I don't like those names (all of them from Omega on down to Supervisor) either. They very much carry a connotation.

wow, Erwin never stops, he keeps going, moving up, but I wonder if he is doing it because he feels he isn't full in his life. I think he is trying to fill a void, that's why he keeps going to college, thats why he made CF, but nothing fills it so he moves on to the next thing. makes me wonder if he is even a christian, I think erwin believes in GOD but is also in the world. I sometimes wonder why people are content with the simple life, living in a small house, going to church and having kids, I don't understand that life. like erwin I have a void to fill. I hope Erwin finally sees that all the education, money and sucess won't make him happy in the end.

Cf is getting full of themselves, this is silly and very weird. its not a church, its just a forum full of posters. Once, cf stops taking it self like its GOD everything will be fine. Sorry, I'm bitter towards CF because my best friend had an addiction to it, it ruin his marriage almost and it ruin our friendship. Anyways, people with problems sometimes don't want christian help or help from a pastor.

I don't think it is fair to make judgments about Erwin's faith and its strength or not based on how busy he is and his choice to turn over a website to the hands of moderators.

I agree and actually his turning over the daily operations to folks active at CF was the only thing he could do given his schedule. Now it is up to the members to decide if those who have the reins now are in the right position.

I agree. I think he's made some very poor decisions, but I think they are made without full understanding. He's very trusting, and he consistently believes that people who express their belief in adamant terms are clearly trustworthy.

You know all those scammers who say they're Christian? They are targeting people like Erwin.

I also don't see a problem with people who want to hold onto the notion that people are generally good. I like my rose colored glasses, so I'm not going to try to break someone else's.

*sigh*

I just realize how often I post here...

I usually average at least 10 posts a day on most forums, but here it's only 1 every 2 days...

I should post here more often.
