well that's what people get for holding onto things instead of just dropping them

I agree that makes it more annoying.

That's the point. It's not right, I tell you! Not right!

i say just drop the subject all together and just work on making yourself a better person

Now buttons how can I do that when I have already reached the peak of my perfection??

instead of complaining about being attacked....

I guess now would be the time to tell you, I have a God-given right to complain about being attacked.

but for some, that's just too difficult i suppose

I'm just not in the mood today I suppose. After the laughing Christian thread I got my dander up

now I'll have to go take another to get all smoooth again.

no, but beyotching about it isnt going to help anyone

i'd consult the Bible

It's a God given right to complain? I put a question to you: "What would Yeshua do?"

Like kiwimac said, some christians love to go around attacking others & telling them how they should live. It seems latley that people are attacking back & they don't like it. Yes, every belief has been jumped on.. maybe it's just thire turn.

Claims by anyone of having a "true" ideology, when coupled with a refusal to listen to or consider the perspectives behind others' expressions, are all the same kind of pain to me.

nah, maybe it's NO ONES turn, maybe we should just not make an issue out of it and realize that everyone goes through similar chit

so have I. It doesn't make it okay.

But aside from that, telling people that they are under the sway of evil demons and must "believe" in the sacred words to be saved from an eternity in Hell is no less inconsiderate.

Go tell it to Jerry Falwell or somebody, it's not done here much. And never by ME.

There's a fine line that depends entirely on the perspective. The Christian accusing everyone else of being deluded sinners will always subjectively believe that he or she is extolling rather than attacking. One might have a difficult time seeing the problem if one agrees with the essential sentiment being expressed (even if one knows to be more tactful in presenting such extolling/attacking ).

it's really not that hard to differentiate between the two
