    Then why did you say truth is only subjective, not eternal? Your actual words were "truth is in the eye of the beholder". The phrase you misquoted is about beauty, not truth. Don't bother replying. You shouldn't embarrass yourself any further.

    It appears as if you take everything that you read concerning the Bible at face Value?
    Well, walter, you show up and start with the nastiness immediately. Is this how Christians are to behave? This website is doing you no good. Best depart or start over with a nod to your self-proclaimed faith.

    Wow! You might just have the chops to become a bestselling fiction writer!
    I'm up for it if you are? I'll start right away, just need to record 'Your Truth'...Fiction at it's finest.
    I was thinking of posting all the times you've contradicted yourself. You are in extreme danger! Stop with this Holy-homosexual dribble.

    you show up and start with the nastiness immediately.
    Come on, You guys are always brutal (with each other)! What's nasty about it, Homosexual activity? I'm telling it how I see it. I have a hard time understanding where WG is coming from half the time. I say something and her immediate response in always- Nope!, Nooo! and then I say the same "exact thing" later on and she says thank you for post, I enjoyed it??? She is clearly closed minded! [And] For her to say JL is closed minded, pffft!

    Another non-reply from you. You ARE consistent.

    You see that as permission to be the same? Following the herd is not usually the Christian thing to do. Courage, young Walter.

    What's nasty about it, Homosexual activity? Enlighten me please, what do you consider Nasty? Forget it!
    Point being, I see it as WG, having a closed mind, when she herself declares JL as having a closed mind.
    Her first response is always the same- NO! NOOO! NO, try again etc.! Doesn't even read the Topic, or post, it's simply NOOOOOO!
    Is this how Christians are to behave?
    You tell me.

    You tell me. {RE CHRISTIAN BEHAVIOR}
    Be glad to.

    Replying to WG should be in line with your previous rather lengthy sermons-in-words here. I have no objection to those but I think you should practice what you preach.

    Her statements are tantamount to sacrilege. I don't think she understands what she's saying. It is not going to end well if she continues with such talk. It would be harmful to practice what she preaches!

    Your reply was anything but specific. It was "consider yourself told". That was not subtle - it was meaningless. If it's an Australian idiom, enlighten us.

    Now you're sounding like a Pharisee.

    What does that mean? Who are you to judge?

    That was meant for you, not her.

    Huh? About what?
    You were asked some serious questions, and you responded with silliness about becoming a writer of fiction. That's what you claim to dislike, and yet you do it constantly.

    That's not very subtle, is it?

    In any case, that's not much of a reply to the charge that you confused truth and beauty. I trust your fellow Aussies are a bit more straightforward and don't hide behind "expletives deleted".

    I, and my fellow aussies just get a little sick of hearing some arguments and feel that sometimes some need to be reminded

    What is truth, it is in the eye of the beholder,
    That is not at all what you said; it's not even close. I posted it above just so you can be reminded. That is what Athos responded to where you claimed truth was, "in the eye of the beholder". I can't imagine you meant it, so if anyone was confused, it was you.

    Another instance of your poor comprehension. I said this to waltero: "Wow! You might just have the chops to become a bestselling fiction writer!"

    Waltero's "questions" were silly, even ridiculous, and not worth answering.
