Just one example of someone automatically assuming nothing was done. :(

*sigh*

We don't respond to every report, we just take any action necessary and let it go.

Elizabeth, Tina, Renda, first off, I apoligize if you are taking this as a slam.
I understand a little bit of what it is like to be an Admin with your own lives.
There are also 5-6 Admin & mo one Admin can make a decision without the others in agreement-I get that.

I think what Elder Epley & myself & a few others are doing is just posting our observations on the flow of the forum.

There is a tremendous diversity of posters here with various viewpoints & various topics to be discussed (not all religious based either) & that is fine.

It is the threads that deal with the "Core" beliefs of One God, Jesus Name Water Baptism" "Eternal Salvation" & "Eternal Damnation" of the sinner being questioned that just gets posters wondering about where the forum stands.
A lot of these questions were settled when I was a new convert & yes I studied them for myself so these are my revelation of his word to me not just someone teaching me.

I think Bro Epley was just posting his observations & not calling any one out in particular.

Why is this important to some of us?

I am not going anyplace where the foundational truths of God's word are constantly called into question, why should/would I feel welcome?

Even my family who do not attend Church affords me that respect.

Just my observations.

Ron, I understand.

My beliefs are questioned all the time here and I'm told I'm going to hell in a hand basket. I know my relationship with God, and don't have any feeling at all that I should leave when I read those posts. I just take them as someone else's opinions.

I guess I just don't understand why this has to come up every few months.

We want everyone to feel welcome here and to be able to discuss anything they feel important enough to discuss.

It is not really possible to "tear down" a foundation of truth. Not in the sense that it buckles under such an attack. If I have questioned it, picked at it, given opinions to the contrary of it, who cares? You guys know I'm wrong!

If, on the other hand, some of the things I've said kinda make you go "Hmmmm, is it possible he has a point, there?", well, what's wrong with that? Maybe some of the things you guys believe are, in fact, flawed. And if they are, why not fix them? But I would think that the ones who are most secure in their beliefs would be unlikely to get bent out of shape about AFF "allowing" such dissenting voices on here. Anyway, what fun would it be if everyone agreed on everything? (That's not to say that without me, everyone would! :lol)

Gotta say... GOOD points from the resident troublemaker!!

Seriously, I don't think it's you that the good Bro. Epley is annoyed with.

And if you were to quit posting, I'd probably quit too....

(shhhhhh... don't tell them they can kill two birds with one stone!!!)
