Actually she was being sarcastic. And stupid.
I know. I tried to disarm jm by ignoring it.

You guys profess to being good people and wanting to do good around the world, but when it comes down to it, most of you are evil selfish ignorant peons who allow themselves to be indoctrinated by your nations ruling elite and their propaganda instead of educating yourself objectively.
"Love they enemy"
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"
"Love others as you love yourself"
I guess these kind of words are simply just words. Clearly that Jesus fella never considered trained CIA operatives and terrorists.
heh. I cannot validate discussing the Bible with someone that wishes to quote love that hates Christianity. I do not hate you, Satya. I even know how much you hate Christianity and I still do not hate you. Who is my enemy? I try to treat each and every situation the way I know and feel it should be treated for the benefit of the people. KJI is not my enemy. I may very well be his, but that is his choosing. We have a situation. It must be dealt with.
I understand the mente behind this and can see and understand implementation. I'm going to ask Alcyone to bake a fresh batch of cookies and see if we can visit North Korea tomorrow.

What kinds of cookies do you want?
As soon as my ear infection clears up I'm up to flying there with ya.
I'll pass out some brownies if the Christian-bashing will stop. I deserve better, as do other Christians here.
Folks, let me ease your conscious; there are those in place doing what they do best trying to defuse this situation
I knew brownies wouldn't work....
I would have thought by now that you would have gotten it into your head that subtalties, indirect meanings (which ultimately are passive agressive beaivors when it comes down to it), and guilded responses just make people mad, and cause people to lose respect for you.
just me has a typical persecution complex. You confront him directly with things like that and he will make it all about his religious beliefs and not his own behavior. Christianity simply exists for him as an excuse so he doesn't have to think for himself and be accountable for his own behavior. I have resigned myself to simply pointing out the contradictions of his beliefs and watching him founder by posting accusations of how we are Christian bashers and haters and also posting unintelligent passive aggressive comments like the one above. I don't need to change a person's mind if I can get them to make themselves look stupid.
Christians are people. They come to Christ at different times in life; some as young adolescents, some college age, and some even in their seventies. Some are studious and some are not. Some have a great love for learning and sharing, and some do not.
A mature Christain may not be any given specific age. Maturing in Christ takes time, as does it take time to learn a new subject in school. There are many different varing degrees of knowledge in Christ. Most all at most any given level of learning have admitted to being full of faults. They have chosen a path of forgiveness and repentance. They fully acknowledge this does not make them perfect in man's eyes on this earth....only forgiven.
How stupid Jesus must have looked on the cross dying to a lot of people.
When asked questions while He was being judged, like a lamb being led to the slaughter He opened not His mouth. How stupid of Him; He surely must have looked stupid to a lot of people. More can be said in silence, and silence does not speak to just anyone; there are those that hear the answer and there are those that cannot comprehend any answer. Closed minds are closed to any and all verbage, so why bother with what those closed minds call rhetoric and stupidity? Why add fuel to a fire?
Passive aggressive? Sounds like two words in a fight with themselves. I look at the definition of this, from the way it is being used against me, as a move in a game of chess. If you place my King in check, for example, it is my turn to move. I move what will best serve my own purpose in protecting my King and think about the endgame while doing so. Whoever is playing me in chess may question my move all they want; they may not know of my being tired. I may make a move that may have the other player think an awful lot before they move again.
Some may look at my move as a sign of weakness, thinking to themself how much respect for me they have lost. If our two Kings are facing each other with nothing in between them and they move their Queen in front of their King to place me in check; I may choose to also place my Queen in front of my King to merely cancel being in check. It may be my best move at the time, but inadvertantly I seem to have caused a situation: they cannot move their Queen currently from that file on the board. That would be a passive aggressive move to me on my part. If this were near the endgame it may very well happen, though most likely not early on.
I have but mirrored their assault with a defensive move that places them on the defensive. It does not mandate a defensive action from them, though many choose that as their course of action. I most likely will hear, "Now you don't really want to exchange Queens, do you?"
Truth is I do not argue much at home, at the office, or most any other place. I will lock the door and place a closed sign up before I choose blatant confrontational avenues. I have never in my life had to stand up for my Christianity except once in a bar many years ago.
Were my actions and words passive aggressive? I truly think quite possible.
We were in a dart match and it was almost Easter Sunday....Thursday night before Good Friday. Several folk on the other team were joking about Easter and it went on and on. One of them finally said, "Let's see if we can go find a Christian and crucify him." I turned the palms of my hands up and offered them to the table they were sitting at while I was standing next to the person that said that. I said, "Here: take me; I'm a Christian".
Some might call me a hypocrite for being in a bar, throwing darts, and drinking a couple of beers when I was younger. I'm here to tell you to judge away. Go for it. Have at it.
Remember I have been judged as being passive aggressive.
You cannot force your will on anyone you choose to. You cannot always have your way. Silence, as I said earlier, sometimes speaks much louder than words. Christians are not perfect; only forgiven and trying to live a better life. I liken the situation I am in unto an adult's shaking a child trying to get the child to speak. Problem with that is I have been shook too many times already and it does not bother me. I will attempt to keep from lashing out against those that choose to do so against me. Do any of those that question me actually not know where I stand? I thought so. Queen to King two.
