there are many great thinkers who appreciate the bible for the teaching on how to treat fellow man, and the vast majority 99% and higher, are not using it to dupe people or dispose of reality, but understand people better, and to understand reality of the situations they currently face.

dooves signature is actually overly simplistic, and categorically judgemental.So be it.
Jack, seriously. Who comes on here, posts a question and does not participate in the thread? If she was actively participating, then I would not have an issue with this. Otherwise, until then, that is the offhanded advice I am giving. In my eyes, a true provider would start a thread and participate. A fly by night provider would start a thread and not care about the dialogue that follows because it was really just an ad. MANY providers do this, and they usually get called out on it. Some providers will even tell you right out that ANY post they make, even if legitimate, is still an ad. Now this is not the end of the world. It has even gotten to the level of comedy as we now call them threADs. Some people just can't find the humor in it. Some people take themselves WAYYYY to seriously and need to lighten up a bit.

And let's not forget the parts about hating gay people.
