The brothers need your support, approval, and forgiveness over in Brea ...
Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
10And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
11Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake among them, that I consumed not the children of Israel in my jealousy.
12Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:
13And he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an atonement for the children of Israel.
I'm not sure I see the relevance.
"That's ridiculous."
No, it's the plain truth.
"6) capitalism (by your 4000 year scale)
You're daft. Capitalism -- in one form or another -- has existed since the dawn of time. True, it required an Industrial Revolution to give it its present incarnation, but people have been buying and selling at a profit for eons."
What we call "capitalism" is nothing more than the way people naturally act when nobody has a gun to their heads.
Hey, I've got wheat, and I need milk. Joe has milk, and needs wheat. Maybe we can work something out.
Von Hayek offers some very lucid discussions of this in "Road to Serfdom" and "Fatal Conceit."
I wish someone would come out with an e-text version. I wore out two copies.
"Bless me, what do they teach them in these schools?"
You are blind to your idol's feet of clay. Dr. Keyes does not walk on water. In this instance, he played the hypocrite in his labeling and condemning another man's daughter when he kept silent about the mote in his own eye. That is hypocrisy.
The brothers in Brea need your moral support over here ...
We Believe....
Brea Congregational Church is a hospitality-based community of faith. We welcome all ... with unconditional acceptance regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, or any other basis of exclusion.
It looks like you fit right in ...
Wrong
It would be hypocrisy not to condemn the selfish hedonistic behavior in all homosexual addicts, not to mention rebuke the foolishness of their enablers.
Their predators are probably beyond redemption.
It's better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness.
I've never heard of them.
Wrong. He did NOT speak of his own daughter's "hedonism". His silence on that is what is so telling.
I've said what I think of both his action and his inaction. I'm through arguing w/you.
I heard about them on Free Republic. You seem to share their views. I thought you would defend them.
You would light a single candle and not lift a finger to defend the prey from the predators.
What other associations do you have that we ought to know about?
He cut offer her allowance and stopped financing her "hedonism." And you are doing exactly what ... ?
I would expect any homosexual activist or enabler to be a liar.
What other associations do you have that we ought to know about?
By the plural you do you mean you are representing a homosexual activist group ?
