ROTFLMAO!!!

You know, you'd think that the folks here who claim to know the scriptures would remember this one:

2Ti 2:14ff Remind them of this, and charge them before the Lord to avoid disputing about words, which does no good, but only ruins the hearers. Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. Avoid such godless chatter, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness, and their talk will eat its way like gangrene.

If they were really acting scripturally, they'd act as Jesus commanded his disciples in Mark 6. But arguing is so much fun....

I feel for you guys. You all have to take it as much, if not more, than we Catholics do...

Yeah, these are the so-called Christians to whom Ghandi seems to have been referring when he said:
“I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.”
and
“If it weren’t for Christians, I’d be a Christian.”~

They certainly don’t seem to emulate Christ in their rantings about the Christianity of others.

~”I feel for you guys. You all have to take it as much, if not more, than we Catholics do...”~

Perhaps, but sympathy’s not necessary. I’m sure you become stronger and more knowledgeable in your faith every time you defend it. Same way for us.

The people we’re talking about, though, are always on the attack. They may become very good at attacking other faiths, but they are never forced to examine their own religious convictions. The result? We get stronger, they remain weak.
