Smilin

I've started many...yes.

I had no idea and didn't know or care. I do know you two keep making a big deal of it. He followed her here to keep telling her how 'wrong' her personal life was. Sounds like an obsession to me. This is the Infidels forum. You'll find many of different race, religion, and sexual orientation here. Go beat on some of them for a change.

FWIW, I see her as a friend. She gave me good advice once.


Well, he keeps bringing up her personal sex life. What does that tell you?


I'm neither a lesbian nor made such a claim. Don't be rude and put words in my mouth.



Wrong about what?

OK I will stop, but how can you say that? Smilin said it more than once. Anyway I am done.

Smilin

I'm done,,

I posted that before her request.

Sorry.

And stop the flames. Madfish that is directed especially at you.

Livius has had to edit several of your posts above.

Kristie

She edited one post of mine.

So I am the bad guy.

Nobody cares how this makes me feel. Or how it affects me?

Of course not...

I should have known, anyway I said I was done. I don't care anymore.

Smilin

I apologize.

livius drusus

Two, actually.

Bad? No. But you do need to control your temper in order to comply with the rules of this forum.

I wouldn't leap to that conclusion. All the same, your inner peace is not the material issue here. Your behavior is.

I am glad to hear that you are done flaming.

livius drusus

Stop goading her, Smilin.

Madfish,

Please calm down. No one here wants you to be upset, I'm sure. I think you are over-reacting to what Smilin said. Infidels is, in general, a more irreverant place than CF. And we don't know how it affects you when irreverant things are said about Badfish.

Let's talk about something else, entirely--as has been suggested.

Have some cookies. Have you looked at other areas of IIDB? I know that Badfish is flitting around several threads, and I guess you're lurking from what you've said earlier? You should watch it--that's how I got hooked here! haha. But talking to other people here is a neat experience. Hope to see you in other threads.

First off Smilin, the discussions between me and Lasher or any other homosexual that says they are a Christian yet plainly says they do not believe the scriptures causes me to debate that position, you are just causing more trouble by insinuating or making false statements in which you know nothing about. Lasher is not the first gay person that I have had these debates with (if that's what you want to call them).

My big thing was how can someone profess Christianity and say that they do not believe the scriptures, and live and display a demeanor totally contradictive to biblical teachings?

I am happily married and do not appreciate being talked about behind my back or being the subject of false labeling, if you have something to say, be a man and say it to me in private.

Another thing is, is that CF is a Christian Forum and Apologetics is about contending the faith, if someone is prominently saying that they are gay and do not believe the scriptures yet say they are Christian, well then that person has garnered the attention of Christians that see this as living in complete sin and being derrogatory to the faith by so grossly misrepresenting it.

Now if Lasher was open to the possibility of considering her position to be wrong, then the debate would have gone in a different direction. Yes I do consider my position to be more authorative concerning scripture than someone who doesn't recognize that the scriptures are a consideration as they are the basis for the Christian faith, time and time again the question is dodged as I asked how does one base their faith in a God who's only testimony is recorded in the bible (seeing we do not have the original texts in hand).


As to the "why bother" comment, it is a gross injustice in the name of civil debate to to take what I said out of context and use it to leverage a debate or to attack someone personally. As a Christian and a human I take this kind of behavior seriously and have concluded that you offer nothing but insults and are only out to garner the approval of your fellow gang here to selfishly help with your own apparent shortcomings.

I have watched you Smilin go from being a Christian (or at least professing to be Christian) to professing that you don't have a God anymore, and for what reason? The only reason I see is because of your recent desperation to be approved by people whom you do not even know personally AFAIK. And to make yourself look cool. And if you are going to continue, then in the interest of fair play I will bring information about some questionable and serious behavior you have presented at CF (public or private) and to some of it's members that will seriously put into question your own morality. Actually I probably won't because that would only be further gossip, and I don't want to be involved in such matters as it is to no benefit of my own personal life, and would not be interested in stooping to your level.

livius: Allowing Smilin and anyone else to flame or demean someone is against the rules, I find it to be offensive and inflammatory to be accused of having a fetish on an unfounded and unsubstantiated basis, I would appreciate Smilin's remarks to be removed considering he has not provided any substantiation for these claims, this person does not know me personally and is doing your board a disservice by being allowed to flame and make unfounded remarks concerning a fairly long standing and cordial member of IIDB.

A truce was called (seemingly as no one objected) and Smilin was allowed to further fan the flames for seemingly his own selfish pleasure, as his claims are both unfounded and hurtful. Please take care of this or I will ask crazyfingers, Rufus or another superior to look into this If this isn't at least taken into consideration, then it is open game and I will request that any substantiated charges or attempts to defend my position be honored and allowed to stand.

I would suggest that Smilin and Lasher take a step back and consider taking a mature stance on this apparent problem and discussing homosexuality or whatever other issues you have with me or the bible or God in the appropriate forums, and not stoop to such immaturity as to turning this thread into an insult fest.
