From your post #233:

You are aware of the fact that I am ignoring your posts, thus your posts to me - especially considering their tone - can only be construed as a provocation

I quote from your Post #190:

But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more [than others]? do not even the publicans so?

Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. Matthew 5:43-48

And this from the same post:

Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law (like an Admin Moderator) before the unjust, and not before the saints? Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?

If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church. I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren? But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.

Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law (like an Admin Moderator) one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather [suffer yourselves to] be defrauded? Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that [your] brethren. – I Cor 6:1-8

So, what's the scoop? Where you just kidding? How come you "Christians" are so thin-skinned?

You and betty boop have certainly convinced me!

Hank

And so you conclude, Hank, that Alamo-Girl violates this law merely by suggesting that she prefers peace and quiet to the din and disorder of people who seem to enjoy making pointed, personal attacks on her?

Because she wishes for peace and quiet doesn't entail the necessary conclusion that she wishes anyone ill. I feel certain she prays for all the people to whom you have come rushing in indignant defense. I feel certain she prays for you too, Hank.

You really do enjoy casting Christians into bad light whenever and wherever possible, Hank. That's an observation, not mere conjecture. I wonder: Why do you do that?

well Hank, I was on an evo thread tending to my Father's business when Alamo showed up and invited, apparently, just the evolutionists, although she did say all views were welcome. All but the Christian viewpoint, OTHER than hers, it appears now, though. She wants a forum where her ideas, and they are not biblical, by any means, to be spouted, without criticism of any kind. If you do correct them, then she pulls out the moderator hammer. You have been with me and others of us on the religious threads. Have you ever heard of such nonsense? Or of anyone there, especially of anyone profesing to be a believer, of out and out refusing to defend their position against any and all comers? She is I guess, someone important who just cannot ever be challenged or there will be repercussions.

Maybe I will be frightened off. What do you think, Hank?
