I don’t think any Water/Sprit believer has been more vocal in defending the right of PCI type believers to discuss/defend their beliefs on AFF than myself. I have gone to bat and taken considerable heat from other W/S people (including admin) several times for defending guys who got banned for what I felt were unjust reasons. I continue to do that, however, over the last couple of months there has been a shift from the typical give and take to something else by a handful of posters.
Terms like “Mormon” and “Papist” are getting tossed around like pizza dough. THAT is not part of the give and take that make this place work. It needs to stop. I know this thing goes both ways. Some time back it seemed some of the W/S guys were being a bit over the top and it had to be toned down. Well, in the typical give and take of humanity the pendulum has swung and here we are. No biggie. Lets just get back on track.
That fixes part of the problem. The other part of the problem however, will be a little more difficult.
Some of our conservative brothers have left this place because it isn’t exactly safe to be a conservative in public these days. Its kind of like being a deer with horns from November to January, Having a good set of horns means something but it can also get you shot. I suspect the only cure for this part of the problem is time. Peace my conservative friends. Take cover and come back after hunting season!
