Keeping the sabbath

-Removed-

When I was young I thought going to mass on Saturday evening was a case of slightly unworthy corner-cutting. Then, when I arrived in the town where I worked in Indonesia and realized how hot it got in the church on Sunday mornings, I chose to go in the much cooler Saturday evenings.

Its human nature. People do what is easy and shy away from what is difficult. Jesus addressed that and told them what must be done to get eternal life in the Kingdom of God. Its not, keeping the Sabbath, neither is it going to church, or long prayers or singing hymns or giving generously to the church. These are things churches promote, because it is what people like and what they believe makes them righteous.

Your "accuracy" in this regard has seldom been lower.

I didn't realize I needed to dumb down my post for a three-year-old.

My advice: stop calling them "speech marks". That's not all they do.

Is this "entering into the topic of the thread"?

Oh the irony.

A subjective opinion, brought on by your dislike of people who hold a different subjective opinion.

Stating an opposing viewpoint isn't "abuse", except maybe to those who desire to control the narrative.

My post wasn't taking issue with your OP. I agree with it on a base level. It's your putting down other Christians who do not share your personal Christian views that I take issue with, and therefore my post was accurate.

You taking issue with those who disagree is not a Christian value. But it's about all you do here. You rarely bring up a topic to discuss in a rational adult fashion, but only to pigeonhole other Christians and ultimately make fun of those who hold opposing viewpoints.

Discuss? No, you'd rather open your can of handy epithets you reserve for those who actually have the temerity to express disagreement with your treatment of others here. You misrepresent this as "trolling" when it's more akin to "anti-trolling".

But by all means, do carry on.

Oh, the gaslighting.

You don't see his remarks as "irony"? No, of course you don't. Because it's more important to your narrative to support all of his irony.
