AJ Philips: 'hounding' was in reference to AGIR, so my apologies for the confusion.

Steven: the only thing that i have done to draw your anger (and that of others) is to be a Muslim. I love Islam...what to do?

Democracy: "Well may we say God save the Queen...for nothing will save the Governor General" I was in the car with Mum just after the intersection Park Rd and Doncaster Rd, travelling towards Doncaster when this came over the radio. So fear not..i know about Australian democracy

I have no idea what you're driving at with your last post.

All I know is that you've evaded a key question. You've given a "reason" for your evasion which is complete taurine fertiliser.

And so in a way you have answered the question. So now I know what you are.

Do we have anything more to say to each other?

To me a fundamentalism is a mind set, and an understanding of the fundamental principles governing a subject, what ever it may be, life, death, flying, welding, mechanics ecetra. The fundamentals of christianity are what is in the bible with nothing added or subtracted. Not what we believe it says. Narrow is the way, Life not death. Light not darkness. Understanding not misunderstanding. Mans opinion never changes the fundamentals or ruling principles for they are only opinions. eg If you do what is right and do it right it works. If you chose to do it your way and not follow the instruction manual you are always heading for the wrong way. It is not the thud at the end of drop that was the wrong choice but the defying of the law of gravity. The law of aerodynamics gets a different result. Man is a three part being. We are a spirit
(life, breath, force). We have a soul which is made up of our mind or interlect, our will or freedom to chose, and our emotions made up of our feelings or senses, ( touch, smell, see, taste)
and we live in an earthernware body. Without understanding we make incorrect or wrong choices leading to wrong conclusions. Incomplete knowledge can lead to unexpected concequences. Education takes time and if we had a 1000 years we would not have all knowledge so seek wisdom for if any man lacks wisdom ask God who gives generously to All as he is no respecter of persons, He does not have favourites only sons and daughters. God hates sin, not people as sin separates us from Gods best for our lives.

Dear Richie 10,

It ain't no sin
To take off your skin,
And dance around in your bones.

Your "key question" was totally off topic and only "key" for you. Despite this I gave you an honest answer and in return i receive abuse. You obviously didn't get the answer you wanted and your behaviour is akin to a child nagging the parents for an icecream.

People like yourself are like spoilt children who have nothing better to do than interupt other peoples conversations until it becomes impossible to have a sensible discussion. You have no idea what democracy entails in terms of responsibilities.
