>I was not referring to myself, nor am I the only one who has objected to the opinions you have expressed in this thread. What I meant by "elevating your opinions" was using loaded words like "clarify", "explain", and "clear up." (Which I notice you are still doing in at least one new post). In fact you are expressing your personal opinions based on your interpretation of scripture. To state your opinions as fact is condescending and annoying.
Maybe I don't understand the meanings of those word like you do...but...isn't one allowed to clarify, explain and clear-up misunderstanding about his opinions?
What would you call it if your opinion was mischaracterized and you wanted to fix it?
As far as stating my opinions as fact - I try not to do that. I will generally say, "I believe" before stating my beliefs - but - I'm sure I've failed to do that a time or two. To be condescending or annoying is not my intent..
