Im sorry, I didnt mean to make this an actual *gasp* conversation. Inherently, I figured some points may come up for everyone that they want to discuss more, not just me.I thought we were just throwing out generalizations of what we like and don't like. That the word Lord and Christianity has hit a few buttons is comical. No one seems to be commenting on my love of Sea Rays.... Nor my hatred of animals... PETA?? anyone?? :huh:
I'm not going to push my religion on anyone here, but I also don't need to hear that my religion is merely a moral compass that has been 'explained by science' to the point of becoming irrelevant. Funny that the minute someone mentions their faithfulness, someone else feels that it is their duty to tear it apart.
Bottom line, my likes and dislikes haven't changed, nor will they be by anyone else's comments posted on an internet boating forum.
What is it with "pushing a few buttons"...geez, dont you guys ever talk about such subjects with your friends? Maybe I have odd friends, but besides the usual minutia, we do get into some deep conversations over a vast variety of subjects. Then we agree to either disagree, agree, or understand each other a bit more. In the end, we still go play ice hockey or have a beer.
I wasnt trying to tear anyone's religion up or do anything else but give my opinion. I have subjected myself as well to scrutiny by stating my beliefs. Had I wanted to be malicious or down trod, I would not have stated my belief for the sake of conversation.
Man, tough crowd. I thought I would actually get some intellectually stimulating conversation going here on subjects that have not come up on CSR. When we discuss these things on other boards it is a give and take, not an argument.
That was my hope for here.
