There are many who claim the name of "Christian" who reject God's Word in favor of their sin. There are many homosexuals who claim to be Christian. Many serial adulterers, fornicators, thieves, etc. who reject what God has said so that their sins may be held onto. Atheism isn't the only form of rejection of God.

Of the two, Herschel Walker is for killing children. No word on whether he likes to frick them first.

And I would disagree as the state has an interest in protecting innocent life. The innocent baby doesn't deserve to have its skull caved in and brains vacuumed down a sink just because one or both of his or her parents is a piece of shite.

quote:Am I arrogant for believing that gravity keeps my feet on the ground? According to you, belief in something makes one arrogant. Or, is it a just a belief that you don't hold, yourself?
Correct. And you're arrogant enough to believe the Christian myth. You think so highly of yourself that you think a deity willingly became human to make you feel better about the bad shite you've done.
I don't live in fear or guilt. There's no reason for me to do so, because I have a savior who has removed my guilt.
quote:It's not entirely. Period.
No. It's true. Period.
Creation testifies to God's existence and power. It's a knowledge that must be suppressed by sin, and it is. Everyone is religious. Some call it "spiritual". Others redirect their religiosity towards humanistic pursuits. Everyone worships, it's just a matter of what we worship.
quote:Fear is natural. Guilt is natural. Humanity is naturally "moral", or has a sense of morality due to being image-bearers of God. We know that we do "bad" things, and everyone is looking for redemption. Christianity provides the truth about where morality comes from, where our guilt comes from, and how we can have our guilt truly removed through the blood of Jesus Christ.
Christianity isn't sustainable without promoting fear and shame.
quote:It's compelling to those who belong to God.
It isn't compelling to "anyone who isn't buying what you're selling." Fear and shame don't work on everyone.
quote:There is. Everyone recognizes it and lives accordingly, even if they don't put 2 and 2 together to state such a thing.
There is no such thing as objective morality.

Because it appeals to a section of their overall base and by supporting it, they continue to cultivate the votes of that segment.

I'm aware that you think the government should enforce your brand of morality. I've made that point already.

Which part of God's Word is he rejecting?
Abortion is incompatible with the Bible.

Why is abortion so important to the Left? by L.A.
I think the answer to any question like this has to do with core principles.
Thomas Sowell talks about these differences and he uses a handful of terms. But the common theme is one core philosophy is more utopian while the other accepts the natural order view
So the utopian view is that some form of population control is a means of obtaining a more desirable utopia. They know the demographics of who aborts their own babies, and this population is the undesirables. So the challenge is how do you build a base of reliable voters who tend toward their own group self destruction as a result of selfish decision making?
The act itself is inherently selfish, so you frame it as a woman’s rights issue.
The issue is consistent with a leftist leaning, but it succeeds as an issue because the motivation taps into human selfishness. The word choice is simply a linguistic tool to falsely suggest that terminating life is actually a form of freedom.
After reading this explanation, our board’s leftists might be tempted to try to debunk it by claiming capitalism, more favored by the right, is also selfish. But they are wrong. Capitalism favors what is best for the group, because it rewards those who please the masses.

Oh bullshite. This is something religious people say to rationalize why others don't believe as they believe.
quote:

Sure, but not in the bogeyman who will send me to hell if I don't adhere to your man-made moraility. That's decidedly irrational.

Sure, but not to "anyone who isn't buying what you're selling."

No, there isn't. What you're trying to uphold as objective morality is nothing but subjective morality from a different source.

God's character
Speak to all the congregation of the people of Israel and say to them, You shall be holy, for I the Lord your God am holy. -Lev. 19:2
But as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct -1 Pet. 1:15
God's hatred of sin
You are of purer eyes than to behold evil, And cannot look on wickedness. -Hab. 1:13
But your iniquities have separated you from your God; And your sins have hidden His face from you, So that He will not hear. -Isa. 59:2
God's commands against murder
You shall not murder -Exod. 23:13 / Deut. 5:17
For He who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery, but you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law -Jam. 2:11
Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him -1 John 3:15
and God's teaching that mankind is made in His image, just to name a few.
So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. -Gen. 1:27
Whoever sheds man’s blood, By man his blood shall be shed; For in the image of God He made man. -Gen. 9:6
In addition
The Bible teaches that God values life from the womb and that a child is alive even before birth (Jer. 1:5; Judges 13; Luke 1:39-45).
Abortion is the purposeful killing of a life that God has placed in the womb of the mother. It is murder, and against God's law.

So that nobody has to take responsibility for wh0ring around. Lack of responsibility is their hallmark.

Lots of them just hate anything orderly.
They want to do as they please no consequences.
