You speak as though there were no "objective Truth"
Lance and to me it appears as though this is where
you live. Not so for me and others. We may
be the minority but then just because your opinion a majority
or
ecumenical one; this is hardly a recommendation - is it??
I disagree. DH has chosen The Mormon religion. To
insult his religion is akin to the "cartoon incident' re: the Muslims.
If John Lennon were to have been my brother then,
I'd most assuredly receive that as an personal insult.
cd: Maybe to John
Calvin but not towards you-see the difference?If the truth insults then that
person needs to change not the truth. If I were to say that John Lennon was
a pig-that is acceptable as I am not making a personal attack on you.But if
I were to insult you by calling you names then I have personally attacked
you and would be in error to do so Lance. If I were to say to DavH : Mormons
are stupid I have not attacked DavH but rather my attack was on the teaching
of Mormonism. In short-express your self but don't let it get
personal.
IFO took your, and Judy's, evaluation of John
Calvin to be nothing short of an insult. However, should you 'rule' on
this matter thus eliminating your/my assessment to be off limits then, we
would have no ongoing dialogue.
By the way, wasn't there some kind of mystery
'rule' about not responding to posts with the above subject
heading?
No-there isn't any "new rule".
This is the same rule Perry enforced. If I make the call that someone has
broken the Ad. Hom. rule- that protects others from verbal assaults- then
reply to that in private. If I did not enforce this then the issue of
that person wrongs will become part of the debate and become unsolvable as
others got involved.-this is for you protection as well as others. The
non-enforcing of some past Moderators has lead to many good minds leaving
this site.If these attacks continue Lance it will only be a couple of
people here and how long can two /three people carry on the same
conversation?

You spoke my question
"G"?????????
Moderator-This simply means that the
rules against insults and personal attacks are going to be unforced by
me-others are under my protection and will get fair treatment-I owe
that to God not to those who will not keep their agreement and abide
by the rules.
