I think Igzy has been reasonable and patient in seeing this topic develop. At the beginning I tried to keep everybody corralled within the original 4 points, but as usual you guys never want to keep corralled! One reason I like everybody to stay on topic(q) is it has a tendency to act as a safeguard against food fights. I'm not calling whats going on here a food fight, there are much deeper issues and I don't have time to address them right now.

What I will say is that I have a big problem with posts that are designed to stop or slow down the conversation. This is done with being argumentative, throwing out red herrings and deliberately acting as if a poster has not made himself perfectly clear. I don't mean we have to agree with each other, but it is disrespectful to be constantly misunderstanding on purpose.

Gotta go.
Help me, help you.
Hello dear brother UntoHim,

I am vacation for a few weeks and I was curious, so I began "lurking" again. I am really disappointed to see that dear brother ZNPaaneah has once again highjacked all the active threads with his tactics. Besides the obvious obfuscation, there is the question of how many times do we have to hear his arrogant re-hashes of how perfectly he preached the gospel, how perfectly he could "prophecy", etc.

I am not the only one who gave up on this place. I can still clearly remember dear brother Toledo's plea that he came here for fellowship and all he received was pettiness and "the parsing of words". By allowing bullies like brother Z who specialize in "sharpshooting" and kill genuine fellowship, you cause many to lose heart.

Brother Z is exactly why I gave up on this forum. I can still remember his insistence that Jesse had trained David in warfare. And his refusal to admit that Song of Songs was never quoted or referred to in the New Testament. Even solid evidence from the very Greek scholars who compiled the Greek NT which is the basis for modern translations (including the RcV) is not good enough for brother Z! He still wanted to "sharpshoot" and he refused to listen. Real conversations are not possible with someone like that.

I thought dear brother ZNPaaneah made a very heartfelt post the other day regarding his desire to know, amongst other things, if his experiences in the LRC were genuine and if he had been hearing from the Lord during his LRC days. (That would be an excellent discussion for a new thread!) I am no psychiatrist but it seems like in his effort to convince himself regarding his years in the LRC, he is resorting to bully-like attacks against the other participants here.

I had high hopes that things had changed, but I see that nothing has changed.
