Y'all are straying off the topic!

James, your language here is way off. Have you never read in Scripture, "render not evil for evil"? You should apologise to the lady!Originally posted by King James:
Shannon, sister...why don't you shut YOUR mouth? I never had a problem with you...I never listed ANYTHING that I had heard about the SBC, so I think you need to lay off sister. Now I see you didn't mean your encouragement so you can stick your "encouragement" where the sun don't shine!
"BTW, the next time your down in the dumps go find a Canadian Baptist Board and cry on their shoulders. Since us "American baptists are so mean spirited." Um...who's the one cryin...and uh...nice example of love there sister.
As for my country and homosexuality, what the heck does that have to do with anything? I didn't make the laws in my country and besides, I'm smart enough to know that governments are going to make Christianity illegal...even yours! And I don't know what you are talking about. My pastor has preached against homosexuality and he ain't in jail. Paul went to jail for preaching the gospel. Are you scared to?
Just an fyi that final version of Bill C-250 from the 2nd Session, 37th Parliament that was passed on September 17, 2003 that added sexual orientation in the definition of identifiable groups that hate crimes can be commited against (this includes heterosexuals) included the following as an exception.Originally posted by Gold Dragon:

Your countrymen didn't take a stand against the homosexual agenda in Canada. Now you can't even preach about homosexuality from the Bible without it being concidered a "hate crime".
Hence the lack of hate crime arrests of pastors in Canada who preach against homosexuality from the bible. </font>[/QUOTE]Good job GoldDragon...somehow it's ok for some of these people to make wild, unfounded accusations lacking in any knowledge or common sense...but I can't make a vague statement about something I've heard.

(b) if, in good faith, the person expressed or attempted to establish by an argument an opinion on a religious subject or an opinion based on a belief in a religious text;
FBC...I could do that but I don't want to talk to them. did you uh...suggest that to ShannonL when she told me to shut my mouth? I looked and I don't see it.Originally posted by FBCPastorsWife:
Perhaps you and that person should hash this out in a private conversation then. Please use the private messaging feature on here!
It is not ok for shannonL to tell you to shut up and make incorrect statements.Originally posted by King James:

I am going to address this as to what to do about when someone on this Board makes one angry.
I sit on my hands That way I can't type.
Seriously, I try to avoid reacting. If I am really upset (not particularly angry), I will type out a reply and read it several times, before I post. Usually, I don't post. It really doesn't matter what that other person thinks.
When I was first on this board, someone wrote something that offended me and I reacted with an inappropriate post. Later, I realized that this person was not really being rude to me, but really had "tongue in check". From that time on, I tried to respond without reaction. I know it is difficult.
Just recently a poster was extremely rude to me. I decided the best thing to do was to ignore that person. Did that person "win"? I don't think so.
Ignoring some statements is the best way to handle them when becoming angry or feeling attacked.
Just my opinion. I don't like confrontation.
This is one of the pro-gay arguments from the Bible. Can you back this statement up with scripture?Originally posted by guitarpreacher:
For the record, the sin that led to the destruction of Sodom was the fact that they were arrogant, they were well fed and unconcerned, and they did not care for the poor and needy.
