Would anyone be interested in setting up a Facebook group. It could be for Chritisns or people curious about Christianity. We could discuss anything, give advice, talk about scripture we need help understanding etc.

It would just be nice to have a place safe to discuss without non Christians jumping in posts with their bit about Leviticus.

Any thoughts? Or if anyone else has a group or want a to set one up im happy to join.

Just out of curiosity, what's your issue with Leviticus?

speakout · 24/05/2018 21:22

I want to know more about Leviticus.

Do tell.

Jaytee38 · 24/05/2018 21:28

I have no issue with it. I just get bored of atheists using it to knock Christianity.

speakout · 24/05/2018 21:34

But it's your book.

WiseOldElfIsNick · 24/05/2018 21:41

How can parts of the central book of Christianity be used to knock Christianity? That makes no sense.

Jaytee38 · 24/05/2018 21:43

I said atheists use it that way.

WiseOldElfIsNick · 24/05/2018 21:47

How do they do that?

Fink · 24/05/2018 21:48

There are a few FB groups and specifically Christian forums around. I wouldn't mind being part of another one. Why don't you do a search and see if you're interested in any of the pre-existing ones. If you do set one up I'd probably join.

Jaytee38 · 24/05/2018 21:48

I'm sure you know perfectly well. This isn't why I started this thread. So I'll finish this here.

So it's wrong to quote parts of the bible because it knocks christianity??

Em OK then.

Except it is your holy book .

So quoting only nice bits is OK?

Jaytee38 · 24/05/2018 21:55

No. What's wrong is somebody ask about setting up a fb page for Christians. I personally don't understand why atheists jump into any Christian thread. I don't see the same done on the pagan ones or any Islam threads. I wouldn't go on an atheist thread. However I get seriously bored of the Leviticus posts.

Jaytee38 it was you who mentioned Leviticus.
Piqued my curiosity- that's all.

Is there a problem with Leviticus? Is that why you thought to mention it?

speakout · 24/05/2018 22:01

However I get seriously bored of the Leviticus posts.

So why mention Leviticus?

speakout · 24/05/2018 22:03

OP no one would have come in to question this thread if you had not included this phrase
without non Christians jumping in posts with their bit about Leviticus.

Jaytee38 · 24/05/2018 22:05

Yes youre right i did mention it. No I have no problem. Literally though any atheists I know throw Leviticus at you when they know you're a Christian. It would be nice to use a different part of the bible.

OP posts:
Jason118 · 24/05/2018 22:06

Yes, there are plenty of other bits you could use SmileSmile

speakout · 24/05/2018 22:14

Timothy 2:12, in which the saint says: "I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, she must be silent."

Is quite a nice one.

Or
Ephesians 5:22, "Wives, submit to you husbands as to the Lord";

is fun.

“Slaves, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the cruel.” (1 Peter 2:18)

Always gets a laugh in our house.

Jaytee38 · 24/05/2018 23:07

Twice I've sent s reply and it's not posted. I will try again tomorrow

Hi Jaytee,

Have you seen the Christian Chat thread? That is usually fairly safe.

I understand your frustration with this section.

WiseOldElfIsNick · 25/05/2018 08:55

I don't see the same done on the pagan ones or any Islam threads.

It does happen, actually. But perhaps because its not your religion you don't notice.

Exodus 21 is my favourite, personally.

Jaytee38 · 25/05/2018 21:23

Thanks pickle
