Re: Forum History!
Yeah I agree with you Tracy.
Only I'd like to keep it peaceful, wouldn't you? I like living harmoniously(as a Christian), next to other people on these forums such as non-Christians. I'm tired of pointing out and defending my position. If someone has legitimate questions about Christianity or my views I certaintly don't mind doing my best to answer them.
The only thing I(maybe others too) get a little tired of is constantly defending our beliefs or when "inquisitive minds" start to attack, (that is how I perceived some of wizard's messages)
Take for example the first message he posted in the
Christianity Forum ....
"Hey, I know how you can take America back. Find those who don't believe that same thing as you and burn them at the stake.
It worked in Europe, I'm sure you guys can make it work here too... ;-)" --Wizard's Evil Twin (I'm sure they are related)
This was in response to a theory on how Christians may like to Change America. I didn't think it warranted such a response as wizard's. We(Christians) were not aiming it at anyone or trying to convert people, it was really for inquisitive Christians??? Not to hurt or belittle. Yet, we got a response like we were trying to do precisely that.
We don't want to "burn people at the stake" neither do we want to do tell people they are going to hell. I am particularily sorry that we miscommunicated and came across that way in the "beginning". That is not what I am like, nor most other Christians....(I do understand there are always a few bad grapes in every batch ;) unfortunately)
Lets use these forums in peace, just like there can be peaceful demonstrations, we can express our views peacefully. Don't you agree?
