Excuse my ignorance, but I fail to understand the issue "Kitty" has with the last paragraph.

All I see him saying is... [my interpretation:] Just because something is hard, doesn't mean it doesn't make sense, and just because something doesn't make sense, doesn't mean it isn't Truth - and this statement is true, irregardless of the source (whether it be the Bible, or man's ideas)

Also, I would have to agree, with righteousness before peace. As part of the definition of righteous, is justice, I for one would like to see justice long before peace...I would even submit that true peace, or peace that is lasting, is near impossible without first achieving righteousness/justice.

Hello Kitty,

The questions did not get too hard for me. I called a spade a spade and saw that you did not care for what I was actually saying. Sure you can disagree, but you folks (whoever you are) are closed to the idea that Christianity is hard, and it costs your life. As Ryle said, what is won dearly is priced highly and clung to firmly.

It was quite a while ago I said that, and what that means is that we as people interpret all facts. Facts ARE facts, and what they mean to us changes the way we interpret them.

"Facts are facts," eh? REally now? Jus...

"Facts are facts," eh? REally now? Just two days ago you said facts were not objective, they were interpreted. At least be consistent, if you're going to try to use facts.

And if you're so willing to fight, why did you flounce from Free Jinger when the questions got too hard? Real Christian virtue right there. Not.

Also, to anyone who isn't a Christian of a very specific type, the part about righteousness being more important than peace is a little scary. You said yourself- "Some things seem too strange or cruel to make sense. Not in the Bible, nor in the real world, but that never has stopped them from their being true." In that case, they are part of an ideology that you admit is not based in Scripture, which makes your call to militancy that much scarier.
