I posted with most of them and they told me I was a backsliding whiner all the time. That was mostly while my husband and I were still pastoring. It encouraged me to leave.

It's not that they don't see eye to eye with me. Nice attempt at demonizing though.

And yes, a very vocal and numerically significant group of posters do nothing but swipe at every Oneness and Pentecostal tenant under the sun.

Wow! Your connection must not have been very strong.

Don't twist my words. I said encouraged. That's a far cry from made.

You know what, you're right!!! Why in the world should we righteous folks have any interaction with those infidels!!! In fact, they have no right to be in our society. Let's just get rid of them all!!!

lol - - too funny! So THAT is too broad of a brush, but your statements aren't?

Now, you know how most of us feel. We don't fit your idea of what AFF has become.

Re: Has AFF been FEMINIZED?

There is only one agnostic on the forum as far as I know, and he's always civil. I enjoy his contributions (usually) because they make me think, and make me clarify my own beliefs in my head. It makes me a better witness overall.... if I encounter his viewpoints out there in the big, wide world, I'll have already thought through the issue and have a better answer ready.
