I don't really understand the, "this thread is stupid" comments, because, well, why bother posting that (the exception being to try and thwart "dozer's" endless onslaught of attention-seeking, of course )? It's sort of like those threads where people tell us all they're leaving. Again, why bother? Just leave.
Did Nori resign as a Mod?
A Spiritual man judges all things, so....get with it. Judge righteously. You should come down hard on the wicked and stop being friendly to them.
Paul says not to be friendly. He says to expose them.
You'll probably get a neg rep for that.Welllll.......but I love you!
But I feel called to witness with care to those who seem to hold some promise.
And I don't even mind reading a good insult, now and again! :chuckle: But there are a few real 'thread-killers' here, who apparently have nothing more to offer. I expect nothing will be done, as nothing ever has been. But for me, they really do minimize the value of this site, by a lot. That's all I'm saying.Don't let it worry you. There are often stupid threads where one comment may show a members disapproval, nothing more.

We have some neg rep queens on TOL! They treat any disagreement with them as a personal attack by stupid, unenlightened fools who do not understand the Bible.
And here I thought this was an open forum in which many views are encouraged so that not only is knowledge shared but the ability to challenge that which one finds problematic may be aired?
I have had my horizons stretched by people who are theologically much more knowledgeable than I. I don't always agree but my understanding has been enriched by them one way or the other.
I have been here many years now and I don't believe I have handed out more than 4 or 5 neg rep's in all that time.
Civil discourse may be had here with many of our enlightened, knowledgeable posters whose goal, it seems to me, is to spread the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ as He intended.
I gave you one, but you've deserved a lot more than that. Sometimes people get what they deserve for their bad behavior and sometimes they get less than they deserve. Amazing how that works out, isn't it? :think:
and here she is starting a thread to whine about how unfair it is :chuckle:

I do not care about neg reps one way or the other.

and yet, you started a thread to whine about it :think:
I didn't say it was unfair you dollop of doo-doo!
I say it is often misused in order to dog-pile on another poster just because one's little sensibilities have been pinched.
So did Lot, apparently, when he should have been an on-fire Jonah.
Dollop of doo-doo?
Someone should start a thread on these cool things that can slide through the profanity filter. Then we can just go there and pick an insult of choice. Maybe that's what this thread will become since it has no real basis in fact.
OK, so color me confused. Your name is no longer mod blue yet you still show a supermod tag. Are you still an active mod?
