LuthAMF Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 I am sad. I stated objection to an article. Banned. No warning. No reason given. I can only assume someone didn't like my tone. I called no one names. I used no profanity. Are you that suspicious here? That protective? That insecure?I'm sure that is NOT the case but someone sure is touchy.

Here in the den I'm sure you'll find that whatever material you might wish to post will be allowed. By it certainly won't be exempt from criticism. Enter at your own risk.

But anyway, what is the gist of the article and what is your thought about it? Do you feel that God is real and want to tell us why? Or give us evidence? That's often what things boil down to here in the Lion's Den subforum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you post anything that goes against the rules and guidelines you may find it moved, deleted or any other such warning issued at the top of every subforum. We ask that proselytizing posts and / or information be confined to our debate areas, which, is where you currently are. If you didn't mean to post here, then you've been moved here to the Lion's Den per our posted rules and guidelines. You're now free to carry on with your article or whatever you'd like to try and discuss or debate here in the Lion's Den. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which one - provide link? 5 hours ago, LuthAMF said: Banned. No warning. No reason given. That doesn't happen here - you have to be continually and for an extended period of time breaking the rules and posting in an egregious manner to get banned. 5 hours ago, LuthAMF said: I can only assume someone didn't like my tone.

No 5 hours ago, LuthAMF said: That insecure? No 5 hours ago, LuthAMF said: I'm sure that is NOT the case but someone sure is touchy. You are sure its not the case... but someone is touchy? So it is the case?? Hmmm Ok whatever the subject was hit us with your best shot. (PS I'm guessing it's a forum glitch as you are the second person to come through, make a post, but apparently your post count is zero. @webmdave is the system having issues with new members?) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin webmdave Posted May 16, 2019 Admin Share Posted May 16, 2019 This person is talking about behaving as a troll on an old post on the main blog. He has only one post in the forum... This one. Unsure about an answer to the post count question. Investigating the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ought a person submit to you directly the content of a post and leave it to your discretion whether or not to make it public? That would resolve the issue, right?

midniterider Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 ( Cheap seque) Speaking of intolerance: https://sojo.net/articles/american-christianity-has-become-institution-intolerance snipped from article: Meanwhile, they’ll (Christians) join their congregations and worship a God they claim has lavished unwarranted grace, mercy, forgiveness, and love upon them. Singing lyrics like “I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away, Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God…” These same worshippers regarding immigrants, refugees, and foreigners: “they didn’t earn it, they don’t deserve it.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Moderator TheRedneckProfessor Posted May 16, 2019 Super Moderator Share Posted May 16, 2019 Based on your behavior on this thread so far, I'm starting to form the opinion that the description of "troll" might have some merit to it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, what "behavior"? Noting that florduh need not have responded as he did? Why am I sensing hostility already? Why not be concerned about that after one simple post?

disillusioned Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 You were clearly trolling, and you were rude. When you post comments on someone else's blog, you have to play by their rules. Just how it is. Here in the Den, the rules are fairly permissive. If you want to state your objections clearly, I'm sure we could muster up some responses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read the article; ALL of it and noted something. Big deal. Is that all it takes here? Like I said, that's pretty touchy. The solution? DISCONTINUE COMMENTS on archived articles.

In this case, mainly just yours. 4 minutes ago, LuthAMF said: I read the article; ALL of it and noted something. Big deal. Is that all it takes here? Like I said, that's pretty touchy. You called the article "grossly unfair", called the author ignorant, and implied that the readers were equally ignorant. If you noted anything specific, I've missed it. Feel free to draw it to my attention. Otherwise, this is clearly just trolling, and calling it such is not being touchy. It's being accurate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
