Then again, I don't claim to be a biblical scholar. On the other hand, I *can* read.
@Drich - incidentally, since you've not bothered to comment on my polite query, I can only assume that your scriptural reference was a thinly veiled attept to proselytize. You know better than that. Knock it off.
If I fail to respond one of two things happened. I did not see it or 2 I did not see a reason to respond.
the framing of questions is irrelevent. If there is an oppertunity to answer a biblical based question or general query about the known nature of God i will do so. If you simply want to argue then I will most likly pass on your invitation. even if it is framed in a polite querry.
It wasn't intended to start an argument. It was a moderator's query to allow you to connect the dots between your scriptural quote and the question you were responding to.
The point here, which appears to have eluded you, is that quoting scripture as an answer to a question that was NOT asked is frowned upon here.
Quote:I am not here to argue for the sake of argueing.
I am quite aware of why you're here, which is precisely why your scriptural quotes are expected to be topical.
