I stand corrected, to a degree. When people ask questions that to me are just the basics of what being Apostolic is.. I question. I need to realize that we all have different teachings,. and backgrounds, and I need not be so quick to form an opinion. Being the ultra radical conservative that I am.. you guys know I just aint as bright as you all.

You specifically said "oneness". That would imply there are many non-oneness folks here at AFF. That's why I asked.

I think for some folks it is not enoug that a person declare themselves "Oneness".

For them to accept you as such you must join them in full out condemnation of trinitarians, send them to hell because of their view of the godhead, and declare trinitarians polytheistic. Short of all of that you are not REALLY Oneness.

The admin team monitors the forum and can take action when inappropriate posts that violate the rules are posted, trolls come on, etc.

So administrators set the tone or attitude for the forum?

Not at all. You are sadly mistaken if you think being an admin limits an admin to posting warm fuzzies with no meat.

We are expected to post our opinons just as any other poster.

What is important in an admin is the ability to be fair in evaluating when posts cross over a line and break a rule, etc.

Tim, I've read enough of your posts to know what "camp" belong with. That isn't an issue for me. I am sure we will butt heads over some thing eventually. What does that have to do with your comments I questioned?
