It DOES hurt to look......

There is absoultely no proof or footing for the theory
and you call christians hypocritical? What was the question?

Why do Christians pray for victory in war?

That one good enough for ya? I seem to remember the first commandment being
"Thou Shalt Not Kill". It didn't mention any extenuating circumstances like
war...

Rev. Steve "you just can't kill for Jesus"

Buy a new or used bike and quit annoying us with your repair reports.


Much better to read complaints about BMX, top posting, Christians,
government...

Yeah, especially hypocritical Christians. Such an easy target.


Hypocritical about what, Greg?

Post the claim I have made and then been hypocritical about.

Your participation in many a flamefest in a.m-b is pretty ****ing
hypocritical for someone who considers themselves to be a Christian.

That's it? That's all you can come up with?

Explain to me why "christians" cannot participate in a flamefest?
Where is that written? It's only viewed as hypocritcal by christian
haters like yourself who cannot come up with anything else that would
truly warrant the claim.

I personally don't know of any who have. I only know them to pray that
the war ends so lives are not lost. I hear them pray for people on both
sides.

I have never killed anyone so I've I got that one covered. That's why
the Amish and other religious groups will not participate in war. There
are people who refuse to kill another human. Is that good enough for you?


Rev. Steve "you just can't kill for Jesus"

And many dont.

R White says:

But you asked why someone would think christianS were hypocritical. Not just
you.
So, being that the primary commandment is "Thou shalt not kill", why are there
so many christians in the Army? And don't tell me they all joined up to wash
uniforms....
If you are a true christian, then you should not even consider joining the
army.


And many dont.

Doesn't mean that there aren't many who do. Even for you, that was weak ;-)
It only takes two for the statement "christians are hypocritical" to be
absolutely true.

For you, in about 3 seconds of thinking, yes.

Christ said "Treat others the way you would have them treat you: this
sums up the law and the prophets." Your viciousness in these
flameflests sure isn't very Christian.

I'm just talking about you above. The hypocrisy of 99% of Christians is
so easy to point out I'm not going to bother. But if you really want me
too...

That is just me.

That would a be question for them to answer since I was never in the Army,
and never in the military during war time. If you want to know why, then go
to the source since I'm not qualified to answer for anyone but myself.

If you are a true christian, then you should not even consider joining the
army.

Again, ask those who are in the Army and claim to be a true Christian.
That doesn't concern me in any way, shape or form. I served in the Navy.

And many dont.

Not unlike "mountain bikers are liars".

Ok, you win. Good for you.

Greg, your 100% correct. I've let those who oppose me with their
insults and derogatory remarks get the best of me and responded in
kind. I was all prepared to get all insulting with you, but I'm sitting
here at my keyboard saying to myself "Gregs right, I'm wrong". Too bad
I had to go and reply to JD before I read your post, just reinforces
the negative image you and others have of me.

No need. I'm sure my behavior here has done enough damage.

Forgive me. Seriously.

Yeah. Shape up. Start by getting rid of our mountain bike(s).

I am working on creating wildlife habitat that is off-limits to
humans ("pure habitat"). Want to help? (I spent the previous 8
years fighting auto dependence and road construction.)

So just how many mountain bikes do you have? And why would you want us
to get rid of your mountain bikes?
