Liar-liar-liar

Saints and friends it is very uncomely to be calling each other liars. We all become heated at times. I am sure I have stepped over the line at times so I am not holding myself up as THE standard of perfection. Just a thought.

This is true, yet I have seen saints lie here on this forum. I have seen saints handle what others have posted dishonestly. That might make them liars and that might be true, however since name calling tends to be inflammatory that is why it's against the rules to do so.

  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

It's against the rules to have name calling??? Curious .. it happens so often here. Some can name call and it's fine others do it and they have to go to time out. I don't understand these standards.

Admin are not all seeing and all knowing. If you see an inappropriate post, report it.

That being said, there may also be joking between members that know each other well that no one takes seriously.

You say "it happens so often on here".

Please define often. Once? Twice? A dozen times?

As has already been said, if you see a post where someone has called someone else a name, report it.

And your accusation of favoritism against the admins can technically earn you an infraction. Just so you know.

Ok..I do not feel it necessary to quote you a definition of the word "often". You may look it up if you like.
I'm not sure if I am up for the task of "telling on" those I feel are rude and inconsiderate....I think I'll leave that for others to do.
I was in no way meaning to step on the toes of admins. If I did so I apologize. However, if admins. feels I deserve an "infraction" by all means serve me one. I do consider myself warned and I thank you for the correction.
I will try to refrain from speaking my opinion on topics that may place me in this position again.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOODNIGHT!
