>>>Why? Because God is literally in everything. He is always there. The rocks do not move because God commanded them to hold fast. The water comes no closer to the shore than it does because God commanded it to hold fast. Each person was knit together in their mother's womb by God, who knew that person before He did this. And we are told in scripture that Jesus "Stands at the door and knocks, and he who opens the door, Jesus will come in and sup with them, and they with He." And there is the fundamental aspect of God speaking the universe into existence, that there are no Maverick molecules anywhere, but that all do exactly as He commanded.

>>>God is in everyone and everything most definitely. :-)

>>But you still need a source of information, otherwise it's just a matter of speculation. How do you know that Jesus said those words that you quoted?
>>What I am trying to say is, that the Bible is the only source of teaching that we can rely upon, everything else is just opinion or speculation. And coming back to the original issue, the Bible is in fact very discriminatory, this is a fundamental part of the Christian faith, to discriminate between right and wrong. Protagoras said "Man is the measure of all things." But the Bible says that God himself is the measure of all things. Man prefers to have a low standard, so he can lift himself up without too much force and proclaim how good he is.

Obviously with "Discriminate between" I meant the former, the latter would be "Discriminate for or against". So I mean it is a fundamental part of the Christian faith "to discriminate between right and wrong" (which I said), and not "To discriminate against certain people". If someone stands for an action that would fit the "wrong" part of the first, either individually or as a group, then that person becomes subject to the discrimination of the former. But not because of the fact that this person belongs to a certain group, but for the fact that this person and/or group represents or stands for that issue in question.
The original statement of that lady "We do not discriminate" is a nonsense meaningless statement that can mean anything or nothing. I am sure that lady discriminates against people that are part of a group that discriminates gay people.
