General Off-Topic Board / Re: Did I get jipped??« on: July 28, 2005, 03:14:17 AM »
It's actually "gypped", by the way. It's an old-school slam on Gypsies, kinda like "Indian-giver" is to Native Americans.

General board for soon-to-be 1Ls / What's a fellow?« on: July 26, 2005, 09:49:21 PM »
One of the stipulations of my scholarship is that during my second and third years at law school I become a fellow. What's a fellow? They say I'll receive a small stipend, but other than that, I don't have a clue.
Any help appreciated. 35

I don't participate and won't, I am waiting till I am married, as a moral person should do. It's not your job as a Christian to tell other people what they should or shouldn't do. You bring people to Christ through your actions and attitude, not through quasi-preaching and spreading hate on a message board. 37

Yes, that's why it's called sodomy, but that's not the point.
From a Christian perspective, homosexuality is a sin. But it's no more a sin that premarital heterosexual sex is. Or stealing a pack of gum. The only sex that is sanctioned in the Christian faith is that which occurs in a marriage. Marriage symbolizes the marriage of the church to Christ, hence why the church is called the bride of Christ. Sex, in Christian belief, serves three purposes: 1. Procreation 2. Love of your mate (Song of Solomon reads like a romance novel at times.) 3. Symbol of Christ's union to the church. I don't agree with homosexuality, but I also don't judge them because I let my dog out of the pen before the master came home too. I'm no better than they are. 38

It is impossible to live in our society and not, in some way, support everything the government does. Don't like the Iraq war? Tough- your tax dollars are funding it. Don't have school-age children- guess what? Your tax dollars are paying to teach kids you don't even have. Don't drive a car- doesn't matter, you helped build the interstate system. My point is, unless you want to pull a Thoreau and spend a night in jail, you need to get used to paying for things you don't necessarily approve of. The point of government is to rule by the consent of the governed- if a majority of the people (and the Supreme Court, to boot) find vouchers constitutional, your personal opinion means virtually nothing. |
