Yes, now I did vote thanks for reminding me though. I posed the question because I logged off all Christian/UPC/Apostolic forum activity for the past three months and I now see things from a different perspective.
I still visited some of my business forums and the one thing I have seen is that there is a genuine lack of civility on "Christian" forums. Snide comments, disrespectful replies, and downright hate filled speech is the norm for Pentecostals. When I took a break, I realized that all the negativity was affecting me spiritually because I was starting to believe that the 2% of Apostolics on these chat forums were the norm.
I have come to realize that a computer screen is nowhere near true fellowship. It doesn't even come close to eating a meal together and genuinely loving someone as a brother or sister in Jesus.
When I logged on today to "peek" in I just got that sinking feeling again, like a reformed alcoholic who smells beer in the morning. So the question is a good one, even if does go to page 55, it's something you should think about.
By the way CC1 there is no such thing as interaction with people that doesn't affect you good or bad, think about it. The people you spend time talking with has a HUGE effect on you whether you know it or not. If you don't believe me take a 30-45 day break from all internet discussion. Can't do it? I wonder why?
