Damnable Heresy
The topic spirited introduced was that of Linda Kimballs, which included in the title Heresy, besides Falling Stars and the Spirit of Evolution, upon which Miz Kimball used to launch a rather wide-ranging discussion, and upon which spirited then amplified. Linda also began her article with 1 John 2:22, so already we had a rather large smorgasbord from which to choose.
I will not speculate why you choose Heresy and not Falling Stars about which to argue, but I was responding to BroJoeKs post (#1671), specifically his statement In fact, there is no -- zero, zip, nada Judeo-Christian tradition of constitutionally limited republics, guaranteeing freedom of religion, speech, press, etc. Virtually all of Christendom then remained under the rule of centralized monarchies in alliance with their official state religions, whether those were the Catholic Church, Orthodox or Protestant.
Way back in post #19 I inquired What are you talking about? To which you responded in #20, The article, which is supposedly the subject of discussion. I can only conclude you mean but only that which you intend to control. That is not how we roll in JRs shire.
Ive already informed you I dont look to eliminate trolls (I let them eliminate themselves). Likewise I dont pound sand and I try not to drill dry holes. Which word did you not understand?
