There is a female here as well but I never got the name she uses here although she did admit to liking the interaction she found on AFF at times. And even Coonskinner was paid a compliment over there on the expentecostal forum!

Maybe it's just me, but sheltiedad seemed kind of transparent about where he was coming from. He had been burned in an OP environment a long time ago and was an open skeptic about things.

Timmy was more opaque but I don't think anyone believed he was a professing OP. These two guys seemed to be more interested in stirring the pot. There were others that snickered about the posts and the replies.

The AFF poster Cupcake was also "indicted." But her politics were so incredibly leftist and her general tone on AFF was so bitter that I don't think anyone took her for anything other than what she appeared to be.

Coon was complimented and AFF in general was complimented. The "openess" of this forum and the give and take that goes on was praised.

I don't know that it's fair to say the "ex-PC" forum created the shooter. Psychologists have been debating what creates those types for centuries. The shooter's posts were condemened for being very bitter and there were attempts to reach out to the guy. When the posts became threatening the authorities were notified.

In fact, as the investigation was just starting there were news reports that there "may be a link" between the two shootings and it seemed like the cops were following up on that angle from the start. The reason the cops had for suspecting a link seems to have been the info provided by the "ex-PC" forum.

I agree, SD was open. But the impression I got from reading the other sites posts is that they were here to undermine what we believe and catch the weak and struggling out.

Deuteronomy 25:17-18 Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way, when ye were come forth out of Egypt; How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, even all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God

Stirring the pot was their reason for being here but hopefully they learned not to classify all OP's into a lump.

True.

Don't forget Daniel A. and Michlow got kudos as well.

I didn't say they created a shooter! Neither did I say they encouraged the shooter to commit crimes. Nor am I saying they are 'bad' people. I am saying that they came here with an underhanded agenda. I feel sorry for them and their inability to get past their bad experiences with some pentecostals.

I don't really plan on posting further, defending myself or apologizing... I will just say I never lied and was one of the first ones to speak up on several occassions that I was a member at both sites... in fact, I found the original FCF through that site. Between various incarnations of FCF, NFCF and AFF, I have accumulated well over 4000 posts total between those forums while having somewhere around 600 total over 5 years on the ex-pentecostal site.

I still have not even seen the PRIVATE posts from those forums which were posted here, I have only heard about them... so I am not even sure what to apologize for... I'm sure I've written worse than whatever the dishonest person (from here) who was digging for stuff posted over here... but I imagine they are not much different than the manner in which I posted here, except it being a private forum, I could name names... and I believe posts where I was laughing about my ban being revoked after only a few hours were listed here too from what I heard. Some of the posts that I was quoted were posts that I posted directly on this forum and not just in the private forum over there.

I had already pretty much decided to stop posting when several people blamed the members of the ex-pen site for the Colorado shooter... I could use the same logic to blame this site for Nathan robbing the bank.... or blame Christianity as a whole for abortion clinic bombings, but I won't. That logic just makes me sick and I see no further sense in having anything to do with these forums... which is a shame since it was pretty much my only interaction with pentecostals except at family gatherings.

So, that's where I am... and where I went.

I have never lied here about who I am... although I have downplayed the intense dislike I have towards the Apostolic culture... but if that wasn't already transparent, then... I don't know what to tell you. The only alt I have here is Don Quixote, which I created as a joke... you will not find me posting under any other name here. I have no reason to hide behind alternate screen names.

Haven't read through this thread, but answering the initial question that started the thread quickly here in fewer words than the questions probably deserve but oh well .......

Wisdom is found in seeking after God, understanding His will and His ways and obeying the commands, precepts and living according to the principles set forthe in Scripture. We can have it (wisdom) if we are lacking and if we ask for it.

Self-seeking and going after what satisfies flesh results in the opposite of wisdom - namely foolishness and folly - and will lead to destruction.

So many stop right therre and stdy the word no further for themselves.
We have among us some of the most biblically ignorant people in the world.

Before you all shoot me, we do have some among us who have studied the word in depth.

For instance, Unregistered one of the most studious posters among us. Always right on topic. Always the right answer. Unregistered is the the greatest all time smartest poster on this forum.

Clever, clever. You had me.
