Cue up the hate (e)?mail!
so far, not so bad…. so far
Loved the piece. Bravo!
Thank you, kind sir!
I couldn’t finish it as I couldn’t stomach the crap you wrote. You realy do not grasp how scripture works do you? You are like so many other people who need to see the exact words they want or they will say the Bible doesn’t teach something.
That is purely an excuse to not follow God’s word. God said—’Why do ye call me Lord, Lord yet do not do the things I say.’
Think about it.
Oh dear…
First, use a better translation than the KJV.
Second, for someone who doesn’t like to read what I write, you read ever post here.
Third, you are an idiot.
Fourth, you have no idea what Scripture says.
Fifth, you are a moron
1) I couldn’t finish your comment as I couldn’t stomach the drivel you wrote. And just so there is no confusion, yes, I’m mocking you!
2) I’ll second what Joel says, use a better translation than the KJV. Might I suggest the CEB or the NRSV.
3) Since you didn’t read the op-ed, you have no right to comment on it as anything you say might say makes you look like a complete idiot.
better yet, read it in the original Greek!
yes, that means an arduous effort to undertake study of an ancient language.
Don’t you know, Naum – God speaks in Dave’s voice, which is English.
Good job. Did you mean homogeneous rather than hegemonic?
No.
I wanted to use hegemonic to indicate the control segments of the population used to have.
