Originally posted by KellyJay I agree with you, if she wishes to not put herself out there I'd stand behind
her. This place you can get ridiculed for some very petty things. After
thinking about it, the question would have been better asked with no name.
But earlier in this thread (page 1) when myself and a few others took this stance you have here, you stepped in with this challenging and somewhat pious comment:
Originally posted by KellyJay ... Christians are supposed to be able to share about the hope they have. To not share would be keep that hope away from those that don't have it and need it.

Have you changed your view now?[/b]Suzianne has shared the hope she has, but why should she throw her pearls before swine and get them trampled under their feet?
Originally posted by RBHILL Well what do you put your hope in? God's word, evolution, man, your gift of singleness, your children, your parents, liberalism, food, ext.?
Why would someone "put their hope in" evolution??
That's like asking if someone puts their hope in gravity.
Also... food???
I mean most people would certainly hope FOR food...
We have this habit of dying without it...
But putting hope IN food?

So are Muslims.
Questioning each other's performance in "sharing" their hope looks like "holier than thou" self-righteous nosing in on other people's personal exercise of their faith.
