However, I can walk and chew gum at the same time. One can forgive the sinner and hate the sin.

Also, Christ taught, “If you forgive others their transgressions, your heavenly Father will forgive you”

I'm pretty sure based on her comments and withdrawn apology, she's not the model of "forgiving". I also suspect she doesn't care.

I see you typed alot about a point I'm not making, failed to address my comment, and then told me I have no clue.

Typical...

Why is it that Reich-wing "Christians" are so angry all the time? It's almost as if they haven't a clue what Christ actually taught...

Oh yeh? From the IRS Special Agent recruitment website. Qualifications include:
  • Be legally allowed to carry a firearm.
  • Maintain a level of fitness necessary to effectively respond to life-threatening situations on the job.
  • Be willing and able to participate in arrests, execution of search warrants, and other dangerous assignments.
This has been true for over 100 years. This whole brouhaha is due to Republicans and their compliant media trying to portray the new legislation as creating a new cadre of jack-booted thugs to harass innocent middle class wingnuts when it actually does not change existing policies and procedures (i.e., it's "fake news").

Trollin' trollin' trollin'
You can't stop me trollin'
Nothin' ever gets through trollhide!
Come on, dispute me,
Utterly refute me,
I'll swing that ol' tarbrush high and wide.
All your calculation
Facts and information
Don't make no impression--trollhide!

Never admit error,
Stand my ground forever
It's my super-power, trollhide!
Take lies as gospel
'Cause it makes 'em hostile,
If they're uncovered let them slide,
Misinformation
Mixed with obfuscation,
Endless disputation, trollhide!

Egg 'em on, whip 'em up,
Mess 'em up, fake 'em out,
Egg 'em on, fake 'em out, trollhide!
Set 'em up, reel 'em in,
Ride 'em hard, get 'em hot,
Let 'em bitch, trollhide!



Gotta complete the effect Trollhide!

It's hard work imposing your own "Christian values" on everyone else I guess.

Mis-information is my gospel,
Love to make 'em hostile, trollhide!

Egg 'em on, whip 'em up,
Mess 'em up, fake 'em out,
Egg 'em on, fake 'em out, trollhide!
Set 'em up, reel 'em in,
Ride 'em hard, get 'em hot,

Trollhide!
Cool! So let's expand that second verse to fit the song structure:

Never admit error,
Stand my ground forever
It's my super-power, trollhide!
Take lies as gospel
'Cause it makes 'em hostile,
If they're uncovered let them slide,
Misinformation
Mixed with obfuscation,
Endless disputation, trollhide!

So, what's the fake news here? That the IRS originally listed in the qualifications for the job that qualified applicants must be willing to use deadly force? Or that the IRS removed it from the list of qualifications?

Kinda "judgey" of you to say that, Chicks. Calling folks names who disagree with you, and then assuming that you know what's in someone's heart when you've never even met them or looked them in the eye.

So, before you position yourself knowledgeable, or a proponent of, Christ's teachings, please bear in mind, from Matthew 7:

Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
