Dwight, it is true that I asked for someone to explain exactly what it was in the Bible which was being used to justify prejudice against homosexuals. You explained what you thought, and I appreciated it. However, you went way beyond that when you insisted your beliefs were the Right Ones, and particularly when you started insinuating I was evil because I interpreted things differently than you do.

Your statement that I am using the Bible to further my own agenda is particularly ludicrous. I think the Bible is a corrupted document, and while I believe generally in Jesus as a prophet, and in the messages of love and tolerance coming down to us from that time, I would never use the Bible to further my own agenda.

Dwight, I don't think I could possibly be more confused and the people on SI who speak with two mouths and are totally and completely hypocritical to the furthest possible exponential of the concept of hypocrisy, as in Christine, the usually quite openly blasphemous and very self-proclaimed and proud of it "pagan", who opens wide conversations to bring in strangers to talk about Jesus being queer, and who openly posts nearly advanced witchcraft posts to all who vaguely hint that they are "looking" for the meaning to life--this is only one instance of the meaning of the word hypocrisy. I have nothing personally about Christine, yet now she's here professing her latent Christianity and "moral, Christian private life". All of these things leaving me in a soup of human thought which has literally nausiated me spiritually seeing all of these lies posted without regard to the fact that people reading them ACTUALLY HAVE BRAINS AND MEMORIES FROM THESE PEOPLE'S OTHER PAGAN, DEVIOUS AND DOWNRIGHT DIRTY-MINDED THOUGHT PROCESSES...

I must take a breathe. There.

But now YOU post here like a brother, yet on my short and rathered sickening journey into the devious thought patterns so openly bragged out on Feelings, it seemed to me that the person posting as Dwight with your exact name was openly pagan and rather blaphemous also.

In truth, Dwight, this is a twilight zone experience. What is going on? How can humans be so one way one place, and suddenly have soul transplants just a thought away.

Anyway, I just don't get this. Why have you been so double-minded?
Or has it been my misunderstanding. My mind is blown. I can only cope with so much which is not as it appears to be.

All I remember is private mailing you, I thought, and then reading the open posts by others and thinking I must be losing it because this guy is just like everyone else here.

Maybe the point I'm making is this: When we are all things to all men we appear to wallow in their mire and seem to be covered with the same stuff as is on the bottom of the pig pen.

Please, help me out here. How could I have so badly misread your thoughts on Feelings if you are indeed a believer?

Dazed and Confused somewhere in a rather undazed part of the country.
It seems that in all posts on Feelings you and Christine have just been mind buddy-buddies slashing away at everything moral and Christian. If I am wrong you must please, please forgive me. If I'm not, could you possibly explain? I'm up in the middle of the night turning off the heater as it is too darn hot, and turned on this thing to bore me back to sleep and see you here speaking as a follower of Jesus Christ. Yet I have assumed you were actually quite pagan over there looking closer. It's just a matter of great curiousity to me now. Over there is about as devious adult conversations as I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. And I have had a rather worldly life for the most part, and have hung around very worldly people. But Feelings is the worst human thought I've been exposed to in all areas for more than one sentence by one person which I rapidly get away from in real life. So, go figure. All in all it has been like I said the Twilight Zone for me for the past 2 months, and I'm giving it all up for Lent.

Again, if I'm wrong about you, before God and man I beg your forgiveness. But I was so confused about your double-speaking on Feelings that here it seems even more difficult to comprehend.
