Discussion and truth is nothing to be afraid of. Responding by leaving isn't really a response and responding by character attacks and attempted coercion isn't a response. Why not just civilly discuss issues without threats and/or character assassination and if agreement isn't reached, so be it.
Remember....
Jer 12:5 If thou hast run with the footmen, and they have wearied thee, then how canst thou contend with horses? and if in the land of peace, wherein thou trustedst, they wearied thee, then how wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan?

If it were a level playing field....possibly.....it is not a level playing field however, because we are constantly referred to as cults/cultic, our beliefs are not respected (yet everybody else demands we accept without question theirs) no matter how many times we state our beliefs and give scripture as to why we believe them, the response is that's not what the scripture means. As you know, we (those that preach/practice/believe in standards) according to more than one on this forum, are now cheats, liars, adulterers, wife swappers, and pedophiles/child abusers. It runs in our DNA and is inherent in our character. I think that makes it a little hard for us to have real discussion. Oh and BTW threats and/or character assassination is not exclusive to those who may see things differently than you.....I have seen/read it from all sides.
