Open Question For Jerry Falwell (and those who agree with him)

It so happens that prism_tempest is a personal friend of mine, the editing was merely to clear up a couple of spelling mistakes and highlight the quote he provided.I can understand your intellectual need to "police" administrators, but you really should get all of your facts straight before doing so, Parasomnium!

OK, Parasomnium, Im sorry! I was offended that you questioned me, but perhaps I DID need to add by edit in order to clarify my intent. You guys had no way of knowing that I knew Prism!Very well, lets carry on, shall we?

Oops. That leave me out! The only thing as bad as Jerry Fallwell is Jerry Springer! The flowers need water and some of the guys need a bath! The rain falls on the just and the unjust alike. Expecting it to produce some flowers and trees out of the dirt and manure on the ground!we have not had any good gay rights threads since Lam left!Maybe you should start one, Dan!

Taking responsibility for the decisions that I make! What a concept! I won't rule out the possibility of a spiritual "warfare" dynamic, as I have believed that it does occur.I WILL say: (For the record)1) We become the decisions that we make.2) God desires that we trust Him....but He has given us minds for a reason, after all! The scripture says:

At the risk of causing this topic to spiral out of control, I want to address the issue of the source of wisdom for a moment.Of course, Falwell (and others) claim God as their source of wisdom yet all too often use their own fallible and biased opinions when speaking out in public. Quite simply, I am showcasing two basic views on free will and mind:View#1: Free Will is unencumbered by religious dogma and the imposition of ethics or morality on a freely thinking individual.View#2: Presupposing that God exists, is loving, and wants the best for us within His basic commandment of Love the Lord with all thine heart, soul, mind, and strength... Freewill is more narrowly defined as freedom to obey or reject an absolute.Ohnhai, you well know that we have gotten into these issues concerning God (Is He or Is He not?) religion (legislation of morality or exclusion of any religion from public education)and free speech (the right to speak versus the right to hear or not hear in context...)and you know we will be discussing these same things many years from now! I enjoy the interchange, however! How ya doin, by the way?
Drop by chat this morning if you have a spare moment!
