Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire The " I Believe " Forum

Okay, I'm done preachin'

Too many Christians and anti-Christians alike share the same misconception � that it's the duty of every Christian to make sure that everyone else be a Christian, preferably of the same flavor that he is. That's defintely not the impression that I get from many years of assiduous study of the New Testament and its times.

My indelible impression is that Jesus expects each of us to share freely and gently but none of us to insist that anyone else see things as we do. He isn't that pushy � why should any of us aspire to be "more" than He was, in any respect?

I have no issue with ignoring a thread that doesn't interest me, whatever the topic and for whatever the reason. I also have no issue with folks ignoring me for whatever reason. As such, I see "Hunter's Campfire" as THE perfect place to discuss matters of faith. If a guy doesn't like that, then he doesn't have to sit between me and whomever I am having such a discussion with. He should just go to some other part of the Campfire and not whine about it. After all, it is a big place Rick has made for us here..............

Was that supposed to be a Catholic reference???

Thank you.

You intentionally attacked people's most deeply held beliefs, knowing you would start a shiitstorm - because - you - were - bored?

I just want to make sure I have that correct.

I see no reason to push my beliefs on someone, either you believe or you don't how hard is that to copmprehend. I don't look at the bible the same way as my Parish priest does that make me less of a Catholic. You get what you take from the teaching and reading. fer cryin' out loud, my grand-Mother is a Mennonite, I have a lot of relatives that belong to the Church of Christ, I have Baptists, and myslef an my parents are Catholic. Do ya think we try to push each other to the others belief during family reunions. NOT HAPPENIN! ANd I live in the heart of Born Again America, we have the headquarters for Focus on the Family here. What a bucnh of Maroons. They wouldn't be so bad, if they would quit tryin' to tell me how I should live my life, that is the garbage I don't believe in. Les

I know! A new law. Separation of church and campfire

No dickhead...I intentionally tried to get a religious forum so that you can rub yourself all over your boyfriends in peace and quiet, as for religious beliefs...I do not remember denigrating any religion.
Of course if you feel the need to be persecuted...you have my permission.

Les, can you please tell me how MAROONS is used in context...I am not familiar with the term.

Yeah I know [bleep]...you intentionaly deinigrated all of them. Because you were bored. [bleep] off.

Oh, and where did I denigrate a religion...show me.

ya gotta watch more Bug Bunny, tis an early reference. I'm done here. Les

IIUC, maroon in this context is a humorous euphemism for moron.

That would just mean the Campfire could make no law establishing an official Campfire Church......................

Thank you Ken, we have quite a few of same...just slightly more colourful.

Actually, a campfire church isn't all that far fetched, after all there is a scientology "church", OOPS....I may be denigrating a religion.

So, you are a lunatic....how is that denigrating a religion.
After all you are arguing on a thread that was started to get you your own forum, and you are attacking anyone who would dare such....yes, LUNATIC would seem to suffice.

Maroons?
