This is a Christian-only Forum.
The non-Christians must use the "open" Forums.
Didn't you know that?
"Secondly, there is scripture where God says to the Jews: 'My name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.' "
What does this have to do with anything?
I don't understand what you are even trying to say.
"Thirdly, they are upset because people who claim to be full of love are just as bad if not worse than themselves."
So, which of the Forum members here are those ones who claim to be full of Love?
And, then, which of those FEW people here who actually claim to be full of Love are the ones who are "mis-behaving"? |

I've struggled with it the whole time I've been here. When Christians get together and talk, it should be to the end that we edify one another. Nothing wrong with having passion for our belief's. Our passion should also be as strong in good-will towards our fellow man it should be highly demonstrated in our conversation. |

great points!

Yeah, but what does that have to do with the Christian Forums?
We are all Christians here.
So, if non-believers are upset, they will always be upset.
But, here on the Forum that shouldn't make any difference.
And, if non-believers don't like what Christians are doing, they must be REALLY upset at what other non-believers are doing.
We're all Christians here? If we were before, we're not anymore. Have you been in Christian Apologetics, Debates on Homosexuality, or this forum lately?
