@Arkturos saidDespite what you seem to think lately, ironic foolishness is not a good look.
Maybe not so much a joke, as a way to consider the world and live within it for our long yet short durations.
I think I have been trying to include you, but sarcasm is rather off-putting.
Similar to what I might have posted @ Suzianne: I wonder if some people have only been exposed to a sarcastic environment, and from that have grown up to think that is the correct way to live and interact with others.
@Philokalia saidMore "Christian" thought, that we've seen far too much of around here.
But what can we conclude that must be believed due to Christianity?
There's a few things, certainly. The basics - being against murder, theft, etc. But a lot of the tone of Christianity seems to divorce itself actively from political norms, and we have even them saying that obeying the autocratic governments presiding over them is a necessity...
Thus waking up in a ...[text shortened]... ay that might be necessitated from a Christian perspective is voting in a pro-life way or some such.
"My way is God's way!"
Ummmm, not exactly.

Hands out flowers at the Shop-N-Go
Hopes for money, but all he gets is fear
And the wind blows up his coat
And this he scribbles on a perfume note
"If I'm not here, then you're not here"
And he says, "Call me Miscreation
I'm a walking celebration"
And it's hard to make a stand (yeah)
And it's hard to make a stand (whoa)
Yeah, it's hard to make a stand
My friend, oh Lordy
Went to take care of her own body
She got shot down in the road
She looked up before she went
Said, "This isn't really what I meant"
And the Daily News said, "Two with one stone"
And I say, "Hey there, Miscreation
Bring a flower, time is wastin'"
And it's hard to make a stand
And it's hard to make a stand
Oh, it's hard to make a stand
You know it's hard to make a stand
Yes, it is
We got loud guitars and big suspicions
Great big guns and small ambitions
And we still argue over who is God
And I say, "Hey there, Miscreation
Bring a flower, time is wastin'"
I say, "Hey there, Miscreation
We all need a celebration"
And it's hard to make a stand (hey)
And it's hard to make a stand
Oh, it's hard to make a stand (whoa, oh)
Yeah, it's hard to make a stand
Oh, I think it's hard to make a stand
Okay

@Arkturos saidOh, good God.
How many women do you hope to impregnate, and what about their personal sovereignty?
Sorry, but your previous post or two in this thread made you seem a little other-worldly and as if you were discussing things in an abstract way.
TBH, now I am beginning to wonder if a Russian Orthodox person in South Korea might be yet another false persona and -- dare I say -- a troll.
Here's a test: If you really are South Korean, what is your bedtime skin-care routine? 😉
Do you see now why I call you a hypocrite?
You go on and on about my behavior yet you post this.
@mike69 saidNo thoughts on Matthew 6?
Every time I’ve seen someone try and talk to your Godless people about God they receive fingers hate speech violence and on while receiving none of that. The woke teaching of your church go against Gods teachings would you like me to walk you through watch the videos I’ve posted and answer???? You can’t pick and choose lukewarm degenerate
@mike69 saidSo no thoughts on Matthew 6. It figures.
I’m talking of on the streets at lgbtq gatherings receiving fingers and hate and violence it’s everywhere online.have you heard of it, sickening
I have zero idea what you're talking about, nor how it has anything to do with Matthew 6, especially since it's not happening.
@Suzianne saidSue I’m not attacking your church I’m standing up for mine that you put down and showing you how your church promotes your political agendas and activists povs. If my videos are fake, this is one I posted please just answer to it and tell me where it’s fake and we’re good, quit insulting my faith. ?si=8qqJ0vcTE-9Py4XH
Your videos are lies.
You blame them on my church.
They are staged and they are embellished.
As a Trumpublican, you've never had a clear idea of the difference between right and wrong.
You are clearly lying to denigrate my church.
There is something in America called Freedom of Religion.
Your hypocritical lying about my church, attempting to defame it, is w ...[text shortened]... aming my church. You will cease and desist your harassment or you will eventually be banned for it.
