But...going with your reply to me--the Bible is not credible proof of a god's existence. Why do you treat it as such?
You and I probably have a different understanding of the term "judge". Since it can be used in a variety of ways what one implies when using the term is not always clear.
And by the way, I know there are some Christians who do condemn others for committing what they believe to be sins. I have seen this first hand so I do not dispute the assertion that some Christians condemn people. In fact, the Apostle Paul spoke about it and as we would expect, he rebukes those who do.
Nor have I ever used the word "apprentice" in any of my posts here.
With regards to your suggestion on a debate topic, I am happy to say I think we can tweak it a little and come up with a concise sentence for our topic.
Agreed?
I was being facetious about my apprentice comment.
Second, I see I will need to copy pasta the post where you "judge" me (and others) but I will come back to that.
Ok, proceed with your question that you wish to debate. But a word of unsolicited advice. If you want a fair and balanced debate, you need to not come up with your own definitions for things, example, the word "judge."
We all judge but I don't admonish, and you do. I have observed it on here. You do it in a passive aggressive way, but you do it.
So as long as you debate in a fair way, I will gladly participate.
Bring it.
