telling lies.
Your assertions are still wrong as previously shown.
It doesn't look like you will admit it though.
What a shame.
But Christians also claim everyone sins. Why is the specific sin they are referencing important? I mean, unless you have some odd obsession with homosexuality. It is just one of many sins.
Yeah, that is why semantics work.
