No, that is not what I am saying at all. Atheists and/or theists are obviously free to butt into each others' threads. As you say, that is what public forums are for.
I am just making appeal to basically stay on topic within the parameters of the current discussion in that thread (which, I agree, may have deviated from the OP).
The example mentioned a ...[text shortened]... dus operandi (ignore inappropriate posts and go on) why be interested in Forum Etiquette at all?

Originally posted by CalJustCould it be that we personally are wanting to stick to the subject of the thread and not deviate from it as most threads do?
I have had exactly the same experience from G and RC.
In one post I asked RC for an expression of an opinion (following one of his posts) and his response was that he is only interested in discussing scripture verses, and not enter into any dialogue about anything else.
Well, that sort of limits matters and I have since then never responded to any of t ...[text shortened]... if individuals, for their own personal reasons, wish to exclude themselves from rational debate.
Could it be that the question that has been asked and which would be deviating the subject of the thread has been discussed many other times and we see no need in going there again?
Could it be that some here such as divegeester will never accept the answer or answers given and has proved many, many times that he will not take the answer given and will continue to ask the same basic question over and over and over with whatever twist he can add to it and in my personal opinion is only on a mission to disrupt the thoughts from the bible we try to share?
Could it be by things said, accused, misrepresented and even lied about by such ones as divegeester, has run it's course and one has decided to longer communicate with that person because of the history that person has demonstrated many times that they are not being honest which tends to make one ignor their constant hounding even to the point of following one to other threads and ask the same questions about other threads and with constant trolling and would include PW's from that person on the same subject?
Really? Does anyone here that that is right and good for the forums?
If anyone here does not personally like another "for whatever personal reasons" why should they be expected to comminicate with them just because they continually follow them "everywhere" and demand to be acknowledged and thow out insults because there not responding?
Really?
Ps......Mr divegeester let me make this as clear as humanly possible. I have no desire to communicate with you about anything, on any level, at any moment of any day, ever. If you must read this over a few dozen time to help you to understand, please do so. Good day and "move on".
Originally posted by menace71I would say G75 is Batman not the other way around. No one wants to be Robin. As mentioned in Kick-Ass 2.

Originally posted by menace71Yeah it's fair to say we are like Batman and Robin.. LOl But we are spiritual brothers and believe the same 100% so why shouldn't we have each others backs when it comes to defending our faith?

First of all, how to obtain consensus on what constitutes good FE, and secondly what an appropriate punishment would be. [...] 😀

Originally posted by menace71if Robbie and the Gman are like batman and Robin then bitchingeester must be.... the Catwoman??? all that meowing he does. Indeed sometimes I simply cannot be bothered replying as i got mega other stuff to do, no one is under any compulsion to say anything, next we shall be receiving subpoenas and divesgeester will be pacing up and down shining lights in our eyes, 'we hav ze ways....' I prefer to see us as Bo and Luke Duke with Cal Just as Cleetus, divesgeester as Rosco Peeko and Bourbaki as Boss Hogg. Some people simply take themselves too seriously.
