WWC Open Season!

[WalksWithChrist]

Hello all. There was some ruckus when I signed up here, so I though a thread would be a good way to clear things up.

My profile actually has been marked as "Moderate" for a while now. I have done some light hanging out in WWMC. Pretty sporadic really.

My purpose for signing up here was to have "creds" in case I ever needed them again and in the meantime get to know my conservative side better.

Yes, I definitely have a conservative side!!


Feel free to take this opportunity to ask me anything and everything you like.

Light flaming allowed. lol

 

[GreenMunchkin]

I already know you pretty well, so I'll just give y'a hug

 

[Criada]

Welcome!

Good to have you here - looking forward to getting to know you!
God bless you.

Seriously, it will be good to get to know you better here. Thanks for the open door!

 

[ContentInHim]

Flaming - no way. But toasting? That's a completely different story!

Hmm.... you were liberal er sumthin? I really have a hard time wit labels, most of the time I havat ask my wife what I am, she knows what an how etc I believe what I do from politcs to Christ etc so she normally jes tells me what I am an I agree

Trek is where it's at As a good freind of mine is fond of sayin WWC is a good bro.

Well, it's interesting. If one agrees with the forum's statement about Conservative Christianity, there's no question about it or need to say that you have a "conservative side" whatever that means.

So do you?

Absolutely. I usually end up upsetting both liberals and conseratives alike when I oppose abortion and the death penalty at the same time.


I don't see any reason why a person can't have different facets depending on the issue/situation.


Thanks to all for the welcome. I'll take a poke around in a bit and see what's going on.

That's the trouble wit throwin folks into a box isn't it? I for example am against abortion, but on the other hand I'm for the death penalty... even that's probly not a good way of puttin it.. since the justice system is such a wreck... best jes leave that for one of those debate threads. Any time we start throwin folks into a box you end up like me, everbody throws you out into the cold, an eventually you've got to git your own box an then start tryin to throw folks into it to band togeather wit you an the like.... nother soap box comin.... my wife is on er way up to San Antone, Tx to meet me, so I've got a couple of hours to do nuthin but sit here an git all kinds of bent out of shape bout a buncha different thins hehe

He certainly can, but that's if he's a pragmatist or liberal, not a conservative. I am guessing that you are not a conservative but agree with conservatives on a case by case basis although not for the reasons we would speak to those issues.

Thanks to all for the welcome. I'll take a poke around in a bit and see what's going on.

Absolutely. Give us some good threads to work on.

 

[GreenMunchkin]

Heh, we've had the death penalty debate. Want for me to bump it?

 

[Albion]

What inconsistency is there in that? None, really. But as always, we have to know why we decide as we do.

 

[Addicted2~Jesus]

I'm sorry, I read that twice an didn't git whatchya meant I've been up since bout three this mornin, I hadn't seen my faimly in almost 6 weeks an even though they are ours away from me right now an were even more so at three I jes hadn't gotten enough sleep an couldn't sleep anymore.. annoyin, anyways all that to say I donno whatchya meant hehe sorry.

Oh, it's not that important. I was just thinking that people often say that being against abortion and for the death penalty are contradictory positions. I think they are not such at all, although liberals try to tell us that. In the one case, we are for the innocent's right to life; in the other, the person involved is not an innocent victim but has charted his own course.

 

[Addicted2~Jesus]

Ahh yeah, I see an I agree, the two aren't related in my opinion. Yes it's still death., but there are huge differneces that I'm not goin to git into here is all.

I have been realizing over the past few months that I really don't fit neatly into any one "box."

I have a buddy who's a hardcore liberal and he gets mad at me when I won't identify myself. lol

Actually, I'm not a liberal either using the same logic. And I'm ok with that! lol

Heh, we've had the death penalty debate. Want for me to bump it?

Absolutely. That's one of my few issues I will jump in and talk about even tho I know it will get heated.

Shoot me a link too (or post here)...I'm awful at finding stuff. lol

 

[~*Lady Trekki*~]

I think we're ALL conservatives on a case by case basis.

SCREW Labels!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[LivingLifeHisWay]

Hi there. Welcome!

Questions, questions..........

How would you define grace?

 

[Criada]

Well - I haven't disagreed with you so far!
I think many of us are here cos conservative is a closer fit than anything else...
Don't like boxes, anyway!
