And Are You Prepared to Stand With the Chicken?

You'll also notice that not only did Jesus not quote from the non-existent New Testament, but he adamantly disagreed with a lot of the interpretation of the scripture he did quote.

The plain meaning of scripture says that working on the Sabbath is a crime punishable by death. Jesus didn't accept that interpretation, he reinterpreted it.

Jesus himself disproves the "scripture interprets itself" and is perfectly clear argument.

Nope. Jesus did no such thing. Jesus didn't quote the New Testament because there was no New Testament until well after the resurrection and ascension of Christ. Christ is the reason for a New Testament.

Jesus didn't reinterpret the sabbath law either, he made it clear to the Pharisees that they had gone overboard with the sabbath law adding things to it. Try reading that again.

Now Jase, anytime you wish you PM me these scriptures Jesus disagreed with and we can discuss them.

CHICK Fil A, that is.
I wonder how many Christians are ready to make their stand against loss of free speech.
I wonder how many are prepared for the next attack against Christians.
Maybe you should get ready.

loss of free speech????? i am sorry, did the gay right activists actually try to silence Chick fil A, or are they merely trying to counter protest?

since when is there a double standard when it comes to free speech?

ie when christians are stating their point of view, or offer counter arguments to point of view non christian stated, counted as free speech, but when non christians tries to offer their counter arguments, it is not free speech? but attack on christian's right to free speech?

so it seems to me you are accusing them of attacking our right to free speech, when in reality that is exactly what you are trying to do to them, ie to silence and shut them up. only then, in your opinion, they are not attacking us then?

but to answer your question, yes, i am against gay marriage.

but no, i actually do not side myself with many ( not all) of main stream christians effort towards the gay community.

that is because i cant help but noticed many of those main stream christians seem to take liberty with the scripture, and start to hurt the gay community from false claims such as gay made the choice to be gay, they need to get therapy ( scientific unproven) , gays are more likely to be padophile, to gays should not be allowed to adopt because all of them are living a disgusting, depraved lifestyle and are capable of turning their children gay etc etc

sorry, but i do not side myself with slanderers and i know Lord is on my side, rather, i choose to be on His side.

It's against free speech to tell a company they arent welcome in a town/city because of the CEO's views.

actually, it is not agaisnt free speech at all for a local community to be against a particular business coming into their community.

it has happened with other big businesses like Wal Mart, so what makes you think fil a chicken deserve special treatment?

moral of the story, local community has every right to decide who they want and dont want to come to their local community.

to deprive them of the right to express themselves, is agaisnt free speech.

If you can find me an example anywhere in the Bible of God sanctioning, ordaining or blessing any "marital" relationship other than one husband and one wife, I'll be happy to listen to your reasoning. Let me know how that works out.

thankyou for your insights


I could talk of the Story of Ruth and Naomi

but I won't.

I will this week, and tell them verbally

Some 18+ million of us voiced our concerns last Wednesday... way to go! It was their biggest day in the history of the business. Guess we do have a voice, eh? (Of course, you didn't hear that on the mainstream media...did you?)

welcome

many of you can speak of traditional marriage and I can speak of Gay marriage.
We both have free speech rights to speak about our respective ideas.

simple...neither is infringing on the rights of the other if we allow civil discourse

either you are admitting to me that the Bible tells of everything and all I have to do is find it in one of the books, or, you are admitting that the Bible does not have all the answers.

Good for you doctor, and Cathy is laughing all the way to the bank.

Actually, I would love to hear this story. Particularly, how Ruth married Boaz if she was already married to Naomi. That's a new one.

exactly, but as it relates the Bible however. We come at ends with gay marriage as every marriage in the Bible is one man, one woman. polygamy etc etc are explained like I stated before in post 132.

This is a bit off topic, but I don't think that ANYBODY is being deprived of free speech rights. Chick-Fil-A has a perfect right to sponsor Exodus International or whatever groups they wish. And if they choose to support these groups, they need to accept that people, like myself, have strong opinions to the contrary, and that they will probably lose business and should, as competent business people, be willing to accept that people aren't going to like it when they take stances on issues like this. They are not being limited in their free speech rights. On the other hand, even for pro-gay people like myself, calling them bigots and homophobes is completely uncalled for

No, I'm telling you that it has all the answers. It has the answers to your questions too, as God answered them by labeling those issues as sin. That means He didn't sanction the marriages you tried to pass off as "biblically traditional," but had long before labeled them sinful acts. Man chose to ignore those directives.

You bet'cha! I ain't chicken.

Does anybody else from Atlanta here keep seeing "stand with the chicken" and immediately what comes to mind is to go to Marietta, and stand by the big chicken?
