Re: How about now?

Forum standards, mostly. If you're going to discuss something like the Bible, you have to determine what exactly is under discussion. Allowing different Bible translations just opens the door to "but my Bible says something totally different...", and that wouldn't serve any purpose save offending those who are looking to be offended.

Having done some investigation on my own into the matter, I believe the King James is (overall) the most accurate translation available. This is a subject beyond the remit of this forum (or my willingness to voluminously rehash several years of reading from many different sources), so if you're curious, I encourage you to check into it yourself. Wikipedia is a good place to start.

I would be interested in these sources as well (for rebuking purposes) but Wikipedia? I can't believe you put stock in that as a "resource".

...Wikipedia? I can't believe you put stock in that as a "resource".

That's why I tried (and failed, I guess) to specify it as a place to start. Any information gleaned from there must be checked and cross-referenced (though the new rules they brought in a while ago have noticeably decreased the incidence of "vandalism" editing, at least).

Re: How about now?

Great, so if someone starts a cult that gets offended by you consuming oxygen, what will you do?

I am only referring to legitimate offenses, if people get offended by my simply stating my political views, I don't consider that to be a legitimate offense.

Why?

If more people were like this, then I think we would have less turmoil in this world. I still think there should be proper punishment, but it shouldn't be rooted in vengeance.

If you guys allow me to to upload videos, then I'll think about becoming a true christian. Well, what do you say?

Sorry. We are not into Hiphop or Rap.

So people are only allowed to be offended by things that you consider to be legitimately offensive? How is this not another example of you attempting to force your own (baseless) morality on others?

More people were like what? Proper punishment for what?

So "legitimate offenses" is things you feel are offensive. I find that offensive

Well we already have lots of people out there who think the world should be run at their own convenience. How's that working out?

Now if we ran the World according to God's rules as laid out in the KJV1611 Bible, there would be no question as to what is offensive and what isn't.

What are you on about, numpty?

Your views are of absolutely no significance to us.

As true Believers we Live by the Word of God, who are you to question that?
