Just as you posted about dingbats not knowing about all that you listed, if you don't read here how do you know what the atmosphere is now?
Just trying to be fair here.

Based upon when I was a daily poster.
Why, has things changed?

LOL.....I have stories and things that happened, but I can honestly say if there were any wounds, I don't have them now.
I just know more than some people want to give me credit for around here.

The point is that MANY standards are not supported by biblical principle, but are pastoral preference. Not that there's anything wrong with a pastor asking that his preferences be followed, BUT Ron said that all standards start with a biblical principle... 
I'm just showing him the error of his conclusions.

Re: The REAL Reason CONS have left or rarely post
Some cons may have left because they felt lives were being changed by AFF and those who recognized it were probably noticing a change in their hearts and minds also. They were feeling the shackles of legalism beginning to loosen on their own wrists, so they met in a different forum/huddle and began helping each other tighten their bands.
They return here from time to time but aren't confident enough to stay.

It's all in perception.
I believe attitudes have changed the most on BOTH sides.

Well, BOTH blanket statements were incorrect. That's why I dislike most blanket statements.

Are we trying to?
I thought the real reason the cons left was because of St. Mark.
