We have not agressively pursued the Great Commission and wonder

The Great Commission is not being fulfilled in the Religion Forum Ghetto. Its a bunch of committed Christians wasting precious time and energy rehashing the same old arguments ad nauseum, while the culture of death rolls over our land. Leave this ghetto, shut it down, and then BEGIN pursuing the Great Commission in places where your efforts may bear fruit, not do the work of the evil one, as so much debate on this Religion Forum now does.

I agree on the News forum we need to be of one voice

***The Great Commission is not being fulfilled in the Religion Forum Ghetto.***

Your opinion, not mine.

***Leave this ghetto, shut it down,***

You may leave at you choosing and in obedience to your conscience. Why do you insist that others share your opinion and follow your directions.

***not do the work of the evil one, as so much debate on this Religion Forum now does.***

Illustrate how I have done the work of the evil one here.

I have made a lot of Catholic friends, irritated a number of Mormons who pretend that their religion is compatible with Christianity when their own prophet was taught otherwise by a "personage" who appeared to him, and I have often been a generally moderate voice in some of the discussions on God's sovereignty. I have deliberately avoided some of the eschatology discussions because I do not think that they are the key issues.

So doc, you may have the right diagnosis... but you have the wrong patient. Mind if I seek a second opinion.

Still your friend.

I agree with you, and spent several weeks posting on the homosexual juggernaut here.

Results?

75% of FReepers who posted were indifferent towards or openly hostile to the traditional social conservative position against granting special rights to gays. The moderators and owners have let pro-homo SOBs run roughshod over the social conservatives trying to raise the same points you're raising here.

Some folks still function under the assumption that Free Republic is a "Conservative News Forum."

It is not.

The majority of posters here embrace Apatheism, not Conservatism.

You might as well not waste your breath on these folks here. Its been said, its been rejected by the average Apatheistic FReeper.

It seems there is no true conservative movement left in American politics. There sure as hell aren't many true conserevatives left here.
