We might better start another thread!!
Did you know I was the Literary Editor of our school newspaper? One of my articles was giving out the worst insults. The only one I remember is: Her mouth was so big she could sing duets by herself while eating a banana sideways!!!
I would love to be very specific and call out names of actual known personalities and situations.
That would be at the expense of me having to leave AFF.
So sometimes one has to be general.
But for the most part I understand when others make these type of statements it does not mean every minister, saint etc in any church or group.
I appreciate your take on my group of statements and responses today.
Neck, I've never been one to argue that everybody in any group of people are going to be perfect or even good. My point is that I can produce an equally impressive list of people for whom taking the stands that they have taken has absolutely not produced a comfort zone and that this "comfort zone" is not their motivation. I know many people who would actually be much more "comfortable" (in a purely financial or physical sense) if they did leave the organization and it's doctrinal stance. I just get uneasy about overly sweeping criticisms.
One would make the argument that those who stay are doing so in defense of their comfort zone, and another would argue that those who leave are in search of a temporal comfort zone by virtue of acquiescing to the level of mainstream Christendom. Either way, I think that the sweeping generalities are innaccurate.
