Where did Jesus say, "let your wife and children be raped and murdered"?

So in other words, you're saying politics has nothing to do with preaching the gospel, and therefore Zaac's question is invalid. Correct?

In other words, the hypothetical person made a decision about their salvation based on how I voted.

Yes, you did. Your hypothesis is that by voting for Romney, someone doesn't get saved. The opposite is that, by voting for Obama, someone gets led to salvation. And there you go proving what I said. So again: if someone refuses to hear the Word based on who I voted for, then I'd have to ask...

If an individual gets saved based on who I voted for, I'd have to seriously wonder what it is he/she thnks salvation is really about.

Sorry, ma'am; this time, I gotta disagree with you. Near as I can tell, he legally purchased all his guns at Bass Pro Shop. I fully expect we'll be seeing guns from "Fast and Furious" popping up over the next few years in drug raids, etc. Well, that's what cammo netting and ghilly suits are...

Great. Now THAT song's stuck in my head....

Granted, this was a result of the Bush administration: And granted, I understand the reasoning behind this; similar to the events in Mississippi in the 60's, policemen who were corrupt and the federal government had to step in to protect citizens. But how did this get by Governor Jindal...

Out of curiosity, having skimmed the pages of this thread: Are we discussing what level of self-flagellating monk-hood we should strive to attain?

Hey, Bro - don't let the trolls get ya.

That's rich. That's "reporting" at its finest. (all sarcasm intended) 2 of 5 economists interviewed expressed their opinion that the republican bills won't actually create jobs. 1 said that some job creation could happen, but as an afterthought rather than a direct result. 1 (chairman of...

Sorry; I believe I may have called him a liberal, or at least insinuated such. Because he is. And it has nothing to do with hurricanes, or his Christianity.

Oh, I understand.

So it's okay if some people give in to their urges, and satisfy their lusts by eating as much as they want, because it's only an eating disorder and has nothing to do with gluttony, and they can preach against other kinds of sins while they stuff their faces.... But homosexuality is a...

At least there's one actor in Hollywood who gets it. And did a nice job of rebutting the British interviewer. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2012/07/23/ice-t_defends_gun_rights_the_last_form_of_defense_against_tyranny.html

You'll notice the parts I bolded from the article on the study, especially the last one: "may play a part in eating habits."

You didn't even look at the article I posted a link to; or you willfully disregarded it. Biblical gluttony is a mis-placed desire, an over-indulgence to the point of excess and/or waste. I'd like to see your research materials that state it "has" to include regurgitation. Exactly. And that's...

You clearly do not understand what I'm saying; so I'll backtrack and say, you're correct; obesity is not a sin of itself; but is the result of allowing gluttony to rule your life. Now, people try to make excuses for it; and scientists have even identified certain genes they're associating with...

Would it have been better if I had just said "gluttony"? Granted, the word zalal has a definition that doesn't specifically identify eating; but the word is used in association with both riotous eaters and those that are given to appetites (appetites here doesn't necessarily apply only to...

Obesity (gluttony). My point being: I have a genetic propensity towards heterosexuality. I never "chose" to like girls; I just do. If you believe it's a choice, then ask yourself: When did you "choose" to like the opposite sex? This genetic predisposition makes me capable of adultery. I...
