You certainly are engaging in much self flattering fantasy here, and so is Norm.
My tail has never been “scalded” once in this affair, although your attitudes do make me very sad.
About your tail, whether its been scalded or not, you don’t get to determine that. Observers do. You lost the debate when you ran out of gas on the substance, refused to answer a reasonable question, freaked out, puffed up and started doing soul patrol on a political thread.
You just need to bear up and apologize, and go on. I just had never seen anyone qualifying the condition of anothers soul on a political thread before. It’s not nice. Especially against someone who won’t vote for a candidate who winks at abortion, or gay “marriage”. Because it might hurt the Republican Party is definitely not the foundation of our faith? In fact, I think it is courageous.
It shows more trust in God alone, in fact, than voters who think they have to help God help the Republicans gain the senate, by propping up abortion winking candidates. Who knows how God might reward a nation who displays such courage of the the vote in the face of such risk, when the stakes are so high, for standing up.
You have a great day.
