Default Banned from Christian Forum

All I did was respond to a total a**h***! :huh: The thread was about Wicca and witchcraft and the OP just asked for information about what that was all about, and asked if it was satanism. This poster I responded to was ranting that anyone who was a non-christian was a satanist and was going to hell. He didn't stop there. He went on for several sentences. I posted saying that Jesus did teach about love, didn't he, and probably wouldn't approve of that sort of bigotry. I also said he (the poster) sounded like a monster.

I got a very nice warning, asking me to edit my post to remove the word bigot. The admin who wrote me also wrote: "Yes, I know. He is a bigot." So, what the hell. I edited that bit out of my post.

Even so, later when I got a chance to get back to my 'puter, I saw that I had an email stating that I was "permanently banned" for trolling with "hateful garbage".

Too bad. I had already chalked up about 4 blessings... whatever that means. :Cheeky:

So.... do I get any special commendation for this? A badge maybe?

Congrats, there are many here who've been banned from CF (it's getting to be little more than a police state, imo).

Visit the good folk in ~~E~~ to vent more frustrations if you'd like; there's a 60 page thread on CF bannings, no less. No need to worry, though; you only need reply and tell your story.

Who was the person flaming non-christians, just out of curiosity?

Don't worry, I'll show you the way - to Elsewhere that is.
This thread will head there with the reast of the CF threads with a redirect up here so folks can find it.

Someone here (I forget who) managed to get banned from ChristianForums.com while registering, without making a single post. :notworthy:

Well if you make a bizarre name, such as jesus_sex, you'll probably get instantly banned.

Earthcat, I don't think going to CF and calling people monsters is a great way to start off

curious. could you post the email here please? remove identifying text if you like, it seems rather an overstatement, unless you posted something else. you can always appeal, which I think is worth it.
