“But everyone has to look at their, often, provocative headlines. And are powerless to comment.”
So? Why do you feel a need to debate everyone at all times? I honestly think many of the open religion threads end up shaming Christians and all religious people by the bitterness and constant attacks. If I found an interesting article on corporate election, I might post it as an Arminian Caucus thread (if allowed) so that I could discuss it and think about it without having Calvinists cluttering up the thread with acrimonious attacks.
In like manner, a Calvinist might want to flesh out his thoughts on a thread without having me attack his Calvinist beliefs.
A church does not allow just anyone to come in and disrupt meetings. They want to be free from distractions for certain purposes. Why is that wrong? And how can I enjoy that benefit if I do not extend it to others?
That in the world are you talking about? This isn’t a church.
If I can see it I want the option of commenting on it. Is that so unreasonable?
