Sorry for your pain, and welcome to CC. I've been through a divorce, and I wouldn't wish it on anyone (not even on the ex).

If you have listened to that particular song lately, then you have your answer. If not, nothing I say will make a difference.

Some people "feel the effects" after one sip. Does that mean they are "tipsy"? Is "sober minded" in context actually referring to alcohol? No, it is not. It only appears once in the KJV, in Titus 2:6, and in context, it means "having demonstrated good judgment". If you want to make a...

Why are you bringing up "tipsy", and how do you define it? You used the phrase, "in moderation" before.

Because you participate in the same hypocrisy, you are equally guilty.

You are free to choose to abstain completely, for any reason at all. You are free to your opinions, whatever they may be. However, making judgments of others when you don't know everyone, is unwarranted.

Wow... so it's wrong for me to point out someone else's bad behaviour, but it's okay for you to point out (what you think is) my bad behaviour? How wacky can you be? Get some integrity!

With my tax refund, I will be getting new summer tires (~$1000). Given other hoped-for events, I may also be investing in a special kind of getaway and some new furniture.

Perhaps you think it is acceptable for Phoneman to show "disrespect, immaturity, rudeness, vitriol, spitefulness", etc., because you happen to agree with his theology? I hope not, for that would make you a hypocrite like he is.

How would your fruit be distinguished from theirs?

Uh huh. Nice Christian character there, Phoneman.

He will likely get increasingly frustrated and abusive, and then he will flagrantly contravene the rules and get himself booted. If you want to report him, please do. I have chosen to address him directly... for now. :)

A powerful voice is a gift given to many people; it does nothing to indicate the legitimacy of the singer's spiritual walk. Take a listen to the song, "What If I Stumble" and see where the band members' hearts were at the time. Maybe you're judging the wrong things?

You, sir, are a hypocrite. You claim not to be judging motives, but only doctrines, yet here you deliberately misrepresent two members' user names (as well as their views). If that isn't judging the person, I don't know what is. As I said before, you are sick, and you need help.

Wait... planets? Solar system? You're talking to people who don't believe such things exist. It seems their imaginations are rather two-dimensional in this regard. ;)

Someone who holds to "OSAS" does not necessarily believe that salvation is a license to sin. Not only are you confusing correlation (questionable in itself) with causation, but you are painting a very large group of people with a very large brush. How about this: IF you ever come across someone...

Not taking sides on this particular matter, but there is certainly far too much of this kind of behaviour on this site. None of us has a corner on the truth, and we are instructed to be gentle with those who disagree, not demonize them.

Isn't that every thread in the BDF? ;)

While you appear to be making a logical argument, you did not take it far enough, end with a non sequitur and have nothing valid or sound as a result. Do you honestly believe that women are forbidden to speak in the Christian Church merely because Adam was formed before Eve? Seriously? There...

Apology? How utterly un-Canadian! Wait...
