How did it get started?

Seminole,
Let me first say that I'm not a moderator... and I don't want to pretend to be one, but I have been a member of this forum for quite some time now, going on a year now I believe.
It seems like many of the questions that are asked here have usually been asked before at some time in the past... stick around long enough and you'll see the cycle of questions for yourself.
The question you have posed concerning whether Ray is rude or "less than courteous" in his email responses is one I have seen at least a dozen times and it never ends with a positive result.
Usually, several forum members will come to Ray's defense saying that they have met him personally or know biblical reasons for Ray response style, others will link to Ray's You Fools! You Hypocrites! You Snakes! paper or the LOF series... others will agree, Ray has no right to respond the way that he does and at the end of it all we have is division among the body.
It's obvious you already have made up you mind about the way that Ray responds... you state:

Maybe that is part of why Ray comes across as he does. He has been hurt. I can't listen to audio. I can't get it to work! Back to the point though we have all been hurt at some time or another . Does that give us the right to be less than courteous even if there is disagreement?

Let me suggest that if you have a problem with the way Ray addresses those who email him, take it up with him personally and let him speak for himself... rather then bringing it up here where I guarantee no one can answer for Ray or why he does what he does better than himself.
His email address is located on the bottom portion of the main page, www.bible-truths.com.
God's Peace
Josh

Maybe if Dennis has the time and inclination he could write a little synopsis on how it started.
Sorry to put you on the spot Dennis! ;D

Like you said Joe, Ray wrote the Kennedy and Hagee letters and I thought they belonged on the Internet and started bible-truths.com. I felt lucky to get the URL bible-truths.com. Now we own bibletruths.com too.
I remember when the first few emails started arriving (many of the emails near the top of the homepage are still from the first year) and how cool that was.
Here is what the site looked like that first year: http://web.archive.org/web/20010405154754/http://bible-truths.com/
My, how we have grown.
