Jude 2

down my reputation on the Doctrinal thread over there. I'm here to warn you not to buy into his lies. How'd he get approved to be a Pastah anyhow? If he PM's you trying to denigrate me, please...PLEASE tell him you are not going to listen to EVEN ONE of his lies.

Hey irthnvesl,

I like you...you keep it interesting around here...but if you're refering to "Pastor Bill"...he is a good guy...

All I can say is "If you can't take it...Don't dish it out!"

I've seen you start threads to peronally point out at least two people, so far, that you're having a hard time with...

Tough it out man...

Nahhh... you're missing what's going on. Irthenvsl posys provocative teases on the general interest board when his multiple threads in the doctrinal forum are not getting the traffic (read:attention) he seeks.

I keep hoping he will catch on to a matter of style on this forum, which differs from many others. Instead of toying with posters, couching everything in the Socratic questioning style, he might get more response by simply stating his thesis clearly and debating it rather than peeling away what he believes a layer at a time like an onion.

My time is limited on Jude2 (believe it or not) and I can't stay with a thread for a week just to finally get to the point.

Yea, I was just joshing with brother Billy.

PG, I was trying the Socratic Method that YOU recommended. I try to state my stuff outright but I don't think I'm very good at it. I think maybe I have theological ADHD. I will work on being more straightforward. Until we meet again, I LOVE YOU SUCKAS.

P.S. I'm not sure how I could state my thesi (is that a word?) any more clearly than what I have. PG, would you give me an example of something I could be more clear on? (he typed as he sipped on his second Newcastle Brown)

Let's see if we can cut that onion in half!!!

I'm happy to stand corrected....

He got me hook, line, and sinker...

I browsed through every stinking recent doctrine thread trying to find the juicy stuff...

P.S. I usually read the doctrine thread anyway...I just don't post much overthere...

I come to this pool for the shallow water...I'm too stressed to stray over to the deep end right now...might drown....

But does it actually generate traffic or keep people FURTHER away from it?

Mac,

That's a good question. BUT, sometimes I like to provide the entertainment. Theological discussions CAN be stressful especially if you are in the minority. So sometimes it pays to try to lighten the mood a bit. I know that I have to keep from taking myself too seriously. I actually love the verse in Ecclesiastes about not being 'over-righteous' much.

At the end of the day, we will have our disagreements about a whole bunch of doctrines. But maybe, just maybe, every now and again somebody will say something to make somebody else actually think about scripture in a new way.
