Old Paths it would not concern me that some would not think you are NOT a Christian but it would concern me if they did think you was a Christian since most Christians they laud do not believe the truth? Go figure that.

But haven't posts been copied from other forums before and printed here and there was never a problem? I think so.

How come there's a problem now? Is it because the forum they were copied from is a "private" forum?

I hope they clear this question because it leaves one to wonder if the problem has more to do with where the "copy" came from as opposed to the act of copying itself. Meaning, "If you copy from anywhere but a forum ran by priveleged UC members it's ok...but if you copy from the ranks of the conservatives, you get the hammer." I don't personally see the problem with this poster as beng with a "copy" from another forum, the problem seems to be the apparent criticism of some conservative preachers and their character attached to those copies.

I have noticed throughout my interaction on these forums that if a preacher is "liberal" you can name him, criticize him, call him lost, say he's a heretic, lamblast his reputation, and on and on....but you'd better not ever name or criticize a conservative, call him lost, say he's preaching false things, question his character, or speak negitively at all or you are hammerd by libs and cons alike....

The issue seem to be that if a man is conservative we need to respect his beliefs, but if a man is not, he chose to open himself up to critism...so he gets what he deserves. I faced this attitude for years as a member of the sect...I left because the word, "fellowship" on the membership card was too conditional to be true....

Well I really don't care much about whether they're UC or liberal or what have you.

It just occurred to me that suddenly there's an issue with transference of posts from one forum to another when I don't think there was before.

The guy logged on under someone else's account. What he stole and posted here is peanuts compared to the dishonesty he exhibited.

there are two ethical issues here...

One - someone either gave someone else his/her password to a forum which he agreed would be private and confidential (assuming that is in the rules there somewhere) or otherwise allowed the other person access to this private forum.

Two - someone else posted this information publically, knowing that it came from a private forum.

It makes no difference what the content was...

No, the fact is that the guy was dishonest. Simple.
