Re: Anti-family values
may I assume that you consider AIDS infections to be pro-family value?
​
it's funny that the anti-darwinists are often the same people as the social darwinists.

hey hey hey wait a minute.
...The Simpsons ... That 70s Show...
​
those happen to be very good shows. i regularly watch that 70's show with my parents.
​
and the simpsons takes a suprisingly compassionate view on christian fundamentalism. ned flanders isn't there to make them look stupid, or idiotic, or laughable. there's quite a lot of actual depth there.

Re: a spokesperson
Nicely said! Don't rightly recollect a place where Christ said to let someone else do our thinking for us. That is sooooooooo lemming.

Arachnophilia, I don't know if you saw that message, but you were the prime "other member" I was thinking of. What's the matter with you two?
​
ok, that last one was actually meant to be a valid (if cryptic) point. dorfman indicated that christ never said to defer our freedom of thought to another. i was indicating that he did imply an individualistic approach -- the people who look at the people who find. we are not handed reason.
​
of course, the statement can, and is read the opposite way as well, which would be contrary to his post.
​
would you rather i quoted one of the most well-known verse in the bible, and explained that either argument can be supported by it?

jesus christ
at least ideally. in a real world, we christians are often a very poor representation of him.

Re: Duh
If Jesus were here, on this board right now, would he back up his claims with evidence, randman?
​
no, he'd tell a fictional anecdote as an example of his principles.
