So you're lightly salted and that's why you joined?

Well all I can say is... you knew what you were getting into. 
All kidding aside... welcome. And I hope you enjoy yourself here. I look forward to fruitful conversations and friendly interactions.

Ex-apostolic. I guess I thought that was obvious.

Not really. Being not something does not tell me what you currently are.
For example if I asked "what football team do you like" and you replied "well Im an x-redskins fan" does not answer the question of what football team do you like :-)
Baptist? trinitarian? Methodist?

Robby, just remember this: It isn't a sin to be annoying. 
Also, family members don't always agree with one another. At least, that's how it is in our house. We still love each other, though.

I have a life! I'm not Apostolic. But I try to be friendly. I happen to have befriended a few people who post here.

Re: Apostolic? Friends?:-)
Salt does cause irritation. Sometimes the light is to bright. From all appearances being a member of this forum qualifies one to say anything about anyone. All under the guise of "truth". Don't misunderstand, I love truth. Still in all, just being a member of this forum does not give us a monopoly on truth or the right to offend.
