Re: Which religion will stand its ground against the gay agenda? [W:743]
We're all told what to think and believe, Verthaine, and quite frequently.-
Now, let's say I hold a gun to your head and tell you what to think and believe. Now there, you would have something. But I'm not holding a gun to your head, and you have the freedom (and luxury) of simply tuning me out. You are FREE Verthaine, please understand this. Everyone is free to say and do what they want. The day someone sticks a gun to our heads and tell us otherwise, is the day you have a point. Besides, it's disingenuous of you to sit there and lay this on me, only.
There is a saying in my profession."You can't take the heat,then stay out of the kitchen".
YOU are the one who created this thread.
YOU are the one who added a poll to a thread titled "Which
Religion Will Stand Against The Gay Agenda" that only had ONE RELIGION (Christianity) divided into FOUR DENOMINATIONS.
Look at the very question you first asked "I've noticed a lot of churches have been caving in to the demands of gay activists, so my question here is, which of the remaining 4 will still be standing after the dust settles?"What kind of question is that?Does Gays demanding not to be treated like second class citizens means religions "cave in" when they say "OK".
Not once have you stated what those demands are and how these churches are "caving in".
YOU are the one who has been stating OPINIONS and BELIEFS as FACTS then don't or can't backed them up when asked to do so.
Here's just one for example.Post #1507.The one DIRECTLY after the one you posted above (#1506).
Decisions are at the core of homosexuality, not genetics.
You provide absolutely no evidence,oh wait,I forgot,you are through with the providing evidence and now it's the sledgehammer approach.
Post#791
I'm through with evidence, too. You people don't need any more evidence. The next step is a sledgehammer type approach.
YOU are the one who complained about being made to "jump through hoops" when quite a number of people here told you that "Because the Bible said so" is not convincing enough evidence.
YOU are the one who has been telling people here what to think,what their opinions are,what to believe,and what they need numerous times on this thread.Which I have pointed out numerous times.
Here's an example of what I am talking about.
I'm here to tell you, not convince you. I'll let Detroit do the convincing.
Here's another.Post #1444 in your reply to Boo Bradley
"And every belief you have must be cleared by atheists. How does it feel to be answering to anti-Christians? Do they extend you the same courtesy on spiritual matters?"
And now you want to talk about freedom and about ME being disingenuous?
You seem to have no problem talking about other peoples sins,but the moment someone points out YOUR sins (in this case VANITY) there's a problem.
Actually,I think it is appropriate and quite fair to "lay this all on you,only".
As you yourself pointed out,YOU created this thread.
You are right,though, I am FREE, I have the freedom (and luxury) to tune you out,but I also have the freedom (and luxury) to say "I think it is not a very nice thing for you to keep on telling people what to do,think, and believe on this thread and a think you should stop that and let others think for themselves."
YOU have the freedom (and luxury) to tune ME out.
Fine by me if you do.
