That clarify things?
Nope.

The favouritism is seen by all on each opposing side.

If you're a lib, you think the cons are being favoured.

If you're a con, you think the libs are being favoured.

We can't win!

Thank you MRS!

This is the point I've been trying to make all along.

Somehow, this thread has devolved from a simple question right back to the us vs. them we saw on the stepper thread.

Is this how every thread is going to be from now on? If so, no wonder good posters are leaving.

Re: Forum is Ex-Pentecostal??

Ron,


I agree with you that most of the admin and owners side or agree with the far left liberal side. They espouse the same ideology so naturally it's what it is.. BUT i will say this, the difference is, they allow the far right to say whatever they want too and for this I can appreciate and respect. The far right wont allow the left libs to even come near their closed cloistered communities and that speaks vloumes to me. The Right wing says that the left is disrespectful but come on, let's be honest, that has always worked both ways.
So, I feel the admin. are fair in that way the only complaint I have is, most of them have a sour disposition

Wow, excellent post, Sir Marcus!

Can you believe it - even Cranky Man is agreeing with you on this one!

A little loopy maybe, but not sour!

Re: Forum is Ex-Pentecostal??

Also, Ron to your point.

When this occurred there were TWO bannings - that showed NO FAVORITISM.

I wasn't at all alluding to any bannings.

I was only referring to some of the points PP was mentioning.
I and others see it as well.

I and others see it a bit differently, Ron.

Which proves my point.

Perception is greater than reality, because it IS reality.

So, it appears we're on the horns of a dilemma.
