You, sir, are not in a position to determine that. If you think you are then you are filled with a spirit of self righteous elitism. I am not a "I see a legalist behind every bush" person like JTullock, so I won't say that you are legalistic in your attitude. However, if JTullock measured you like he measures everyone else HE would probably call you a judgmental legalist!
You guys can't see the forest for the trees so I give up! Wander on from tree to tree and I will recognized that each tree is a part of the forest. I will maintain my balance and call you brother and value your contributions to the kingdom and you keep on vilifying and belittling every conservative as some weak, insipid loser who is hiding behind the skirts of separation.
Excuse me while I go throw up!  |

An old Indian proverb said, don't judge another man until you walk a mile in his moccasins.
You and CC1 would both do well to heed the old Indian's advice. Plow your field and leave me to plow mine and don't sit over there and tell others why it is I plow my rows the way I do. You just don't have any idea! |

Hey CC1 it looks as if he is giving up. Yea for us!
Phil, truth is that no one is telling anyone how to plow the field. I am trying to show you why I plow at all. You are trying to show me that you have to plow it, no other options but plow. Also you tell that we have to plow with the exact same equipment you use. Sounds silly?
I do not consider myself a judge. If you are feeling that I am judging you I am sorry you are wrong. I will be honest with you I don't care what your convictions are or anyone for that matter. I want to know if you show mercy, love God, full of the spirit. Those are the things that matter to Mr. JTullock. I appreciate yours and everyone else conviction, but they do not mean anything to me because they are personal convictions. That is how it should be. However, CC1, I and other mod/libs do not get the same treatment from some of the UC's out there. We are always measured by your measuring sticks. You and some others never allow God to measure us because you are so caught up in measuring us.
I will agree to disagree on this front, but you must not in the future attacl people that do not believe the same as you do. The elitest mentality does not become you very well. Bro. you may not be a legalist at your core, but we can only go with the info we have in front of us. Do you wish now to continue this conversation?
