I hate having a person laboring under the burden of a false

I suspected that your assumptions were false, based on the apparent
fact, that you presented little support for making those
assumptions.
============

Tink, isn't that what I said? I repeat: I clearly made a false
assumption about JC being kind, loving and forgiving. Thanks to
you,
and your refeences to scripture, I have been disabused of such
faulty
notions.

Tink says:
=============
You can see clearly now that your assumption was incorrect, and
your
conclusions based on those assumptions are at best currently
unsupported, and at worst, totally false.
================

Too right, Tink!

I can see clearly now that your JC would never support such crazy,
left-wing, notions as help to the poor, medical aid to those unable
to
pay for it, humane treatment of criminals, respect for those with
differing sexual orientations, and a host of other leftie projects.

You have knocked silly notions of a kind and caring prophet right
out
of my head.

Tink says:
======================
You are probably in the position that until you can present
supportable
assumptions, that you can not make any correct and supportable
conclusions about the above discussion.
===================

Tink, I'm really not sure what you're trying to say here.

Can I make supportable conclusion? Well, sure. IF I can assume that
you
know what you're talking about when you quote scripture, then I
have
supportable assumption. Don't I? (You do know what you're talking
about, right?) So, based on YOUR supportable assumptions, I draw my
conclusions about the nature of JC. Based on what you've said, I
conclude that he's not a very charitable or forgiving guy. Thus,
not a
guy I'd like to emulate. That's the conclusion you wanted me to
reach,
wasn't it?

We must have attended the same schools, cause I came to the same
conclusions
as yourself, after reading Tinker's posts.

Mark --Hopefully, most christians aren't reading Tinker's OT version
of the
NT--

Possibly you did, same data, same conclusion, same credentials,
indicate same limited processing function of alternative data or
conclusions, and limit of credentials. TnT

No. No. No. Tink, now you're falling into the denigration thing. I was
hoping to keep this at the level of a discussion (not a debate). We
don't need winners or losers, we just need to explore the topic.

Based on our exploration, with you providing the biblical background, I
drew my conclusions about the nature of JC. In light of your
interpretation of his take on capital punishment, I saw JC in a less
than positive light.

Since then, you've admonished me several times for jumping to
conclusions, not having data, and I don't know what all. All you need
to do, if this is to be a discussion, is explain to me how I somehow
got hold of the wrong end of the stick.
