It is one thing to strongly and intensely disagree but it is quite another thing the way he goes about this; first and foremost his continual tactics of clearly breaking the rules by questioning others salvation which is abundantly clear to a multitude of members here concerning how he goes about this. I don’t believe one can be as clueless as he pretends to be on these issues.
His behavior is shameful regardless of the few who seem to enjoy his tactics and try to defend his actions so it can continue by attempting to throw Ad Hominems at me; these people simply share in his shame. But I am utterly fed up with his unethical methods and hope and pray the administration will finally come to recognize his unethical debate tactics and take the action to remove him from this board.
Personally, in the 6 years I have been here I have never felt it necessary to report a complaint or block someone from view. When I considered blocking him I started to wonder why I have should have to take such action to avoid being offended by the common tactics he continually uses on many others here; that doesn’t solve the problem of how he behaves here, then it seemed to me his actions are commonly recognized and the best course of action would be to bring this issue out in the open and see if some action against you might take place.
It seems clear to me he continually crosses the line of ethical debate (his tactics of questioning others salvation alone demonstrates this, as I have noted and taken issue with from within this very thread) and I strongly believe he should be held accountable these actions as it is detrimental toward trying to maintain an enjoyable peaceable atmosphere on this board.
And yes, I know I have the option to simply leave this board and that is also under consideration if this board continues to ignore this issue being it has been brought it to light.
Oh, you are quite correct, he always uses a very condescending tone toward others, and yes, he implies anyone who disagrees with him is lost. That is why I talk straight to him and call him a false teacher. He IS a false teacher.
He thinks he knows everything, many Calvinists do. They cannot see how illogical their doctrine is. I think it incredible that ANY person could believe this junk, it is so obviously not what scripture says, and it makes no sense whatsoever.
Don't let it get to you, there will always be false teachers out there.
