Re: Suggestion

It's amazing to see people coming out of the woodwork for this thread... If you would actually post sometimes, there would be some interesting discussions.

It seems to be that some believe that certain debates should be off the table - while others believe that everything is worth debating. I think many people (myself included) will play devil's advocate (skip the easy joke here please) in order to better understand why we believe the things we do. The points I argue are not always indicative of where I stand. Some are, and some are hypothetical.

I attend a UPC church. We believe in repentence, baptism in Jesus name (22 last Sunday), and receiving the Holy Ghost with evidence of speaking with other tongues. I realize that alone isn't enough my many's standards, but I am apostolic. And in my opinion, everything worth believing is worth questioning.

There are great people on this forum. I don't agree with all of them, but I enjoy the conversation. If you are so easily derailed by the conversations then why not go find a "pat me on the back" style forum where everyone can tell each other how great they are. I guess I don't get. If you don't like it - why stick around?
