The bugfuck thread was about the loony right Xstian for Israel Summit. Yet, you chose to be offended by it
If you go to that thread and you read my response to you, I specifically said I was NOT offended by you posting it. I was offended by what some of the Christian Right are doing in it. Of course I am. They are doing just what you and others said: hiding behind their beliefs to fleece congregations and using their "extreme" beliefs to attempt to influence polititcs in the middle east. I find that just as wrong as you do. That was made very clear in my response there. End of that issue.

so, do you believe in the same things the bugfucks do? I think we should be told, because it would clarify a lot of things
First of all, I'm not going to refer to anyone as "bugfucks." Please show some maturity. What I believe is long and complex and I'm not going to waste my energy even beginning to explain it for your laughs and ridicule. You have no "right" to know nor would it clarify anything in your mind. However, I will restate what I have already written before. I do NOT support what far right extremists do as far as efforts to "bring on" Armageddon. I do NOT believe in the concept of a "secret" rapture where believers will be silently removed from Earth. And, most of all, I do not support our current administration using Christianity to hide behind while doing things that are absolutely anti-Scriptural. So, no, I do not believe as the so-called "bugfucks" do in any of those instances.

you don't come running to the defense of any other religious freedom than your own - why is that?)
That's an absolute lie and you know it. If I went through and counted the number of times I have said that it's not right to degrade, mock, stifle ANY religious or political beliefs, the numbers would be in triple digits. Do you even read my posts or just automatically jump into attack mode? For instance, back on the "bugfuck" thread, I made a post saying the video was interesting and commenting on it. You assumed I was "offended" and rattled off some snipey response. I posted again, being very polite, thanking you for posting the video and saying it was very informative. Never heard another word out of you there. No, not until another opportunity to jump in with both barrels in attempts to mock again. Your methods are showing

It's your choice to play the part of the victim, but it's tedious
I have never played the victim role. I don't know where you get such a fantasy. All I have done is explain over and over and over why I have the same right as you do to speak my mind. It's soooooo tedious when I do it but soooooooo enlightening when you do it, aye?

Jenny (camille) is far kinder than I am (you know this already)
I don't know either one of you to be honest. I didn't see her post as either kind or unkind. She said some things that I didn't find factual or fitting pertaining to me and I responded to them politely and attempted to answer her questions. Maybe it did no good, maybe it did. Who knows? I figure if anything I said didn't sit well, she could always ask again or respond.
quote:
and she made her point to you in the most diplomatic of fashions
And I responded to her in the same manner. I was not rude or condescending to her in any way. I don't think you actually read the same posts I write. My exact ending words to her were: "I'm sorry you can't see my real motivation rather than just seeing me as a defensive paranoid who thinks no one likes me. That's not the case at all. Thanks for your reply, camille." How is that rude when she just spent paragraphs telling me how "hyper defensive" I am and how I have delusions that I'm being attacked and no one likes me? I'd say, if anything, I was more diplomatic than she was. Yet, as usual, you only see fault with what I type.
quote:
It seems as though you're feeling rather put upon. I wonder why?
Wonder away, dear, if it gives you something to ponder. I do not, nor have I ever, felt "put upon" by you or anyone else who cannot manage to hold a civil discourse with me without resorting to cheap shots and name calling. That "turn the other cheek" comment last night? That was classic.
I'm finished nit-picking back and forth with you. You win. Prayer works and God is real but I'm going to do as you demanded and "shut up" about it because this ... ..... is mind-numbing. Mock and laugh away. It's so adorable and really shows the depth of your character and intellect. Thankies for all your scholarly debate here and elsewhere, dear. Walt Whitman once said "Dismiss what insults your soul." So, I will.......God bless..........luci
