It won’t listen to reason and it won’t be thwarted until it gets what it wants - the satisfaction of it’s lust. If violence is necessary, then so be it.”

That equally describes any mob, whether it’s a lynch mob, or a union picket line attacking a “scab,” or Ku Klux Klansmen attacking a black church, or a mob blocking the way into an abortion clinic. Ask any street cop who had to gear up during the 1992 L.A. riots, or in Seattle when the World Trade Organization was meeting, or even a sports celebration that gets out of hand. When the mob gets riled up they’re a wild beast ... and you don’t have to be an androman to abandon one’s human reason and revert to wildness.

Then you just wrote, “I didn’t say the guy was the devil....stop lying.”

But you did say it (as anyone can read up to see) and I’m not lying ... which means you just did.

A mob will come and go.

The sodomites, because they can’t be satisfied, won’t go away.

“I am simply discerning truth from a lie in his statement. Forgetting the political argumentation - which is vain discussion in light of eternity anyway! And, no - I don’t thank him for this potty-mouthed tripe.”

Speaking as a committed Christian, it’s this type of attitude that puts people off of even considering the possibility of examining a Christian life. You’ve made zero attempt at reaching this person where they live.

God isn’t going to knock a person out of their car on the way to work and speak to them. Most people look at how Christians conduct themselves in their lives and public discourse before considering the appropriateness of that in their lives.

Considering your job is to help bring people to Christ, vain political stuff like that is anything but vanity. As for the potty-mouth tripe, its a judgement call, isn’t it? I’m not sure either you are I are billeted for making judgements of any sort, since we are all unworthy from the get go.

Something to consider.

but people often do not have updated legal arrangements in place.

It's not the job of the State to babysit irresponsible people. If their paperwork isn't up to date, tough noogies for them.

Actually, my dad was a concert violinist: http://www.juliusschulman.com/.

He only played fiddle better than the Devil. :-)

So after the gay activists take over a church and alienate the original congregants to the point that they leave, what have they won except real estate?

“Since males who are attracted only to other males are sexually abstinent, they are perfect candidates for the Roman Catholic priesthood, which requires their priests to be celibate – that is, to refrain from marriage. Likewise, lesbians – being sexually abstinent – are perfect candidates to be nuns, since their “marriage” to Christ need never be physically consummated. For some reason I’ve never been able to fathom, neither the Roman Catholic hierarchy nor the activist movements for andromen and lesbians are comfortable with this obvious lifestyle perfection.

And, in my opinion, the unwillingness of “gay” organizations to stand up for Catholic priests when they are caught engaging in non-sexual acts with other males is the sheerest hypocrisy and poltroonery.”

First off -your Clintonesque parsing of meaning in regard to sexual activity ONLY pertaining to procreation is what keeps most of your arguments afloat. Take away this different meaning of is and your house of cards falls apart...

Lastly, as to Catholic Priests. Take a gander at “Concerning the Criteria for the Discernment of Vocations with Regard to Persons with Homosexual Tendencies in View of Their Admission to the Seminary and to Holy Orders.” (link follows) and correct your flawed perspective:

They have won a piece real estate that will no longer opposes their agenda. And in the long term strategy, they have won another battle in the long war to overtake and silence one of the only elements of society that still calls sodomistic behavior sinful - the Christian church.

Another person posted this.

Even if you don’t agree with all their points, it’s worth a view. It documents the systematic attempt of sodomites/andromen to silence and convert their opposition.

I am neither more nor less empowered by God to read and contemplate the meaning and applicability of scripture than any other human being gifted with an independent soul and a free will by our Creator.

This statement alone shows that, in general, your interpretation would be based in error. The only true interpretation of scripture does not come from self but from the Holy Spirit. (Even scripture says that.)

Hey Pope Neil,

You are indeed an interesting read. You’ve made my day, I praise God all day long for being raised Catholic.

But I am so glad that there are a few things we agree on, keep thinking, keep discussing, that’s what makes FreeRepublic an addiction for me. God Bless Jim Robinson and every man and woman who contribute to this blog.
