Thanks for that clarification!

Good night. I've GOT to go.

So can someone provide the actual quotes to verify the blog misquoted the posts or took them out of context? Are you saying for a FACT that the blog changed the quotes?

Are you saying that the quotes in quotations on the blog are inaccurate?

"Misquoted" and "quoted without permission" are not the same thing.

Perhaps someone should inform this family member of the blog so he can call his family and set the record straight, officially.

Miss B - I honestly can't see THAT many posts being misquoted.

All someone has to do is change a word or two, or put initials by them to misquote. Let's face it, we will probably never see the thread in question unedited.

With an editing program it doesn't take very long to do that. I have seen it on another board. It was used for humor, but it still put or took words out of posts, so that it was totally different than the original posts.

I understand that, but the hoopla hasn't been over the misquoting as much as upset that it was taken from their website and posted here for all to see.

I believe all that KP was saying is what the cousin said was taken out of context - - he's not denying what the others said. Matter of fact, he said it was wrong. That's proof enough to me that for the most part the posts are what they are.

I am going to read the blog again. I would be upset too if I had something private taken and posted somewhere else, like a pm for instance.

There is a difference in a PM and statements posted on an open forum, whether it was meant to be private or not.

I guess we could debate this topic all day, but isn't anyone upset about the things that were said????????????????????????????

It's all about the fact that it was supposedly private!

Sounds like a cover up to me. Just my perception.

If we really want to get to the bottom of the situation, someone needs to open up the forum to us so we can read the posts in context, unedited.

I thought the other forum is a closed or private forum. I am upset about all of it. That if these people actually said what they are quoted as saying and that someone brought it here I think just for Sherri to read. Since in her cousin's supposed post he cannot even spell her last name correctly.
I get upset at some things here, but I wouldn't go post any of it on another forum for the intent to start trouble. And I do not post anything here that I don't want anyone else to read. Of course I am not a preacher or pastor so I guess it doesn't matter what I post.

Well, plenty has been said by other CAF members. I need not try to say something new. But, even though PP and a few others will say I am just another CAF member "coming back in droves" to defend blah blah blah, I still feel the need to simply state, Scott Graham is a fine man, a great preacher, and a Man of God--whom I admire, and I have had great benefit from his ministry. The slams were unwarranted. The posting of material from a closed forum is unethical. The whole of the situation is devoid of integrity in terms of giving ones word and then violating what one has agreed to. Somebody needs to repent.
