There is certainly a lot of gnashing of teeth and wringing of hands
going on in the political arena today regarding Christians. That got
me to thinking about it, and this sticks in my head:

After throwing out extremism, which is present in some form in ANY
group/belief, you have the vast core of people left. The 99% of
Christians, who are not extremist, try to live their lives following
some basic rules. Boiled down, the rules are:

1. Have no other gods before me [the God of the Hebrews].
2. Make no images of anything in heaven, earth or the sea, and do
not
worship or labor for them.
3. Do not vainly use the name of your God [the God of the Hebrews].
4. Do no work on the seventh day of the week.
5. Honor your parents.
6. Do not kill.
7. Do not commit adultery.
8. Do not steal.
9. Do not give false testimony against another.
10. Do not desire another's wife or anything that belongs to
another.

So now, if you do not beleive in God, throw out the first four, as
they apply only if you are a believer. Can anyone seriously argue
against the remaining six? Do you really have a problem with someone
who lives their life following those six rules?

Before you start blathering about "forcing rules and beliefs on
people", remember that sword cuts both ways. If my group wants to do
"A", and your group wants to do "B", and then your group gets voted
into power and enacts "B", you've just done to me what you were
screaming about me possibly doing to you. It's called Democracy.
Don't like it? Wait around a few years, and you'll get a chance to
change it.

Now have fun... I have work to do. On Sunday.

Some people are not sharp enough to seperate the people from the
doctrine.. Others just hate religeon because religeon asks questions
that require self advocacy and personal responsiblility.

Personal responsibility? An awful lot of religious people defer
difficult
questions to a higher power, rather than think about things
themselves.

Wrong again, we defer no decisions to him, we, like say astrologers
go to the iron staff of the Lord for guideance. Your
stereotypes are not only insulting but ignorant. But then again when I
saw it was you responding, I knew I would be wasting my time..

You never had a mistype? Of course you have, you just can't address
the issue that again, you were talking out of your ass. Ok, since you
can't keep up I have removed the "hard" words for you..

Try again, fat ass...

"we, like say astrologers and numreatists go to the iron staff of the Lord
for guideance."

Still makes no sense. Are you saying numreatists and astrologers go to the
lord for guideance, and you do, too?- Hide quoted text -
