>>I’ve been a Freeper for 10 years, and I love Free Republic.<<
It was a rhetorical question. I can cursor over your name and see how long you’ve been here.
>>But there are two contingencies on here I cannot stand: the teacher-bashers, and the smug Christians who pop up on threads informing us all of who is going to Hell.<<
Maybe it would be a good idea to stay off these threads today. If you’re upset by people’s beliefs in God and the afterlife, you’ll blow a clot with these threads. It’s YOUR choice to be upset. Like militant gays who get in Christian’s faces, you are choosing to be offended and lashing out. Be calm and be happy.
Why is it that people go ad hominem (ie, “to the man”) and accuse the person of “judging/sending someone to hell” when we’re only stating the truth in God’s Word.
And it is stated REPEATEDLY that it is NOT through works that you receive your salvation. You are judged by your works and HOW you will spend eternity, but that is a separate issue from WHERE you’ll spend it.
Why don't you stay off these threads? She's got a right to express her opinion like anyone else. Unfortunately many times certain threads take on the air of a revivalist meeting.
