If Mooney and the General Board can't get it's facts straight on Emerging Church and can't even accurately define it -

For example:

-PM stating authoritatively in his message that Erwin McManus is from Colombia when he's a native of El Salvador.

- Mark Jordan and the EC committee placing Driscoll in the EC crowd when he has spoken out against Emerging Church

- Mooney's committee linking saved by repentance, casual dress attire and preachers sitting while preaching as Emergent.

then I don't have any trust in his ability to effectively communicate truthfully what is transpiring, nor can I look passed the bias he has in seeking to label and demonize his own brethren and peers in his organization with a politically charged, convenient label.

I too smell a kangaroo court.

And I smell someone who likes to use Dead peoples names instead of coming out & saying who you are?
Who are you?

Hiding behind an anonymous name & making inflamatory statements is worse than anything!

Yeah, I'm sure talking to him like that will really make him own up to his identity.

Inflammatory demonization?

Gee, that sounds like a sermon I heard recently.

Or you!

I just do not think anonymous names were meant for that purpose.

So anything inflammatory posted by people who refuse to reveal themselves is considered Gossip & Innuendo & we all know what the Bible says about that!

I'm glad you don't do that on any of these forums, Brother.

Wether I have or have not is entirely relevant to my statements!
My username is who I am, it is the same name & picture on my Drivers License & my City is listed in my user profile.
One can know my name & my Church & if you like my Pastor & his phone # if you like.

I will stand behind my statements & not hide any accusations behind anonymous user names!

That is the point!

Ron, seriously.

Some HAVE to post anonymously for a reason. You can't discredit what they have to say because of that. You have become very intolerant.

For the same reason others need to keep some meetings secret.

Renda, all I am intolerant of is this, I respect peoples right to disagree but I think it is a little sneaky to put it mildly that people would use an anonymous
user name to make accusations against people in particular men of God about thier motives & or try to interpret what or why they are saying it.

Same could be said of posting things from another forum in contravention of it's rules & then slap your hands together & say you did no wrong.

Sorry, I don't think that it is what it was intended for at all.
