I don't have time right now to look through all 15 pages of posts, but I'll just say this. IF an internet forum, or people in general, are to blame for causing, in some Con's judgment, people to leave their faith, their faith was in trouble to begin with.
There are ideas, values, and opinions represented on this forum daily that aren't congruent with my personal beliefs, and I haven't changed any of those due to the fact.
I'm not doubting or accepting Mark's position on what other's believe about AFF. However, the belief that somehow people are being turned from their beliefs or caused to lose their convictions because of what's put forward on an internet message board strikes me as silly.
