Seriosuly, Newman was always an honorable foe.

She could concede when a point had been made, and didn't resort to mockery when she ran low on material.

Does anyone know of persons who do this ???
If so, WHO ????

When I sort of began posting less here, it wasn't any "flouncing off in a huff" or anything, it just got to be less fun.

A dynamic changed that is hard to define. I guess everything has a shelf life to some degree?

i will admit that I did finally get tired of being "stalked" by a gaggle of hyena-like posters who didn't have even a modicum of courtesy, but knew how to rail and mock without ever quite breaking the rules.

I'm not mad at anybody and lurk some, even posting occasionally.

But except on rare occasions when the mood strikes me or a subject interests me, I tend not to get in protracted discussions here.

It has nothing to do with being "scared" of anybody or any debate.

Anyone who hung out at FCF and NFCF knows that is laughable. If I didn't dodge Newman, I sure wouldn't be afraid of most of the current local talent.
I understand completely. While I still enjoy AFF and posting you are correct that things are not the same. The dynamic has changed and it is hard to define. I think FCF and NFCF were special lightning captured in a bottle never to be repeated.

The sad result is that many of the brightest and creative conservatives have moved on to their ministers only forum that they feel more comfortable in and the mods and libs are having to break in a whole new generation of cons and ultra cons!

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

It's not just cons that we've lost - - there are some others that added to the mix that are missing!

Yup. I miss Pastor Tribble. I hope all is well with him.

I also greatly miss Newman's posts. If she doesn't show up more I am going to resign as the President ofthe Newman fan club!

Let's see...today NYLP (a lib masquerading as a con) showed up. Rhymis made his return. Old Paths and Epley are back.

It's like "Old Home Days" around here.
