RJHinds has been asked why he hasn't withdrawn and is still here even after being exposed as a cheat. I wonder what you make of this:
RJHinds: [b]It is by the grace of the Lord Jesus that I am still here as a benefit for some on this forum. Many of you need spiritual help badly. ... because the Lord can still use me to help to fulfill His purpose.[/b]
This was, IMHO, a good sign. ALL of us have blind spots, and we need each other to recognise these so that we can grow.
So, in that spirit, I gave my two cents worth, in (what I thought to be) the most constructive and least hurtful manner possible.
However, it was soon evident that honest feedback was the very LAST thing that RJH wanted!
Because I dared to point out what I believe to be the truth, he branded me a Non-Christian, thereby negating anything I had to say!
I withdrew from this thread when it became evident that he would just increasingly hide behind his fake "christianity" (I am doing GOD's work! Christ is 100% behind me! I am His chosen instrument to bring the heathen to heel! HalleluYah! 😏 )
The fact of the matter is that Christ's followers are warned by no less than Him personally that "by our fruits we shall be judged".
Unfortunately, RJH's "fruits" on RHP have been sour and inedible.
One of the basic attributes (fruits) of Christians is a spirit of humility, teachableness and love of your neighbour, whether believer or atheist. The example for this comes from Christ himself, who was accused by the religiosity of the day for mixing with "drunkards and prostitutes".
So, the only conclusion that we must draw is that RJH is one of those false prophets that we have been warned about, those that will endeavour to bring the entire teachings of Christ into disrepute. Deluded themselves, they will claim the authority of God (who has turned his back on them) to draw others away.
Dishonesty, pride, and a stifling self-righteousness are all defining symptoms.
Cheating at Chess (to feed these traits) is just a minor product (fruit) of such a mentality. And, of course, owning up to it and resigning from the site is a physical impossibility for someone plagued by this affliction.

Do you think that if you could show that I am actually an evolutionist, that what I said in my previous post would be replied or annulled?
We are talking about YOUR atitude of self-righteousness and arrogance, and (just for once!) NOT about evolution!
😠

Originally posted by CalJustYou know where I am coming from with my reasoning. I am not sure about you. So I need, at least a clue.

You know where I am coming from with my reasoning.
If anybody points out a personal failing or character flaw in me, all I need to do is show that that person believes in evolution, then the entire argument falls away and I do not have to answer it!
Isn't this like shooting the messenger??
I think there may well be a basic flaw in that kind of reasoning.....
(Aside: I would expect a Grand Master to have better logic.)

Originally posted by RJHindsWhen the accusation was put to you, you said the devil made you do it. So accusation was not false. It was confirmed by no lesser person than yourself.
That was a false accusation by others and not a confession. I confess my faith
in Christ as God and the only savior or mankind. HalleluYah !!! 😏

Do you agree that the premise of this thread has been proven?!
You asked if at least some Christians were embarrassed by your behaviour on this site, and received a clear YES.
Even jaywill gave you only qualified support - and received your embarrasing thanks, like a drowning man clutching at a plank.
Now what?
Originally posted by CalJustI don't think any true Christian has said that I am an embarassment to Christians. They realize I can not always be right, but that I will admit error

when shown the truth. I really think I embarrass the atheists and the
evolutionists by exposing their false teachings. HalleluYah!!! 😏
