I would think that tackling poverty and disease around the globe would be a bigger priority, but in their short-sightedness, they don't see that.Ahabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14675629709031865432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5077809256320470141.post-24888144091538729532014-03-26T06:27:18.055-04:002014-03-26T06:27:18.055-04:00Kingdom issue! Well, if it's a KINGDOM issue....Kingdom issue! Well, if it's a KINGDOM issue... :) This kind of rhetoric just shows how irrelevant these guys are. They can't see that their views are from another era. <br /><br />I can't help but wonder how many of them are practically experts on, uh..."homosexual intimacy" when they're alone with their computers.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09591981716535134038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5077809256320470141.post-32584823789046232122014-03-25T23:35:09.041-04:002014-03-25T23:35:09.041-04:00The fundamentalist crowd says "the poor will ...The fundamentalist crowd says "the poor will suffer"...I am poor. The only reason I have a computer is because someone upgraded, and passed the old one, gently used to me...people from my church...a church that all those people and their leaders who are posting nasty remarks about World Vision don't like, because not everyone wears the label "Christian"...why, some of them are even (GASP!) atheist, humanist, agnostic, buddhist and pagan, and we have gay members, too...My experience over the last 12 years is that my fellow UUs are more Christ-like than the majority of Christians I have known over the years...I am on disability, which took me a decade after nearly dying 3 times in less than a year to get, even though I paid in to SS and Medicare my entire working life and had enough work credits...they want to take that away from me...the poor have been suffering for decades now...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
