What's Worse: Climate Change, Terrorism or Fake News

[Father Heathen]

LOL, the western definition of a word has nothing to do with my religious views.

Nice try, but no cigar.

Oh, so it's simply semantics and thus completely arbitrary and trivial. But again, you lost so it's moot.

Exactly what you deserve

...to be like Scrooge McDuck?

By not taking appropriate action when it would have been easy, and when it would have not been too late; or worse, pressing for anger, fear, and even violence.....on any issue like climate change, drug addiction, ‘the war on drugs’, immigration, on income disparity, on access to safe abortions, on the need for war or to not go to war, etc....
Probably tens of millions of lives over the next few decades. Minimum.

I see you point but it is, at the moment, guesswork of worse case scenarios. Steps to combat global warming are taking place, small steps that without fake news would be bigger steps.

However we still have global warming and people have died and will die in the future with or without fake news, its just a matter of degree.

The fake news on immigration is of grave concern, the uk right used it to fight for brexit, it has already caused violence i do see increased poverty and deaths because of what i consider a bloody stupid choice.

You are misled. Please stop trying to mislead others.
How did Jesus view the Old Testament?

“We could cite many reasons for the Old Testament being God’s Word, but the strongest argument comes from the Lord Jesus himself. As God in human flesh, Jesus speaks with final authority. And his testimony regarding the Old Testament is loud and clear.

Jesus believed that the Old Testament was divinely inspired, the veritable Word of God. He said, ‘The Scripture cannot be broken’ (John 10:35). He referred to Scripture as ‘the commandment of God’ (Matthew 15:3) and as the ‘Word of God’ (Mark 7:13). He also indicated that it was indestructible: ‘Until Heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass away from the law, until all is accomplished’ (Matthew 5:18).”

All true. What did he mean by ¨till all is accomplished " ? Obviously, you have no idea of the fundamental pillar of Christianity. I suggest you get on the internet and try and find it.

Yes...you definitely should.

You are ignorant of the teachings of both the old and new testaments. You cherry-pick so that you may judge and hate, while claiming false superiority. Seeing the bark of only one tree, yet failing to notice the grand forest provided by God and the example of his Son.

Come back when you can make them proud, through your compassion, peacefulness, forgiveness, and understanding, as are the teachings of Christ.

Where am I on the list?

I don't think they even classify you as an American now. What did you do?

Ah, the name calling begins.

Lets see. Since you contend that we are under the law of the first covenant I assume you isolate the women of your household who are menstruating ? Of course, you follow the dietary restrictions. Lets not forget all of the prescribed holidayś and feasts. You no doubt preach that every boy child must be circumsized on the 8th day. Leviticus and Deuteronomy must be extremely important to your study time.

I don´t cherry pick. I am sure you have heard of Luther, in general I adhere to his teachings, sola scriptura, sola fide. So, I guess if he cherry picked in your mind, I can see why you might think I do.

I hate no one.

I won´t call you any names, I try to avoid doing this.

Nor will I judge you, as you have me, that is way above my pay grade.

Superior to anyone ? not hardly.
