As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions. One person believes he may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him. Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand. One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. ...
You don't understand the appeal of Benedict Cumberbatch / think he's fug / don't know who he is? WATCH SHERLOCK. Until you do, your negative opinion of him will not be taken seriously.
Another epic example of "God's love" at the hands of his people. Wheeee...
It is pretty shameful.
i wish i could be joking but my dad is the music teacher at a church so he owuld be mad. we had sex, all the time how bad i know but we dont want to wait and he said GREAT OH KAY! and I was really feeling the wets? down there- too embarsed to say- but he acted like man.
I am a christian and also pro-life, but you sicken me. Absolutely sicken me and to think that you used our loving God as a tool for your evil. It actually makes me sick to my stomach.
No, you did not do the right thing. What is wrong with you that you would even think that ? Are you deranged ? Seriously, I am at a loss over what you said to her.
Since you are all about people meeting their maker, well you will do the same thing. One day, you will have to answer to Him for your own behavior as well. This was absolutely none of your business, none.
I pray this poor woman has the strength to report you to HR and you lose your job over this.
1) you should be fired for your grossly unprofessional behavior
2) she didn't ask your opinion, she didn't tell you her business
3) she could sleep with the entire free world and it remains NOYB
4) you know what the bible says about people like you, right? you think she earned a one way ticket to hell? you just purchased yourself an express ticket.
5) you are out of your mind crazy.

I am a total lurker here, but I had to say something to this. You took a deeply personal choice and made it all about YOU--your thoughts, your feelings, your beliefs, none of which had any relevance to anyone but yourself. It was self-centered and juvenile and outright cruel. Since you asked, my thought is that you should be deeply ashamed of yourself.
Lurker chiming in late, but your post makes me absolutely sick. I work at a Christian pregnancy resource center and I counsel a lot of women in crisis pregnancy situations who are considering or planning abortions. I am a strong Christian and am totally pro-life, but I would never in a million years tell someone to burn in hell or attack them for their decision. I'd especially never emotionally manipulate them into making the decision I thought was right for them. If I said any of the things you said to her to a client, I'd lose my job. My job, and your job as a friend (if your friend had brought the matter to your attention), is to hash out the options and consequences of each and to stand by that person no matter what.
If your friend had come to you struggling with her decision, I'd say you could have offered her alternatives and provided as much support as possible no matter what she decided. However, she didn't come to you, and you did betray the confidence of your almost equally crappy mutual friend.

Dude, ditto this. WTF is your problem?
I am so glad your god came down from the clouds and dubbed you Queen Judger and Jury.
You are a rude, self-righteous, nosy assshole, a gossip, and an awful "friend."
Words to live by:
"Believe nothing of what you hear and only half of what you see."
It is pretty shameful.
Wow, just wow.

You sound like a complete jerk. And an illiterate one at that.
What she does is none of your business, and your ridiculous "beliefs" have nothing to do with her.
This! This is why I have such high respect for our lovely christian friends.
