Bible discussions

What don't I understand about liberalism?

You either believe the bible is the inspired word of God or you do not. You either believe that God effected his message to the world properly or you do not.

No one suggested you were attacking religion. Please come down off your cross. =)

It's far too large, IMO. Whatever. Just sayin'.

@D in regards to the comment on liberalism.

And besides, I've lost most respect for the debate between political types. We both know that people who label themselves as liberals and conservatives are doing so with a huge probability that they've been conditioned by society and the media to identify themselves as such, and a small probability that they've done any research into the political identities they assume.

You fail to recognize that's what your point of view is. Your POV is personal to you, and restricted by your limited means of communicating it. Furthermore none of us can trust that you completely understand it. That's how it is for everybody's beliefs, including mine.

Thanks, Conley.

Thank you!

I often don't find those labels, at least how they are used in the American context, particularly useful. I agree with you there.

If that wasn't my POV I wouldn't have said it. Isn't that implicit? Again, you either believe or you do not. It's up to you to decide. All I can say is try it out and see how it works for you.

Thanks, Conley.

$#@! Conley.
