For you amusment:

More accurately, the acronym "lol" should be redefined as "Lack Of Laughter."

The list of its meanings includes, but is not limited to:

1) "I have nothing worthwhile to contribute to this conversation."

2) "I'm too lazy to read what you just wrote so I'm typing something useless in hopes that you'll think I'm still paying attention."

3) "Your statement lacks even the vaguest trace of humor but I'll pretend I'm amused."

4) "This is a pointless acronym I'm sticking in my sentence just because it's become so engraved into my mind that when chatting, I must use the meaningless sentence-filler 'lol.'"

C’est la vie. :)

I'm sorry; but if certain folks make a claim that they are CONSERVATIVE, but the EVIDENCE shows they are NOT; would you expect a CATFIGHT to occur on FR?

I'm not talking about politics or FR. I'm talking about Christians, worldwide and in the US as well as on this forum, attacking each other. There are endless threads here with Catholics and Protestants assailing each other's faiths.

I believe the Mormons have serious doctrinal errors, but I'm not going to attack them. We have a common enemy; let's focus on fighting them rather each other.

[svcw]

I could agree wth you, but then we’d both be wrong.

[ottbmare]

Fine. Then let us be divided and conquered, because we were too busy debating doctrinal points to unit and fight our common enemy.

C’est la vie. :)

I didn't know you were french. :-) I hope that's ok with everyone in here.

I presume that Glenn Beck has not been invited to speak on religion in any specific sense. I imagine that Beck was invited for what he can contribute as a political conservative, who has a message about the state of politics in this country and a warning that keeping your eyes trained on God is our only hope for salvation.

I hope that's ok with everyone in here.

Thanx. Now I have Celtic Women songs in my brain. :-)

[trisham]

Just be glad that you don’t have this in your brain, as I have for the last week :):

The mod busted you for a WEEK??

BUMMER!

[Elsie]

No rest for the wicked...

Fruit flies like an apple.

I rest my case. lol.

Unfortunately; I doubt that the mouth will follow...

[Elsie]

We have a common enemy; let's focus on fighting them rather each other.

Not to worry; we will.

However; when MORMONs have the gall to say that THEY are Christian and spout their blather; it WILL be shown for the heresy it is.

[Elsie]

Hayley WHO?

[Elsie]

Now I am starting to YODEL!

I presume that Glenn Beck has not been invited to speak on religion in any specific sense.

And you presume that "religion" is hermetically sealed/compartmentalized because why? And you presume that if, per say, Beck talks about "religious liberties" that this is based in something other than the God of religion?

I presume that Glenn Beck has not been invited to speak on religion in any specific sense. I imagine that Beck was invited for what he can contribute...[re:] a warning that keeping your eyes trained on God is our only hope for salvation.

Can you say Contradiction? He's not been invited to speak about religion specifically, except perhaps to keep your eyes trained on God as the only hope for salvation? (Good thing training your eyes on God for salvation isn't anything in the "religious" category)

[Eva]

Your are right, that was an ambiguous statement because I was not referring to spiritual salvation. I was referring to political and economic salvation. Sorry.
