I couldn’t disagree more. Integrity is not just an issue confined to church.

Ken, here is another question for you
If you had several employees who spoke a foreign language while on duty -
would you have a problem with that. -
Basically I would agree with you- but what I am saying is that in a Christian ministry - our standards should be above reproach.
Also you use the word "repented" I see that as a spiritual decision - -
I try to not compartmentalize life.
-
Irrelevant question to a question about personal integrity. I’m going down rabbit holes with you.
-
Negative -
This is a very valid question
Now, I can understand that speaking to a customer in a foreign language would be okay
But employees talking among themselves in a foreign language - is very offensive to many people.
When I was in Germany - I had a German secretary. One day during lunch her German friend came to visit.
While conversing - they communicated in English. After the friend left, I asked Mrs. Muller why they didnt speak in German.
Mrs Muller stated that they did not want me to think they were talking about me behind my back.
I have always respected Mrs. Muller. -
If I was living in a foreign country I would try to learn that country’s language.
-
generally, I agree - but this was a US military post -and the "official" language is English.
But back to the subject I brought up
Do you believe that talking in a foreign lanuage on the job could be offensive to other employees? -
So you would like to see English declared to be the official language, and all immigrants schooled to use it?
-
Ken - you know what I am talking about -
Now, I have answered your previous questions
This is a simple YES OR NO
CAN IT BE OFFENSIVE TO SOME EMPLOYEES IF OTHER EMPLOYEES ARE CONVERSING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE
Edited to add
Ken, my apologizes - I thought you asked that question of making English the official language - -
No, but everyone should learn English in this country as a practical matter.
-
I remember Jesse Jackson talking about spitting in the food of white people when he was a young server in Greenville. That's certainly more offensive than a word (it is an assault). I guess Jackson is the "Trump" of black racists. Or, perhaps, people do things...and say things....in certain stages of their lives that may not truly hold sway over their character. Who knows.
-
According to Black lives matter, and other hate groups, its ok for Blacks to assault property, burn steal, use offensive language, as they are excused by how bad many jave been treated.
-
Is EVERYONE-- yes, white or black-- who uses that word inherently racist?
-
Earth Wind and Fire Well-Known MemberSite SupporterJust like his affairs did
-
the ones since he announded and became President, ot ones from decades ago? Do you apply the same standrs towards yourselfas you do trump?
-
Earth Wind and Fire Well-Known MemberSite SupporterWhat are you, a racist! I really don’t understand your demeanor these days. Really, you are telling us you a avowed Christian... love your enemy’s; do good to people that persecute you. Truly, if all you do is love your in-group, you are not growing in Christian distinction... loving only your own means you have not separated yourself from the rest of the world. As Christ said, isn’t that exactly what the “Pagans” do.
I’m serious Yeshua, until there is love for enemies, there is no real transformation, because the enemy always carries the dark side of your own soul. Normally those people who threaten us carry our own faults in a different form. The people who really turn us off are in some way very much like us. Christ offers not only a suggestion; you have got to love your enemy to grow up He even puts it in the imperative form: Do it! -
Earth Wind and Fire Well-Known MemberSite SupporterYes and I did not vote for a cheat and liar. Also I wouldn’t buy anything from someone I don’t trust and being in the construction trade in NYC taught me allot about Donald Trump and his character ( actually lack there of ).
And it’s not that I hate the guy, I don’t hate anyone. It’s that from past experience, I wouldn’t trust him as far as I could throw him... not personally, not in business, and God help us, not as President. -
Earth Wind and Fire Well-Known MemberSite SupporterSorry, what word... are you referring to the “N” word?
-
Earth Wind and Fire Well-Known MemberSite SupporterJon, you know better than that. It is God who knows and in the Sermon, Jesus the Christ suggests that you imitate God... and if God is and wants us to love, ie our neighbor as ourselves then who are we to not do what He commands?
Lastly, be perfect... you know where I’m going with this.
