Ever consider just saying to someone that: "we should just agree to disagree...."? Sometimes, that may be the best way to leave it since you are not going to change their mind.

Now here we have an accord.

However, the judgments you are trying to pass off on me are wildly untrue.

My take from your posts:

You are an extremely biased, judgmental, inconsiderate individual. Since we are Sharing thoughts. Childish at times as well.

See how easy that was.

Try not to be too defensive in all of your responses above....
Yes, I think I am biased on a number of topics and think many others are as well.

Yes, I am judgmental and also think that it human nature, regardless of what the Christian Bible advocates we should be.

Am I inconsiderate? Maybe, I can act in an inconsiderate manner at times, but on the whole, my family and professional work colleagues would probably disagree with you assuming that I am an inconsiderate person.

Now, am I childish at times....? Maybe...sometimes humor is the best response....

FYI - Some important life lessons that I have grasped and accepted in my life so far, is that the more I learn, the more I realize just how much I do not know and need to learn. Nobody is perfect, we all have our flaws and are trying to do the best we can. These online forums are just one way to express our thoughts and opinions and to seek an informative, interesting dialogue on various topics of interest, going beyond our collective link of owning and driving BMW X5's. At the end of the day, I remind myself not to take myself too seriously, nor any criticisms online personally and to put them into their proper context. None of us are God's gift to any topic and we all can learn from others, if we have an open mind and are willing to do so... All the best to you!

At the end of the day, it’s seems some on the forum cannot handle my “internet personality”.

So you can silence me, but it only goes to show that my argument was valid.

Ditto on everything said above.

Valuable life lessons to live by. Thanks for sharing them AVB.

I come to this thread for some good ole fashion political sparring.

Politics is not something that I engage in, in my private life. So any one who thinks they know my character outside of this thread is mistaken.

Had someone said on this thread, “we’re going to talk politics, but if you disagree, keep your points to yourself”. I would have laughed my Happy ass all the way back to the E53 forum.

I hold no grudge against any member here. I have no violent plot, to commit physical harm to any member, because somebody here offended me. This is the place I come, to blow off some views. Period.

(Spar: engage in argument, typically of a kind that is prolonged or repeated but not violent.)

I have stated before, I am not affiliated with ANY political party.

Politics is always going to bring out a passionate side of people’s human nature. I would hope our politicians, at the end of the day go home and leave the politics on the floor for the next session.

As for me, when I come to this thread. I have a different persona. One that is passionate for getting to the bottom of some very serious concerns that I have, regarding my country. Yeah I get a bit flustered when points I bring are blown off as conspiracies. Which lately here has been pretty much all of them. But I am not one to give in easily. I was taught, if you fail, get up and try again.

I condemn the violence that has and is happening across my country, and I pray in Jesus name there is healing across my land.

It’s sad that we have gotten to a place that we’re silencing people’s right to free speech.

I Have a question:

Regarding prayer,
Ive seen this in the bible.
Can someone please explain what it means?

Matthew 6:9-10 New International Version

9 “This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name, (What's the Fathers name?)
10 your kingdom come, (What is this Kingdom?)
your will be done, (What is Gods will)
on earth as it is in heaven.

This was when Jesus was on earth about 1,990 years ago. He was teaching the first Christians how to pray.

The Father’s name is Yahweh. Translated: God

The Father’s kingdom is his reign, on earth, and in heaven.

The Father’s will... This is a bit more complicated to answer, because, the Father’s will affects each and every one of us differently. For instance, when his Son was nailed to the cross. The Father’s will was to sacrifice his Son, to prove his love for mankind. The Father’s will is different for each of his children. You and I may not be required to endure such a feat. However, his will is accomplished on earth, and in heaven.
