My question is why do these religion threads always turn into a snark-fest? Riddle me that. Then look internally.
Good question. I keep searching for God — but when I come to Free Republic all I find is infighting and claims of doctrinal purity. Who can be right when everyone is wrong? No wonder conservatives can’t win.
This fighting on doctrinal issues is not helping. He said: “Go and find out what this means, I desire mercy, not sacrifice. For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
And Hosea also included: “For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings.”
Yeah, I wouldn’t search for God among all this conflict, although occasionally on FR, a genuinely good theological debate occurs.
