Neither of those posts seem to speak to how he was raised, only to how he currently believes.DIXIE: “I don't recall ever discussing how I was raised, so you are making an assumption based on what, exactly?”
Fullpolitics.com:
-Dixie: “Tiana, I am flattered that you are so concerned with my salvation. I can assure you, I am a Christian believer in the Word of God.”
-Dixie: “I was accused earlier in this thread of "not acting like a Christian" and when I challenged it, I got nothing for an example. Many of my views are rooted in my faith and religion, but I don't come here daily posting scripture and asking everyone if they have been saved, yet this is how Christians are often characterized and that is a 'demonization' in itself.”

Proverbs 13-24, Old Testament...
Id say its trumped by the New Testament and the Turn the other Cheek rule!
Dixie you going with the word of Jesus or the old Testament? Are you Jewish or Christian?
" I have not read the Baker report, so I doubt that I have posted anything to contradict it yet. Any commentary I made about the conditions in Iraq, were made before the Baker report was public, so I can't be "wrong" about something that didn't previously exist"
The conditions it describes have existed for quite awhile, Dixie. The Baker report only confirms observations that MOST discerning Americans have made, by the news reports that you have called so biased & one-sided. You are not "wrong" about the Baker report. You are "wrong" about the situation in Iraq, and have been since March of 2003.
Even your tapdancing is getting pretty bad....
As dixie desperatly tries to spin this off on religion...
So Dixie, you belive that a woman who has a child should be required to take a lamb to church as an offering....
Leviticus, chapter 12
1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.
3: And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
4: And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled.
5: But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days.
6: And when the days of her purifying are fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first year for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest:
7: Who shall offer it before the LORD, and make an atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This is the law for her that hath born a male or a female.
8: And if she be not able to bring a lamb, then she shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons; the one for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the priest shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be clean.
Jarhead! WOW! I am impressed! You are becoming a regular Billy Graham! Keep it up and you might give Brent a run for his money here! I bet that is the most Scripture you've read in the past year! Isn't it amazing how much my influence has accomplished? I'm so proud of you! Bravo!
As for the sacrifice of animals, this was rendered unnecessary by the Crucifixion of Christ. We no longer have to sacrifice animals to God, as Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice for us. Besides, I think PETA has a thing about sacrificing animals these days.
You don't have a problem admitting when you are wrong??????
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I have NEVER seen you admit when you are wrong. NEVER.
