Save a cow - eat a vegetarian!
Does it surprise you Christians are human too and can make mistakes and ask forgiveness etc?

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

No, of course not.
What surprises me is that you are trying to argue that godlessness leads to immorality when your data shows that pastors are in fact on average more immoral than the average Joe.
To make people look at less porn, we need to stop letting our children slide into the immoral pit that is pastorhood!

I know I am probably offending lots of people, but this strikes me as absolutely hilarious.

If a Christian makes a mistake by disobeying God then it is that Christians godless decision that led to the immorality.
We all have it in us. We all inherit a sinful side.
It is this side that leads to immorality, not our good side which is in the image of God. Thats what Jesus came to do, He was born without that sinful nature and gave himself up for us for our sins.

But you're still not answering the underlying question. Why do christians do such things that you consider a sin more often than atheists? Seems to me that the only conclusion I can draw from this is that to reduce behavior that you consider a sin, we should start an active policy reducing the number of christians.TheListener said:
