Maybe it is narschephastic.

Here is the response from said "friend": Quote:Ok well u celebrate Xmas so isn't that the same thing as Easter and Jesus Death and resurrection is proven maybe if u take a look in the bible once and stop being a narcostic person u could see the truth in The Lord And we will pray for you and you're sins To which I replied with: Quote:Actually I don't celebrate christmas as a Christian. I buy my kids stuff and we put up a tree. None of that is mentioned in the book of fairy tales (read: buy-bull). Needless to say, there was no further response from her. I felt her response was a pathetic attempt at guilt tripping me for posting what I had a right to on my wall. Her comments were demeaning in nature by their dismissive tone - telling me to stop being a "narcostic" (whatever that is) person and see the truth in the lord. Really... now how is what I said exactly demeaning to anyone? I look at her response like this - she doesn't like the fact that there are people out there smart enough to question the existence of god. That there are people out there that don't buy into the hype of some sky daddy and so since she's incredibly naive she chooses to go the route of being demeaning in her comments.

Yeah. That first part is kind of obnoxious for a Facebook post especially since your friends get to see it on their News Feed. Passive aggressive FB posts got ranked as one of the least favorable posts for Facebook.
Christians can eat ham...the only thing a Christian cannot actually eat is blood (not even sure there is a verse about being against cannibalism; it's just implied that it's wrong). You were demeaning from the first post, so I don't think you really should complain if one of your friends called you out.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

An alternative response would have been - come again?

Polecat uses a liberal interpretation.....like most of the dummies he makes it say what he wants it to say.
