Your thread does not fairly characterize liberals like myself. I don't take the Bible as "suggestions" and you know it. What I don't take is wild leaps in logic from scripture and misapplication of scriptures to enforce a false corporate legalism. That is a far cry from just taking the bible as "suggestions.

The Bible is quite clear on God's moral law. It is just a shame that Old Time Oneness Pentecostals think a shirt sleeve above an elbow has something to do with God's moral law, etc, etc, etc.

At least be fair with your characterizations.
CC1,

I interpreted this thread to be all in fun.

PP,

Is it too late to add a line about liberals taking themselves altogether too seriously?

wait a minute . . .

Come to think of it, so do conservatives . . . uh oh.

It was meant to be fun, but I suppose my sense of humor is whacked.



Oh well, at least I tried.

When did that become a rule, you legalist?

You still love me and you know it!
LOL!!!! You are right that I still love ya. I am sorry if I was snappy in my response to your thread. The week back after vacation is always a trying one although I have to admit this one was not as bad as I had thought it would be. It turned out the timing of my vacation was pefect as far as work is concerned.

It was not easy returning from 75-80 degree weather in paradise to lows in the low 20's at night this week and actually a little snow yesterday.

that's the bottom line and that is my firm opinion on the matter.
I think it's better for them to leave and form cliques "over there" than to be constantly stirring up trouble over here.

I wish them the best wherever they go, but I have no problem saying that there are some of them who, if they never come back, its quite fine with me. We can do without the extra drama and contentiousness that some people seem to bring.

Now, you should know that these rather acerbic individuals are normally of the radically conservative bent. In fact, they are so conservative they don't even believe they themselves are holy enough to make it to Heaven. To that end, they decide to step away from AFF in order to find forums that are holier. I have determined they we should pray for these fine men and women in their never-ending search for the perfect fellowship of believers because, God knows, It can be exhausting.
I just wanted to say that AFF IS horrible, every poster here is going to the hot-place on the back of a heat seeking missle, and I am THE most acerbic individual on a radically conservative bend.

In fact, I am sooo conservative that I don't even believe that I even I am holy enough to make it to heaven. I am going to leave AFF now to find a forum that IS indeed holier.

Please pray for me that I will never stop searching for the perfect forum or stop reaching for the unreachable bar. After all, I like to be self-oppressed, I am easier to control and above all it makes me feel spiritual!!!!

Yes,but not at you personally.I know several people who are members there and that's fine.I'm not upset at them.
I joined Dan's forum as did many including owners and even a few conservatives.
