So please, tell me what is insufficient or missing from the bible! Just one little truth!

I don't believe either of your "accepted" writings to be infallible. Ask him.

I am wondering where is that soul, who reminded Freepers, he was so refreshing and sobering years ago who talked about “Clean Hands?”

The "Ugly" part of it yes. The violence and anti-patriotism, haven't seen it yet. But it works for "ugly." Thanx for asking. :-)

Do Mormon kids strap on bombs and walk into Restaurants?

So you are saying "yes, the behavior of the anti-mormonism posters on FR is just as ugly as the behavior of the Westboro Baptist Church members"?

It's ok, I just want to be clear.

Now, about your ridiculous leap. Nobody here has ever said anything remotely like you said about Mormons stapping on bombs. You said " Wouldn't that be kinda like ya'll comparing Mormon beliefs to that of Muslims".

There are some Muslim beliefs that are similar to Mormon and Christian beliefs. I think it would be interesting to study that, instead of going off all half-cocked and deciding you were being labeled a terrorist.

Comparing religious beliefs to deplorable ideologies is to be expected on "open" Religion Forum threads.

Specific comparisons applied to groups of believers - e.g. that a group is like Westboro, Islam or Nazism in their beliefs or tactics - should also be expected on "open" Religion Forum threads.

However if the comparison is made to an individual Freeper, personally, that is "making it personal" and not tolerable at all. It is flame bait.

Having said all that, Godwin's Law says that once an internet correspondent raises Nazi or Hitler comparisons in the debate, he has bottomed out and the one so accused can declare himself the winner.

I apply it more generally in that people do not throw spitwads when they have ammunition. If your opponent has been so reduced to childish tactics, declare yourself the winner and walk away.

Ad hominem attacks are also logical fallacies. When a poster has attacked the messenger instead of the message, the one so attacked can declare himself the winner on that basis and walk away victorious.

This reminds me of those children I knew in my childhood that got off on endlessly stirring the pot contention!

Do you think that is a Christian trait of Jesus?

Sometimes would it not be best to stop and think “ what would Jesus do?”

The Holy Ghost on probation?

LOL!

That's really preposterous, and a pronouncement from just a few years ago.

A half-way house with an ankle bracelet?
