Wow... Chris. You don't want to discuss, don't discuss. Same goes for Oneel... you guys don't care? So don't care.


I also thought it was an enjoyable and fascinating conversation.

I love you, Chris, but I have to say that I'm amused by the irony here.

As Taktek said, there were a few sketchy moments, but the way I see it, a half dozen or more people (even those with strongly opposing views) successfully expressed their views on and debated a rather "hot button" issue and remained respectful of one another. How often does that occur around here?

Then, as the last post on page 8, you (who haven't participated in the discussion) step in with the name calling and accusations of immaturity.

You're welcome to disagree with those that participated in the discussion (this thread has been all about differing views), but please do so with the attitude of respect and civility that was present in the majority of this thread.

Dude... seriously. That was uncalled for. I'm sorry. Rod my be acting like a jerk about this issue, but seriously, this was an uncalled for post and doesn't do anything to help resolve it. Period.

Please stop mocking the people here and start helping the situation.

reminded me of ctsone actually

Sorry I mis-interpretted. I guess I came to the conclusion I did because folks have made posts like that before and not meant them as humorous. Your only other post in the thread was "This thread is stressing me out." (which sounded serious), and a couple of other people had popped in and out, seeming rather serious. So, I took your second post as serious as well.

And the thing is that noone needed to win the thread. It wasn't my intent to win converts to my side. I just answered Joel's question about Shiloh (with an answer he wasn't expecting, it would seem), then tried to present and clarify the reasons behind the answer that I gave.

I think it's been a good discussion. As I believe I said much earlier in the thread, I like discussing things because it helps me solidify what I believe and why and also helps me learn better to relate in a Christlike manner to other Christians of differing beliefs and understand more about why they believe what they do.

To me, that was the benefit and point of the thread. Not to have a winner.

Well so much for sarcastic humour.... 

On Topic:

I don't really care to be honest. I like to buy good music and if some producer or DJ wants to be part of the gay pride, that's not a problem to me. For me, it doesn't make their music less or more interesting.

I vote for a TF float during the next gay pride!! 

Great comparison! 

Spinning at the Gay Pride parade really is like spinning at any secular club or event.

It's a tough choice to decide whether you'll only be promoting/encouraging sin, or if you really can impact people for Jesus.

I think, as someone pointed out, it's not for everyone.

To some people the temptation is too strong.

For others, they can shine their light in the darkest of places.
