"Bible Thumper is a disrespectful label unbelievers placed on people who actually think the Bible says what it means and means what it says."

It's obvious how I meant it. But apparently you'd rather cause strife here rather than simply address the matters raised.

I did address the issue. The issue is that you applied a worldly, disrespectful and essentially meaningless label to Christians.

That is your privilege.

It is mine to call you out on it.

Thanks for the post, Faith. You have been missed.

As to whether being called a “Bible Thumper” is a term of disrespect by non-believers, well, they are already saying much worse. I’m afraid that if I shrank now from simply being called a Bible Thumper, I might shrink from what they will bring on next. It will be more than disrespectful words.

I kind of like the idea of a Bible Thumper’s Forum.
