Default where is the pulpit?

well boys and girls, I have been rejected again, for my sword of faith doth convict as it cuts away the fog of war, which war having been luanched against the minds of men in antiquity, in which war I have the High honor to humbly help carry His victory banner, Grace to it, Grace to it. Gloria a Dios !
Know that it is not myself that alone you reject but my Friend and the God whom I love and seek for strength, even as i write even, as you read : Fear God and give glory unto Him for the hour of his judgment is come; and worship Him who made the heavens and the earth, the seas and the fountains of water.

Tell me If I want to share my belief in God where do I go at IIDB?

Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach. Hebrews 13:13

While I don't think any of the forums would qualify as a "pulpit" - it is, after all a discussion board as opposed to a place for one-way preaching - I'd imagine that depending on the topic, the upper forms are more appropriate (since these social forums are specifically intended to be "preaching-free" unless that has changed).

Maybe try General Religious Discussions, depending on what you have in mind.

As I gallantly eat my potato chips the moon doth hang in the sky, and with my keyboard of writing do I verily shout :

Puella aquam portat!

You said, "Girl, bring water!" As I said, I hope you weren't talking to your wife. Else she likes that kind of stuff - cool with me. I had a girl once who loved being called "Gallica meretrix." :shrugs:

Puella aquam portat! = The girl is carrying the water. Correct? I took this a while ago, and thought the imperative case was porta.

I'll go with your version though, "Fetch the water girl!".

I love taking direction from blasphemers, but really sir/madam, I dislike intensely the idea that athiests promote, believing it will take one on a one-way trip to hell. But I don't make my user name some slap in the face at M.M. O'hair or Freddy Nietzsche. Poor taste even for an infidel, no?

To answer your question, the pulpit is over in the Christian forum. This is The Lounge, and preaching is not on here.

For all have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of Mithras and are redeemed freely through his Amnesty. :grin:

IIDB is not the place to witness. Its not allowed in any forums and certainly not the Lounge
