And it does anger me when atheists and the LGBT community are destroying our religious freedom in a country built on religious freedom.
My point is that you pretend to not be obsessed and you also pretend your preacher never talks about it.

So, why ô why does the subject comes in MOST (incredible majority) of your posts (well, except the ones in the relationship forums )

No, not stalking you, just a very good memory. Didn't have to check Finn because I remember his posts on other subjects. You ? Nothing exception religion (and gays of course), some little in relocation and a little in relationship. With you, i just (quickly) needed to make sure of MY memory as I couldn't believe it (my own memory). Turns out it was worse. In ALL forums, you nearly only talk about that subject.

So, now that I've answered, can you explain why it's of no interest to you or your preacher or your life BUT still spend most of your time here arguing about it ?

(and please let go of the "side" thing, I don't have sides, well, maybe search for truth side)

Yes, I agree


People were saying that Jeff said that Robin Williams was gay, I was pointing out that he did not say that.......




We all misunderstand each other, what I see in the scriptures is that the Christian is held to a higher standard because they are to represent God on earth

the point of the scriptures is misunderstood, it’s not about looking at each other’s perceived “sins” while excusing our own because we say “I believe in Jesus” so I’m saved

I'm the one who mis-said it and apologized

Yet, how would that come in an argument being made about not well adjusted gay people who pretend to be okay but clearly don't know much about themselves ?

We see it all over these forums that the arguments tend to take over, and it gets personal, and the focus goes away from actually understanding what the scriptures are about

I honestly don't care about the scriptures. I care to act right, that people around me act right and wish for everyone to. Not easy, for anyone. So, whatever means it might take for some, I don't care.

Just act, feel and be right, which mostly means : acting, feeling and being loving, helpful and kind.

It is stalking. My posting history has NOTHING to do with the topic at all (then again, I'm not sure what the purpose of this thread is anymore other than serving as a punching bag for those who don't support immorality). But it's this kind of judgmental crap that does grate on me. How do you know I'm not spending the majority of my time posting on other website forums about different topics? You don't. I'm a lot more active on reddit and spend most of my time discussing fun stuff like pro wrestling, finger-style guitar, blu-rays, movies etc..

I've debated plenty of other topics, and as I pointed out, I walked away from this thread. I was mature enough to let YOUR SIDE have the last word in. BUT NOOOOOO, your buddies had to dig it back up and take more shots at us. So guess what, expect me to fight back against the lies, the attacks, the just daily garbage thrown at us for simply trusting and believing in God's Word.

As I pointed out before, it is a common tactic for YOUR SIDE to turn the conversation against the poster. I will stop using YOUR SIDE as soon as YOUR SIDE stops calling us fundies. It's being hypocritical to gripe about us using labels when doing the same to us.

Jeff seems like a really well adjusted guy here, doesn't he?
