Very serious. And very disappointed. And you wonder why some of the conservative folks have backed away from here.

Indeed. Not only is He "not pleased" with someone verbally attacking another without cause (as the author claims happened), but neither is He pleased with LIARS!!!!!!!! Whoever copied and distributed the information from this website blatantly lied when they agreed to the terms of service. They stated that they WOULD NOT "share [their] password with someone else." Furthermore, they agreed that publicly sharing a post without the author's permission was an offense which would result in a permanent ban from membership.

Of the seven things which God hates the most, TWO of them involve lying. "These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, a false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren" (Proverbs 6:16-19).

So, to quote the author of the blog, "Indeed, the Lord is NOT pleased."
I find it disappointing that the focus is more on the individual that "lied" and copied the dialog to their blog than what it was all about. The scripture above could be bolded as above and have a completely different focus.

Did the person that copy that do wrong - yes. But, should that really be the focus?

If asked, I believe SG would be more concerned about the posts than the poster that copied them.

I find it interesting that the defenders of these men who spoke against SG speak out of both sides of their mouths.

First, they say they don't condone "Character assassinations". Then they claim the attackers were "misquoted".

Which is it?

Most of the conservatives that were frequent posters here post very little if at all on CAF.
