BAH!I thought you claimed that they mean nothing?
Interesting point.
So fab, do words mean nothing with respect to everything, or only with respect to God?
And if they only mean nothing with respect to God, why did Jesus promise to send us the Holy Spirit to remind us of those meaningless words? Wouldn’t that have been a waste of God’s time? Not to mention the source of so much conflict?
BTW, slander is only slander if the statement is proven false, and that requires, dare I say it, words. So if all words are meaningless, slander can’t happen, and it can’t be disproven either. You will eventually have to decide which way you want it, because you can’t have it both ways. Sorry.
Peace,
