AFF is like...

I just had an amusing thought and thought I would share...

Lurking at AFF is kinda like looking in the backyard of Apostolia, when they have invited their friends over for a barbecue.

Lurking at (insert acronym for preachers forum here) is more like looking in the bedroom of Apostolia...

Thoughts/Comments?

Re: AFF is like...

We envisioned it to be like looking into the fellowship hall at a church - where all types of people gathered together, talking about whatever in their own little groups.

If that is indicative of their "bedrooms", I shutter.

I think you guys have hit the mark... as long as the Fellowship Hall is full of different types of people (like you would find at a Wedding or Anniversary party, etc.)... that was more of a jab at the preacher's forums. lol.

The problem is what's talked about in their bedrooms should just be between two people - - not others. I do see your point. I think some underestimate the "privacy" of their forums or the confidentiality of their posters.

And of course, I'm not actually in the backyard or the bedroom, I'm just peeking over the fence or peering through the curtains (shudder) fascinated by a game I don't understand and don't want to play, yet can't get enough of how the ones playing it are so fascinated with it.

Re: AFF is like...

I was in that proverbial bedroom, brushing shoulders with the others for 10 years. I never want to be in that bedroom again. I know all the "tricks". (No pun intended.)

Yes we do! In fact, I am about to head out to drive to Toledo to meet with a friend from long-ago. It's a 1/2 hour drive. That gives me lots of time to pray for many of my friends here on AFF - including you, my sweet sister!
