As a structure of law to attempt to live by.

All sin is not covered in the Commandments.

And...your continued spewing revolves around a semi-interview from GQ -- and because someone else uncovered a sermon, that now. You have NO idea how and what was said during the whole GQ hangout day the author had. You have no idea what he picked and decided to publish. You are basing all of your ASSumptions off of 2-3 quotes from GQ. You ever thought about the whole day had more said than 4 quotes? You ever thought there may be more to the story and what his comments revolve around? Probably not. That doesn't require copy/paste.
"I never, with my eyes, saw the mistreatment of any black person. Not once." said Phil Robertson
Gosh their was no “lack of segregation” in Caddo Parish, Louisiana during the time that Phil Robertson was there. It was an area of hard core Jim Crow, Klan activity and a growing black resistance. And what does he come up, happy blacks not singing the blues. That is right he said nothing about segregation. He went to segregated schools, he used whites only facilities, he had opportunities offered to him that were not available to blacks like an athletic scholarship to Louisiana Tech. But he only sees happy blacks.
You know what supporters of slavery used to claim that blacks were happy under that system, then they carried that same claim about Jim Crow. The earlier apologists only saw what they wanted to see to defend atrocious systems, Phil comes out as another of these acolytes of evil, lying to protect evil institutions.
Has he complained about being misquoted or being quoted out of context in his GQ interview or in his sermon. He is a homophobe and a racist.

Nice try.

Jesus mentions on several occasions that certain sins/laws matter more than others.

Not to mention there is one sin that is unforgivable. Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.

Never really cared about the outcome. The fun part of the debate was the outrageous hypocrisy from both sides and the ignorance of what free speech actually means.

The collectivism philosophy that always wants to group people together is the main cause for these overreactions.
So if one makes a statement that is a true statement (statistically) while grouping a certain group together they are perpetuating racism?

For instance, if someone says "man, the blacks really supported Obama in the last election", it would be a true statement would it not?

Sounds like the "boycott" may have actually worked. The writing was on the wall with the steep drop in ratings.

Why can't the statement be the majority of people supported Obama? Still factually true yet leaves race out of it. Using group identity versus individuals making their own decision lends itself to racism. Individual thinking/knowledge and liberty are the biggest opponents of racism. Your statement is correct but unnecessary.

The Government has done a fantastic job in putting people in groups(voting blocks) and most people are not really informed enough to think like an individual so they fall right into the collectivist trap. So now groups lobby the government for special rights/deals and whichever party bends over the lobbying groups convince the average person to vote for that party because that party has the group's best interest at heart.

Also I am not saying your statement is racist or that you are for saying it. Just that line of thinking opens the door for racism to exist.

Technically, it wouldn't be fully accurate. "The blacks" didn't unless 100% of them did. "Most of the blacks really supported Obama in the last election," would be accurate, because the statistical data validates its truth.

When one uses a blanket descriptor, it becomes less accurate. "White people live in Europe and North America," is not true, at least entirely.

I know SEVERAL people whose skin is as white as mine who, with their families are, and have been, living in Africa and South America (and probably a couple in Asia, as well). The fact is, white people can be found on every continent. So "white people" actually live on all continents. Might it be true that MOST white people live in Europe and North America? Perhaps (I don't have the census stats, and I'm lazy this evening). But when you don't offer the potential for a sliding scale (some, many, most, etc.), the statement becomes, or at least is communicated to be, a blanket statement.

"Christians claim 'faith' as the reason they believe what they do."

"People with light blond hair have blue or green eyes."

"Men don't know how hard it is to be a woman in the world today."

"Straight people don't get why it's hard to be gay in America."

These claims might be true of a notable percentage of the segment mentioned (again, I have no numbers ... sue me). However, if it's false of even one (and I suggest it is for every example listed), it's not fully accurate.

Are saying this was a nice try answering yoru question why the commandments exist?

Are you saying the Commandments are not a structure a law for us to attempt to live by?


Sorry Pmoney...you know not what you speak.

The proof is in the result of sinning.

All sin separates us from God, none more than the other. That's what sin is.

We are to take all of God's word into account, in context. Therefore, the Bible teaches us that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is unforgivable. All other sins are forgivable. However, this does not mean that all sins will be forgiven. It means that all these other sins can be forgiven. We are forgiven only when we trust in Christ and Him alone for the forgiveness of our sins. Those who have committed blasphemy of the Holy Spirit will never seek Christ because the Holy Spirit will not work on them.

Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit isn't any worse that any other sin in God's eyes. It's does , however, keep it from being present in one's heart....necessary for forgiveness. This doesn't tear us away from God any more than other sins. Not being with God is not being with God.

must not have seen those "whites only signs" must not have noticed the blacks he worked with did not go to the same school he did, but to a much crappier one, must not have noticed none got scholarships to Louisiana Tech like he did. Must not have noticed the local black protest against segregation. "None are so blind as those who will not see."

there are normal people at this site, really. How about a guy who posted 13, 557 times in the last 4 years instead of doing real interaction with family and friends. Now those are symptoms a limited, but intense range of interest and limits on your social relations with those supposedly closest to you.
