Another Good Reason to be a Christian

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.

Because I don't see white men in America comfortable with the concept of eating blood nor have any conception that there are others that actually do so per a normal diet. It's not something that really migrated from the Old World.

So it is not evident in white men writing vampire novels?

Yet you're unable to say, "I'm sorry, I was wrong about you". You got caught out making an assumption, and you don't have the spine to admit error. Maybe one day you'll be able to see past your own filters ... but life is short, so I won't waste any more time replying to just another Internet jackoff.

Perhaps you should think more and post less? Just a little friendly advice.
Perhaps you should take your own advice, Dixie.
I've spent 28 years dealing with Americans. I would not call that limited experience. I have probably spent more time in the South than you have spent out of it.

I tend to notice that religious folk tend to make a lot of noise about how many years experience they've had 'doing stuff' like it's important. Suppose it harks back to the crazy culture of submitting to an 'elders' knowledge. As soon as someone says they have 20 years experience, I immediately get cautious of whatever they are about to say next I'm afraid.
Non religious don't get so easily caught in the trap of thinking that years of experience equates to superior knowledge so don't go throwing such quotes around. Someone half my age can just as well have a much better proposal for a solution than me.

I just don't because of the ban on eating blood in the Book of Acts. Ah, so the very devout farmers in my country, producing and eating (very tasty) blood sausages are suddenly atheists because they don't subscribe to one chapter of that stupid book. Get real, man. Do you follow script and verse of everything written in there? I mean, how about not shaving, not cutting your hair and not wearing cloth of two different fabrics? ![[Image: Bumper+Sticker+-+Asheville+-+Praise+Dog3.JPG]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-d-3rfdI7nG0%2FTerwtFyFXoI%2FAAAAAAAACak%2F7kFSmHeVrng%2Fs320%2FBumper%2BSticker%2B-%2BAsheville%2B-%2BPraise%2BDog3.JPG)

I'm not sure. But you mention having atheist friends in real life. I don't have a problem either way and I don't care if you keep your religious beliefs if they make sense to you. You're the judge of that. Is that true for you and your atheist friends? Do you and they accept each other on your own terms, or do you hold out hope of conversion? I infer that you wish not to be forthcoming or self reflective in regard to my questions. You don't owe me that but you have just pushed away my attempt to connect. Your call. But I won'd pretend that I have any idea what the blood eating is about. Nor do I care. I'll leave you to your weirdness. |
