“First of all, making up the figure “a couple of thousand posts” pretty much shows how out of the loop that statement is.”

Oh, good grief. Ordinary people use hyperbole in ordinary speech. Get a grip.

“Secondly, in the scenario you postulate, usually the other poster will post writings from the belief system of the one being responded to to prove the point.”

If so, they are writings that have been dealt with a million times before.

“I used stars (****) for the potty language in your post in case the mods delete it from the Religion Forum as it is against the rules.”

Really? You’re going to nag me for using the word “butt?”

“If you are going to make totally false statements about the modding on this site”

If I were going to make false statements, I might ping the moderators.

“It’s kinda sneaky and backstabbing to spout a totally subjective and incorrect pronouncement without pinging those you are accusing.”

Road apples, Mrs. Grundy, road apples. The mods and I have had this discussion at least three times down the years. I posted nothing I haven’t posted to them directly.

And it’s all completely true.

But good job of turning the discussion away from the issues and focusing it on the personal.

1 Corinthians 13:

If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing. 4 Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, 5 does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, 6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part; 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away. 11 When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known. 13 But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Oh don't hold back, isn't it about a million times?

So the mods have denied your accusations and you still make them?

Myopic and subjective false accusations.

I suggest you see both sides instead of making it look like protestants are meanies and your group is squeaky clean. Absurd.

If so, they are writings that have been dealt with a million times before.

LOL and apparently you still don't get it...

Truth, or hyperbole?
