Quarreling

      A contentious man will never lack words.
     In quarreling, the truth is always lost.
Publilius Syrus (First Century b.c.)

      Most quarrels are inevitable at the time; incredible afterwards.
E. M. Forster (1879–1970)

      No one damns like a theologian, nor is any quarrel so bitter as a religious quarrel.
Oswald Chambers (1874–1917)

     Once again the ministry of the church will have ceased while we quarrel over the Prince of Peace.
Calvin Miller

     Quarrels are the weapons of the weak.
Jewish Proverb

      I never learn anything talking. I only learn things when I ask questions.
Lou Holtz

      It is not every question that deserves an answer.
Publilius Syrus (First Century b.c.)

      It is not the answer that enlightens, but the question.
Eugène Ionesco (1912– )

      There was a time when I had all the answers. My real growth began when I discovered that the questions to which I had the answers were not the important questions.
Reinhold Niebuhr (1892–1971)

Did you ever read the Christ quarreled? He stated truth and let the truth stand. He quoted Scripture and let it stand. As a Christian all you need to do when it comes to theology is refer to Scripture and leave it at that.

Good point, as a Christian you say what is right not the reason for it being  right. When it comes to morals people know instinctively.
The mother who had an abortion knows, she will argue but what she wants is to justify. What she needs is the gospel.
