What Is Your Opinion of AFF Posters?

I'm not necessarily asking what you think of me as a poster; what opinion have you drawn about me since I started posting on AFF. I might not want to know!!!

I am admitting that as a newbie on AFF, I have quickly drawn opinions of some of those on this forum, and then a few post later think, "boy, I must have been wrong about that person."

I guess what I'm asking is , "Are we too quick to judge and draw opinions of others without knowing them?"

How do I get to honestly know each of you?

Is what you post really you?

Can we consider this even beyond AFF. Are we too quick to judge others in our daily lives?

Just Been Thinkin

Re: What Is Your Opinion of AFF Posters?

What I post is really me.

I have enjoyed the volleys of ideas that we have taken part in on AFF. I think your moniker serves you. You appear to be one who is open to learn as well as share what you know.

I think that many do judge too quickly. People often judge so quickly that they don't even get a full grasp on what people are saying before they leap off and attack them. But hopefully this is in the minority.

I don't know if that is what you were looking for... but there it is anyway.

  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Re: What Is Your Opinion of AFF Posters?

Someone told me something about a certain "other AFF poster" that I found interesting. They said "He/she is not really like they seem to be on AFF". I try to be just like the real me on AFF, and when I am not being the real me on AFF, I try to be the real me in real life. In other words, I'm just as boring in real life as I am on AFF.

As far as my opinion of other AFF posters. My opinion is that all AFF posters are some of the finest people I have met or have interacted with on the internet. Except for those that aren't.

Re: What Is Your Opinion of AFF Posters?

I'm exactly the same, except that this topic is only about 1% of who I am, and I have very strong views about it, so you are seeing a slice of 1% of my personality, 90% of the time when I am here.

The other 99% of me tries to never have any discussions about church or religion ever... I do it all here.... so the people who interact with me other than here never see the attitude that I display here because we aren't talking about religion...

However I thought of something today... me coming here and not liking religion is kinda like a guy who doesn't like sports going onto a football forum and talking bad about football (even though my dad plays. lol). All the more reason for me to just do hit and run postings... most people don't even remember me anyway it has been so long since I posted regularly with the id's I used to use.
