I was mocking Mateo (see post 276). I don't actually believe that we should take up arms and shoot down homos in the streets.beanieboy said:Proud "Enyartian Homo-killer"???
Uh, I just saw that.
Care to expound on that?
When did Christianity start converting back to the Inquisition?
Dread Helm said:You have a screwed up definition of a cult then.
So don't argue then. From a purely argumentative point of view, mocking someone does less for your case that continuing in vain OR dropping the argument. Mocking someone because there is nothing left to say is childish behavior.Lighthouse said:No, it's because people ignore the point. There's no reason to argue if it will serve no purpose.
You've just repeated your claim as if that will convince me. I think that if 'without cause' was connected with the whole verse, you'd see it in the rest of the verse. Now you'll claim I'm ignoring your point.The clause 'without cause' is connected to the entire verse.
Yet a few pages later you claim:Lighthouse said:Mocking is compassionate when you use it to mock wickedness.
So do you mock out of love, Lighthouse? Do you mock out of compassion? If not, how do you fit mocking someone under "Love one another" and "Love your enemies".Lighthouse said:I don't call people dumbass to mock wickedness.
Listen, Christ, being God, knows who the fools are. He knows who the hypocrites are. He knows every man's heart. You are not Christ. When you call someone a fool, it is because you believe they are a fool, not necessarily because they are a fool. You're only human too, Lighthouse. You undoubtedly hold to beliefs that are wrong. We all do. Jesus says in Matthew 12:37 "For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned." Why take the chance? Are you so arrogant as to assume that you are absolutely right about everything, and are thus justified to mock anyone who has a differing opinion? Be careful.It is not wrong to call a fool a fool.
You say that God forms everyone. How then, do you find it acceptable to mock one's intellectual capacity? Do you mock God? He created everyone the way they are. From ignorance to brilliance, God is the author.Lighthouse said:It was not until you were conceived, that He knew you, and began to form you.
Having been there and done that also, Granite, I'd say I actually know what I'm talking about too. :think:granite1010 said:Having been there and done that, ninth grade, I'd say I actually know what I'm talking about.

Exchange the word "homo" in DH's sig with some particular group you'd find offensive to have killed and you'll get fool's point.Shimei said:Whatever you say..ah...fool.

BTW, you might consider toning down your sig... even the Bush Justice Dept. doesn't openly support murdering tax-paying citizenry based on their sexual orientation yet.

Internet monitoring software doesn't discern intent very well, just content...Dread Helm said:See post 282.
That's not how I'm trying to appear. I am mocking Mateo for calling me an Enyartian Homo Killer.beanieboy said:Well, it makes you appear as a neo-nazi.
Mateo said:Ah, a thousand pardons. You're talking about that little get-together where Jerry and someone else niggled over the fine points of Dispy doo. I forgot.
If you want to use it as an opportunity to mock me or those I respect knock your self out.Mateo said:While we're on the subjects of bee bee's hurled at battleships.. Robot fella...did you notice that when trying to explain your favorite flavor of Dispensationalism you referred a wouldbe convert to the words of The Bob...
I think he already did... :chuckle:deardelmar said:...If you want to use it as an opportunity to mock me or those I respect knock your self out.
