    Reality is harsh, and I've had more than my "fair" share. Judgemental? Nope. Not me, sir.

    Your quote: ‘Isn’t it nice that you assume the worst motives of people you don’t like?’
    Seems to be the exact thing you are doing.

    Your quote: ‘there is something terribly wrong with your attitude and heart.’
    Wow.....judgemental much? That is the worst personal attack on this thread. Step back before you go there is this internet idiot’s advice.

    I'm simply pointing out what he is doing and calling him out on it. I am assuming he is not just trolling and actually speaking his assumptions. If he is being dishonest, then that undermines that particular analysis and demonstrates and different set of issues.

    Beyond that, this is not my first go round with this person. There's a long history.

    I am relying on Jesus' guidance on the matter:

    Luke 6:43-45
    For there is no good tree which produces bad fruit, nor, on the other hand, a bad tree which produces good fruit. For each tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a briar bush. The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil; for his mouth speaks from that which fills his heart.

    Lots of people don't realize that what they say and write shows the world who they are.

    I fail to see where quoting scripture absolves you from this personal attack. Are you calling him evil now?

    If you define calling someone out for what they do a "personal attack," then I have no response. "Quoting scripture" is meaningless. The content of the scripture I quoted tells the story. If one consistently hates their enemy through their words, you can be sure that they are not an obedient disciple of Jesus. That is exactly what the person in question was doing.

    Since we are all supposed to be Christians to post here, I am trying to uphold the standard.

    According to the scripture, his words reveal his evil heart. I don't think he is irredeemably evil, but he is certainly doing evil.

    Please stop with the premise that you are all about Christian behavior while wasting no time throwing flames, and without guilt, apparently. This argument you present is a false dichotomy. You do not own the higher ground just yet. That is not for you, or I, to determine.
    You said that what others say and write shows the world who they are. I concur.

    How do you know that he talked to him? Are you another one with an active imagination?

    His brand of self-righteousness is missed by some, for what it is, but you have nailed it.

    I don't know what your deal is, but as of late you are just annoying.
    Maybe I know it because the one who took the picture said "Joe Biden took his granddaughter to the movies in Georgetown last night. On his way out he stopped to speak w/ a homeless man. "

    Maybe that person was lying. Maybe this picture was a political stunt; but you would rather insult me and believe what you can't verify either way.

    The truth is annoying to those who prefer a lie.

    Maybe the person was telling the truth. Maybe you ran off at the mouth before researching the story. Maybe you lack the ability to admit you were wrong.

    You only view your own opinion and your private interpretation of scripture as truth. Everyone except you is an idiot.
    You are the poster child of why most Baptists see Calvinism as a nasty doctrine and Calvinists as nasty people.

    Firstly, don't you think that your views are true? Is that Okay?

    Secondly, my interpretations are anything but "private". They are orthodox, well-documented, and laid out in confessions. Do you adhere to any confessions, or is it another case of you, the Bible, and no creed but Christ? See, that IS the very definition of private interpretation. . .

    Lastly, don't blame me for your hatred of an entire group of people. If you fail to love, even your enemies, that's your failure to which you are accountable to God.

    If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen.​

    Hate? You must be talking about yourself. Hate oozes from you in your discussion of anything not reformed.

    I think my opinions are opinions. You act as if yours are divine inspired.

    Two groups of people heavily use emojis, 12 year-old girls and effeminate men. Which are you?

    I’d stack my manliness resume against yours any day there chief.

    There is one type of person that posts about their manliness on the Internet. 14 year old nerds.
