Boy, if you're gonna boast about being so brave by being unarmed, and consider the inquiry of whether anybody is a "coward" who does arm himself an 'ignorant question,' then don't be a coward to explain your terms.

I addressed your underlying question in an earlier post. You can read my answer there.

First you say you won't answer it, then you say you've already answered it ?
Is it irrational of me to ask you to clarify ?

I said I had answered the underlying question in an earlier post. I did not nor will I answer the ignorant broad brush questions. If he comes up with an intelligent question, I will answer. I have decided that in the future I will answer rational, intelligent questions, but not ignorant ones that are not really looking for answers or a rational discussion.

When are you going to begin answering the 700+ questions I have ask and your have ignored?

Oh, you mean like "why do I hate the poor ?"

:laugh:

Your "coward" comment was a stupid one. You should just take it back. These things never work out for you.

So you're not going to answer my question? Why do you hate people who own guns?

Rev. I don't hate people with guns. I grew up with guns. Every family where I lived has, at a minimum, a shotgun and a rifle. They were used primarily for hunting.

I do feel sorry for people who are so afraid, so untrusting that they feel they have to always pack heat with them. That is sad.

Do you carry 'heat' into the pulpit with you?

Sad is not what you said earlier. You intentionally used an inflammatory ad hominem against people you disagree with by calling them cowards. So why do you hate those people who own guns where you have lived?

Do you carry 'heat' into the pulpit with you?

Never have.

Never have.

I said that I am not cowardly enough to feel that I need to carry a firearm to church. If others take offense, that is their problem, not mine.

Do you carry a firearm into the pulpit with you? I have responded to you. Please respond to me or do not ask more questions. Thanks. /FONT]

Your implication is clear and yes it is your problem whether you want to admit it or not. Everyone knows what you intended. So why do you hate those who own guns.

Yea I answered this in my last post. I said I never have.

Like I said, I don't hate gun owners. I do get tired of folk who will not accept an answer when they receive one. I feel sorry for them also just as I feel sorry for folk who are so fearful the believe they need to go about armed. That is sad!

Rev. I believe I've said this, or something like this before. Hatred is stupid. It does not harm the folk who are hated, but it does harm the holder of hatred. Jesus said to "Love your enemy." He said it. I believe it. I try to live by his words.

Good, glad you are not so fearful of life that you feel you need to carry a weapon with you into the pulpit.

That's their problem, not yours? That's one of the most idiotic statements ever made. If you insult someone, it is YOUR problem, not theirs. If I say, "You're an idiot", and you get upset, who gets the infraction? If I call you names, who's that on? Me, obviously. But not in your convoluted mind.

You blatantly called anyone who carries a firearm to church a coward. It was barely even implied, it was so outright. Yet, when you call someone a coward, it's their problem? Wow.

I cannot help it if someone is insulted when I say something about myself.

It is their problem, until the pull their firearm out and aim it at me because they are afraid and have to hide behind a firearm. That is cowardly.

As I told you before, you put yourself and others in unnecessary danger by having a firearm in your home, and in taking it to church with you.

It's a relevant question, then, whether +anyone+ who carrie s a sidearm is "fearful;" a coward; including law enforcement.
