The most violent crime is committed overwhelmingly per capita by minority groups to each other and to whites. Not the other way around. This is what cultism looks like. You’re in a cult.SCLaxAttack wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2024 12:55 pmActually white Christian nationalism does exist on a large scale, which is exactly why nobody has to fake racism.LaxFan2311 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2024 11:39 amYou can’t even fill a stadium full of white nationalists in this country. That’s why the left has to fake every hate crime. If white nationalism exists at a large scale, why do you all have to fake racism? The biggest racists in this country are Democrats. Proven time and again. It never fails.SCLaxAttack wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2024 10:32 amCradle, do you jump to these conclusions just to increase the volume and aggressiveness of discussion? Please tell me you know our Constitution requires freedom of religion, and that "white nationalist" differentiates that specific group of Christians from others.cradleandshoot wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2024 6:48 am+1 When you start defending Christianity on this forum the FLP hate mongers will bring out their long knives and verbally eviscerate you. They will NEVER come strait out and admit it but they intensely despise Christians and Christianity in principle. That explains their hatred towards those folks they define as their arch enemy...WHITE NATIONALIST CHRISTIANS.OuttaNowhereWregget wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2024 5:59 am While waiting for PizzaSnake’s response I’ll put this out there. I’m no Walter Martin. I don’t have all the answers to all the questions about what’s written in the Bible. I’ll try to answer them as best I can but again—I’m no scholar or expert.
Obviously not all professing Christians make Jesus look good. But I can’t judge and/or condemn them. I have to give an account of myself one Day so who am I to judge? Jesus forbad it anyway. In what has come to be known as the Sermon on the Mount, which is mainly encapsulated in chapters 5, 6 and 7 of Matthew’s gospel, Jesus said,
“Do not judge lest you be judged. For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you." Matthew 7.1, 2
The only standard of measure I want, indeed, can stand to be measured by, given my past, is mercy (Matthew 5.7), so I can’t look at another person who calls themself a Christian and lives and/or acts in apparent contradiction to Scripture and condemn them. Only God knows what goes on in a persons heart, or where they are at this stage of their lives. The apostle Paul was in the midst of a hateful, misguided, ignorant campaign against Christians before Jesus set him straight and turned his life around (Acts 9). King David committed adultery and killed the woman's husband to cover up his sin--yet God forgave him after he repented (2 Samuel 12.13). Can I condemn particular actions that are sinful? Of course. We all can. It’s wrong to cheat on one’s spouse. It’s wrong to lie. It's wrong to kill another human being. It’s wrong to do a whole host of things enumerated in the Bible. The sin itself is condemnable. The person, certainly by me, or any other human being, is not.
I also don't do well with a number of questions all at once. Too much for this aging, soon-to-be 62 year old brain. It works best with one at a time. Again, I won’t be able to answer every question. No one can except the Author Himself. But I’m happy to try to explain what my understanding is from what I read, and have read in the Bible. If folks want to put one question to me at a time, in a respectful manner, I’ll try to answer in kind.
Finally, I don’t do well with insults. I don’t know anyone who does. The older I get, the less I want to engage with anyone who is nasty and/or insulting--so I am choosing more and more not to. There are some posters here who have burned their bridges with nastiness, insults or smears once too often for me to respond to them any longer--or at least at this point in my life. I'm grateful Matnum chose to include the Ignore feature for this forum. I have enough nasty condemning words from myself and others from my past rolling around in my heart and mind to struggle with. I don't have room for more.
So again--if folks want to pose questions, one question at a time, in a respectful, civil manner--I am happy to try to respond.

That'll just be ignored. Don't let facts and respectable studies get in the way, right Petey? Wouldn't make for good trolling.
