1 | Inquiring minds want to know. | 2 Tim 2:23 | Sandman | 14596 | ||
Interesting use of sarcasm. Instead of edifying brothers of Christ, you have revealed the true substance of your own character. Sarcasm does not have a place on this forum. "We know that we all possess knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. The man who thinks he knows something does not yet know as he ought to know." 1 Cor. 8:1-2 "Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love." Eph. 4:2 Sandman |

2 | Inquiring minds want to know. | 2 Tim 2:23 | Radioman | 14659 | ||
Interesting use of sarcasm. Sandman: Thank you for expressing your judgment of my character and, in other posts, the motives and intentions of other post-ers. I have expressed my opinion of the caliber and quality of the posts of others. In turn you question the caliber and quality of mine. That's an interesting use of criticism. Sandman, you write: "Interesting use of sarcasm. Instead of edifying brothers of Christ, you have revealed the true substance of your own character. Sarcasm does not have a place on this forum." "Sarcasm does not have a place on this forum." Maybe, maybe not. But neither do rebellion, division, apostasy, heresy, wild speculation, arrogance and ignorance posing as wisdom have a place on this forum. And I honestly do not apply any of these characteristics to you, Sandman, or to sincere newcomers. My problem is not with you. Nor is it with newcomers, but with oldtimers or anyone else who base their opinions on speculation instead of Scripture. Agreeing or disagreeing with me is not the issue and it never was. The issue is not one's answer, but the supporting Scripture, if any, reasoning, and attitude with which the answer is written -- the process by which the opinion is arrived at. When I use the words wild speculation, arrogance, ignorance, etc., I'm speaking in terms of the entire history of this forum and its various crackpots and misfits who, at one time or another, have sought to dominate the forum or attract attention to themselves. Try to understand. I am not implying that to disagree with me makes one a crackpot or misfit. That is not the issue at all. What is the issue is, if anyone comes to this forum expecting answers based on Scripture and reason (common sense), then they most likely will be sadly disappointed with the vast majority of postings here. Re my Note, "Inquiring minds want to know," I would like to ask you, as a forum veteran of 40 days and 16 postings, what do you find sarcastic about my answers, numbers 1-5 and 7-10? Granted, they are blunt and to the point, but flippant? Sarcastic? Also, 7 of my 13 answers were direct answers to direct questions. Therefore, what is flippant about a "yes" or "no" answer? Just thought I'd ask. I'm not against you. I'm not saying that I am "right" and you are "wrong." Radioman |

3 | Inquiring minds want to know. | 2 Tim 2:23 | Norrie | 14663 | ||
Radioman, I just thought you got tired of the pussyfooting around and decided to nip it by giving short, quick answers. I didn't see where you did anything wrong, all you did was get to the point really quick. :) Maybe we need a few more quick answers. | ||||||

Norrie: Yes, that was my intention -- to quit shuckin' and jivin' and dancin' all around this "foolish and ignorant" speculation and to come quickly to the point. Thank you. Your perception and comments are both welcome and refreshing. Radioman |
