If you want people to consider your "conservative Christian" fashion, you need to be respectful.  It's that simple.  And you're not doing that.

And just so you know, I'm a "conservative" Christian, too.  But if you want to win others for Christ, man, shoving your ideas down their throats and pissing people off isn't the way to do it.

@ Marcie: I never force others to believe. However, if people do not respect me, why respect them?

@ Roy: No.

lol...because if you're going to be a Christian you RESPECT other people no matter what you believe or what they believe.  Jesus didn't flick people off when they were spitting on Him...He loved them any way.

Did I ever say that respect is the same as love? I harbor no ill will towards anyone on JU.

Respect, though, is above the minimal standards of decency. I can remain decent, yet still believe someone to be a sophomoric vocabulary-impaired four year old.

Many people seem to have that belief about you.

But...continue on.  As I read, I find that you refuse to comprehend what any of the "old-timers" are telling you.  You come across as a smug, self-righteous know-it-all who doesn't have to follow the traditions of customs of the "country" he's in because he's above it all, and his culture is better.

So...the rest of the Christians here on JU have to pick up the pieces because you make us look like idiots.

Wonderful.

I was refering to swearing as vocabulary-impaired.

I claim to be no better, do I?

I'm sorry if I make us all look like idiots.
