17 votes made. Considering that this is more than whom are actively participating in threads. Hmm
Galatians 2
21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

yes its super conservative.... I dare not ask some of the usual questions I have here cause there seems to be little tolerance for questioning "things." That has been my observation...
Where there is life, there is hope....

Can you give us an example of this?

On 10/17/06 Frans post in part stated, "the other forums are MEAN in my opinion." I agree. Some are quite vicious.
In other forums I have observed, posters from a different perspective, are often 'torn apart' which leaves the victim poster with only two choices; fight back or back away. The final result is the aggressive poster' opinion prevails.
Another circumstance that may skew the 'liberal versus conservative' perception is the fact many viewers, lurkers and posters are unable to participte due to time constraints, e.g., lack of available time to participate in on-line forums. Thus the postings of a very few number of individuals, albeit by default, sets the 'tone' of the forum.

Well, while people wouldnt be thorn appart here (not anymore and not so obviously anyway), you might still find your post removed to some moderators only archive forum on a whim. Maybe it is more humane to walk over people than to fight them, I dont know, but thats for everyone to decide for themselves..

Steve,
There's a huge difference in asking a question you do not know the answer to vs asking a rhetorcal question just to stir up controversy. Generally on a Seventh-Day Adventist forum you will always have those who like to ask questions that have been asked loads of times, on other forums, have been answered, but enjoy the conflict and confrontation, its there favorite thing to do, its like they gotta ask the same thing over and over again. It has little to do or has absolutely nothing to do with wanting to learn or "become enlightened".
I am aware some aren't too keen on the validity of the Bible, don't need the Bible, the Investigative Judgment, lets see another hot topic is Ellen White, Dress reform, music, is there a real sanctuary in heaven, thatsjust to name a few.
People will justify whatever they need to, and if it means to throw out the Bible they will do so.
God Bless,
Will

isnt the purpose of a forum to discuss? Do we think that we have arrived at the point that the beliefs we hold are beyond exploration and discussion?
