Jazzns states his beliefs
In post Message 75, Adminbuz chastises Jazzns for stating a belief that he feels is insulting. I don't see how this post is insulting. In the quoted passage some very important parts were left out. Jazzns bolded the word stereotypical...
quote:
I have learned on this forum what I believe to be the absolute spiritual, emotional, and intellectual bankruptcy of the stereotypical fundamentalist position
He also add an edit (done before any replies I might add) that reinforced this.
quote:
{ABE: really wanted to emphasize stereotypical. There are many on this board who might be considered fundamentalist who do not elicit such a response in my mind although they may have a tendency to lean in that direction.}
The topic of the thread is "Has EvC changed your beliefs?" Jazzns is stating his viewpoint. He differentiates between all fundamentalists and those stereotypical ones that show the views he is critiquing
If you don't feel that you show you are spiritually, emotionally, or intellectually bankrupt then what do YOU have to be upset about? If you don't feel that you espouse hate and racism what is there to feel insulted about.
This is much better than when certain Christian members tell other members that they "aren't real Christians" or when members come on and tell everyone that they are going to hell.
