Regardless of your ability to appreciate it, this insult is VERY personal to me, yet it garners no admonition from you.
Only when I protest to a Protestant's promise to hammer me over the head does the moderation begin.
I don't know why I bother posting or even reading the Protestant (I mean, the Religion) Forum. All pigs are equal, but some it seems are more equal than others.
If you cannot abide by the most simple guideline of "discuss the issues all you want but do NOT make it personal" - then you should not post on the Religion Forum at all because "making it personal" incites flame wars, especially on the Religion Forum where so many arrive with giant chips on their shoulders!
2Co 13:5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
I'm thinking I'm not nearly as offensive as is this scripture to the folks that don't want to believe it...
I don't wield a hammer...Scripture like this is the hammer I wield...Search your catechism...This verse is probably referenced in there, right???
