Aren't pictures and words closely related? I can weave a picture in someone's mind with words and I can show them a picture that tells them a story you might otherwise hear in words

Maybe. Either way, you are making too big an issue over nothing. There is a big difference in criticizing someone's convictions and criticizing someone's attitude about their convictions. Everybody has convictions of one form or another. If we tried to accomodate them all, AFF wouldn't exist.

Rico, how about criticizing the Lord? I suppose that is ok?

You sent me a PM referring to respect for one another, yet when someone disrespects the Savior, you say, "Get over it."

Like I said before, not only do I believe the graphic is disrespectful, the attitude and in your face manner with which it is presented is not just disrespectful, it is insulting.

Especially when it comes from a mental midget like 1Cor. Once he is convinced we are standing on a solid rock, he would have me use my workers, my resources, and my effort to crush that rock into sand so EVERYONE can wiggle their toes in it for the sake of some social equality.

Political and social liberals are the bain of our society, and it is even worse to be wrong when you are shouting in someone's face.

See, that is my point. Im not trying to criticize anyone. But the topic itself I wanted to address. It does not matter if it really is Jesus or not. If the intent is mockery, disrespect or irreverence the it is wrong

Take it up with admin. He obviously hasn't broken any rules or they would have made him change it or banned him for refusing to change it. Also, for someone who so easily and carelessly thinks he can dish out insults to others, because it's part of his DNA and he just can't help himself, you sure have a hard time taking it when you feel insulted. Get over it, Carp. It's not that big a deal.

Hey, insult me, call me names, question my integrity all day long and I will respond with reason, common sense, intelligence, and knowledge. Lets see if the insult or challenge is based on emotion or if on fact.

Conversely, I don't go crying to admin everytime I feel that something or someone needs to be challenged regarding something they said or did.

If it has integrity attached to it, it will stand strong and be preserved, if not, then let it be picked apart like a dead corpse.

Nothing should be off limits to intellectual honesty.

I see that our good ICor obviously missed some of the lessons on his way to earning his Doctorate from UGST. (But then again, he ran from that subject when questioned about whether he actually had the doctorate he claimed to have. I sincerely hope he does not. That would be a frightening thought, IMO.)

You're kidding me right? He claimed to have a PhD. from UGST?

Now I really can't wait to rattle sabers with him...

for what its worth...
UGST does not offer a Doctorial Program in Philosophy (Ph.D).
Their website only acknowledges Masters Program in Divinity, M.Div.,(whatever that really means)

Catch my meaning?

I wonder just how mature some of you people are on here sometimes.

I say, that chick is more mixed up than a bunch of feathers in a twister!
