Reread the post.
Or do you really want to go back to those who preach "forgiveness" and "love of your neighbor", yet support the death penalty and the ostracization of homosexuals?

It means people like you, and whodey, and the various other fundamentalist Christians are people who she in no way wants to be associated with.
Originally posted by whodeyJesus said that He will judge. If you haven't figured it out, that doesn't include you. Jesus spoke time and again against hypocrisy. You judge homosexuals as unfit to attend your church because of what you deem to be their sin. Based on prior discussions, you allow yourself and others to continue to attend your church even though you continue to sin.
Love and forgive. You mean like driving money changers out of temples with whips?
Originally posted by ThinkOfOneI think I'm a pretty humble person but whatever. At least I'm not arrogent with rudeness.
You're certainly a prideful one.
And I simply suggested that you reread the post - twice.
What's more, I gave you an example anyway.
Anyway I asked for a list I could discuss with you not one example.

I chose to give you one. Take it or leave it. Or you could even do something radical and reread the post (if that's not beyond you).

Originally posted by gtbiking4lifeA notion that seems to be quite prevalent, especially amongst Christians, is that there is something "unkind" or "rude" about truth.

They spend so much time in darkness that they can't stand the light of truth.
