Is judging or condemning people who are different a priority over and above loving?

Just wondering.

a hypothetical question? This includes believers and non-believers alike. No one seems to be exempt from doing this. Yes that includes me. I am not above my own nature all the time.

i've good reason to believe 1 corinthians 15:5,6 means that the 500, James and all the apostles saw Jesus at the one time at the ascension. its usually taken to mean separate appearances i think as its not been asked before.

This song was written by A B Simpson. A dear brother in the Lord decades ago.

Once it was the blessing/
Now it is the Lord/
Once it was the feeling/
Now it is His word
Once His gift I wanted
Now the Giver own
Once I sought for healing
Now Himself alone

Chorus
All in all forever
Only Christ I'll sing
Everything is in Christ
And Christ is EVERYTHING!


Once 'twas painful trying
Now 'tis perfect trust
Once a half salvation
Now the uttermost
Once 'twas ceaseless holding
Now He holds me fast
Once 'twas constant drifting
Now my anchor's cast


Once 'twas busy planning
Now 'tis trustful prayer
Once 'twas anxious caring
Now He has the care
Once 'twas what I wanted
Now what Jesus says
Once twas constant asking
Now ' tis ceaseless praise!!


Once it was my working
His it hence shall be
Once i tried to use Him
Now He uses me
Once the power I wanted
Now.. THE MIGHTY ONE!
Once for self I labored
Now for Him alone

The unabashed truth is I may be old but I am not sweet.
Neither are a lot of elderly who are older than me and who have lived wretched lives.
Sure, some people mellow with age, but that's not always the case, a lot get 'set in their ways'.
So why should anyone, per se, even Children, autmatically respect someone just because they are older??
Isn't that plain wrong, not to mention hypocritical?

Yesterday I spent 15 minutes finding my choir folder, set it down to put on my coat and went to choir. I got there and asked my daughter where my folder was - it was still on the kitchen table!!!

(Unfortunately, I don't think this is a function of age with me!)

so wouldn't it be safe to say that if somebody on R&S only answered questions with a hateful and condescending attitude to everybody he didn't like, that this hypothetical person might be a nonChristian who is only here to make Christians look bad with his diatribes of hatefulness?

Just a few examples. Honestly I don't care what they answer, but I get sort of sick of the whole "poor perseuted Christians" who get's picked on by the atheist. Why is it they can do the same thing but someone it's "different"?

I feel like to earn their candy bar, the kids have to work for it. Their costumes must show a certain level of effort and creativity. How can I give candy to the kids who actually tried to look original and turn down the kids with generic costumes without seeming impolite? Thanks.

I have a colleague who is married who confided in me that he has developed a strong desire for redheaded men, and no other types. He still loves his wife and is otherwise straight, but has told me that since his late twenties, redheaded guys really turn him on. Not that I blame him!

Walking on water is one thing, but really, is Jesus prepared for the complex traps and magical tricks now available to governments, the world over, when He returns?

Maybe we should reconsider whom to trust, believe and follow.

I'd like to suggest the theme to 'Welcome Back, Kotter'.

I highly advise against Kool and the Gang's "Celebration", though. I would imagine even Jesus is sick of that song.
