So does that mean by Ezekiel 16's time jewelry was okay? By the way, where does the bible say God deemed jewelry something His people could not handle whereas they could beforehand? You are beginning to concoct doctrines as you go, now.

Your logical fallacy is called the "Fallacy of Neglected Aspect." That is, you present one-sided arguments, all the while ignoring the other side.

Wrong. I know the bible noted jewelry with harlotry, showing I ignore nothing of your argument. But in all your words, you refuse to answer me. I have explanations. Jewelry for SOME MANNERS is wrong, but not for all, and that means you cannot paint everyone who wears jewelry as a harlot, especially since the bible does not relate your distinction that claims TIME changed God's mind about the issue. lol What about Jesus' time when he mentioned the prodigal and a ring?

It's like you will argue for anti-jewelry stances no matter what.

To make matters worse, most of the arguments that you foster are extracted from figurative passages, which as we've seen, cuts both ways!.

Show me, then, why God used jewelry if we were meant to not use it alt all. You are hedging.

When it comes to the literal condemnation of jewelry, you simply sweep it under the rug. Sorry Charlie...ain't happenin' here!

IOW< stick your head in the sand, and you mean you refuse to actually answer me.

Be back tommorrow....forced to run for the day! Should have more time tommorrow.

With no more answers than today?
