Bible Note: Greetings Nolan! You know how much I appreciate you as a brother and a friend (even though we haven't had to chance to meet yet). But, I have to mildly disagree with you on this point. I really think that some are being overly sensitive on this issue. Joe and I are not warring (and I know you didn't say we were). In fact, even during the previous debate, I don't recall any hard feelings or harshness (maybe I missed out on that.) My view is simple. 1) Complex issues can't be discussed in a simple fashion. What I mean is, not every issue will be resolved in one or two posts. This one may never be resolved, but it is a good discussion. I know I'm learning from it. 2) Anyone who isn't interested, doesn't have to take part or even read the posts. We are all at different stages in our Christian walks. I know there are some posts that do not interest me in the slightest. I simply pass over them. As long as there is no bickering taking place, I have no problem with a "long" discussion. I also look forward to others adding their comments when they feel they have something to add. Well, I've got to get to bed! I am about to fall aslllllllleeeeeppp! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
