I mean that respectfully. It was the first thought that popped into my mind when I read your post.

Someday I'll find that chink in your armor. 😉
I love truth and will fight for it.

"The truth will make you free" 🙂

It was one of most deeply profound and beautiful statements made by Jesus. Remarkable how many Christians seem to have a deep aversion to truth rather than an abiding love for it.

The first part of your post I have no problem with and I agree wholeheartedly.


"Remarkable how many Christians seem to have a deep aversion to truth rather than an abiding love for it."

But the statement above is kind of an oxymoron.

How can a Christian have an aversion for the truth? Being a Christian means having an affinity for the truth don't you think?

This guy has a long past of harassing me and I'm tired of it... We sould all be able to post and discuss things without this happening to any of us. I explained to him I made mistake in names and from my past experiances with him he will not stop until I report him.

Yeah ok. Do what you have to . After all, its just pixelated dots on a screen.

I really like ToO. He does so much work for me.
I know we have a mutual disagreement (you and I and ToO), but did you really have to report him? C'mon man. Its just a forum.

ToO is usually wound up tighter than a two dollar pocket watch. The poor guy is going to pop a gasket. No need to report him though. If he wishes to behave as he does that's his prerogative.

Before any of this, I liked ToO. He has some very good comments on spirituality.
I would be very displeased if the likes of him were to get a ban...

I have limited credit so I would like a gist before I went to a link.

(So much crap out there)

Seems like Christians should embrace truth, but that doesn't seem to be the reality. That's what makes it "remarkable".

Why do you continue to make false accusations?

If I have a "long past of harrassing" you as you claim, then you should be able to document it. But you won't, because you can't, because it's not true.

Note for Joseph: Here's an example. G75 hates hearing the truth in the form of valid criticism so resorts to making false accusations. Presumably it makes him "feel better". Take a look at "ego defense mechanisms" if you're interested in the psychology behind it.
