  • 59 deceits of Michael Moore

    So, Johnathan, you are going to ignore all the other evidence of deceitfullness of Michael Moore because of an obscure detail being ommitted? You watched F911 without the same critical detail requirements, then you should apply equally the response. Moore used creative editing to give the viewer the appearance he wanted. This movie is filled will flat out falsehoods and deception. Remember Richard Clark, terrorist expert that came out critical of Bush's handling of 911? Well, Clark himself debunked some of the claims Moore makes specifically about the Saudi family being whisked away without questioning....why don't you go back and read the points and weigh it against moore, then decide.

    By the way, did you read those verses about the sin of homosexuality? Come up with any way to refute them?

  • Biblical Babble

    All manner of hypocrisy is being used to excuse whatever death the Israelis visit on the Palestinians. And I note your neat side-step of the slavery issue you were touting; that is NOT and employer-employee relationship, for Christ's sake, literally. The quote from Matthew is not about Jews; it's about humanity. Christ died for all our sins, and not Jewish sins, Republican sins, or liberal sins. And I'll thank you not to condescend, or play teacher. Rabbi you ain't. Whether or not you're a Christian is not a matter of profession; it's a matter of living what the Gospel teaches. When Jews murder children on the West Bank or in Gaza, it's murder. God is no respector of persons. God is not a white male protestant American republican. You sound suspiciously like Brother Swaggart, or Brother Falwell, or Brother Bakker. Judge not lest ye be judged. America is about as Christian as Sodom.

    It's not an obscure detail, it's central to the story.

    Answer my question.

    How would you feel if it were Al Gore's cousin calling the election for Al Gore after talking to him five times on election eve?

    Silence is the tacit nod of acquiescence.

    I dismiss the rest of the "59 deceits" because the very first thing I looked at was deceitful itself.

  • Jimmy the Seer

    Jonathan, don't you know God wanted Dumbya to be president so he could do all these marveleous christian things, like kill half a million Iraqi civilians, drive 2 million Iraqis from there home (if they're still standing, which is a long shot), and make Helliburton and the gang filthy richer than they already were? Isn't that pure Christianity, Murkan style? Get with the program, Jonathan. Jim has a direct line to the Almighty. It's just like a fax machine, only it's a suppostiory.

  • Lot is supposed to be a good man?

    Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him 7 and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing. 8 Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do what you like with them. But don't do anything to these men, for they have come under the protection of my roof."

    Lot offers his two virgin daughters to the crowd to be gang raped and slaughtered if only the crowd will leave him and his guests alone.

    That isn't a good man, that is a psychopathic monster.

    Leviticus 11:

    10And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:

    11They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.

    12Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.

    Have you ever eaten at Red Lobster?

    Acts 10:

    25And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.

    26But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.

    27And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.

    28And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

    As you can see, Peter says that he should not call *any* man unclean.

    Since homosexuals are men, then it stands to reason that they are not unclean.

  • RE: Biblical Babble

    Who have I judged? no one...look back...I have never said anyone here is not a Christian, I quoted scripture in essencse to check yourself...

    The fact that you condier the Jews slaughterers tells me alot about you. The Jews are God's chosen people, there is no way around it. Look it up, the Gospel is to be to the Jew first then the Gentiles.

    The quote from Matthew is not about Jews; it's about humanity

    It is about God's people, which are the Jews and the gentiles who have been grafted in. You are correct that salvation is to all humanity but look at the Gospels. The Gospel was to be taken to the Jew First, not the Gentiles. It wasn't until Paul was visited by Christ on the road that the time of the Gentiles began. However, you are correct that we should love all because Christ loved us all to die for us all, but those verses are specifically about God's peopel, Christ even called them His "bretheren". It is not until you receive the Gift of salvation are you made a child of God, part of the church, part of the body of Christ, therefore it is then and only then do you become one of the "bretheren".

    When Jews murder children on the West Bank or in Gaza, it's murder

    Yes, if it is murder but if it is to protect Israel, a Jew, then it is not murder. Sounds like you have a skewed version of history concerning Israel, you'd do well to read a non-biased account. The Palestinians are not innocent. The train their kids to be martyrs in gradeschool, litte girls and boys barely school age indoctrinated as suicide bombers. We have inside contact with the IDF and its an amazing difference to hear reports from Israels view how much the world's reporting is so biased against them. Anti-Semitism isn't new its just more organized and it sounds like you have fallen prey to it.

    Are you one of the Christians who believe in replacement theology, that the church has replaced the Jews as God's chosen?

    God is no respector of persons. God is not a white male protestant American republican

    This is correct and I never said anything torefute that. Howevere, the Jews are and forever shall be, God's chosen. They denied their Messiah and God's turned to the Gentiles, and when the time of the Gentiles is up, God's attention will return to the Jews. (look up Luke 21:24)

    Judge not lest ye be judged. America is about as Christian as Sodom.

    Who have I judged? And your right about America, it has fallen away from God...
