...I am neither Christian, nor homophobic*. The reason I came off as being such is that there were still a few things I wondered about in terms of the Bible, and you folks seem to reply more thouroughly when put on the defensive.

There are many here who are happy to go into as much detail as you might like about Biblical questions, so long as you are honest about your position. There is no need for such childish mind games.

I agree with Muad'Dib, but I go farther. It is quite inappropriate to engage in such childish mind games.

Someone else had criticized Cronus Malor for "mind games"; the next question is what kind of non-Christian he is -- is he willing to find fault with the Bible or the way Jesus Christ is depicted in the New Testament?

Why do I strongly suspect that this one is going to walk like a duck and quack like a duck?

So, other than those remaining few things, what do you think?

In a non-moderated forum, I'd probably be muttering something about 'pretentious little snot', but here I'll just note that I consider such an approach to be as childish as it is disengenuous.

Of course, maybe he's actually lying now, just to make an interesting thread.
