instead of holiness police how about aquaintances that are nosy troublemakers trying to draw attention away from what they just got caught doing ? at which point they would cease to be even an aquaintance.

Oh, I don't know... I have found it pretty easy to predict people. First, look at who they admire, then look at who they consider their mentor; then look at where they get their spiritual inspiration.... then you can pretty well predict how they will respond.

How truly frightening it must be to live in a siege “hold the fort” mentality, sitting around wondering who will be the next to be picked off.
How sad to reduce the concept to Holiness before God to compliance with a rulebook based on 50 year old North American “distinctives”.
Lord forgive them and grant them peace and a true understanding of Your love and holiness, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen"

Truly sad I have had three pastors PM me that this has happened to them as well, from people they thought were friends.

Re: The Latest from the "Holiness Police"
It is obvious inappropriateness is extremely subjective. To have the God Squad looking trouble is more disturbing than the "inappropriateness".

Well, on the thread where I posted several of our vacation pics I did mention that I was very careful in what I selected and heavily edited (cropped) a few others.
The link I gave in THIS thread had ample warning!
Makes me wish I could publish an application on this board where I posted a link that said "Warning! Do not click here! Porn! Porn! Porn!", and then post the names of the people, in real time, as they clicked on it for all to see with big letters that said GOTCHYA!. LOL
By the way, the link I posted was NOT porn, but a reference to the subject of the thread. An example of pics that an UC would see who tried to befriend me on Facebook (for the purpose of getting dirt).
