Right after he fashioned a whip and drove the money lenders from His Fathers house? Or before He called the Pharisees empty tombs?
Mt 10: 34-35
"Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. For I have come to turn "a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter in law against her mother in law - a mans enemies will be the members of his household."
Terry's response is more understandable, and more normal. That is, if your child becomes a vocal, in-everyone's-face, promote-immorality activist.
Right, no one can assume the role of another.
I do now :0)
What you say you'd do is fine. But please understand that in the eyes of the left you too are a homophobe!
You mean Janet Reno wasn't born that way???
You mean ugly? Yes...
At the very time of that interview, she was living in living quarters provided by her Dad.
He never stopped talking to her. It was the other way around for some limited amount of time.
Her scholarship to Brown is being picked up by some gay-oriented foundation.
You really shouldn't believe what you read in the MSM, especially on things like this.
They just might have an agenda, you know?
Uhmmm...yeah.
So the fact that millions of children in schools are being subjected to homosexual indoctrination means nothing to you.
We're all sinners. Every one of us.
I have heard of the Taleban wing of the republican party. I would assume that the Taleban wing love the quotes you posted. However, those who focus on love and forgiveness question whether Jesus ever uttered such. It does not fit with the body of His teaching.
You are welcome, of course, to your ideology of condemnation and attack. But it is NOT whar Jesus taught. God is Love. You cannot change the truth of that.
"The Gay Agenda has no effect on me or my personal life. I enjoy sex with women and one woman in particular(my wife). If you don't like people having sex with the same gender, then don't do it! Simple as that."
Other logical statements:
If you don't like abortions, don't have one.
If you don't like meth freaks committing mayhem, don't snort (or whatever you do with in) meth.
If you don't like millions of illegal aliens swamping the countryside, don't - hmm, don't live where they're invading? Don't be one?
So what if the rest of the country is turning into Sodom and Gomorrah. Big deal if thousands of kids are being molested, seduced and/or recruited into the "gay" life. It's their problem, you're okay.
You can believe a very mixed up kid being manipulated by very clever leftwing activists under the glare of national media attention, or you can believe me. Your choice. Or, you can pretend to believe her, since you hate my guts. I don't care. Why don't you just leave them alone? It's Mary Cheney that's peddling a book.
I wasn't believing it - it's CBS afterall. :) I didn't, however, find anywhere denying she said it. It is quoted from her blog. Is that not true?
I think my #494 should answer your question.
Let's go over this again. Matthew is quoting Jesus, who quotes Isaiah. So you are saying that Jesus is God, correct?
You haven't found what Jesus said, so you don't know what He said. You found what Paul and John said.
You haven't found what Jesus said either. You found what Matthew said He said... If your quote from the lips of Jesus via the PEN of Matthew is valid, the quote from the lips of Jesus via the PEN of John is equally valid. If Jesus words are the words of God, they are that both in Matthew, in Mark, in Luke, and in John (and in Revelation, and in Acts, and ...) You must either allow both equal vallidity, or reject both as being the words of man...
Explain your logic in accepting the words of Jesus as the words of God when recorded for us by the pen of the Apostle Matthew, and rejecting the words of Jesus as the words of man when recorded for us by the pen of the Apostle John please.
Let's hope not. It would be pretty scary to think that a lot of Freepers would listen to their sixteen?,(junior in high school)tell them she broke up with her girlfriend,skipped school,ran a red light and crashed the family car and then babble about hoping she was going to be happy and loving her anyway.
I think or hope that most Freepers would act like parents with a modicum of intelligence and a sense of responsibility and after grounding her for the semester,taking away car privileges until graduation and forbidding intimate,exclusive relationships with boys or girls until she graduated from high school,tell her they will always love her but her behavior was not in her best interests or that of society. After that I would say "now lets sit down and talk about what we did that caused you to act like you're acting.Maybe we have been doing something wrong".
I'm not trying to pick at you by my last post. I just thought that if you had some written article or something denying that statement by Ms. Keyes, then by all means, let's post it! You want us to take your word for something, but.... you started the mis-trusting thing by your post #186. You were basically calling me a liar. I ignored it. Then you post a "garbage in garbage out" accusation at another poster because they read the same article I had. If you say you know the Keyes well enough to know what has been said is untrue, then fine, I'll except that. However, you need to do you part and stop insinuating the rest of us are liars.
Fine. If you would look at your child, that you have raised and loved since the beginning of their life, through all their tears and laughter and 'cast them out' because they're gay, that would be between you and your conscience. If I had to make that decision, I certainly know what my reaction would be...
