RE: Slavery (on Thursdays)
Then you are obviously either deluded or willfully ignorant, and there is no point continuing a conversation with you.

I have proved that you are misrepresenting our conversation. Take your signature down in the next 5 minutes or I will report you.

The same screenshot that doesn't show the point i'm making or the context in which my comments were made?

Yes the mod did, and then you made it your signature. And that's why i'm not letting it go. You are lying about me, plain and simple, and this has been demonstrated

It's irrelevant whether it happened or not, its what jesus thought about slaves.

(it seems this thread is pretty much over, i'll just make this my last point...)

It's not "irrelevant" , a "parable" is an analogy. Jesus is explaining in this "analogy" what will happen to the "faithful servant" (genuine christian), and the "unfaithful servant" (fake christian/hypocrite) upon his return to earth.

the Scripture in context. so now read the text and replace the word "servant" with word "christian and you'll get the meaning.

Luke 12 (KJV)
40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
41 Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us, or even to all?
42 And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his lord shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of meat in due season?
43 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that he hath.
45 But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken;
46 The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.
47 And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.
48 But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.


If I were to modernize the analogy, I'd compare it to a bank robber(sinner) vs a cop(christian).

A bank robber(sinner) robbing a bank(commiting sin), is not as bad as if a cop(christian) robs a bank(commits sin). The reason is obvious, the cop is sworn to uphold the law and in turn has the trust of the public. By breaking that trust it doesn't reflect only upon himself, but upon the whole department. Therefore his punishment should be much greater.

But what if, out of a thousand cops you could only find one good cop? In that case the public will never believe in the system, and the idea of justice would be a joke. Because odds are they have never seen a real "genuine" cop.

I hope you can see my meaning.

Nice,

The funny thing is, I have been called "immoral" many times in this thread but yet it's the "atheist" who having nothing of substance to add... stoops to making a mockery of the disabled.

The difference, my fellow Southern friend, is that I fully realize my contributions on this thread today are stupid. Whereas you don't realize that your own posts are equally so.
