"The Lord has redeemed all of us, all of us..." should we be grateful?
RE: "The Lord has redeemed all of us, all of us..." should we be grateful?
This isn’t exactly a classic religious dodge (no contradictions in bible, where do morals come from argument). It’s more of a legitimate criticism that’s been witnessed over time, by multiple people who have come forward stating what they have seen you doing. You’re completely ignoring criticisms from myself, Napoléon, Neimenevic, Cato, Steel Curtain, Stimbo, Pyrrho, (if I used those names unfairly, let me know, I’ll correct it) and probably more. Instead of addressing these problems head on, you run away from them, and say things that sound like you’re feeling sorry for yourself. They basically just wasted time on you, because you don’t feel they deserve a response. You respond to rexbeccarox, with something with no actual substance, again, but people are trying to get you to see something that you’re doing, and you don’t seem to care. We’re not accusing you of faking kindness, we’re glad you’re that kind, but when people are trying to point out something to you, instead of getting defensive and running to someone, and hiding from everyone else, maybe actually, listen to them, especially when it’s not just one person saying it. And, yes, we’re still going to make fun of religion, and call it disgusting, because we can actually back up our claims. Most of us don’t respect it, for good reasons, that doesn’t mean we can’t respect religious people. It’s just that many of them on here, are incapable of answering the tough questions honestly, but you’ve stuck by your beliefs better than most, because you don’t believe in a lot of the evil in the bible. However, you still seem to ignore a lot of the logical questions concerning the reasons why you believe them, but that seems to be a tough one to face, and not really the issue here. It’s more of what I’ve been saying or what Cato said in #297, Steel said in #299, etc. Maybe, actually listen, and take it to heart.
Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' -Isaac Asimov-
