But you ARE a heretic, Amy. You deny that fried chicken was used by the Early Church.

Yes, fried chicken is a modern day invention of legalistic Baptist churches (mostly in the South where all heretics go to hide). I'm surprised you found me out. :laugh:

No...but not all conflict is beneficial.

I would respectfully disagree. See, without dissent & conflict there can be no understanding. And without understanding, there is only wrong decisions. If you can first elicit dissent & then synthesise dissenting views into understanding ...then in the end you will enable consensus and commitment.

Here is another great song from the 60s by Joe South. It fits the majority of the nonsense on the Baptist Board that has nothing to do with telling the Gospel. This is for you KJVO, no dancers, no lottery tickets, Landmarkers, and other such associated nonsense.

Oh the games people play now
Every night and every day now
Never meaning what they say now
Never saying what they mean


And they wile away the hours
In their ivory towers
Till they're covered up with flowers
In the back of a black limousine


[Chorus:]
La-da da da da da da da
La-da da da da da de
Talking 'bout you and me
And the games people play


Oh we make one another cry
Break a heart then we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die
That the other was to blame


Neither one will give in
So we gaze at our eight by ten
Thinking 'bout the things that might have been
It's a dirty rotten shame


[Chorus]


People walking up to you
Singing glory hallelulia
And they're tryin to sock it to you
In the name of the Lord


They're gonna teach you how to meditate
Read your horoscope, cheat your faith
And further more to hell with hate
Come on and get on board


[Chorus]


Look around tell me what you see
What's happening to you and me
God grant me the serenity
To remember who I am


Cause you've given up your sanity
For your pride and your vanity
Turns you sad on humanity
And you don't give a da da da da da

No offense, but you sounded a little flat, plus you sing through your nose, too. Other than that, you should sign with RCA.

DFG, it's probably a need on the part of some for that special and personal recognition. We all like to be praised which is, as you know, a trait the evil one is quick to use it against us.

But that goes both ways.

Some people want to be praised for how humble they are.

Which is, of course, the OPPOSITE of humility.

Some people attack people for attacking people.

Which is, of course, hypocrisy.

And some people exalt themselves by talking about how people ought not exalt themselves... these are the ones you ought to watch out for!

The best thing to do is to stop acting appalled every time two Christians who love God go at it. Stop acting like they are wolves and tares, blah, blah, blah...

And realize that heated debate is a good thing- not an unChristian thing.

I've been on this board for 7 yrs and have gotten into some heated debates, been insulted, called names (including heretic, stupid woman, ect.), but I never, not once put anyone on ignore. If someone gets to me, I just back off. If you can't take the heat, get out of the forum! :laugh:
