Tribalism is their biggest problem, not the Great Satan U.S

While I don't disagree, the same thing could be said of the Europeans, if not now, then certainly in 1900, or even 1930. To some extent tribalism is a human trait. If we don't have ethnic differences, we make 'em up, think Japan and Korea. Or the Hatfields and the McCoys for that matter, albeit on a smaller scale. Or New Yorkers and Texans, the list is endless.

So the God of the OT isnt the God of the New?

Time for a little Theology 101? Ever hear of the Incarnation?

Ever think that God was "sending a message" when He took on human flesh and human nature?

Do you recall the words of Jesus Christ, "Ye have heard it said...(quotes OT)...but I say ..."

Do you understand the signifigance of the rending of the veil of the Temple on Great and Holy Friday?

Do you?

So you think that He took on human form because He was wrong in Eden,and in Sodom,and when He drown the Egyptian soldiers,and when he killed the enemies of the Jews? He was acting poorly ,so He decided to completely elimate the part of Him that is justice?

So realizing His Character was flawed he decided to change it? Do you think He ceased to be a God of justice?

That rent curtain gave us the right to approach the throne of God directly,no Saints,no priests,no icons.No more seperation beteen God and man..no more altar rail...is that what you mean?

Such a shame in any case but, that is completely off topic.

Exactly--it's completely off topic. This thread is about feeding Afghans (not just the children) who aren't involved in the conflict. But instead of sticking to the subject, we're now talking about adoption, arguing about the Bible, talking about raping one's daughters, etc. The subject is food aid to Afghans. Let's stick to the subject at hand.

[RnMomof7]

But I don't have to agree with the hatefilled, inane verbage of a woman who professes the only right adoption is not a foreign adoption.

I never said that..I just will not throw flowers at your feet..you wanted a family and you built the family you wanted..no sainthood.

[don-o]

So you think that He took on human form because He was wrong

Nope.

To show us a better way than drowning Egyptians.

A harder way, but a better way. God said that.

All American FReepers have busted the terrorist cell! Somebody Flag JimRob. RAJ is cracking, more examples

OH NO you tell me how if it is "for the children" why American Black and handicapped babies will not do..they have to be "adorable" Asian or white foreign children..that is prejustice

I dont disagre with the practice..but I also dont hand out Halos for it People want a family they adopt the kind of family they want.****

prejustice, disagre, dont, Halos, the "people want a family" line."

We've smoked RAJ out, folks! Et tu, FReepers

You know...blame the liberals for all the children born to other children. Blame the lack of morals in this country for all the poor babies born to drug addicts and men and women unable to take responsibilities for their actions.

But don't give me the adopt here vs there stuff. Because our grand attorneys have a great monetary benefit for making it so difficult to adopt here. That are wonderful racists don't want a white person adopting a black child...because they would be reared in the wrong culture.

I for one am glad that their are those who are willing to be foster parents or adoptive parents to any child. No matter if that child was born here or not.

And hatefilled...hmmm I always think it's loving to tell someone that maybe they should join the rapist in attacking their daughter. Yeah Right...not hatefilled spew.

We've smoked RAJ out

Forgive me, but who is this RAJ who we have smoked out?

[nancetc]

But darling you are the goddess of assumption...remember I'm a liberal, racist...I'm just trying to learn your strategy which is to assume about other people. You are so wonderful at it and so Christian I certainly want to participate in your lovingkindness.

[nancetc]

;) I wondered the same and then figured the RAJ reference is to Rn.

[RnMomof7]

Some who disagree with you are easily swayed by their emotions. Some have outright forgotten about clean, well fed North Vietnamese children who killed many Americans when they forgot for a moment they were fighting a war and instead of trusting NO ONE, let down their guard.

I am old enough to remember the children killing our kids..I also see the children of Palestine hurling rocks and carring guns

It is a different culture..male adulthood is somewhere around 15 or so..I am fearful for our men and our boys,just because I remember Nam

[don-o]

The issue here as in all war this is not a "personal enemy" this is a national enemy and as noted in Acts it is an enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?

Now you need to cite chapter and verse to show how Christians are directed to classify personal and national enemies.

S'il vous plais.

Allah simply means "The God". And He is the same God that spoke to Moses on the mountain.

No way. The God of Moses led the Jews to their promised land, Israel. The god of the Muslims demands the Jews be driven out of Israel and preferably slaughted. Not the same God, but the opposite of the God of Moses.

If you adopt a minority or handicapped child adoption fees are paid by the State,and they will cover all medical expenses..money isnt the issue..we have friend that have built their family with 3 racially mixed kids..and it is a beautiful family.You adopted the family you wanted..

[RnMomof7]

That is done in the Old Testament..That is unless you think God woke up one day and decided He ..The God of Creation had made a series of mistakes and need a new image

All the NT parables and teachings are about individual wrongs

I've been meaning to post this for a long time, and no better time than now.

Don't think for a second I don't spend hours a day in prayer for our own wonderful American children and soldiers and the families of the victims of the 9/11 attacks. Did you lose someone that day? Because I did. I LIVE in Arlington, less than one mile from the Pentagon. I was scheduled to be on Flight 77, for crying out loud! Don't ever think or say that I don't care about Americans, because it is horribly, horribly untrue. I simply ask God to give me the strength and grace to love, forgive, and pray for those who persecute me. It's only Christian.

How many kids did St. RN adopt? Oh, none. She's not handing out halos for adopting. Oh, wait, if you adopt a black handicapped child you get a halo. Too bad, all I've got is some snot on my shirt. But that's good enough for me!

[lsucat]

I'm starting to think she enjoys it.
