Mt. Soledad cross ordered to be taken down

[Mister Agenda]

I don't understand why you impute "offense" when all I'm doing is correcting you on an obvious misstatement of fact. Are you always this defensive about your charity? Why is that?

I accepted your correction and then pointed out that not all the money was going to Christian organisations, what's wrong with that, just was making sure no one thought all that money went to Christian organisations. I know how people like to read things into a conversation around here. 

Nor did I say all FBOs are Christians. I will, however, go on record as saying that if you need an invisible guy in the sky telling you to do right by other people, then keep your religion. Whatever it takes to get you to think about something other than your own fate, I'm cool with it.

Like I said above making sure others understood, some around here come into this place with blinders. I do not have to worry about my fate, Christ is my savior and I'm secure in this. if all I was worried about was my fate I certainly wouldn't be here.

Me, I don't need that higher power to know that I should rise above myself. Whatever. If you need it, use it.

You say you should, but how much do you actually do.

That you brought up offense when you were corrected is not reading into the conversation. It's what you did.

You're always challenging people on what they actually do, and then getting schooled. I don't know about Thump, but I work with refugee children on Saturdays (at entirely my own expense), donate to CAMFED, make loans through KIVA, collect clothes for Sistercare, let a homeless vet live in my house for free from August through last month, and I feel like there are more things I could mention that aren't on the tip of my brain right now. The reason you keep getting schooled is that you lack the charity in your heart to believe people who don't believe the same things you do can be as charitable as you are.
