the real definition

[chuck]

Now I understand that this is a "Religious" forum but never the less there is still the freedom of speech. There was a threat made earlier in a post that warned b@d @pple of this topic being locked due to his replies. How do you ever expect to try and "SAVE" one of Gods creations if you close the door in his face? DOUBLE STANDARDS....

i simply notified him of the sticky and said if this turns sour that i'd lock it...how the fuck does that become a double standard??? IMO turning sour would have been if it became a bashing of anyones believes, for or against whatever...and i'm not christian i'm IAian, lol...j/k but really, i'm not trying to "save" or convert anyone here, just trying to have a civilized discussion. i haven't bashed anyone unless they started making flase facts (ie "the leader of the kkk was christian"), and even then i really don't consider that bashing...also, locking a thread isn't shutting the door in someones face, especially if they've made it fairly clear they aren't interested, i'm respectful of peoples views and the thread is still open and hasn't gone sour yet.

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE tell me how this is any double standard, especially with me NEVER claiming to be christian

and yes there is a freedom of speech but it kinda goes along the lines of a certian Qsomeone going in to the kills forum and constantly criticizing street racing...the forum is to talk about racing not why you shouldn't do it...i understand that this forum is to talk about religion, ALL religion and lack their of but simply flaming people for what they believe is wrong...you can tell someone that their opinion is wrong all you want but arguing factual information (ie, the basis/fundamentals of a certian religion) is uncalled for especially if someone doesn't know what they are talking about...i'm NOT christian but i know the structure and in's and out's of the religion so if someone is claiming false factual information i am going to tell them they are wrong...if someone states and opinion that i don't agree with then i'll tell them that i think they are wrong...but thinking and knowing are two different things and i've made that clear in all my posts and have been very considerate and open minded toward people as long as they don't throw out some far fatched FALSE fact

...do we need a demonstration thread so you can see what i'm talking about??
