Whether or not the insults, taunts, name calling, false accusations etc hurt, or don't hurt, or hurt less than the attacker wished for, they still serve a purpose, because they expose the venom and hatred in the heart of the attacker. Venom and hatred are fruits of the evil spirit. The Bible refers to such actions as "works of the flesh".

Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Why are you exposing your venom and hatred, Finn??? The primary poster spouting insults, hatred, and venom is YOU.

It is a defense mechanism. Finn has no honest way to address points made about the barbarity of some of the doctrines he so desperately holds, so he falls back on the idea that pointing out that fact is hurtful to those who refuse to acknowledge obvious facts.

What do you think to Jesus calling fundies white washed tombs, a brood of vipers and children of hell, oh yea and calling Pete the devil ?.

You are just as sensitive on the political forum you are always on too. It seems that when anyone disagrees with you, you resort to claiming you are being hated on.

Why, the list reads EXACTLY like characteristics of the god man wrote of in the OT...is that who you are talking about?

The lies, false accusations, and attacks continue.....it never ends.

If mystic, pcamps, zthatsman, nate, troutdide, Dewdrop etc want to gang up and accuse me of something, then please provide some proof to back up your accusations. If you can't, you are simply proving my point.

It is not surprising so many are stepping up to defend and justify insults and personal attacks, and not surprisingly they are the very same people who pretend to promote "agape love". What they bring here is the EXACT OPPOSITE of agape love.

And let's not pretend this is about disagreement about beliefs, because it is not. I stepped in to point out the ugliness in pcamps posts and he was not even talking to me. I am simply sick and tired of seeing the disrespect and loathing he, and many others here show towards posters who are here only to share their faith,

Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Luckily no one behaves like this in the real world. It is easy to insults strangers in the safety of the internet, but the real world has a way of weeding out such behavior.
