Re: Welcome Azzan Thread

"Christians" who tolerate homosexuality, without warning those involved of the eternal consequences attached to their behavior, are "holding the truth in unrighteousness."

I think that statement is pretty clear.

We've had gay members here before, back when there were a lot of conservative members as well. A couple of them were allowed to stay. I do remember one in particular who was quickly banned because he started spouting blatant support for his lifestyle. The point being, it's the behavior that matters. I didn't know that the AFF (or the FCF/NFCF for that matter) was supposed to ban people for being sinners.

That's news to me.
I'm not asking for anyone to be banned. I'm simply commenting on the weird, disgusting, and approving manner in which homosexuality is discussed on this forum.

Re: Welcome Azzan Thread

Well, there's never been an agenda. I didn't start AFF - - it morphed from FCF. If there was ever an agenda, it was Jim Yohe's and I would say my feelings aligned with his.

I'm gone as an owner and admin here - - since I'm such a demonizing, marginalizing and hypothesizing person, maybe the ship can be turned more toward the center.

I don't "tolerate" homosexuality, Charnock, by having a conversation with a homosexual on an internet forum. If that's all it takes for YOU to "tolerate" homosexuality, then your convictions work differently than mine. I'm not that easily swayed.

I doubt it.

AFF is a church denomination in and of itself.

It is.

You are assigning thoughts and feelings to me which are 100% incorrect.

AFF has become so accustomed to ONE view on most things that any divergent view (especially if it's Bible-based) is anathema.

Well, then, why don't you make that CLEAR for all the former members who have been lurking on this thread - that YOU are not attacking or criticizing the new poster, Azzan, but RATHER the posters who don't like conservative posts?

At this point, it sounds like you (and others) are simply campaigning to have Azzan banned. If you have another goal in mind, perhaps you should clarify.

So you're fine with Azzan staying and posting?

So, you want us all to live to the lowest common denominator? That's a horrible existence.
