Just because she is a liberal like you does not make her very bright.
She is really dumb and if you can't see it, that does not reflect well on you
a conservative, both sides have their issues and strengths. It also isn't wise to just accept
someone as okay simply because of their political leanings as well.

Strong words. What was I dishonest about?

claiming this is good, or that is bad, I went to the source. So for me it isn't matter of what I
like or dislike, it is a matter of if it is scripturally sound. If you are accusing me of trusting
scripture to make a judgment call, I'm guilty. I don't judge what is real by what I like or
dislike, unlike you if there is something that I believe is true, I'm not going to deny the
truth of it simply because I don't like the way it sounds, or because it makes me feel bad.

different people over a span of 1500 years if I am not mistaken. People do use and abuse
it, no doubt about that, we at least agree on that point. Your views about the lofty ideas
people have about right and wrong I'd even agree with up to a point.
Unless there is some way to judge what is good, how do you define it, by what you feel
like, by what you think sounds good at the moment, by what those you hang around with
all agree too, by community norms? Over time those will change regardless of what you
come up with, yesterday being with child was a good thing, now people get up in arms if
you claim a pregnant woman has something human inside of her. People accepted slavery,
now we don't and the list can on and on. So what makes someone's views correct, just
the fact they have them today? If that were so then in time even today's standards will
be tossed out tomorrow.
If God who is the creator and ruler of the universe says something is good and other
things are bad, our opinions no matter how strong they are will not matter. If you think
people who are gay are free to live as they will in America, then they go to another
country they could be thrown off the top of a building, due to different norms. So what
you claim as good in one place could be frowned upon in another.
Without a standard that covers us all, there really isn't one that does. 🙂
