This is a multi-forum board. There more sections than not where Christians do not have to interact with non-Christians, if that's your preference.
I understand that, but as I wrote, I would expect that the non-Christians shouldn't mind to much if there are some Bible verses quoted in the discussion. If they dislike that, they are going to have a hard time here, I think.
Aw, how thoughtful for a sweet summer child of a forum member to be lecturing those that have been here nearly a decade or two on what to expect and what they should or shouldn't mind. It might behoove you to read up on the forum rules, if you care about contributing. I hope your sojourn here is long and fruitful.
I was only pointing out that I ignore the quotes. A reminder that making arguments outside theology debates based entirely on bible quotes isn't particularly convincing to many people (including some Christians). I've been reading this forum for a decade.
I don't know why you think that I am lecturing people, as I simply expressed my wonder that there were people here that don't like to read Bible verses, but still be there reading these posts that contain them. Hans Blaster gave me afterwards an explication that satisfied me, as for his reasons to be participating on such discussions even if he didn't like the Bible verses in them, so I really don't know, why we are still discussing at length about the matter!Aw, how thoughtful for a sweet summer child of a forum member to be lecturing those that have been here nearly a decade or two on what to expect and what they should or shouldn't mind.

This section of the forum is open to non Christians. That’s why you find non Christians here in this part of the website.
This.
I will just say that whatever your reasons for being on a Christian forum, you are welcome and have a right to be here.
Little old ladies have been arrested for far less. Like praying in front of an abortion clinic. So, if we want to talk about inconsistencies, why not start with that?
Paul was a tent maker and Jesus was a carpenter.
I remember police interrupting many church services during Covid. Liberals did not seem to complain about that.
Respectfully, your scripture references are taken out of context and are not applicable to the situation. Nor did it answer the poster's question.
I think as well that the biblical context didn't involve breaking the law, and even that some people could be sometimes enjoying a lawful privilege to do something detrimental to you, such as taking some of your goods.
