Finally. Someone with some sense in this nutjob place. I thought I was the only one.

Define "some sense" in terms of God's word.

Christian rock band song (since some people here seem to believe that christian rock is impossible)!

[pornographic music video deleted]

Not only does this character seem to be in league with the agendas of lyberals and homersexuells alike, now he uses this god fearing board to promote his pornographic filth? If he so desperatly wants to burn in the eternal fires, couldn't he at least show some concern for the innocent souls of children that may accidently see this smut?

This is the internet... this is not private property. The internet is free land for anyone to roam, my brother.

Ah, here we go: The free land of pornography! This is the true meaning of that. Thought so, buddy!

One wonders from whom she needs rescuing? If she allies herself with his unspeakable positions, it can't be pornography. That seems obvious!

Re: HELLO MY MISGUIDED FRIENDS!

You seem to think that "authority" only means government. The Bible also recognizes private-sector authority, see:

Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ. Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but like slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart. Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men - Ephesians 6:5-7 and 1 Timothy 6:1-2.

Also see "Honor your father" in the 10 commandments. God takes private-sector authority very seriously, for example He commands the killing of children who disrespect private-sector authority:

Matthew 15:4
"For God commanded, saying, HONOR THY FATHER AND MOTHER: and, HE THAT CURSETH FATHER OR MOTHER, LET HIM DIE THE DEATH."

Leviticus 20:9 “For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.”

Deuteronomy 21:18-21 “If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them: Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard. And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.”

Jesus criticises those who do not follow the above laws: Mark 7:9

PRIVATE-SECTOR AUTHORITY IS STILL AUTHORITY. WE ARE YOUR AUTHORITY HERE BECAUSE GOD GAVE US AUTHORITY OVER YOU HERE.
