no need to apologize !

Hello,
I am sorry that some people on this board misunderstood your intentions.

I agree with you on your points about trying to keep things simpler, so unbelivers can understand what we are talking about. Perhaps, when using some Christian words & concepts, it would help to have a have some clarification. As long as basic theology, doctrine are not compromised in the process, we need to do it (keeping in mind the unbelivers or seekers). When we explain out faith to children, we don't want to flood them with intimidating words, but we explain everything. On the other hand, we can't go too far too (this is probably for another topic) and water down the Word (like the Message Bible, and other Bible Translations do).

Maybe a good idea would be, to have a page on 'curezone' that explains basic doctrines in a plain language, or have a link to great websites such as http://www.carm.org or http://www.livingwaters.com, etc.
That way, is someone doesn't get it, they can go and read it on their own.
