Yeh it seems that way , gays can bash, hit, do anything they want to because they are suppossed to be weak and sissified.

I disagree with that statement.  Though I know you said it to make a point. 

I do agree that if they, the gay persons involved, assaulted someone, then yes, they should be held for that offense.  It is after all a free county and anyone can protest what they don't like, without violence being involved hopefully!  While I do support gay rights, as I do any individual's rights, I do not support violence unless in  self-protectionf.  They might not have liked the protests, and it is understandable that they would get angry but resorting to physical harm is wrong.

Certainly my friend!

If you consider the two excerpts that were presented by you and KFC, one might conclude that Jesus was a hypocrite at best or worse a schizophrenic.

If you consider KFC's reference to Matt 5 one might conclude that Christians are to become a doormat to the world if you adhere to the literal text vs. considering the importance of the context here. 

As KFC mentions Jesus is clearly referencing the Torah.  However I disagree with her understanding of the context of Torah.

These laws are not saying that if someone happens slaps you on the right cheek to say, "Thank you sir, may I have another."

Let's consider the passage in Matt 5.

38 “You have heard that it was said, ‘AN EYE FOR AN EYE, AND A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH.’ 39 “But I say to you, do not resist an evil person; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. 40 “If anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, let him have your coat also. 41 “Whoever forces you to go one mile, go with him two.

All four of these verses are under the context of legal retribution in the Torah.  Please refer to the following Torah passages: Ex 21:12-36, Lev 24:17-23, Deut 19:14-21.

This supports the notion of the context of what you provided:

You are right there is NO law about protecting yourself rather on the contrary.  There are several laws that support the contrary!

Christ blew his stack at the money changers because these were most likely Levites who knew better.  These were the priests that were to have studied the Torah and to be advocating fairness and justice.  These priests had forgotten the primary purpose for the Temple.  I believe it is Josephus that goes into depth of the crookedness of the money changers.  

One example was that a man brought his lamb to be offered as a sacrifice in the Temple.  The overseeing priest would tell the man that his lamb was not acceptable and would offer to sell him an ‘acceptable’ lamb for a few shekels more in addition to the ‘trade in’ lamb.  Then the overseeing priest would have a designated servant/herdsman that worked under him take that lamb and literally walk the lamb around the outside wall of the temple.  This would be long enough so that by the time that the servant returned with the so called unacceptable lamb that the previous owner had already entered the temple and would not see the servant return with his ‘defected’ lamb.  The priest would then sell this man’s lamb as an acceptable lamb to the next sucker. (this is my retelling as I didn’t have the ability to quote).

I would equate this scenario to that of a righteous police taking names of all the officers willingly involved in corrupt dealings.

I hope that sufficiently clarifies for you.  

Shalom aleichem

No comments?

That's just it, nothing was done basically the law just let the gays run amok. Why? because of the sickness of the city itself, San Francisco is a city that suffers from an illusion that it is above the law, a law unto itself. They don't care about federal law and the feds do nothing in way of punishment, like cutting off funds to colleges that bar military recruiters from campuses.

WOW what great statements and for anyone to remain silent means to me, that your points were so strongly made they have NOTHING in the way of rebuttal! I declare you the winner of this part of the debate!

not quite.  I just don't want to argue with my friend AD. 

I am quite sure AD can handle any religious debate with anyone here KFC, he is one of the very few I have outside contact with so I know him a little bit.

OK, Happy Thanksgiving day to you and your family KFC.

I know quite well, that we will wind up agreeing to disagree?

Speaking of which, you have mail. 

Crap scratch that.  I received a funky error message from your email servor.

"Mailbox has exceeded the limit"

Impossible I clean mail regularly.

I'm trying again.  I know it says 'fwd' but it isn't ONE OF THOSE.  I just forwarded it from Adventure-Dudette's email and forgot to take the fwd off.

hahaha we seem to come to this quite often don't we?    We're not that far off with each other anyhow...at least I don't think so.     Nothing worth arguing about anyhow! 

Have a Happy Thanksgiving....... to you both~

And may your be filled with joy and family pleasure.
