Suit yourself. No one was bothered by your interest in Kid Rock. But that wasn't what ignited the fury of the pagan babies and had them howling for your hide.
BTW, being somewhat literate I recognize the source of that quote about shaking the dust off of one's feet. Let me suggest another quote for you to consider, since you kindly provided that most excellent one for our benefit:
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not charity, I am only a ringing gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but I have not charity, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but I have not charity, I gain nothing.
Paul's first letter to Corinth, 13th chapter. Highly recommended for those who, believing in their own right knowledge, think that Being Right is everything and that politeness and good manners are nothing. Read the chapter and Paul will answer your question "but please fill me in; why have I offended so many here on this thread...". |
