But there are evangelical leaders that are the contemporary versions of the Pharisees and Sadducees,
and evangelical followers which are the equivalent of the people who followed and fell in line with the Pharisees and Sadducees. I'd consider the comparison quite apt.
Color me surprised...The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Every time someone responds to a comment about "person X" with "what about person Y," I point out the "whataboutism" at work. I don't think you will find that anywhere in my posts. But feel free to point it out if you think it exists.Last edited by carpedm9587; 09-15-2018, 11:35 AM.The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.
