http://www.christianpost.com/art…- There are fantastic biblical principles that can be applied to operating a business.teleos
- Like not paying taxes.czawada
- Nope. Jesus held up a coin and said "render unto Ceasar what is Ceasar's". We gotta pay.teleos
- your church doesnt though, even though it isn't a religion in your estimation.mrdobolina
- faith based organizations which do not generate revenue are not taxed in this country. Should this change?teleos
- yes.mrdobolina
- good luck with that. ;)teleos
- Oh I know. but it is stupid. Untaxed money is used to buy television networks to solicit more donations. that is building a business.mrdobolina
- the definition of a business.mrdobolina
- But that is an unwarranted generalization. Most churches don't have TV ministries.teleos
- I know, but they have the same rules, that is wrong.mrdobolina
- what is "wrong" in this context? Tell why, epistemologically, something is "wrong"?teleos
- you see no difference between Pat Robertson's Outfit and a small church?mrdobolina
- Do you really use the word "epistemologically" in casual conversation?mrdobolina

mrdobolina, as you have been told before, the 10 commandments were designed to demonstrate our sin and perfection of God's law. But they cannot save us. The purpose of the 10 commandments is to drive us to the foot of the cross, seeking mercy.
- at what point will you realize I am not buying what you are selling?mrdobolina
- Hey Dobs, no offense, but maybe at the point when you realise he aint selling what you're resisting!Spookytim
- When you stop asking your skeptic 101 style questions?teleos
- your juvenile attempts at razzing actually provide a nice springboard for...teleos
- ...demonstrating important points to honest lurkers.teleos
- yeah I am the only one who does it.mrdobolina
- No, you're just the worst at it. Please try a little bit harder. D for effort.teleos
- Its a non arguement. You're both on different side of the fence. Neither will change the other's POV. LALD.Spookytim
- someone needs to combat the nonsense.mrdobolina
- But they feel the same way Dobs. You both generate the nonsense attempting to neutralise each others POV.Spookytim
- combat the nonsense! ...but don't ask me errr... why I should. -mrdobolinateleos
- dobs pushes his opinion on everyone the way that he says religious people push their religion onto others.kona
- and conveniently never states what he believes. He's a coward and quite sad really.teleos
- my opinions can be tested. religious dogma can't.mrdobolina
- tell us how the scientific method works, mrdobs. And what specific "opinions" of your's can be tested.teleos
- go ahead, we're all ears.teleos
- my opinions could potentially be proved wrong is what I mean, religion just can';t I guess?mrdobolina
- you're using to general of terms. How could one test "religion"?teleos
- you're missing the point.mrdobolina

Does anybody here like Paté?

Here at the office we get all these Small Business mags for some reason. And I remember they did a whole article on Faith Based businesses - whole networks of banks, real estate agents, insurance companies, etc. that just cater to the christian evangelicals. They had to deal with some lawsuits when people who weren't christians were hired and consequently not given promotions, raises, etc. But it was one of those shiny happy articles about how advertising and marketing and setting up a Jesus business was Good Business!

"...people who exploit Christianity with ANY sort of marketing ploy..."

There is a love for diversity here. The free marketplace of ideas. Tolerance flows freely.

I'm with Amersanderson, in all seriousness—people who exploit Christianity with retarded marketing ploys make me see blood red.
- After my initial bewilderment, I'm both pissed and in hysterics. There's no way they can be serious.Ampersanderson
- Heh...I sure hope not. Then again, stranger things have happened...gramme
- .. as opposed to "legitimate" marketing ploys?? hahaha- that made my dayBonSeff
- yeah, good point.Ampersanderson
- BonSeff0
well i guess if you are gonna exploit that shit, might as well go full-force.

instead of having this discussion again, wouldn't it just be easier for you guys to copy and paste in stuff you've already said from one of the other religion threads?
