Really, Rico, there is NO "mean and nasty things" being posted there that I can see.

CAF is really a slow moving forum, with mostly doctrinal threads with very little personality injected.

Are you sure you aren't just covering for them, Bro? All you conservative types getting together on a private forum and no bashing of libs, wayward saints, and all that good stuff? Tell the truth, now. Y'all are over there having a field day on them lilly livered liberals, ain't ya?

As the owner/administrator of CAF, I can say unequivocally that there is "no bashing of libs, [OR] wayward saints." Nor are we "having a field day on them lilly livered liberals."

In fact, I don't remember the last time I even READ the WORD "liberal" on the CAF.

I have, however seen MANY references to "ultracons" on this and other forums -- and RARELY is it used in a positive light.

In fact, I believe the whole term "ultracon" was coined as an insult to conservatives. The problem was that conservatives could call a man a "liberal" and he would balk. (I have yet to meet very many "liberals" who would own up the term -- they always call themselves "progressive" or "moderate.") However, when they in turn would call a man a "conservative," he wore the label proudly. So, the liberals had to come up with phrase which would cast a conservative in a bad light. Thus, the "ultracon" was born. It speaks of extremism and radical ideas. It is MEANT to insult.

Mind you, I'm not defending the use of labels (I know someone is going to attack me for that). I'm just explaining.

If ANYONE is "intolerant," it is those on the left towards those on the right. I have honestly seen FAR MORE ATTACKS coming from the left than I have coming from the right. And I run a "right-wing" forum!

Ok. Fire away. I'm ready.

Heheeeee. Did I get your attention? I guess this means you've banned liberals so much the posters aren't even allowed to use the word there? Is that what I'm getting from your post? Also, let's not pretend that the ultra conservatives use the term "liberal" in positive way either.

I always find it amusing when one side accuses the other of being the one doing the bashing. I am conservative on some issues, liberal on others, so I have never really chosen a side to identify with, although I will say that the overwhelming majority of controlling pastors I have found were of the ultra conservative persuasion.

Also, since you are owner/operator of said forum, why is it that the web address never comes up on searches like google? Even though I don't have the desire to post on your site it would still be nice to be able to go over there and read some of the things y'all talk about it. It may surprise you to find out that I enjoy reading good discussions about things pertaining to the Bible.

I know. You guys have your share of getting slammed too. Whatever will we do if we ever learn how to get along with each other? I mean, can you imagine the libs backing the cons, the cons backing the libs, the saints backing the ministry, the ministry backing the saints? Just thinking about all that niceness is starting to turn my stomach.
