That one single line, even plucked from context, could I guess be interpreted to mean only one thing for me: That I am repulsed and offended by those who'd not see many fundamentalists (blacks in this case) who'd
use that highly suspect reference source to base the use of blanket conemnation. Hell, I'm still coming to terms with my own ethnicity for that matter. I hold no other to a standard to which I'm not equally willing to hold myself. Be sure of it.

naughty and playainda336 are the only black Christian fundamentalists on this board as far as I know. Maybe you should talk to them. Either way, the argument is pointless.

naughty is a C. fundamtentalist???
You're joking. I'd never have suspected in honesty. And as for playinda... I won't "playinta" that homophobe further.

We know that the Bible is a falsified document, not the result of godly inspiration but the works of mere mortals, some with good intentions, most with bad. You'd be surprised how uncomfortable people become when their religion is brought up, even if it's not done in an aggressive or disagreeable way. Ask the average Christian a legitimate question about his or her faith, and they usually don't want to talk about it anymore (I've seen this particular situation occur on no less than 20 occasions that I can think of). I guess it's "dangerous" to make people question (even a little bit) what they've been raised to believe.

It's in an effort to expose precisely what you write above that I initiated this thread Dilz. That's why (for many here) the argument is
anything but 'pointless'.

Well, I think I've said my piece. I'll do my best not to over-exert myself.

Yes. Youhave said your piece well And you've said it well. Now for Christ's sake don't strain something..
