B...JazzyCat, no one said they were living in fear. But the reply Anna gave just shouts concern for others and you don't have concern without being fearful of some potentially negative action or outcome.<br /><br />So yeah, I was reading something into her statement. It's human nature to do so. If we only ever relied upon and relayed the literal words of others there would never be any advancement in any conversation.<br /><br />And no, it has nothing to do with any "obvious prejudice". Now who's "reading things into statements"? :) The difference is that I'm not going to take offense at the assumption. ;)<br /><br />I freely admit that I'm a skeptic. That I believe in the scientific method and rationalizing decisions based on empirical evidence. This is part of what it is to be a skeptic.<br /><br />With a blog called "Christian Skepticism" I would have expected more open, rational debate. swordbearer appears to be well on their way to being able to provide that but I hold little hope for the others I've seen commenting here.Unifexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12542122428577772826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38434833.post-60904742189970574542009-09-21T12:08:00.438-07:002009-09-21T12:08:00.438-07:00Who is Jack Black?

Do you always read things into statements that are not there?

God wins. Praise the Lord. But I am sickened and appalled by this. I will definitely be praying for (while boycotting) Jack Black, everyone that was in that audience, and everyone who didn't turn the channel on their tv set. And I pray that there were no innocent children that watched this and thought it was ok.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
