Quote# 53082

[In a thread entitled "Submission vs. Controlling"

In our culture, when someone calls someone else "controlling," there is no need to see their hearts and minds. They are rendering a judgment on someone else - and that judgment is negative. The term "controlling" has a wholly-negative connotation in our modern, feminized society.

I have simply made two points. 1) What feminists consider to be "wrong", no matter how culturally accepted, is not likely to actually be wrong upon inspection of the word of God. 2) Anyone who labels another person as "controlling" is judging them personally - NOT making a judgment that the word of God makes.

I can label you a "liar" or "adulterer" and not be "judging you." The Bible tells us both of those things are wrong in God's sight and we all know what they mean. I cannot call another person "controlling" without personally judging them because being "controlling" is not something that God has defined as a sin.

So I am not a judge, merely a reporter.

What a fucked up twisted way to say, "I'm a jackass, and my god is a jackass, and we are all moronic jackasses". You're a jackass. We get it. We got it long ago that you are all hypocritical, irrational, unintelligent jackasses.

Explain, then, why we see so many different definitions of "adultery" from fundies the world over.

IOW: "Waaaah, I've spent all this time stalking her and telling her what to do and separating her from her friends, and she still left me!"

Who cares what your bronze age fantasy books says? It has nothing to do with the reality I live in.

And I still say you and your pathetic misogynistic gawd deserve nothing more than to be mocked.

So I guess abortion is OK, too, since it's not something that God has defined as a sin, either

So in essence you admit that at no stage are you actually thinking for yourself and instead, you use a book to do the thinking and decision making for you.

Well done. Let me know how that works out for you.

Um, wasn't Jesus' big famous scene stopping people from stoning an adulterer with the words "He who is without sin cast the first stone"? I think that would be judging people according to your magic man-god.

What the hell is this word salad? I can pick up a whiff of misogyny, but the whole 'controlling' argument makes zero sense.

I think the idea here is that God's own word, alleged to be infallible (although, I can't help but be aware of several cases of Talmudic nullification by a small swarm of establishors of guilt; the requirements for making sure that a disobedient son really is deserving of execution come to mind), has already performed judgement on deception and adultery. The sharp-line follower is more messenger than judge. Since no such condemnation of control is detected, though, then the speaker IS judge, not messenger.

I guess the best analogy is a king who sends a messenger to a far-off duchy to recite from memory a condemnation of the duke's deeds. Contraeverything fancies himself as the messenger, God as the king, and us as the (supposedly) corrupt duchy.

"I can label you a "liar" or "adulterer" and not be "judging you." The Bible tells us both of those things are wrong in God's sight and we all know what they mean."

In order to label anybody anything, you must first have judged them to be such.

And you also have to prove they are what you say they are, or you are bearing false witness, and the bible tells us that bearing false witness is a big no-no.
