Whoa. Had to go back more than 130 posts to find anything positive that someone had to say about you huh? Around here we call that scraping the bottom of the barrel. Hehehe. šŸ˜› ---

Weā€™ve already beaten, strangled and raped that horse to death in this thread. Holly is a firm believer in turning the other cheek except for when she thinks God wouldnā€™t want her to do that, like if she was being sexually assaulted. So basically like any other Christian moral: Do as I say, not as a I do. ---

^^^ The Lord gave his life in order to save us from a horrible fate, so why should a person stand there and let another person try to bring a horrible fate back on them??? Why let someone get away with trying to make what the Lord did for us go all to waste??? > [@Cinnamon\_Imp](#): > > Late to the party, but you claim to be a Christian donā€™t you? Didnā€™t your messiah say something about turning the other cheek? If anyone here doesnā€™t know how to turn the other cheek, its everyone else here who did not like what it is that I choose to stand for which is what started this whole thing in the first place. They could have left my beliefs alone, but did they? No. God bless you two and them always!!! Holly ---

I actually AGREE with you. I donā€™t think anyone should let anyone else ever sexually assault them, if they can help it. But Jesusā€™ teachings were pretty clear on this matter: if someone is doing harm to you, the proper response is to let them continue and NOT to respond in kind with more harm. ---

So Holly, if suicide is a sin, can we pray that the Lord forgives those who commit it? Or is that a useless prayer? ---

Can a mod please kill this thread? Iā€™m not suggesting banning JOSH, but the thread has become as monotonous as a stuck-record. Same shit, different page.

Was the very slight reference to killing a mocking bird intentional (because this thread is just repeating itself over and over and over like a mocking bird), or were you just commenting on the suicide being a sin thing? ---
