While no one went to the "Cons" and ran them off directly, such a hostile environment has been fostered that it became impossible for them to be here. In that sense, they were run off, I believe. They certainly feel that way, I've talked to them.

You have an opinion about the "Cons", however the truth is they were as difficult and "mean" as those you accuse. I have debated with them for years and tried to always be kind and respectful, and did make "friendly" with most of them. Because I was not offended by their strong opinions, even when they were mean. I have been where they are and therefore I understand the passion, but when I was honest with myself and studied the scriptures and history, I found that we had never been expose to the "whole" story.
So, if you want to ask questions, just accept folks answers as their opinion and don't get "sensitive", because that just doesn't fly here. We have been where you are, but you likely have not walked in our shoes, nor been were we are.
And BTW, my answers would all be "NO", except for the last one and it would be "YES". Read
1 Tim. 4:10, and you will find a very strong statement of why my answers are as stated.
