If you've been in that echo chamber then you already know. No one changes anyone's mind, ever. It devolves into personal attack after personal attack. Hell, someone told me to F off in here because they can't keep it in check. No thanks. And yes, I let Gren have it over his homophobic slurs. I can't stand bigots and there seems to be a few on this site.
I like Rex a lot In 2019. The world can be a wild place

This thread has delivered :popcorn:
Sometimes I wish I didn't have trex on ignore so I could both sides of threads like this. But then again, sometimes I wonder what it would feel like to slip off the pool ladder and smash my front teeth into the concrete.

It is interesting to me that in today's world of political correctness and moral relativism, the people who are tolerated the least and are often called racists, bigots, homophobes, etc. are those who believe there is absolute right and wrong, that there is such a thing as sin and that sin has been defined and never changes. To me, having those beliefs does not make one a hater or any of the terms used to attack them. It doesn't make them better than those who think differently, either. It just sets them apart from those who so vehemently disagree with their belief systems that they want to demean, belittle and even joke about their life philosophy in hopes they will shut up. And some do want to discriminate against and silence them. Open, honest discussion with an exchange of ideas in the form of back and forth, respectful debate just doesn't happen anymore. The crux of the issue comes down to authority - What is a person's authority for what they believe? Is it me, is a person's authority just what each thinks and desires? Is it the government, a political leader, friends, parents, a church, books we've read, a professor or university? And remember, humanism is a religion, too, and our public schools have been indoctrinating our kids with that belief system for quite a long time. A disagreement about these type of issues can only be reasonably decided when the parties agree on the ultimate authority that will be used to determine the correct answer. And that is the real problem. People no longer recognize a Supreme authority and so each of us becomes our own authority and then we seek out others who agree with us to reinforce our system of beliefs. Those who disagree or take opposing views become "the other" and must be minimized or destroyed. Kind of sad, really.

There's a little game I like to play on medium to longer threads.
I read the first page - then click to the last page to see just how far off-course the thread got.
The divergence factor on this one is probably an 8 out of 10.

The takeaway here, of course, is ... the favorite women's soccer player is not a lesbian.

A young woman whose dream was to play in the world cup got cut out of that because she would not wear a uniform that would serve as her personal testimony "broadcasting" that she supported the homosexual agenda. Honoring her lifelong Christian beliefs, she refused to make her beliefs subservient to others gay agenda.

This girl did not push her Christian lifestyle on any other person. She was the most skilled left-backer available. Hinkle got cut out of her soccer dream because the gay women rejected her. (reminds me of NFL locker room disruption ascribed to Tebow's unrelenting faith.) I don't know the solution ... gotta maintain the smoothest team spirit. Still, it shows you can "punish" Christians who refuse to promote practitioners of gay lifestyle. It's sad. Just note that there are no cities dedicating themselves as venues celebrating Christianity??

From what I read she chose not to play because the #s on that jersey were rainbow colored to recognize gay pride. Then spoke out against gay marriage while playing with ladies married to ladies. She was called up to play by coach Ellis and later cut. Goes on the 700 Club to say or insinuate she was cut because of her stand on gay marriage or how she felt about it.

Well, considering the USA gave up a total of 3 goals the entire tournament I guess they had someone in her place that was more than able to defend. Seems to me if you play on a team and let it be clearly known you are against the life some of your team mates live (legally live) then you are choosing to judge team mates in a negative manner (at least to them for damned sure).
She made choices. You dont always pick greatly skilled players to be on the field. There has to be chemistry. Team work. Having each others back. Lots of things go into being a team. If one player chooses to make issues about what team mates do in the private lives then that will surely have an effect on the team.

If you choose to use your faith at work or play or whatever you do to make a judgement about others in that environment there will be consequences.

This is a good solid fair post. They are only asking for acceptance. I find it funny that people cant even make their own choices. They have to have a book dictate to them their lives. But they only choose certain things...weird. Line item veto the good book. Hilarious. Religious bigotry.

And then to act like your Christians being persecuted during the Roman Empire is beyond funny. I hope you guys make it. Lol.

Right off of her Wiki page...

Hinkle has been outspoken regarding LGBT issues. On June 26, 2015, after same-sex marriage in the United States was established in all 50 states, Hinkle tweeted "This world is falling farther and farther away from God... All that can be done by believers is to continue to pray."

Not sure how you can build team trust with that but you try to explain it to me.

:facepalm:

An Australian friend of mine once said "you guys have Mt Rushmore as your national treasure...we have OzzyMan/Bogan videos on YouTube. He's our national treasure."

Now, as a proud American, I'm not one to concede inferiority on too many things. But the Aussies may have us beat there.

Sounds like discrimination to me.

They are only asking for acceptance.
If this were true for the whole LGBTQ community, we wouldn't even be having this discussion. The point is that many members of the community want more than acceptance; they want endorsement and celebration as well. Look at the whole wedding cake controversy. The folks who sued that baker could have gotten a cake for their wedding at any number of bakeries; they wanted to force that baker to not only bake their cake, but bake it their way. That goes far beyond just seeking acceptance. Hinkle's issue, if i read the articles correctly, was wearing a jersey that was partially displaying a rainbow flag. To display a rainbow flag goes beyond acceptance and into endorsement and celebration. It also turned the uniform into a political statement. I don't believe that was fair to Hinkle anymore than if they had put crosses on the uniform and forced Jewish, Muslim, or Atheist members to wear them.
