You don't half spout some utter unsubstantiated nonsense at times.
I'm guessing that (because all I have to go by is how you normally act) it is because you think everyone does nothing but attack, and so you just don't want to open yourself up.
Too many people think like you do. I think the more you know about someone, the less likely one is to attack them, not more likely.
FMF: Has your application of this principle affected the degree to which you attack people?And how do gauge and evaluate - and exercise quality control over - the manner and vehemence of your own not infrequent attacks on people here?

No. The manner and vehemence of their attacks do.
Originally posted by apathistYou made the claims, I am unaware of any scripture that says that.
Does the Bible say babies are born with sin? Do Christians say this. Was I inventing this.
Human nature is what they do have, and if you look how humans treat one another,
that is what each one has as they grow up. We tend to compare ourselves to ourselves,
looking at the ones we like and make them "the standard" for being a good human. We
can then paint a so called good standard any way we want, just find the person we like
and use them.

Originally posted by SuzianneQuite clearly I was replying to his post about babies not being born into sin. My post précis to the one you are replying to also addressed him on this topic.

Why don't you ask KellyJay why he never responds instead of harassing me?
Originally posted by apathistShow me the verse that say that! I've asked you countless times to produce one!
The Christian Bible does not tell us that babies are born guilty of sin?
You are the one making that claim not me, if I say something and claim it is from the
scriptures, you ask I'll produce what it is I'm talking about.
Things that lead to sin are choices and thoughts, babies don't make choices, and what
do they know? They grow and learn, from there at some point they will be accountable
for what they do, as we all are.
