However, when someone comes on saying that THEY have personal knowledge -and then proceed to tell us how they have PROOF but then continually refuse to provide it, then I have a real problem with that.
I think it also extends further into anti-organizational bashing of any stripe. That goes beyond sound debate, scriptural exegesis, etc. JMO....

I'll have to think about that, although, I'm sure public knowledge appears to be acceptable - I just wonder why we would feel comfortable doing that on an open board. That still has the feel of "a busybody in other men's matters".

That might be a good place to start. I didn't learn anything in-depth concerning the scriptures on that one. I did learn a "catty" word picture though.

But, that's because it bothers you personally.

What about someone that likes Obama. They support him and are proud that he's their president. There have been many catty things said about him over and over.

That's what I mean.

Good point as it comes down to every man's own words OR it's permissible unless we can be sued for it.

Wait, unfair for my name to me next to that quote since I was quoting another poster that I had taken issue with!

I have corrected that - sorry about that.

The quote didn't have a name to it and I thought it was only right to add that. I looked it up and saw your name, but you are so correct you had quoted Rhoni. I changed it.

I don't understand your post, GP. You mentioned - " Many of people are hear asking questions and participating in "iron sharpening" which often presumes the form of a debate."

I thought it was a good post to ask what was on my mind about being a busybody. Did you feel convicted or something? J/K!!!!
