CANADIAN court agrees that BIBLE is HATE LITERATURE

I don't think we are in disagreement here, my friend. I just think the quote is most often taken way too far. We are called to make judgements of certain kinds, just not on the final disposition of a person's soul.

It may take good common-sense discernment to survive in law enforcement, but it also takes wise discernment to be a good Christian. There are so many wack-jobs out there.

You're completely right on all three points, IMHO!

Agreed!

"What we are talking about here is not what the Bible says, but the editorial comment made with the billboard."

Billboard? I thought the article was talking about an ad in a newspaper.

No matter which it was, such a thing does not incite violence in a heart where violence does not already exist.

If someone goes out and claims that they beat someone up because of this ad, they would have beaten someone up because their shoelace broke some other day.

[MEGoody]

"As far as I'm concerned that's what the ad purchaser was doing. Perverting the words of God for his own ends."

Ah, so you feel it is perfectly acceptable to judge the intent of someone's heart.

Then obviously, you won't mind someone judging your intents. You seem to be ignoring pretty clearly what God has said, and your intent seems to be to bear false witness.

The purchaser of the ad did not change the words of God as shown in the bible. Therefore, he obviously is not perverting them.

[k2blader]

Very well said.

[Luis Gonzalez]

That's right, a newspaper ad, sorry.

"If someone goes out and claims that they beat someone up because of this ad, they would have beaten someone up because their shoelace broke some other day."

Maybe, but as soon as this ad is used as a defense in Court, once again, "Christian intolerance" will be on trial.

[Luis Gonzalez]

I was not talking about a wordly Court, neither was the person I was responding to.

[Luis Gonzalez]

Dude, you reap what you sow.

You addressed a post to me with the full intent of entering into a flame war...well, you got one.

And you question my delivery?

[Luis Gonzalez]

I was *pinged* to this thread.

[Luis Gonzalez]

"I was just noting that someone else predicted you'd show up on this forum, and you did!"

Please note that the person who "predicted" my coming, then proceeded to flag me here.

Self fulfilling prophecy.

[Luis Gonzalez]

Let's say that we took the same ad, and instead of two men's hands inside that circle, I chose to place a white hand, and a black hand...then mader some sort of comment about how wrong inter-racial marriage is.

Would that be considered offensive?

[Luis Gonzalez]

Whyb is it that people who like to quote the Bible, seem to be all interpretative when in comes to passages that do not support their point of view, and literal when it suits them?

[Luis Gonzalez]

Let's see, the person you are addressing cuts and pastes a quote that accuses me of being a defender of alternative lifestyles, a blatant lie, but you can't see where I may have interpreted that he agreed with the charge?

None so blind as they who will not see.

But then again, I CAN see why you would find it perfectly fine for someone to come out of nowhere, and post an open personal attack at another poster (one who wasn't even involved on this thread), then feign being victimized.

It seems to be all the rage these days.

[PaxMacian]

No matter how you parse it, Caesar doesn't own my right to speak freely and certainly not to quote scripture.

[Sangamon Kid]

You addressed a post to me with the full intent of entering into a flame war...well, you got one.

And I suppose that is a good enough excuse for a proclaimed Christian to behave the way you do? If your crude remarks are an indication of the condition of your soul, then your Christianity is a very thin veneer indeed.

[Luis Gonzalez]

Christians my friend, aren't perfect. We're just forgiven.

[Luis Gonzalez]

Funny how you address my "crude remark" and ignore your out-and-out lie.

Veneer indeed.

[Sangamon Kid]

Funny how you address my "crude remark" and ignore your out-and-out lie.

A what "lie" would that be, sir? And, I will ask again, does my sin allow you to sin as well?

[Brian Allen]

<< God hates sin, just ask the bums of Sodom. >>

AND the soddomists of Gomorrah!
