I would rather someone be a Christian than an alcoholic.
His statement is not untrue. I have known many people with addiction problems and it seems to help if one loves something more than they love themselves. Be it family, God or country.

Right .. as Monte Clark said ...
"The key to this whole business is sincerity. Once you can fake that you've got it made."
That was my point .. Hill/Billy are phonies.
Hypocrites.
They're politicians plain and simple .. and therein lies Bush's flaw .. he really IS a Christian.
Nothing more pious than a reformed drunk

Originally posted by jammerYou also said "but i'd be the wrong person to define what Christianity stands for", so how did you determine she isn't Christian? Your only argument so far has been that her face doesn't look like she's Christian, which isn't a very good argument.
Hillary CLAIMS to be a Christian .. she's not.

Hypocrite.
The part you quote is a disclaimer.
Not being an expert doesn't preclude one from having an opinion .. if it did you wouldn't be allowed to post at all.
You, like many, are hung up on Critical Theory .. must be a student in our fine education system here in CA

I don't define what a Christian is, not qualified .. I give my opinion that she's a phony .. and she is.
I have studied Christs teachings enough to know a phony when I see one though (BTW, most who claim to be, are phony)
I don't claim to be a Christian either, just a student of His teachings
Originally posted by jammerYou keep contradicting yourself. "I give my opinion that she's a phony .." - okay, fine, that's your opinion. "and she is" - this goes beyond giving your opinion, you state that your opinion is also a fact, despite saying before that it's only your opinion.

Also, you still haven't given any arguments for your opinion, other than that you don't like her face.
