In Dominion by historian Tom Holland, he makes a strong case that we (i.e. followers and former followers of Victor Wierwille) miss SOOOOOOO much perspective on how Christendom influenced Western Civilization. Victor had some idea but he grossly missed the mark, IMO. Indeed, the point, as WW said it, misses the fact that the Roman Empire discarded unruly slaves by hanging (IOW crucifixion). It was a common practice, apparently.

Alas, it was only after having been tricked by Victor Wierwille's "ministry" for more than a dozen years did I learn to recognize this very salient point.

I use his name without the honorifics. I call him Victor Wierwille.

The way I look at things like this now is through the lens of what society understands, in general. I'm not afraid to believe that homosexually oriented people are human beings just like you and me. IMO, God doesn't hate them or consider them "wrong." They just are, just like you and I are humans.

Whenever I watch the intro to an episode of Jeopardy, when Johnny Gilbert introduces Ken Jennings, I still am stuck on expecting him to say Alex Trebek. It's a mental habit... of my expectation. IOW, don't beat yourself up about it Penguin2.

To me, it's no wonder you consider yourself atheist after the childhood description you left on another thread.

So sorry you had to go through that Edgar.

Wow! I've never gotten PSA readings that high (IIRC).

Is The Way International a Christian Nationalist group?
Rocky replied to penworks's topic in About The Way
Perhaps because of a pervasive practice of sexual predation and depravity? That's what I was getting at. Perhaps my post above also was too ambiguous. -

True! But what risk in particular? -
Veneration of Mary: Are Catholics right after all?
Rocky replied to oldiesman's topic in Doctrinal: Exploring the Bible
Frankly, I don't believe the idea originated with Kirk. I concur w/ the edit.
