I get that. But Ghav, supposedly, is. TyrReborn Send a noteboard - 04/09/2023 12:09:55 AM

Am I not allowed to talk to a supposed fellow Christian about something we both believe? Is that somehow "off the deep end" or "crazy"?

I'm sure you got that, and I'm not sure I believe in anything anymore.

I'm much more concerned about your growth as a person in this world.

You are still young compared to me. I'm an old man. I used to be more like you. Then I had close family members who turned out to be those who's choices led to being condemned by strict Bible standards. I had to make a choice.

I chose family and tolerance.

In my old age, I embrace live and let live. I'm a libertarian so I neither need nor want the government to legislate based on my personal morality. That would be anathema to my "government that governs least" philosophy.


And as an American I agree with you. As an American, I have no problem with trans people.

But I do have a problem with transing kids. If kids are not old enough to make decisions for themselves, they are not old enough to change themselves. As I said to Lego, if saying "leave kids alone" is somehow an "attack" on trans people, then yes, even as an American, they deserve that "attack".



Yeah I'm well aware that when Jesus said about the adulteress, "let the one who is sinless cast the first stone," after all the Pharisees left he told her, "go your way and sin no more."

"... and sin no more."



But he was Jesus. And I am not.

Keep you beliefs, I don't challenge them. But try a little more compassion and let God sort it out, if He exists.


I have no choice; God will sort it out. But I don't want anyone to end up in Hell.

You don't believe in it, and that's fine. But Ghav supposedly does. So let me discuss it with them, k?

You're entitled to your optimistic view TyrReborn - 05/08/2023 04:24:33 PM 798 Views
You only think your view is realistic because you haven't studied enough history. The Shrike - 06/08/2023 04:04:34 PM 841 Views
You're entitled to your optimistic view. *NM* TyrReborn - 06/08/2023 09:18:39 PM 362 Views
Not only is this statistically incorrect, it's historically incorrect. Ghavrel - 08/08/2023 11:35:42 PM 863 Views

You didn't cherry pick anything. You just decided that the consensus of experts is incorrect. Ghavrel - 14/08/2023 11:37:05 PM 847 Views
Died of =/= died from, and died during =/= killed TyrReborn - 17/08/2023 04:58:08 PM 855 Views
I don't think so Tom - 07/08/2023 01:54:05 PM 817 Views
These facts would cause you to be denounced as a "putinite fascist"... TyrReborn - 07/08/2023 05:45:05 PM 768 Views

I just can't buy that the political and academic class will give up their grip so easily. TyrReborn - 08/08/2023 05:49:58 PM 762 Views
Academics have been pro Marxism for over 100 years. It's nothing new. *NM* damookster - 08/08/2023 05:59:55 PM 386 Views
Maybe. But they've never been this spiteful or spoiled before. TyrReborn - 09/08/2023 01:29:30 PM 737 Views
No, they only recruited students to spy for the Soviets *NM* damookster - 14/08/2023 06:18:58 PM 359 Views
