  1. Bob Jones University ends ban on interracial dating

    I wonder why a christian university would have had a ban in the first place. Would Christ support such a ban?

  2. There is a line between treating all religions as equally valid or worthy of respect, which Christians of course cannot do, and accepting the believers of those religions as worthy of respect and tolerance, which is the point of the Good Samaritan parable. The essence of being a Believer is that you do not believe in other doctrines. You cannot logically say you are a Christian, bu tthat you think Islam is equally valid. If you are a Christian, then you by definition believe that muslims are condemned. That's why it is important to convert them.

  4. You're as confused as he is. You can very well respect someone's religion without agreeing to his belief. "Equally valid" and "worthy of respect" are two totally different things. You get yourself into a bind by thinking that they're the same thing.

    Furthermore, he claims that Catholics (or whatever sects that he disagrees with) are not Christians and are not worthy of his respect. I think that's absurd.

  5. In the dark days of the past, it was Christians trying convert or kill...

    Now the Muslims are at the same evolutionary level the Christians of those days were...

    Typical that Ann Coulter would want to return to middle ages mentality...

    " We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity."

    Why don’t you quit quoting Bible verses out of context so you won’t look so foolish?

    I Corinthians 10:31-32 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:


    You cannot accept a false faith and continue to give glory to God. You cannot direct someone to Christianity without first telling them that what they already believe is wrong. If you find this offensive, then so be it.

  8. Hapless, the defender of Ann Coulter, and George Bush apologist...talk about slurs!!!

    LOL...

    It is so classic, the full on self identification with the right wing idols by the right wing zealous idol worshipers, that they begin to personally attack the person who is making fun of their idols.

    LMAO...

    Hapless, president of Ann Coulter fan club, and vide president of George Bush fan club...

  9. It was you who quoted Bible out of context and looking foolish.

    You have some serious problems with logic. Being respectful to other faiths does not require you to accept a false faith. You can tell someone that what they believe is wrong and at the same time be respectful. Insulting others' faiths will not win you any converts, only enemies.

    How so? If I say your faith is wrong, that it is false, do you not think I am being disrespectful of your faith?
