Why moved to a restricted section?

<< < (2/8) > >>

Sorin:
I don't like the way this forum is moderated either, Brett. I don't agree with the moving to private sections, with the reasons why some threads are locked and or deleted, and why some members are banned. You say they come in here preaching doctrines of men; so why not refute them instead of copping out? You say newbies to the forum will get confused and wonder what this forum is all about; not if they also see the refutation. It will only strengthen what is the widely held belief on this forum, and prove how erroneous the Christian doctrines are for all to see.

Unless it's a porn link, spam, foul and or abusive language, or improper photos or something, I see no reason to delete a post, a thread and or ban someone.

This is my opinion,

Sorin

It is amazing to me how people love to get offended, it is true in almost every facet of our lives, even here. Whenever an action is taken by a moderator there will be some who say "why did you do that?" And there will also be those who say "what took you so long?"  ???

This Forum was created to discuss the papers on Bible Truths not as a soapbox for would be teachers, antagonists, flamethrowers and the like. Now if we all had a deep grasp of all the articles and wanted to dissect certain fallacies together maybe that would work, but today this is not yet the case.

How many of us have a good understanding of the scriptures? I think we know the answer, but there are those who say "What about the Gospel of Judas, of Thomas, how about the apocrypha?" How about becoming familiar with the Bible as we have it now first?

There are never going to be decisions made that will be greeted by 100% agreement, well maybe that statement might get 100% but very few others.....  ;)

If you want debates visit or join one of the 10's of thousands of christian sites dedicated to that activity, if you want to discuss the articles on Bible Truths you have come to the right place!

His Peace to you,

Joe

I'm going to be blunt here.   You don't have to like it you just have to accept it, if you can't then move on.  As Joe said there are thousands of "Christian" forums out there that allow everything and anything in between, have fun.

The rules of the forum and how it is moderated is as clear as we can make them, to join the forum you agree to them.  If you change your mind then you are free to leave, we are not here to get as many members as possible, and we realize the rules will not sit well with some.

Sorin:
Wow! Wasn't expecting that. But whatever, I'll leave then.

I just PM'd Sorin and he is already gone!!!

You mods answered very clearly and w/o offense I thought.  You have had to defend yourselves several times and remind the board what the "raison d'etre" is.

So you lock a thread.  Joe you explained it very well when you locked the suffering thread.  It had splintered off. If a thread is moved, so what.  You have your reasons.

I don't understand the "touchiness" or "have to be right and make that point" mentality.  We are here because we feel Ray's teachings are worth discussing and fellowshipping around.

I had just PM'd Joe saying how good the board has been lately. Didn't know all the drama going on I guess.

To read this forum I take time away from reading Ray's site.  I feel the teaching I get here will make up for it.  Then I love seeing how people are doing in their lives-ups and downs. I mean I fellowship w/ people around the world and every walk of life here!

Oh well, my 2 cents anyway. I still will miss any who leave.
