List your questions whiney Sue. You're obfuscating for your oppositional defiance.UNI88 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 16, 2023 6:32 pmThat's three times you haven't answered my questions.
I'll be generous and still answer yours with a few examples of corruption in the church:
- Selling of indulgences
- Simony
- the Albigensian crusade
- Sexual abuse by priests/pastors and their cover-up
- Jerry Falwell Jr and the pool boy
- Televangelists preying on people to enrich themselves
I'm not sure how anyone could argue that the medieval church didn't have serious corruption issues. The question isn't whether the church has been corrupt, it's whether that corruption has corrupted church doctrine.
Man that looks like an internet list, but we've come to expect your laziness. Let's see it,.

Now, one of the words has eight letters - say it slowly and sound out all the syllables, I think you can do it in spite of your hundreds of posts here suggesting otherwise.

And then your comment on me "knowing better". See? A total morals scold. You even hate supposed "good Christian" Mike Johnson. No Christian apparently meets your moral high bar. Mr Judgy. Mr Pharisee.
Everyone looks for governance that benefits them including any business hero of yours you can come up with. Some people look for governance that benefits everyone. Some think it’s ok to even vote on these things. Community morals are a thing….including among Christians. Why does that upset you so much?
If we’re not expecting governance that benefits us, what’s the point?
Nice troll paragraph with Mike Johnson though.
In summary, supporting Trump is immoral and un-American. Be you Christian, godless pagan, or atheist.

Man that looks like an internet list, but we've come to expect your laziness. Let's see it,.
I think you and I would both agree that humankind is imperfect and is prone to being prideful, selfish, greedy, ambitious, etc.
Try as you might; you can't deny that these imperfections have led to corruption in the Christian church and that the examples I listed are not exhaustive.
Now the question in a nutshell - how can you be certain that selfish, and greedy individuals haven't subverted God's word to further their ambitions?
If you can't respond intelligently to that question, please take a seat on the bench and hope that Joe can weigh in.

Gotta love the fact the class is an Ethnic studies class, but they have to shoehorn in a question about gender.
My daughter is taking the same class at her high school. She's got an amazing heart and truly wants equality for everyone...just like the majority of kids, but has now realized she has to "play the game" to get an A.

I'll refer you again to Paul and how he was continuously telling the churches of the day that they kept missing the message. They kept trying to practice the law when those requirements were no longer needed.
Regardless, the main point, that man cannot change, is that if you accept Christ, you are saved.
Now, are you going to finally answer the question as to what you believe?
