Comments on: Albert Mohler on Gay “Marriage” Case http://www.dennyburk.com/albert-mohler-on-gay-%e2%80%9cmarriage%e2%80%9d-case/ A commentary on theology, politics, and culture Sun, 12 Feb 2012 06:07:42 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Brent http://www.dennyburk.com/albert-mohler-on-gay-%e2%80%9cmarriage%e2%80%9d-case/#comment-38128 Brent Tue, 03 Jun 2008 19:07:42 +0000 http://www.dennyburk.com/?p=1995#comment-38128 I don't think that's fair either. After all, it was Derek who said, <i>"How exactly would you know whether my comment in post #2 referred to Mohler’s analysis since you’re too busy with your Biblical studies to listen to it?"</i> How many phrases can I think of to describe this? "Snide"? "Hypocritical"? "Sidestepping Bryan's legitimate defense for his question completely"? I don’t think that’s fair either.

FWIW, I don’t think it’s fair to hang that on Bryan in this exchange.

There’s always been disagreement but now it’s a complete us versus them mentality and people treating others they disagree with like enemies. It’s very sad." Brian, do you not realize you are one of the leaders in this? “It’s a shame how polarized this blog has gotten. There’s always been disagreement but now it’s a complete us versus them mentality and people treating others they disagree with like enemies.

It’s very sad.”

Oh the irony. Let me explain. It was tongue in cheek to make a point about this entire discussion. I didn't really expect you to answer. I wasn't going back and forth. I was conceding a point to you. I didn't realize that one had to qualify or meet certain criteria before interjecting one's opinion. And you are accusing others of being paranoid? Oh the irony.

You know, I don't really know who you are at all JNG. I don't remember interacting/debating or discussing anything with you. That's what makes this so sad, that you seem to have a lot of antipathy towards me, so much so that you felt the need to jump on here and and vent about me and put me down and I don't even remember who you are. This is a waste of time. I'm done. later. Bryan JNG,

Oh and you must answer my question because I am entitled to your answer. Why you ask, because I am not debating with you and just want to see with genuine and sincere interest what your position is on this so I can further my understanding of it. Do you not see how silly that sounds? I have been around longer than a few months and have read several of the archives. You often pull the I am not debating just asking a question card, but you are right you have debated and thus my terminology of "never" was incorrect. Ok I got a clue, now what?

JNG you don't know what your talking about. Get a clue will ya. Read back through the archives and you'll see I've done quite a bit of debating here. How long have you been here? A few months? Am I not allowed to just ask a question now and then? If this were meant to be a set up then Derek had already given me enough to shoot back but as it is I just wanted to know about what he was envisioning and he answered so that's it. It's a shame how polarized this blog has gotten. There's always been disagreement but now it's a complete us versus them mentality and people treating others they disagree with like enemies.

He just likes to toss loaded questions around and then take a stance of entitlement and moral highground, because well he isn't "debating". Psst, no one buys it Bryan. Bryan L never wants to debate.
