The South’s Heritage Is So Much More Than a Flag

And who made Crabtown"boy" the intellect policeman around here?

So you want to use personal attacks as a manipulation tactic to get people to post as you like.

Fact is fewer words often say more than many words often enough. We are expressing our view of things and we may do that with one liners and we may do that with 50 paragraphs. Either way that is our view and our expression of our view.

I am not sure that you can basically call those people, with whom you disagree, unintelligent in Jesus name. You like to tout how you follow Jesus I suggest you do so in your response to others. Own your words, I will own mine and others will own their words and we can all get along.

Until you decide to respond intelligently and on topic I see no reason to respond and continue to drag this thread off topic.

By the way, please watch the John Piper video linked in another thread. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNAQ4mJDTIc

Thanks.

Good point. Why are people not calling for the removal of the cross from any public display since it was used for racism?

What's with all of these false equivalencies?

Nobody had a problem with crosses being placed in their yards. The issue was BURNING crosses. Disgusting the way y'all try to pull Jesus into mess.

SO when racists and the racially prejudiced start erecting burning crosses upon which the flame never douses, then perhaps people will call for its removal.

 

[Zaac]

I agree. Let's get rid of the cross. After all, it's been burned many times to harass and intimidate minorities.

There's a huge difference between The Cross and a burning cross.

Doesn't matter. You argument is that the Confederate flag is bad because it's perceived as being bad.

By your own logic, that the cross is not actually bad is irrelevant if it's perceived as bad.

 

[Zaac]

Doesn't matter. You argument is that the Confederate flag is bad because it's perceived as being bad.

Nope. The BFONV is bad because of the reason it was placed over state houses

By your own logic, that the cross is not actually bad is irrelevant if it's perceived as bad.

Nice try again with the false equivalency.

But a burning cross isn't the same as the Cross of Jesus. So you can save this lil vain attempt to equate the two for some 6th grader who believes everything the grownups tell him.

 

[JohnDeereFan]

So then why aren't crosses bad for the reason they were burned on people's lawns?

But a burning cross isn't the same as the Cross of Jesus.

Again, you're the one who made it about perception, not me. So by your own logic, it is the way it's perceived.

So you can save this lil vain attempt to equate the two for some 6th grader who believes everything the grownups tell him.

Fine. Come back when you're in sixth grade and we'll continue this conversation.

 

[Zaac]

Silly man. Burning crosses ARE bad.

Again, you're the one who made it about perception, not me. So by your own logic, it is the way it's perceived.

Naah. You want it to be about perception so that you can make your whole burning cross example fit. But burning crosses aren't the Cross of Jesus. SO try, try, try as you may. That foolishness isn' tgonna fly. No not today.

Fine. Come back when you're in sixth grade and we'll continue this conversation.

Gosh, that's the best you got? :laugh:

 

[JohnDeereFan]

Naah. You want it to be about perception

Actually, I've been arguing against the moronic idea that it's about perception.

That idiocy is your argument, not mine.

It would seem the idiocy is your own as I have said nothing about perception but about the reality of why the flag flies.

You're just so hung up in your own prejudice that it's left ya confused.

 

[Bro. Curtis]

No, that is not the thought. If you disagree then disagree intelligently.




Your simply replies only go to prove the point of the thread on anti-intellectualism.

Then reply with intelligence and not with simple one-line quips that add absolutely nothing to the thread. Try writing an entire paragraph or two that says something. Thanks.

I'm still waiting for you to show me all the white supremacist groups affiliated with the Tea Party. That'd be a great way to set an intellectual example.

I'm still waiting for you to show me all the white supremacist groups affiliated with the Tea Party. That'd be a great way to set an intellectual example.

And I am still waiting for answers to about 783 questions you have ignored.

Tea Party Nationalism” examines the leaderships, histories, and activities of six national organizational networks at the core of the Tea Party movement: FreedomWorks Tea Party, 1776 Tea Party, Tea Party Nation, Tea Party Patriots, ResistNet, and Tea Party Express. In each case, with the exception of FreedomWorks, the authors found associations between Tea Party organizations and extremists spanning from anti-immigration activists to militia leaders to white nationalists. Groups with known anti-Semitic agendas come up often and prominently in the report’s 94 pages, which also catalog numerous vitriolic attacks by Tea Party members using anti-Muslim and Islamophobic rhetoric.

and this:

The Tea Party movement has extensive links to white supremacist groups, a report published by the Institute for Research & Education on Human Rights today has alleged.

The report lists incidents, individuals and websites it claims demonstrate the links, and also expresses concern that Tea Party meetings are used as recruiting grounds for racist groups. The movement has repeatedly denied it is racist.

That is enough for now. Will you please start answering questions?

 

[Bro. James]

I ain't no intellectual for certain. I have been around a lot of folk who could be called supremacists--black, white and yellow.

An interesting website: http://libcfl.org/gregscv/

Not sure how many are in this camp, probably not a few. Now what?

It is time for the Democrats to apologize for being the party of slave owners, KKK, Jim Crow, abortion, and same-sex marriage.
