      Not if it isn't part of the quote. If you're going to criticise grammar and punctuation rather than provide any meaningful response, you should learn it first.

        It isn't a "no". It's a "you won't believe me no matter what I say, so I'm not going to frustrate myself any further by trying to explain the character of God to you".

        Why don't YOU go and do an in depth study on God's character and why He would not and does not condone plural marriage or any other sexual relationship outside of marriage between one man and one woman regardless of how many times it happened in the OT and He didn't say anything at the time, and then maybe we'll talk.

          In my understanding, American English and British English treat this somewhat differently.

                No, it should be inside the quote marks unless it would make the sentence confusing. https://eliteediting.com/resources/p...otation-marks/

                But maybe it is different over there in England.

                  I take it this is an in-group out-group thing and she's sweet to those she considers her in-group. Because, I dunno if you can read, but she isn't being particularly sweet to Roy and myself in this thread. In my years of posting here I've seen nothing but excessive nastiness from her toward people. Maybe she's nice to you personally, and that's tricked you into thinking she's "one of the sweetest people"? But do you even read the bile she spouts toward gay people and atheists constantly? Not to mention how vicious she gets when moderating posts that upset her.

                    Well, I'm extra special nice to you, but you hatifies me!

                      What gay people have I "spouted bile" at? You, perhaps? Proof, please.

                      And I haven't even moderated anything for a very long time. I certainly don't remember being "vicious". Again, show me some proof of your allegations.

                      And any excessive nastiness I might show toward SOME of the atheists on this site stems from the vicious bile you and your good friends here spout about believers and God.

                      But, you go ahead and play the victim. And I'll let my reputation as a fair moderator speak for itself.

                        I kinda wondered about that, too.... if you "spouted bile", it's not because they were gay - it might be that they happened to be gay... I'm lost on that one!

                          I've never spouted bile at anybody, gay or otherwise.

                          Trust me, you'd know it.

                          I tell a person what I think, and if they happen to take offense at it, which they will if they are gay and they don't like to hear God's opinion on homosexuality, then that is on them.

                            Riiiiiiiiight. You just like to remind people of "God's" hatred of homosexuality.

                            And you've convinced yourself this is not you just being nasty. And you've convinced yourself it's really "God" who hates the homosexuality, not you. And you've convinced yourself it's okay for you to be breaking Canadian hate-speech laws by publishing these sorts of comments about homosexuality. And you've convinced yourself it's not really "spouting bile".

                            Wow. What a... "sweet person"... as Sparko put it.


                            EDIT: Have changed "homosexuals" to "homosexuality".

                              There's a difference between being anti-homosexuality and being anti-homosexual.

                                I haven't said anything against homosexuals. I've spoken what God says about homosexuality. I do not hate homosexuals. I pity them for being lost in their lifestyle and separated from God.

                                I pity you for your lostness.

                                And I am no different from any other Christian on this site or in the world who believes that God's word is the final authority.

                                Where are your links for my supposed behaviour? Having trouble finding them?

                                Your lack of posting links to my behaviour implies that you are lying about their existence.
