More Bullying

[Don]

Now you're sounding like a liberal. Where have I said anything about you hating anyone? Is there some unresolved stuff you need to fess up to?

Do you not read your own posts?

And there you go crying racist again when my perspective had nothing to do with racism

Do you not read your own posts?

And I'm sure he would dislike people like you who feel that he encourages that when he feels like he's championing causes that no one else will.

There are folks who don't like Sean, Rush or Matt Drudge because they encourage a rich white , privileged male mentality that they see reflected in the Republican Party.

Feel however you wish. But how you feel about worldly stuff should not become the face of the church. And the lot of you join in and start high fiving and repeating the same disgusting stuff that Sean, Rush and Drudge do and don't realize that you're being just as divisive as you(collective) say the President is.



Laughable. I hadn't even thought about what color your skin was until YOU just brought it up cause I really don't care. There are indeed folks that I hae thought were white based upon their animosity towards the President and just about anything black. But you weren't one of them. But feel as you will.




Is that what you used to make your previous assumption?


.

What for? Is it not established that I know that Sharpton and Jackson rile up the masses when I say that Sean, Rush, and Drudge do the same thing and I speak against them doing it and no one lambhasting them for doing the same thing Al and Jesse do??




Lately you been tending to roll around in it too.

You really should read your own posts.

Do you not read your own posts?

I do indeed. Do you? I would say not if you believe I said anything about you hating anyone.

Do you not read your own posts?

Do you not know what racism is?

You really should read your own posts.

Perhaps you should too before attempting to respond to them.

And you perhaps like no one else, with the exception of one or two, need to be ashamed that you even list REVEREND anything before your name.

You betray the calling God has placed upon you in order to make political fodder.

But thank you for making my point. Now lets see how many people berate you for calling the President and others racist or does it only matter when angry white people are being called racist?

You keep talking about "angry white people". I have not seen any anger on here.

And if Jesus could call Pharisees "vipers", then I suppose it is okay for us to call pharisees "racist".

And I fail to see where being a pastor removes from one the obligation to be a patriot.

But as I said you are stubborn and bull-headed, in your mind you alone are right and everyone else is wrong. So, it's really a waste of time to try and reason with you. I'm done.:wavey:

 

[Revmitchell]

Not only is he a racist but even worse he is an abortionist. He has no problem with unfettered access to the slaughter of unborn children. He is therefore evil and not worthy of respect.

I sure have.

Then don't be surprised if the title suits several on here too.

Didn't say it did. But don't think for an instant that patriotism veils bigotry.

But as I said you are stubborn and bull-headed, in your mind you alone are right and everyone else is wrong. So, it's really a waste of time to try and reason with you. I'm done.:wavey:

Oh, so that was you trying to reason with me? :laugh: There's nothing to reason with me about.

 

[Zaac]

Not only is he a racist but even worse he is an abortionist.

If he's a racist, then this board is full of racist too. And it's pathetic the way folks always pretend to care so much about the unborn while harboring such an unloving attitude for those who have already been born.

He has no problem with unfettered access to the slaughter of unborn children.

And a lot of you are for taking lives too.

He is therefore evil and not worthy of respect.

That same coat can be worn by many on this board and throughout the church.

I sure have.

We tend to see what we want to see.

Then don't be surprised if the title suits several on here too.

Whom you call a "racist" is nothing more than someone who disagrees with you about the prevalence of racism in modern society. As I said in a post last week, there is virtually no racism left in the U.S. What there is, is personal prejudice exercised by everyone, regardless of color, national origin, religion, gender, etc. Personal prejudice is natural. People express preferences, including their preference of culture. You call that racism. It isn't. The very person you may accuse of racism, because they criticize the loud expression of opinion by those of other colors and cultures, likely has many individual relationships with people of other colors and cultures, likely of the same color and culture of those they criticize. Now, you're going to accuse me of saying the equivalent of "Some of my best friends are _________", but that would be a really stupid comment. You won't have heard what I really am saying, which is this: Personal prejudices are exhibited in a person's demeanor when they speak broadly of a different culture that tends itself to exhibit strong tendencies and characteristics that the person speaking finds offensive, distasteful, or even frightening. At the very same time, that person will know people of that culture that they consider friends.

The fact is, cultures are known as "cultures" for precisely that reason: They have common personality traits, characteristics, ethics, tastes, and manifestations. In fact, the very core concept of "culture" is the maintenance of conditions suitable for growth, i.e., the way in which people -- or bacteria, for that matter -- are nurtured for the purpose of maximum development. Cultures are different for different peoples. There is nothing wrong with that. Neither is there anything wrong with being uncomfortable with a culture other than ones own while at the same time knowing and liking people that are from that very culture. Until you and the civil rights industry realize that -- and I have a feeling the leadership if that industry knows it very well and hopes no one else figures it out -- you will continue to find yourself at odds with those who live realistically, not denying their own feelings while being willing to entertain inroads to other cultures in order to better understand them. Not change them, not "homogenize" them -- understand and interact with them.

There's nothing to reason with me about.

I think there is a great deal to reason with you about, but that attitude will prevent you from listening.

And I'm sure that includes you.

Nope. Sure haven't.

I'm gonna borrow from you: We tend to see what we want to see.

Do you like to just tell folks what they were gonna say so that you can come back and say what you want?

I don't give a flying rat about the civil rights industry or about those of you who are at odds with them. That's your fight. My problem is your fight becoming the face of the church just as it is the face that's presented on this board.

I think there is a great deal to reason with you about, but that attitude will prevent you from listening.

Just like your attitude prevents you from only viewing your POV as realistic. :laugh:

I'm sure it does. This is, sadly, the only relevant point you've posted. The rest of it? Not sure why you bothered. You just disagreed, without attempting to refute.

There's no need for me to refute most of what folks on here say. For as you see what you want to see, you also believe what you want to believe because your de facto leaders have put a bow onit and told you so. :laugh:

Ya know, when people post stuff just to spark a reaction -- how come we respond?

You're right- we shouldn't let them yank our chain.

That get the pat on the back and round of approving head nods you desired?:smilewinkgrin:

I think it is like driving by a car wreck. Just can't help to look. Anyway the ignore feature works real good. Mine has gotten heavy lately.
