Rampant narcissism and completely blind to it, as are all true narcissists.
Nope, it's always about shifting the conversation towards a personal attack. My name should never come up in the discussion. The topic is the Orlando gay massacre, not jeffyville. But that's the game you play because you have no argument. I shouldn't be surprised. A spiritually dead person will speak death and anger. If I had dared called anyone gay a waste of oxygen, I can only imagine the furious outrage. But do it to me, and it's perfectly fine. The hypocrisy is stifling.

Tsk, Trout. You called someone a waste of oxygen? That's not nice. Had he just suffered the devastating impact of a horrific and senseless act of murderous violence? Was he reeling with pain and grief and worry at the time?

Grow up Jeff. Please, and sincerely, for your own sake and others, grow up, look beyond yourself, and nurture that grain of kindness and compassion that is in you, somewhere.

Jeff , it seems you will never get that people respond to you the way you do because of the way you post here . It's a reaction to your never ending denigration of them and comparing them to pedophiles, people who have sex with animals, child molesters, and people who hate God . Is calling you a waste of oxygen over the top ? Yes , it is . But so are your posts , and people simply tire of your ongoing hate filled insults , and respond in angry ways to that from you .

I don't expect you to be willing to try and understand why you get this treatment , but I've tried a number of times to help you understand why you have the reputation you have around here .

You are a walking , talking example of what Gandhi meant in his quote about liking Christ, but not liking Christians, who seem so unlike the Christ they claim to follow .

You and your friends treat every single Christian who does not support homosexuality with the same hateful disrespect, mockery and insults. Behind the scenes, people have told me that they had to leave this forum because of the vile treatment given to Christians. And I've received quite a few reps for my posts in this exact thread so you can stop with the "everyone is against you" facade.


For once, just admit that it is not about me. I speak the truth, and that angers you so you have to vent it against me personally. I don't care what you think. Your opinion is just words on a computer screen. The thing that does grate on me is the this pompous self righteous postering and justification for treating others with extreme disrespect. I would never tell someone that they are a waste of oxygen. NEVER. That is about as low as you can go, but here you try to justify it, and that is truly sickening.

I challenge you to find a single post where I have said gay people are just like pedophiles or bestiality. A post where I made a direct comparison. No, I only compared situations.

Can you tell me when was the last time a bible believing fundie got murdered for being a bible believing fundie?

No Jeff , we do not . We point out the stupidity of those posts which make comparisons between homosexuality and bestiality and pedophilia, which you know you have done even if you want to claim you were just comparing situations, and who fight for the right to take rights away from gays simply because they are gay and your religion opposes that . I don't care one bit if you think homosexuality is a sin, as long as you don't try to abuse people or take away their rights because of your views .

Two other points . I never said everyone is against you, and I admitted calling you a waste of oxygen is over the top. So why do you continue to post like this ? Does being honest not mean anything to you ?

Quit spending 90% of your time whining and complaining about how people treat you . Grow up , and quit making Christians look like a bunch of crybabies . As you said, it's not about you , so quit making every disagreement into a personal attack on you .

In all my time participating in this and other forums I have never met anyone even slightly comparable to you in the amount of whining you do about how posters treat you . Good grief dude , grow up .

Obviously, you never tire of being wrong.

Consistency such as yours is almost admirable.

Defending yourself after pages and pages on gay condemnation will get you nowhere. Try to understand that. Be the bigger person and put your money where your mouth is.
Likewise, I've never called a gay person a name, denied them entrance in my church, or done anything to discriminate against a gay person. I used to work at a call center and sat right next to a gay man. We had some great conversations. He knew I was an evangelical Christian, and he did not make a secret of his views. I considered him a friend.
Quote:
Christianity will be linked by the idea that gays are punished by God. There is nothing you can do about it but to make it clear you will stop discriminating against gays.
I've never stated that gay people are going to get a punishment that is any different than any other sin.

That you will not condone violence. That's the only choice for Christians is this situation.
You really ought to leave your presuppositions at the door. I'm willing to have an open mind, are you?
Quote:
I know it's uncomfortable but those tables have turned. Handle it with grace. People who don't share your belief are afraid of your beliefs now. Try and be understanding and reassuring. That's all. Defensive behavior just ruins your message.
Defensive behavior? I wouldn't defend myself if there weren't unjustified attacks.

In this case he isn't wrong. You made a dumb statement and now you're trying to say he's at fault.

You can not treat me and my brothers and sisters as less than then turn around and feign support when we are slaughtered.

I have a friend that was in that club and died. My sister knows two of the men killed. I still can not locate another friend that may have been there. And you are trying to make yourselves look holy with your concern. Yeah, you can take that faux concern and shove it, because we all know that next week you will be back to your old nasty tune.
There is a difference between arguing that you should not have the right to redefine marriage and wanting to kill you and your peers. I have had gay friends in the past and we did disagree on issues, yet we were still friends. I'm sorry if you're unable to separate your emotions from the discussion.
