you're correct...."baiting" IS what spawned this thread. but not in the way you assume. MY intention wasn't to "bait" anyone.
i can easily see how you might misinterpret it that way. but you're mistaken. not my intent at all. my intention was to point out MY view.....which is quite simply that anyone who wraps themselves up in the bible (or the koran or whatever) should walk the walk and not merely talk the talk.
again ...IN MY VIEW, it's completely against MY understanding of christianity to sow seeds of discord...to daily look for targets to strike out against, and to use your bit, vamp...to try to BAIT others w posts not meant to inform, but instead to thump those w different views on the nose.... to put them in their place and try to get under their skin. and that's some sad, sad $hit.
unlike others here who take great pride in tossing off one bible quote after another....i don't know, how many times is the word "idiot" used in the bible? did jesus regularly refer to others as "idiots" or "lacking intelligence"???? i think not.
as i see it....this daily laundry list and litany of regurgitated cut and pasted wacko ultra right wing swill... it's not posted w the motivation to inform. (frankly, i'm surprised anyone might be so gullible as to swallow that pretense).
instead it's clearly (to me) the pathetic folly of someone w an axe to grind looking for targets to call "idiots".... someone who feels better about themself, their vaulted, bigotted, and bloated views... and their position as an expert on "god's words" striking out at those deemed inferior.
i remain unimpressed, and instead i'm put off by this level of smug superiority, intolerance, and need to bait those holding different views. all NON christian traits.... as i understand christianity.

pls see above.... so, you too believe that everything that's posted on wackjobconservative.com is the Gospel Truth and you accept it as such, because...why???? not spreading "lies"??? harrumph.
of course he's spreading lies....and inuendo....gossip......all kinds of nasty unsubstantiated propaganda. mostly these hatchet job "educational" and "informative" reguritation threads are nothing more than opinions... when they're not something far worse.....outright distortions of the facts.
and yes, there are those on the left who do that too.....that's not the point and is an another argument for another day.
my point....again, that kind of nastiness spread around here on a daily basis ... it's MY view that there's no intent to "inform" or "educate" in any of that cut and paste drivel...instead it's merely smack down fodder to put the "ignorant"...the "idiots" in their place.
and shame on anyone who wears their christianity as a badge who misbehaves that way.

you say tomato...i say avocado.
to me they simply come off as the actions and postings of a petty, bitter, small, and dark hearted soul who spends too much time judging others to have any time left for the love you speak of.
