*I can't believe I just wasted my time on this post*

I can't believe you just did either...(snicker)...
But, in any event, it's still a futile enterprise, marked with the scent of desperation, sputtering, and dodgy backtracking.
So you know how to use the "search" function here at FR: good for you. But, once again, you refuse to answer the question: just what kind of so-called "Christian" uses the phrase "Screw"--in any of it's scummy variants--in a public forum that can be seen by the world? Perhaps, in your vision of Christianity, such a legitimate question is seen as "whining"; I doubt that any genuine Pastor, Reverend, or Priest in the world would share that extraordinary view of how Christians are supposed to deport themselves in public with such language, which pretty much says it all. You can't answer the question, so you're reduced, pathetically, to digging up the questioner's previous posts and pinging others to share your impotent rage at having been so cornered, and made to look ridiculous.
However, in every post of mine you "researched" (in an attempt to change the subject) did you even *ONCE* run across a similar employment by *me* of such guttersnipe vocabulary? That'd be a big Negatory, as you well know...
You are now acting precisely like a liberal: you can't HONESTLY answer the simple question put to you without admitting my original premise, so you try to divert the subject elsewhere, and in a smarmy, juvenile fashion, at that. Once again, I ask you: how many so-called "Christians" have you ever run across who are comfortable with the use of the word "Screw" in daily--and highly public--discourse? Met many lately? Me neither...(snicker)...

Yes it does say it all. Thanks for pointing that out, Jovial Cad (cad: a man who acts with deliberate disregard for another's feelings or rights.)

You crack me up! LOL

It seems to me that the "questioner's" previous posts showed that the beam is in his/her eye.

...did you even *ONCE* run across a similar employment by *me* of such guttersnipe vocabulary? That'd be a big Negatory, as you well know...

Well, that may be true, but you are slamming someone that posted a thread written by SOMEBODY else for one word in it.
Screw. There I said it. I am not a Christian now.

But you have no problem supporting a Christian who "swears like a sailor?"

I haven't seen you professing to be a Christian, so I would surmize your *snickers* are OK.

... have you ever run across who are comfortable with the use of the word "Screw" in daily--and highly public--discourse? Met many lately? Me neither...(snicker)...

So "snicker" girl, are you comfortable with someone swearing like a sailor and demeaning others by snickering at them?

A Jovial Cad, I hope for this to be my final post to you.

I will answer your question: "how many so-called "Christians" have you ever run across who are comfortable with the use of the word "Screw"...."

Few that were "comfortable" using it. None of us are perfect, and I have heard Christians use all manner of foul language and have seen Just men fall very far. I myself am a flawed Christian, though I continue to try through His grace.

I don't however harp whine and nitpick at what is to me utter nonsense in light of the subject matter (Forest for Trees). If you think it's THAT important, badger the author of the thread for an answer; and I suppose an apology and severe penance.

The author of the thread seems to be a very sincere Pro-Lifer who wants to end the holocaust of abortion. He's new at FR and did not feel comfortable posting a vanity so quickly, so I offered to, because I agreed with the message and thought it needed exposure. And boy has it gotten exposure. I did not grill him about every word. Ending abortion is far more important than such stupid nonsense.

I prefer to try to be constructive with what I've got to work with and not tear other Pro-Lifers down because they're not perfect. I AM VERY FAR FROM PERFECT.

I now ask that you stop posting to me.

Goodbye and God bless
