I couldn't agree more. That is one of the primary reasons that my
number of posts has dropped.
A long time ago I asked John what his view of 2Tim 3:16 was.
Apparently, John no longer reads my posts. This, of course, is his
right, and I respect it.
BUT, I haven't seen anyone else directly ask John this question. If
they have, please point me to where. So far as I can tell, we have
been 'going round in circles' for weeks.
There is a time to be "nice" and a time to be "direct." I, for one,
would like to reach agreements. If my views change, great, I have
learned and grown. And, the more agreement the ASA has, the more
powerful we become. An organization never grew stronger by continually
beating around the bush. At a certain point, it becomes more valuable
to create new organizations, or at least new websites.
Hopefully, this is only a temporary irritation. I'm not going to "pull
out the Scripture verses" yet.
