    When did I ever say that? I said there would be no need for a men's or women's restroom if they made all of the stalls private. I'm advocating for privacy, not whipping it out in a little girl's face. If there was a private stall with a locking door, you can go in with your child and ensure...

    Ok? I'm sorry but what do video games have to do with civil rights? And you would because the right wing has indoctrinated you to believe that people should walk, talk, and act a certain way that is in line with Judeo-Christian values, not civil rights. Yes. Have people's rights really been...

    It's funny how one can be lock-step with conservative ideology and not be a conservative. I've seen him (or her) on here for a number of years and have never witnessed anything but conservative lead viewpoints. But I guess..... You may be thinking about the 20th century. In modern times...

    I think that is a very right-wing opinion which I respect. However, time has passed and a few new generations have been born since the civil rights law passed. With GLBT+ being now a protected class, they have the right to their privacy on the toilet. I understand that people's...

    You know I'm sure it does happen on the left. The thing is, it seems to me, that the right's agenda is more like passing laws in order to legislate Judeao-Christian values and protect the interests of corporations than protecting people's everyday civil rights. I mean even is schools, some...

    I askeed a couple questions about what they posted and I suggested the maybe they are the one with the problem and not society. You see, right-wing conservatives create threads like this in order to vilify transgender people. By making it about the separation of men and women and not about...

    I played football and wrestled. Are you really going to post something that eludes to a lack of ability to make shower stalls private? Do you think we aren't capable of putting up a participant and a door on shower stalls? They fact that I have spent many years in sports in the park board...

    That is the natural law on display when in comes to supply and demand. Women are demanding privacy so they can either supply it or lose business to someone who does supply the privacy they desire. This is funny. Some people cling so hard to conservatism that they demand that laws should be...

    It IS their business and I would think it's more profitable to make stalls that are private regardless of gender. Problem solved. No crybabies or whiners need to kick up a fuss at that point and business owners can protect themselves which is a win/win in my opinion

    I hate Repent of your sins to be Saved. it is a false gospel, lie from the pit of hell

    I can't say that I disagree. May God also bless you!

    I didn't "attack" or "goad" anybody. I basically said grow up.

    This doesn't happen often but it's good fuel for the conservative fire. Both sides I'm pretty sure know that all a business needs to do is put in locking doors that cut off outside exposure. People don't want to spend the money on upgrading their security so they do like you and blame...

    Would you support this?

    Because Liberal Arts is an art so it would make sense that Liberal Arts majors will be better equipped to make quality comedy. Especially when the politics of the Right are more comical, highlighting the hypocrisy of a group of people makes for higher quality comedy that "laugh at my show...

    Holiness Pentecostals: Why Does Everyone Hate Them?

    I think that why people end up going against Pentecostalism is that they preach pretty much from the book of Acts and don't always take into account the teaching of the rest of the Bible. As for my personal opinion, Pentecostalism places more of their faith in outward expressions of the Holy...

    When do we forgive?

    I think we should forgive whenever possible. Sometimes it is difficult to forgive so it takes time. Also I heard in a homily that sometimes we must forgive more than once if the wound is cut deep. Still, it is our calling to forgive so we must like I say, to the best of our ability

    Saved by Grace doesn't mean our works don't matter. Ephesian's over all context screams this.

    We completely agree here This is what I have unsuccessfully been trying to convey. The gift is free but once we are given that free gift, we must respond to it to the best of our ability. If we respond to the free gift of grace by believing through faith that we will be saved, we will be...

    I hate Repent of your sins to be Saved. it is a false gospel, lie from the pit of hell

    Amen~ Our "works" do not grant us faith, we are granted free grace. Still, our works are the evidence of our faith, not the cause of it. God gives us the free gift of grace. Through that gift, we are granted faith and we know that faith without works is dead. Not because we didn't merit...

    Is the Eucharist cannibalism?

    Why? I would like to hear more about your point of view. I wouldn't call myself "woke" as it were but I certainly lean toward "Progressive" on most issues. I am still conservative enough to believe that as individuals, it is more fruitful (spiritually and secularly) to follow traditional...

    Saved by Grace doesn't mean our works don't matter. Ephesian's over all context screams this.

    No, over and over again I have agreed that God's gift is free. Where we seem to disagree is when I say that the free gift allows us to live our faith. It's not the other way around. Ok, so now that we believe in Jesus, does he give us the strength to live a Christian life to the best of our...

    Saved by Grace doesn't mean our works don't matter. Ephesian's over all context screams this.

    So as we read the rest of the New Testament, do we read that there will be a judgment day? Your particular interpretation of the New Testament acknowledges that grace is a free gift, and so does mine. The difference is once we are granted the free gift of grace (through faith), what should we...
