Have you tried driving down the middle of the road? You'll get hit coming and going if you stay in the middle.
The way it seems is you have two choices:
1. Choose a side
2. Wear a helmet.

It is making the journey a lot less pleasant than it could be.

I think this is a different discussion altogether. There are extreme cases where we have to disfellowship someone, but they are exceedingly rare (far more rare than those who practice this regularly would purport), AND those cases refer to believers who have strayed; not sinners who have never known Christ.
Do you have a scripture reference that calls us to shun sinners who have never known Christ?
nope... My point was to people who deny the truth.
If you are representing your beliefs but are not able to ID yourself due to....uhhh.....well, circumstances, and this is the way you really feel, then I apologize for saying, "Stick it."
Would you like to tell us YOUR real name?

It better be good!!! It's an hour and forty ......1:40 minutes long! Wow!

Yeah, he tends to go on for a while. So did the Apostle Paul. I bet you attend one of those 30 minute churches.

You'll have to understand...I assumed you were just faking your arguments. You see, I tried to do the fake-con thing once and I found out it was really difficult to argue against the libs. My heart just wasn't in it and I discovered that when my heart wasn't in my arguments, it was really difficult to passionately defend my position. I ended up getting trounced in arguments as I tried to fight for the conservative position.
I've seen most all your posts since you've arrived and you've been SO bad at arguing your case and I've watched you get trounced repeatedly, that naturally, I just assumed you were faking it.
If you're trying to get me riled up...it worked. Let's throw down right here. I just can't decide whether to be Ezra or Nehemiah.:
BTW, it's interesting to me how you guys always claim cons. can't defend themselves and they get beat over and over on this forum. Funny thing is, when I looked over some of the archived posts, cons. used to eat you guys for breakfast lunch and dinner. Joey B. tore you all up on more than one occasion. Bro. Badejo was KILLED on AMF and he comes back claiming that no one could refute his arguments. Bunch of liberal hogwash. Go give your brothers a holy kiss and celebate your liberal freedom.

The pendulum swings from one extreme to the other, but it always comes back to center.
