I don't think there is a line...

I think that's where the trouble started... nobody seemed to think that 'queer' was a slur but yourself.

I don't think he said it in a negative way... queers = fags = gay people... I don't think that constitutes name calling or negativity... that's just what they're called (I hear them refer to themselves as such all the time... 'course then I hear black people call each other the N word all the time, too... guess it's okay to say unless you're white).

i agree, that was funny. as far as i knew i was playing around with madman, but the other dude went way too far, especially cuz noone was talking to him.

im done, if you make hate a part of your life, get used to it, the world is round my friend.

God talks to him.

And he drinks poison and he handles deadly snakes to prove his faith.

why must you all be so cruel..

I'm pretty sure butt-pirate is negative.

So is a women's ass.

But I guess your brother and his "teammates" would never notice that.

Yes. It also contains:

Matthew 5:43-48
43"You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' 44But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect."

and

John 15:12
"My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you."

and

Romans 5:8
"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."

but the one I think applies most to off2cjb is this one:

Luke 11:37-46
37When Jesus had finished speaking, a Pharisee invited him to eat with him; so he went in and reclined at the table. 38But the Pharisee, noticing that Jesus did not first wash before the meal, was surprised.

39Then the Lord said to him, "Now then, you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness. 40You foolish people! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also? 41But give what is inside the dish [j] to the poor, and everything will be clean for you.

42"Woe to you Pharisees, because you give God a tenth of your mint, rue and all other kinds of garden herbs, but you neglect justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without leaving the former undone.

43"Woe to you Pharisees, because you love the most important seats in the synagogues and greetings in the marketplaces.

44"Woe to you, because you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without knowing it."

45One of the experts in the law answered him, "Teacher, when you say these things, you insult us also."

46Jesus replied, "And you experts in the law, woe to you, because you load people down with burdens they can hardly carry, and you yourselves will not lift one finger to help them.

You think it's now, wait until Chris shows up.

I wasn't trying to say it was ok to kill all the gays. I was just pointing out that yes, the New Testament speaks of God's feelings about homosexual sin as well. note i pointed out sin, and not the person who is homosexual. That's all I'm adding to this thread, especially now that it went so far as moving to the ALR.

what is ALR?

Isn't there a show called "queer eye for the straight guy" or something like that.....

Because your brother can bench press alot....what does that have to do with anything?

he can pick up any man he wants

Been a while since we've had a good ALR thread!

So Life according to Off2giveBj's:

God got pissed at the Queers because the parade was going to be bigger than ever this year, so he stuck his finger in the Ocean and twirled up a storm that made oh let say 200.000 people homeless and who knows how many take the fast track upstairs (if you believe this sort of thing.

Popquiz hotshot:

Why whould he not just strike lightning and brimstone on all who like to fudgepack?. Was he hung over?, was he short of batteries on his lightning stick?. was he playing pingpong with the devil?.

I am trying to put myself in your birkenstocks and figure out what it must be like to live in a world of black and white.....

Jorge, my problem with the lifestyle is once again based on my beliefs. It is that simple. No studies anywhere have proven one speck of evidence supporting either argument.

I know it is a choice because God would not create something he does not like. Once again, it is that simple. I do have close friends who are gay. I dine with them and travel with them just like anyone else. They know how I feel, and I know how they feel. It stays at that.

What does benching??? have to do with anything?

QUOTE]he can pick up any man he wants

it only took 20 posts for someone to get that joke.

i thought i was being funny, but apparently there are some pretty angry dudes here. sorry.

Why aren't you the one who consistantly cries about the stereotyping that goes on here, yet here you are, stereotyping all Christians into this one neat box so you can hate.

Its all opinion baby. Take it the way you want. I could care less. You cannot take away my right to free speech, no matter how hard you and the ACLU will try.

You're an idiot Claus, nothing more and nothing less. No where in this thread did I ever agree with the guy in the subject of this thread. I fear that you are afraid to come out of the closet because you are always name calling men with little gay names. Come out Claus, you can date the strong big breasted brother of redsox something or other.

OH OOOOOH OOOH - I just had a GREAT idea for a show.... wait for it.... wait for it....

"Nigga Eye for the White Guy"!!!!!!!

Gonna put some TWENTY TWO's on that Xterra mo FO!!! BLING BLING!!



Oh, and for the new guy with the muscley brother - this is just the way conversations go here...

Don't get to riled up about anything you see. People are either joking, trying to egg you on to see how mad you'll get (while laughing their asses off), or if they are really serious, they are not worth your time to argue with.
