remember the child hood retort.. "it takes one to know one"?

I have found that many sayings have roots in the Bible.. some not so good, but some have a truth that defies man's logic...

I try to just put forward a passage so the person can read and hopefully understand my beliefs on an issue instead of quoting the bible, partly because taking a passage out of context can lead some to manipulate the word to fit their agenda, partly because there are different interpretations to the word, and partly to draw a person back to the bible.. but below is a passage that might help a few to a better understanding of the old childhood retort..


“Therefore you are without excuse, every man of you who passes judgment, for in that you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. And we know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who practice such things.” (Romans 2:1-2).

but if you think you know more then the written word..

since religion often overtakes politics these days..

and a few seem to want to judge others..

It's really gotten nasty here lately.. And what makes this world so special is that not all people think the same or believe the same.. Heck jigs and I disagree on the greatness of the Huskers, but we don't get nasty to each other... I find it quite interesting to see what makes people click...And even Soap and I disagree time to time... And that's okay I still like him! So open clean dialog is okay but the rest is pure unnessesary...

from what i have seen, over-grown children do 90% of the posting in PB. so i guess the behavior that takes place here is to be expected.

to be honest, i find it kinda entertaining. then when i get tired of the crying and whinning, i go see what my 2 year old is up to. :)

I was never to big on the idea of polls. We are all adults here, free to come and go as we see fit. Let me tell you a little bit, OT used to call anyone who was(still does in fact) conservative a "rightwingernut" so I came back with the thing to call the left "leftwingernuts". You'd have thought the world was coming to an end. I settled back and started using leftwing. I was called for being nasty on that just the other day. You can never please some people.
I challenge you to post a true issue on polotics and the pros and cons on an issue and there won't be much response.....just silence. But then call someone leftwing and all he77 breaks loose and the thread goes on for pages. Look at the Laura thread, it was started for strictly an argument, when I declared it a non issue....that wouldn't do....so it escalated into an all out brawl.

I would welcome an isp address for all these posts.

it must be easier to insult, then to actually post on the subject around here...as it is so common these days.. but many on here refrain from constant insults, and rude comments.. and try to stay above the muck..

... if you stick to the topic their silence will say more then if they defended their views..

Let me tell you a little bit,

not to be rude.. but we all have already heard it.... dozens of times.. in every rude crude imaginable way.. like a scratched record... to the point it is beyond over-kill..

I know it is getting old....if we dare challenge the liberals we get called nasty and even accused of stalking. You surely have learned that is their Alinsky type of debate. We have set silent too much in the past and let them promote their agenda. Silence to their tactics only emboldens them.
True we need to stick to the subject but we do not need to set idly by and let them have free rein over debating using their Alinsky type rules.

We must not sit idly by trying to be the good guy and not wanting anyone to get mad at us and then let them dictate the rules of debate and more importantly the importance of issues.

I think I was accused of being rude once or twice... but as much as I have debated, I have not been accused of stalking. or being nasty.. yet..

and if I do I will look at how I respond and maybe change myself to set a better standard..

No Steve ,I'm not hiding behind a poll ,I came out and told the truth. You all now know my answer!!
While I'm telling a truth ,I never posted on political before my first angusgord post ,I DO post in the other room's ,mostly ranchtalk ,by another name .Will I tell you that name ,no,maybe would have if I wasn't worried about Pigfarmer and hopalarry following me and discrediting my cattle business ,I seem to be liked ok when people of rancher's don't know my political views.

I am not worried about your name.. nor am I here to judge, but to attack others for multiple ids.. seems to support the original intent of the thread. :lol: :?

ironic how life is isn't it?

Not saying your wrong but the first step is admitting your doing something wrong ,which I just did. How many more do you think are going to admit they're doing this???Or the mudslinging???Running around making fun of every thread that's posted seems to be quite juvenile to me. IF there was normal out and out debating going on in this room ,I'd post as myself!!

it used to be normal out and out debating.. spirited.. but a person could learn alot here.. hopefully it can return..

I hope those absent from this debate are taking the time to figure out how to respond... and not just ducking the issue..

I'm all for hashing it out!!! May get heated! Just a thought here buddy ,what kind of debating will happen if there's only one side left??

then someone will start calling me a liberal.. and the fight will start again...

NOW mouth step up and prove your wild a$$ed claims of get off your high horse of OH WOE IS ME,
NOt many people here like me and that is not important but they sure know that I am not a foul mouthed jerk that accuses with out proof so prove it or stfu aboput how bad you are being treated!!!!!!!

I know I would spend more time in PB if we could just discuss topics rather than trade insults and come up with labels for people. There seems to be a handful of folks here that would rather make personal attacks than engage in meaningful discourse.
