MD was referred to in the initial paragraph. This comment was a few paragraphs later with no mention or inference to the person.
Where are you going with the comment?

Obviously not, if there are questions from the author of the comment. I NEVER stated the person was MD. You perhaps postulate, but the comments stand on their on merit. No direct reference to anyone other than a person.

quote:Okay, fair enough. You did not say it. You just broke out into a random comment about people stuffing doctrine down throats on a thread originally intended to talk about farts and 50 shades of grey. Got it!!!

MD has been to war, his own personal war by his own words. It is getting rather humanitarian in my mind. There really is no need to ask anything personal about him. He won’t answer and will use the inquiry against you later to try to create anger and backlash, so it will appear there is a victim in the exchange.
NO MORE MD
At this point, it is best not to engage as it will only provide more fodder to fuel the rants, AND JUDGEMENT.
Guidance in general
AGAIN, in the end we are all just regular folks praising and worshipping in our own way. Many of our military allowed for us to do so.
Really? Never said MD was not Christian, I believe he is, misguided, but that’s may right to say so.
WITH that being said, America was founded not on freedom of speech, but freedom of religion. When a person stuffs a doctrine down the troats of their pupils without the 360 review process, it seems un-American to me.
I choose to worship Christ in the manner I choose, and my country was founded on that premise. No one individual can break that social contract.
That
My reply was nasty?

The dark side of course…
Is your goal to pick thru every word, comma, inflection, to prove a point.
Get to the crux, what is you point?

OK, were you trying to be nasty?
quote:You just condescendingly asked me to take it "step by step" to gain understanding of your message. Then, when I try to take it "step by step" by asking who you were referring to when "engaging", you accuse me of picking through every word???

Do you want me to try to understand you or not?
So, you were honestly not referring to MD when you said to “not engage”? You were honestly referring to “the dark side”? I’m not sure what that is…

Well, why didn’t you ask.
Those are all easy ones. The dark side was a joke. The engagement was for everyone. It has gotten to be a little more about infighting than being productive.
I do beleive my merit as calling out anyone directly in the past proves if I want to say something, I will.
AND the 50 shades of grey comment was for Larry.
Whether you call it condescending, or not. The statements were factual.

Have a good evening, time for bed. I’ll catch up with you folks later…

When you ask someone to take something “step by step” because you are trying to infer that they don’t understand something, it’s not a “fact”, it’s condescending. When you command someone to “refrain” from doing something who you have no authority over, it’s not a “fact”. It’s condescending.
We can play games all day if you want, but we both know the truth. I’m not sure who you think you are fooling by playing wordsmith, but it’s not working on me.

So you do not take me at my word? I gave you the respect of doing so.
I provided a detailed and thorough repsonse to your questions. I had no obligation to do so. If you had already made up your mind then why the disingenuous tact of setting a trap?
Call me a liar. That’s what you want to do. Do it, and get it out of your system. Quit dancing around the word liar, you have essentially already
