Being told "fuck you, you horrible horrible person" along with the annoying straws, is something entirely different. I'm grateful for Whateverist for coming to my defense.

Well, I never said "fuck you," or called you a horrible person, because you clearly are a very nice person which I've mentioned before.
I never said you did. That can be attributed to Rhythm. But thank you, I appreciate it.
Quote:What I did say was making excuses for God condoning rape (and all horrible acts of violence) is a dangerous way of thinking, and I don't believe any of that is straw.
I absolutely did not say God condones rape. Neither do I believe He does. That couldn't be farther from the truth. I believe He condemns rape and I believe He has ruled it as an objectively evil act. So yes, that is also a straw.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
