    Of course it is...........just read back your own stuff, Get's tiresome. Read some more newspapers and dig up some more dirt. It thrills us to no end.

    Cheers,

    That is totally ridiculous.. and you have been reported.

    Saying that women who has a miscarriage is guilty of abortion is atrocious and you OWE my wife an apology!

    Just because your view of conception is UNGODLY.. .

    Don't accuse women of murder because God chose to allow a miscarriage.

    Beside, you apparently don't know anything about a D&C...

    So now you equate miscarriage to "someone is killing these babies". Jim, either you are delusional or you need to learn some basic facts about miscarriage.

    I understand that they are living in sin. What more do I need to know Jim? I condemn their sin, just like I condemn adultry and fornication. I don't make a special allowance for any of those. It's you that appears to make the special allowances, with your continuing advocation of homosexuality.

    a D & C is equated with abortion??

    A Miscarriage is equated with abortion??

    Jim??????????????????

    And Jesus was showing grace in the face of judgment-------He gave her a command---what was it, Jim??

    Go, and sin no more

    Seems like some would have had Jesus to stop short of the "and sin no more"-----Just "go"

    What He was telling that little woman was----"Woman---if you give me your sin----I'll give you my sinlessness!!"

    We go on like it was not necessary for that woman to repent---but it was---to receive the Lord Jesus is to repent of one's sin---in which I believe that woman did---she repented and received----Jesus commands the same----Leave homosexuality and come to Jesus----literally---to EXCEED the righteousness of the Scribes and Pharasees

    So---who understands the homosexual?? The Lord Jesus does---He's the only one who does---------and He offers cleansing and renewal and repentance------but there MUST be a turning

    No, Jim would have us talk to the woman about her sin, really get to know her and why she sins. He'd probably have us eat dinner with her a few times and maybe catch a movie or two. After all that we might be allowed to say something to her that her sin wasn't good, but we'd have to say it in a really nice way!

    well this thread just went south...

    seriously, the one or two trick pony of modern evangelicalism is getting tired and needs to be let out to pasture so it can learn more tricks.

    I've stated this before: I'm against abortion and any form of homosexual behavior.

    Evangelicalism, to survive in this century, needs to move beyond being so cloistered in rapture huddles and get out into active personal engagement with critical issues beyond hyperbole.

    I think we need to ask for a moratorium on any evangelical leader getting on television for the next five years. Seriously.

    We'll let stay on radio...which is the next major communications past time to fall (newspapers are currently the first.) But no television please.

    Let's get back to actively being what our name implies...evangelism.

    The alignment of political views with religious doctrine has been one significant downfall in American evangelicalism. Politics are America's sport of choice these days. We live by them. Evangelicals need no place in them.

    I know its been said that Evangelicalism has been suffering from a season of self-loathing...but maybe we just plain need it.

    This thread hasn't gone "south". It is sad.

    I am closing it before more hurt is given.

    BTW, to equate a miscarriage with abortion is not just wrong, it is cruel.
