I asked you if you were aware of it, not if you had personal experience of it.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieIf I recall correctly, you once started a thread with an article from a JW publication that more or less said 'sometimes it's right to hate people' ~ I can't remember the exact words, maybe you do? When you say "Christians do not loathe anyone", are you making some kind of distinction between "hating" and "loathing"? Can you recall that thread?
actually my statement is intended to be understood that there is no scriptural tenet for a christian to loathe anyone and infact they are under duress to demonstrate love to all people.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieYour friend redbadger has told you in this thread how he persecuted gay people by "bashing" them, do you condone or condemn his actions?
I have told you once already I have never seen or experienced it, I will not tell you again and
would appreciate it if you didn't repeat the same questions more than once as its rather
tedious having to answer them a second and third time.
Originally posted by FMFNo its not right to hate people, either you picked it up correctly or you made it up or i was mistaken, the christian is under duress to demonstrate love to all kinds of people, even those that persecute them. they are under no obligation to love the things they do and may even demonstrate a hatred for the things they do. We make a distinction between the person and the action.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieSo you cannot recall the thread that you started with the article from a JW publication about when "hate" is justified?

Originally posted by robbie carrobieDo you continue to contend that you are unaware of any Christians loathing or hating homosexuals either now or in the past?
What i stated and to be honest i am fed up stating the same thing again and again and again is that there is no scriptural obligation for a christian to loath or hate anyone, i am using the terms synonymously.

Your friend redbadger has told you in this thread how he persecuted gay people by "bashing" them, do you condone or condemn his actions?
Btw your continued avoidance of this question is being noted.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieWhat do you mean you do not condem anyone, you condemn people's attitudes and beliefs all the time in this forum, what makes redbadger so different? Are you going to exhibit the same lack of principle that other Christians in this forum exhibit by ignoring commentary you disagree with simply because you have chosen to be friendly with them?
This is the third time you have asked this, I make no moral judgement on anyone, i have
enough dealing with own imperfections. I will not repeat this gain, don't ask me about what
red Badger has done again. It will be ignored.

robbie seems unwilling to just come out and condemn 'gay bashing' and he would have us believe that he is somehow unaware of there being or ever having been any 'gay bashing' by Christians. He's backed himself into a peculiar corner very quickly on this thread.
