well there is 10 of them that come to mind when talking about said pricinples.

I don't know whether you've read the Bible cover to cover, but I have - including the begats. It is full of contradictions and there is a quote held within for just about every argument you would like to prove about almost anything, and those that you can't prove with literal interpretation you could probably find with a poetic one.

Just a reminder, these are the 10 commandments LOL

I am the Lord your God, You shall have no other God before me.
You shall not use the Lord's Name in vain.
Remember to keep Sabbath day holy.
Honour your father and mother.
You shall not commit murder.
You shall not commit adultery.
You shall not steal.
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
You shall not covet your neighbor's wife.
You shall not covet your neighbor's goods.

Mark. Eating unclean animals was a an old jewish ceremonial law, not one of the moral laws. The priests were told not to go into the holiest part of the tabernacle in an unclean condition. So some died as a result of doing this.
In the New Testament, we are told not to judge anyone according to holy days, or to what they can and cannot eat, so these are not commands for today.

The New Testament under Jesus is about forgiveness and grace to all. The moral laws (Do not kill, steal etc are there to protect us from causing harm and dysfunction to ourselves, our families and societies, not to force us just to be do goodies. I've broken many of the commands myself so I ain't judging anyone or condemning anyone here. True Christianity is all about acknowledging our faults and coming to the cross for forgiveness, not to exalt ouselves as a self righteous perfect person who is better than everybody else. So if "supposed" Christians have come across as cold hearted, hypocritical, unloving people, then these are the exact type of people that crucified Jesus around 2000 years ago. I have met many of these people myself, so I can totally understand how it can shape our opinions in life.

Laugh and give yourselves high 5's and think your clever all you like. This is a divisive issue which is not needed in our game. Nobody in our country should hate a person if they choose to live a gay lifestyle. There are many in our country who are hard working Aussies with good families who believe that God ordained marriage between a man and a woman. You don't have to believe that at all. I will nothate you for having that opinion. What I am saying is keep both sides of the debate out of our sporting bodies.

The NRL announced who the GF entertainment would be on August 31 from what I could see from a quick Google. I'm sure the negotiations began much earlier. So it would seem to me that the relevance of the artist and songs to the current SSM cluster**** taking over the country are coincidental. More dumb luck from the NRL getting a ****load of extra publicity and hype for a game that was struggling to get any headlines other than how bad the crowd would be.

So there’s a pretty big footy game in this weekend hey........
Yeah. I guess your right. I promise to behave myself from now on and will only respond to questions directed specifically at me in the above matter. The persecution doesn't worry me. I have been copping it for 33 years. If Chad has a claim to be the Minister of Poetry, then I would formally like to introduce myself as the Hated Chaplain.

I could retell my entire GF 2016 from wake up to bed time I reckon but if you asked me who the entertainment was or what they sang I honestly couldn't even guess.

Been to a few GFs and SOO but only entertainment I remember was Billy Idol on his hovercraft with no POWAH!

Just having a bit of fun with it mate. I actually like the name though in some crazy way. Looking forward to having more chats about the footy in the days and times ahead. Really enjoy reading all the different strong opinions in all these threads.

Macklemore has one song I like.

Not sure what it's called but it warns of the dangers of prescription medication and the double standards of them being legalised whilst doing as much harm as the ones people are arrested for.
