This is a little heat.
This is BDF
And as for defending the truth? Spending my life proving I'm right and your wrong has very little to do with "defending truth." It's "defending ego."
I haven't been on BDF since this morning, but I can guarantee at least 90% of that first page is full of arguments over side issues. Not God! Side issues. It's all either conjecture or what-do-I-get-out-of-God. And, seriously? Exactly how long a defense do you give when obviously no one is listening anyway? Has anything fruitful come of that arguing? (And fruitful is what we give, not what we get.)
Also, what's to apologize for if there is no intent to change? All you've said is "man up." Where is that in the gospel?

I don't really mind those opinions.... as long as they are followed by rational explanation. I also have a bit of a problem with all the proclamations of fact.......... stating a personal view as FACT that can, in no way, be disputed because THEY have declared it to be. (Of course, usually stating "It was the Bible that stated it... not me.") Which is a bunch of Bull, since all understanding of the Bible can never be anything more that the interpretation each of us renders from our own position.
And it doesn't even take common sense to know enough to use capital letters, punctuation and paragraphs so people will actually be able to, and want, to read your posts.. Your being general, others do it too.
Lynn's picture made me think of the quote from a film i've never seen. lol
here you go

but if someone's opinion is that all Christians are lunatics that should be put in an asylum bc we are all haters and whatnot?
(Been to a non- Christian forum where such threads kept appearing ... and were accepted and defended by the mods)
They are still opinions. Should they be allowed merely for the freedom of speech?
What if they are really extreme and feel a certain group of people should be wiped out?
Is "freedom" of speech still valid?
