I also think it is baiting. It goes like this:
A: You are a ****ing ******er that *******s every night with *******s. You digusting ******ing pile of ****.
B: What the hell are you babbling about?
A: Moderator!!! B used the word hell!
Moderator: B, this is your one and final warning....
TOL is a place to foster a conservative belief, but as long as you tow the party line, you can be sexually graphic, use innuendo, be vulgar, arrogant, rude, etc.
If you don't tow the party line, and question these tactics, you are held to a higher standard.
I see the latter as a blessing. Better to have strictness applied to you, than to have free reign, digging oneself into the pits of hell, and even being lent a hand.
Mathew 15:
17"Anything you eat passes through the stomach and then goes out of the body. 18But evil words come from an evil heart and defile the person who says them. 19For from the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, all other sexual immorality, theft, lying, and slander.
Buddhism teaches that one should have purity of thought, because from there, will come purity of speech, and purity of action. But if one has filthy thoughts, it will come out of their mouth in unpure speech, and hateful action.
I am convinced that while posters such as julie21 have clearly stated that they oppose homosexuality, they are still attacked for the rebuke of not acting Godly by false christians who choose their behavior over the rebuke, who do not reflect on what they are rebuked for. Their goal is to maintain their hostility at the world, to bring discord over peace, to exhalt themselves over sinners, to justify hatred and contempt. Any challenge to that causes a threat, and the person is therefore attacked, called a fool or crazy, called "too nice," or any other lie that falls off their tongue. And that should be expected. Darkness does not like to be brought into the light.
In a world that is cold and selfish, should one ever worry about being "too loving"? Are we all so full of love, that we act overly loving? Is it possible to be overly loving?
If anything, this place shows me the cruelty of the world, some of the sickness of the church, and the pockets of goodness that can be found amongst it. It strengthens those who suffer for righteousness sake, challenges you to turn to the bible to see when verses are being misused by the saved, and to really seek The Light. For all of those things, I am very grateful.

I am seriously thinking of changing my diagnosis to demonic possession instead of sociopathy

Someone asked if Homosexuality was designed.
I said, "well, if God is a "designer", and was male, and only made one male originally, who knows....
It was a stupid joke.
I apologize if you were offended.
I don't think God is gay. In fact, since I see God as asexual, I really don't think he is sexually attracted to either male nor female, because otherwise, he would have a really hard time getting a date, not having a body and all.
But my apologies for something that offended you. It was simply a joke, and I'm sorry.

You may very well wonder, but the fact is if I haven't seen it, then I cannot rebuke. Simple as that. So I do actually know what is the 'better' thing to do, but I question that you yourself are not exhibiting this same good judgement within your recent posts. Any others you might have issue with, feel freee to bring to my attention, though I have my doubts that any are of this nature. 'Obnoxious' remarks are not the same as you have been posting lately Rimi, but as I said, feel free to point the posts of BB'S out that you believe are as odorous as yours and I will comment.
If I had seen the post previously BB, it would have offended me as well, but I am certainly glad that you have seen the error of your way in this Beanie and have apologised publically for it. I have faith that you will do so no more.beanieboy said:

Sure, a joke. But you say you apologize IF I'm offended? I think I made that clear. I don't put much stock in what your thoughts on God are as they would be offensive to His Person. I wanted to believe you were sincere with your apology but then I remember the sick comments you make about me and my "history" . . . Those were just jokes too? Someone gets molested and you think it's a joke. Guess that means you don't have any problem with the two known pedophiles working the fag parade in CA. I just don't believe your apology.
