Massive Muslim Immigration...

[Sam]

When someone decides to school someone else on charity, it is indeed appropriate to ask them about their own charitable methods.

Charles did not decide to "school" Cow Poke on charity.

His opposition to a public policy saw a rebuttal from Rogue about his private willingness/capacity to house immigrants, which led to Cow Poke demanding to know his level of charity.

Inappropriate.

Actually, Charles had volunteered that he...

Nope. But I will give my share.

I simply asked what that "fair share" was.

What is that, exactly?

No demand - an inquiry. Kinda like in a court room - he opened the door, and I followed up.

And Charles was responding to Rogue's diversion from public policy to private giving. Again, inappropriate.

If he declined to answer your inquiry and you turned and used that against him by casting an aspersion, it was a demand.

Are you competing with Chuck for the title of Tweb Net Nanny? Do we need to hold an election?

Chuck was playing Bible Bingo.

Here's another verse -

Scripture Verse: Matt 5

16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

Chuck was very cowardly hiding behind a verse taken out of context. And you don't think he's capable of standing up for himself?

France, England, Sweden, Germany, Italy, etc...

Has any European host country benefited from Massive Muslim immigration? Besides getting cheap labor?

Why the concentration on Muslims, seer. The U.S is a nation of immigrants. I think the U.S. benefitted, and still do.

Not when confusing support for social policy with ones personal abilities which is the ploy the truly greedy always turn to. The one doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the other. I could both be personally able to give, or do, much for charity, and still support charitable social policies, or not be able to do, give anything, but still support charitable social policy. It's only the greedy that make that argument, i.e. "what do you personally give" because it supports their greedy selfish position on social policy.

You believe murder is consistent with Christianity?

No, it's not. Which would be the point.

Of course it's not, which is why it's stupid to try and equate Christians who committed murder in violation of their religion, with Muslims who commit murder because it is commanded by their religion.

Y'all can act better and it won't be necessary.

He was not. He didn't have to give you a reason why he doesn't need to flash his tax deduction sheets around but he offered a valid one. His had direct application to the issue (it's also why I don't discuss the specifics of my giving in public). Yours, however, is not traditionally associated with a practice of telling people exactly how much you give -- would be weird if it did, since that would conflict with what Jesus taught.

It's inappropriate to accuse someone of cowardice because they don't comply with your inappropriate demand for access to their private books.

[Cow Poke]

He was not.

The boy can't speak for himself, Sam?

[Cow Poke]

He didn't have to give you a reason why he doesn't need to flash his tax deduction sheets...

That's crap. Nobody was asking for that - he made a claim that he gives his fair share. I asked what that was. He could have simply said he tithes 10% or he regularly donates to a shelter, or he simply allows the government to take it out of his paycheck...

Why don't you let him speak, Sam? Are you trying to out-nanny the nanny?

Then what would his answer matter, and if it doesn't matter, then why did you ask?

Another contestant for Nanny of Tweb!

Back on topic to a question that has not been answered:

Is this (the question about the benefit of a given country) the most important question to ask when confronted with people in need? Ideally you don't help others for your own benefit.
