I understand that it's important that we try to correct each other, when we feel we are in error, but surely we can be a bit more polite and a little less insulting, perhaps? Don't forget, we're all Christians who are trying to follow the teachings of Jesus, as much as we can.

In singles and miscellaneous we do pretty well with that.

Now if you hang out in conspiracy or bdf, you might get a little blowback. Just don't hang out there. Stay in singles and miscellaneous where the nice people are.

A quick check of your post history reveals you actually do spend a lot of time in bible discussion forum, otherwise known as bdf. I strongly recommend you don't hang out there. Your blood pressure will thank you for avoiding that place.

Lynx has given you good advice and all I can say is that this is the human condition until Jesus comes back and resolves everything once and for all.

I work with all kinds of Christian people, from every kind of background and nationality.
Some Christians can be the worst. They seem to think that we have to keep forgiving them but Jesus said…..
Luke 17:3 KJV
…..If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.

Agreed... but I am not hopeful that's going to happen. It should, but it won't.
