In All Fairness.......
 

For months I have read on this forum the insults and false accusations by the members of this forum about the men who left and started another "island" just for them. I am speaking of JP.com.

I think it is COMPLETELY unfair that this is allowed here. They DO NOT allow the same on their forum. If it is said then there is actions taken to put a stop to it. I know this because I am a member and my husband is a moderator there.

The reason they started their own forum is that they wanted a place to go and be able to discuss certain things and not be accused of misrepresentation or ganging up on the "poor saints and aints". They go there and discuss their take on scriptures and standards and many other things. They fight, they get banned, the don't see things eye to eye. But they did not start their forum because they thought that they were better than everyone else. They wanted to be able to do their own thing and have a place to do it.

They don't trash us over there. I think, we being CHRISTians and all, ought to do the same thing. Afford them the same respect that they give us.

And BTW, my hubby didn't put me up to this. The thread that Mark started did... it's getting a little bit old.

And not CP, I don't think it's one bit funny. I think it's rude and unchristian.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Very good post & very right on!

I agree!

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

I believe Mark was just trying to clear CP's name.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

He should have done it in another way. He's got phone numbers. He knows who to call. All this does is cause strife and contention. There's no call for it.

If he has access then use it there and clear it up, don't come over here and start stuff.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

I couldn't agree more. (Might as well give Mark a reason to keep me on his cranky list.. right? :D )

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Do they allow UPC bashing, or bashing of conservative values?

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Does who allow it?

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

JP

Its quite obvious its allowed here.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Most likely be banned before your finger has lifted from the enter key.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

What I found funny was NOT the insults.
What I find funny is that some don't believe Mark reads at JP..........and then he has a thread he about what I wrote over there LOL THAT IS FUNNY!

it's funny how just the mention of the name Mark, gets some all stirred up THAT IS FUNNY.

I will agree with Sis. Coonskiiner that the owner of jp DOES NOT allow AFF to be ripped over there by its members.


JP was started so preachers could go and have a place to talk.
I don't see what was so wrong with that.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Which I appreciated.


Mark cleared my name on the forum. That is much easier than making 30 phone calls and sending 200 PM's, isn't it?

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

huh???
they're joining???

who's starting the welcome thread?

:D

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

They are looking our way ?!?!?!?!

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

whaaaat?

I'm not following you.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Sorry I misunderstood and stand corrected. Thanks for clearing that up.

I agree, I don't understand why people have a bee in their bonnet about preachers having their own forum. They need to have a place where they can talk and discuss ministerial ideas and stands. They don't have to be worried about offending a saint in another church. That's why they have their OWN forum. What they say to one another is one thing, but what they "say" to another saint in another church is another thing altogether.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

True, but don't kid yourself to think it's all that private.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

What's all private?

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Yeah, apparently they have a leak over there.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Even though it's a closed forum that anything written with that many people involved isn't truly "private" - that's all I meant.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Ok. I get it now. Sorry I have a really bad headache, and here I am on the computer, duh!!!!!

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Yes, mam. Especially on the internet!!!!!:christmasjig

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

In all fairness, there will always be a small amount of contention between JP and here. We were all a part of one group, then some left. Hard to ever have a completely clean break.

Things have been said from both sides.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

LCS, I have no control over what people say here about JP forum.
Some people were hurt by the actions that were taken and the reason why they think JP was formed. Many here feel that JPs believe they are better than the people here and view those who left as arrogant. I know that is not the reason why JP was started I'm just telling you that is the peoples perspective who don't understand it.

Anyhow, I'm not allowed to post on JPs. That's fine, but I did want to clear my friend of the false accusations that were being hurled at him on JP. I proobably could have contacted your husband but I honestly didn't think of it at the time. It did not cross my mind.

The rest of that thread was really done in fun even CP got a big kick out of it.

I apologize for upsetting you LCS.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Yes Reverand I did! :christmasjig:christmasjig:christmasjig

I would have commented on it but someone locked the thread here on AFF

We have a seminar today at the church then I have to play for a wedding right afterwards :weightlifter::weightlifter::weightlifter:

I'll be back later today :santathumb

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Wedding?? Congratulations Bro! Where are you honeymooning?:santathumb

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Mark,

It seems you have a flair for the dramatic.

Better? Arrogant? I honestly doubt anyone feels that way.

And, it's my read that no one is hurt over it either. It is what it is. Aff is what it is.

I'm not a minister so I post here and couldn't care less what they talk about on jp.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

I think MANY here could care less what happens at JP, Mark. But some of us understand you can't post there. So you have some friends there that make sure you know some things, and then you can post it here, so you can stir the pot. But you try to act innocent most of the time and get upset when you are called on it. That is why some don't take you seriously when they should, and do when they shouldn't.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

I wonder if it's Tawanda.:christmoose

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

We are not aware of Mark posting anything from JP here. If so, please report.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Post #10.

If I am wrong I apologize to Mark and the forum.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

#10 isn't Mark's post.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

"What I find funny is that some don't believe Mark reads at JP..........and then he has a thread he about what I wrote over there".

I realize Mark didn't post it.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Either way Admin, I will bow out of this thread and subject.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

I thank God I'm more Christian than you all.

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Well hello there ya ol' battle axe....how have you been? I haven't logged on in a while. Hope all is well! :santathumb :christmasjig :christmasfire :christmoose :gift :yo

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

That is very offensive! You should apologize!

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Hey young man, I am fine thanks. How are things with you?:yo

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Nah, we are cool. But thanks, Ron.:)

Re: In All Fairness.......
 

Okay.
