Yep........
Could you repeat the part of the stuff where you said all about the things?
Oh, I understand what you meant; that's why I said "in context of my reply to RD2"....
Again, you all have an opinion. I do respect and I appreciate hearing yours! Thanks for the feedback! And God bless! :applause: :thumbsup:
Make sense, if you can.

Does this mean you don't want to discuss OUR part in creating and intensifying this crisis?

Poncho, why discuss things that matter little or nothing to those with the power to change it? To do so is an exercise in futility. And I have much better things to do, like witnessing for Jesus.
Speaking or sounding off about problems is one thing. Discussing them to find solutions is another. And unless we have the power to bring about actual change, it if an exercise in pure futility. Shalom!

This is just a dumb approach to anything. I can complain about it. But when it comes time to talk about solutions and things that can be done, I don't want to take part.

Coming from the lips and heart of someone who only offers rants and complaints and never gets into responding to the debate when it is laid at your front door! Be silent you Hypocrite! :thumbs:
*Ahem* Not "Brother Hypocrite"? :laugh:
Who is the hypocrite here? YOU are the one that said debating was futile. Now you are criticizing someone for not debating.
Again, you are welcome to voice your view. Never said debating was futile, just debating something we had NO POWER TO SOLVE. Politically we can't change the problems, so why WASTE time discussing it?????? BTW - God loves you Matt, and so do I. :thumbsup:

Given your past history on this thread (and elsewhere), how can we determine if you really mean what you are saying?
Gee, I don't know? But this I do know, Jesus loves you, so do I. Shalom!

The only reason WE don't have the power to change things is because guys like you keep telling us WE don't have the power to change things.
If sounding off about problems without the power to bring about change is "an exercise in pure futility" then you've already wasted several hundred hours here exercising in pure futility.
For certain sure WE aren't going to change things by ignoring problems or worse yet defending the very people causing the problems with OUR silence.
BTW, I used the word "hypocrite" once. I got a permanent 10 point infraction for it.
You shouldn't have to worry about it though. You aren't me. :type:

I can't afford another 30 points. Maybe you can get one of the folks in the preferred posters club to do it. :smilewinkgrin:
