You RM thread was interesting, but you really set the precedent with the title of the thread, IMO. It still appears to be more personal than unlayering the truth of the Prodigal Son. Just, still, my observation. Now, you are still supposed to like me after I said that. Can you do it?

As to the Apostolic News responding to things here. I wouldn't have done it, but where did the information "start" to get them upset? I wouldn't want the starting place to be in my court. That's all I'm saying.
Of course I can. Well, I can't... but He's helping me jk

I wish Admin could settle this in your head about how quick from the time the post was created and the title was edited. Admin, can you do that? Maybe PO will feel better. I quoted from his page, typed his name, my intent was not to "attack Rob McKee." You can choose to call me a liar if you wish. I'll still like you even then ....

As for the AN... well, your discretion is not everyone else's. Have patience with us I don't know what information provoked them to blast the forum (and it sounds like you agree with AN, so that makes more sense). That wasn't my point. They did, and that makes them fair game. Not to mention they are a "news site."

And let's everyone remember that your poop stinks too!

It isn't the RM name. This is the title of the thread. It just comes across as personal to me. Prodigal Son Distorted by FB Pastor. So, I am not calling you a liar. I saw that you asked to have it changed.

I don't know anything about AN. I don't read anything there and didn't even know about them. I'm just saying, if it was me, I would choose to ignore the slander. Mainly, because, when I told my kids NOT to do something, they wanted to do it. Well, my daughter, not my son. LOL! So, if they tell someone not to read this type forum, guess where the readers will go? You guessed it. Here! LOL!

I thought it was you laying down the gun because you knew neither would change their mind.

Put down the gun... and pick up a knife. You can get closer that way! *evil music*

PO, to the topic of my thread title, perhaps I could have worded it as "Prodigal Son Distorted?" FB Pastor maybe was too personal?

It's just where I had just read it. It was fresh on my mind. And when I removed his name, it seemed far better than my first title.

Anyway... it is what it is. I don't even know RM, have nothing personal against him (other than I wish he'd get more Gospel-centered hehehe), and certainly do not care to harm him with words.

I have always liked Digging and reading his posts, but this sentence in his first post is not laying down a gun, IMO. It comes across as accusing and antagonistic.

That is often the case with PO & I.

But it isn't necessary for people to come to the same conclusion to have good debate. It's just that sometime it is taken as an attack... sometimes it isn't.

The hard part is knowing when which is which. Or at least knowing when to leave it be.

PO - am I mistaken or did you used to be a little more liberal in your views several years ago? I might have you mixed up with someone else...

I don't think anything that I believe has changed. Don't believe in the HMH thingy and that standards are heaven and hell, if that is what you are referring to. But, I never have believed that.

I think that we are all liberal, moderate and conservative in various areas of our lives. I'm not sure we could emphatically label ourselves in only one. I lean more conservative, but not in everything. Did I answer your question?
