Theres nothing wrong with this being a open forum, even ex-apostolics or burned out christians have a fair say as much as anyone. That's why this board is growing and interesting while other boards like CAF and JP are exclusive and fairly boring (since they ban anyone who doesnt fit in their box)
I did not say he should be banned. Only that is has not happened. Nor did I define who should be on the board. The admins did that in the below quote when they said it was for those who held "Apostolic" faith. And again, I can ignore him a lot easier than I can the my-way-is-the-only-way-everyone-else-is-going-to-hell types who have lingered here.
"At AFF our intention is to recognize and allow all viewpoints that exist within the "Apostolic" genre. We recognize that Apostolic includes faith in Jesus Christ, a Oneness view of the Godhead, baptism in Jesus name, and the experience of the baptism of the Holy Spirit with tongues."

Timmy...well he is at church...so the press conference has been put off...please call me when it starts...

I (and my beliefs) can be shoehorned into a little black box quite nicely. Thank you!
The crowd waits... reporters are murmering amongst each other - some impatient some squabbling...

I am a firm believer in the Old Paths
Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945

Additionally to the above quoted inclusiveness, apparently anyone who is merely willing to discuss any of the above items is also welcome, because (pending the Press Conference) Timmy would not claim to "believe in" any of the above. The contrary, each one of his posts contains a small spam pointing to his Ex-Pentecostal website, which if casually browsed, reads more like an anti-Pentecostal website, IMO. To wit, the most prominent, popular topic heading over there is, "Pentecostalism and Insanity" with no TIC about it.
Apparently if a guy is an "enemy of the gospel" but manages to exhibit humor, affability, and citizenship, that results in effect a free pass welcome, and a dozen Happy Birthdays. A muslim who really believes something about his god would instead get smacked around.

Yep. Sounds good to me. As long as said person is polite, fair and respectful -- which of course gives him a leg up over many of the "confirmed" Christians on the forum.
... plus, I don't really buy everything Timmy claims to believe (or not believe)... Pot Stirrer is a big responsibility, and sometimes he just really has to sell it with his outlandish claims...

Sorry, but I may put this on hold for a while. Kinda down, right now. Wife's sister is in the hospital, outlook very grim. I won't be put out, if anyone wants to pray for her.
