Ross, I respect your position here as the moderator, just as I would hope that you would respect my position as the moderator of the EDGE_ONLINE echo. I will abide by your rules, but I do have a few questions and comments for you. They are not meant to be a challenge to your authority here. I am simply trying to understand how your mind works: 1. You stated the following: RC> F. Non-Christians do not need to be made to feel any less of a RC> believer because they do not practice your religion. Then why do you allow certain Jews in this echo to try to make other people feel less with their proud boasts of being the "chosen ones", as if they are better than everyone else here? 2. You also stated: RC> H. All walks of life, or all of above, are expected to respect the RC> other, regardless of belief or non-belief. So when Mimi G. outright mocks the Bible by stating that John the Revelator was on drugs, and simply saw hallucinations, is she also not breaking your rules? Are you also going to call her out on it publicly as you have done with me? More specifically, she stated "The "end times" is only John of Patmos' LSD or silicibin (sp?) hallucinations." 3. You also stated: RC> I do not want you giving religious testimony, sermons or quoting scripture RC> in this echo, sometimes just telling people you are a believer is all you RC> have to say. Roy Witt quoted from the Book of Leviticus in order to show how the Bible condemns homosexuality. Are you also going to call him out publicly on this? Or am I again the only one who is being singled out? 4. Where, in any of my messages in this echo, have I even remotely tried to force anyone to believe as I do? Sharing my personal opinions about my faith is forcing no one to believe anything. Others here have discussed their faith as well. 5. Where, in any of my messages in this echo, have I damned anyone to hell if they don't accept Jesus Christ as I have? Now THAT would be preaching, in my view, but I haven't done it. If you think that I have, please provide some specific examples. Ross, based on the above, I have a difficult time accepting that you are being impartial in your judgments; nevertheless, it is your echo, so if I do continue to post here, I will abide by your echo rules. I would appreciate some clarifications on the above issues, however. Thanks!
