Very well put Bobby. Much appreciated. I love the sound of Truth.
Some Christians say this platitude; God said it, I believe it, therefore it's true.
I think it would be more accurate to say; God said it, therefore it's true.

From the Christian persepective; we are all about what happens at impact... but the folks we try to warn, tell us to shut up and quit disrupting the exhilaration they are feeling during flight.

Well at least you are not being thrown to the lions anymore. Not we have to listen to your incessant caterwauling too? Sheeesh, give you Christians an inch and you want to take a mile.
Originally posted by UllrWe don't want your inches or miles. We care enough to warn you of the ensuing impact. We don't have time to argue the truth of it with you for long, before we have to go and try to warn someone else who may have the ears to hear.

Originally posted by sumydidWell at least you have sense enough to recognize when someone is not vulnerable to your predatory spiritual behavior. But not to worry there are plenty of victims in the world that you can frighten and exploit.

Originally posted by UllrThe thanks we get are snide, arrogant remarks like yours. I don't see how you define that as exploitation.

Originally posted by sumydidSo let me get this straight. You want me to thank you for trying to impose your spirtual beliefs on others?

If that is the case why don't I just thank Dasa since he is more forceful than even the run of the mill evangelical Christian on here.
Originally posted by UllrNo! Of course not. I expect you to hate what I have to say, truth be told.

Thank him all you want. He's no less misguided than you. You're brethren as far as I'm concerned. Give him a hug and a kiss on the cheek if you want.

So now you are encouraging homosexuality? Isn't this a bit hypocritical? Won't your god be angry with you?

Ok I'll pipe down. I meant a brotherly peck on the cheek but regardless, it wasn't appropriate. I'll stop.
