Look, I understand all that. I've been told this several times and I get it. I'm just simply saying that when I come on here and stand strongly for Acts 2:38 and separation form the world, the mockers seems to come out of the woodwork to laugh, mock, call me a baby, crazy old man, a believer in fairy tales, etc. I find that very disappointing in a place that presents itself as apostolic. I'm just saying, a lot of people here are disappointed the so-called Cons have left. It's really simple why they did. Some of us would like to discuss our values without being made fun of, that's all.

I understand, but it's not going to happen. The faith only need not to obey grace only folks will jump on it like white on rice. On the flip side, can the "libs" go to the "con" forum discussing things without samelike response? I doubt it. It's a fallen human nature thing.

I've discussed my stance on pagan christmass, AI is worldly, santa is idolatry etc... that can bring a heated responses, but I just try to stay on topic without responding to the jabs. TRY that is.

That's a fair request.

From the lib standpoint, we ask for the same thing...but, unfortunately, we hear "Backslidden, charismatic, greasy grace trinitarians" a lot.

It should work both ways.

Is Opie Deuce going to respond to the many answers that he has received? What's the point in starting a thread and putting up a questionnaire if you just ignore all of the responses?
