msn4med1975....
Maybe we both have different interpretations as to what is or isn't a personal attack and that is cool. But to address the rest of your post, I do agree with you that we should not let one thing slide (like its ok) and condemn another - with this whole topic being a good example. As a bible-believing Christian, I have to respond to this topic (how to have a relationship with the Father) with the same truth, conviction, and basis as I would if this convo was about murder, adultery, or gay marriage.

We too apparently have a difference in interpretation. Explaining to someone what your religious convictions are is something TOTALLY different from responding with silly remarks. That is what I was speaking of in my original post. I respect the fact that you believe whatever it is you believe. However that does not mean that it somehow conforms with my beliefs and that I should sugar coat what it says about it (especially when asked).
For example, if you told me "my religions says people with the name Honeykiss1974 are rabbits" and if that is EXACTLY what it says, then that's not a personal attack. You are simply stating what it says. However, if I respond by calling you a kook, that is a one and in my opinion, its gone from discussion to schoolyard games.
As I have said earlier, I will answer any questions that you or anyone may have, but I will not respond to posts with snide remarks and backhanded comments.
Not in this thread nor in any other in GC.
What Fred is saying has been said on here by various people in many thread before. Is the issue with the reason/belief (because it is what it is) or the messenger, knowing his stance on GLOs?
Now the REAL question...what the heck are we doing up so late?
