Then you haven't been reading my posts.
I have read enough that I can see you are a hypocrite for saying...
Yep. That's why I voted no. Ironic that the solution to the race threads on BB is to segregate them to the "back of the bus" so to speak.
...and...

As I said before...
Don't talk to me about shutting down discussion. Don't talk to me about trying to seclude a member, when that is not the case at all.
I typically don't take part in the "race" threads and if I do, it's to register my dismay at yet another one of them.
Not true. Your response shows you are against confining racially contentious threads.
When it should actually be in favor of it...if in fact you are dismayed by them.
Something just doesn't add up there.
The argument that someone would be secluded is a lie. They would still have the same access to the board as they did before.
[Looks at thread title of thread started by you]
If you say so....
I say so.
Here is the thread title:
Should racial contention be secluded.
Apparently you do not feel it should be.
Apparently your brain translates this as "Should Zaac be secluded," lol.
This isn't just about Zaac, and that is why there is so much opposition.
And by the way, speaking of shutting down discussion, remember this:
Yep. Remember it well. You were attempting to have a discussion with Old Regular about the rapture and his repeated, and I mean REPEATED response was "Darbyism".
And the discussion was ended by you.
Thanks.
Do you think you helped me out? Do you think you helped Old Regular out?
What business is it of yours how long two antagonists want to go at it?
That was the reason for the thread "How many Resurrections in Revelation," to force Old Regular to discuss the actual Scriptures, as well as to point out that he will not.
So again, don't talk to me about shutting down conversation. Don't talk to me about someone feeling they can control others, or seclude them.
The charge of hypocrisy remains intact.
Yet you kept on taking a run at him, and he kept repeating "Darbyism". How many times you going to bang your head against the wall?
As long as I am here.
What's it to you? Apparently you feel only discussion suitable to you should go on.
And based on your vote...what you find suitable is all too clear.
Veterans of interacting with OR on this topic know it is futile.
So you think I am a rookie dealing with people like him? There's one on every forum. Sometimes many.
Again, in the future, your kind of help is not requested.
That's why I was anticipating the post count limit to be reached.
You were sticking your nose in where it didn't belong.
Not one post in the discussion but you decide the thread should be shut down.
Threads run thirty pages sometimes, there was no reason why that one could not have either.
Perhaps the content is what you found unsuitable. Perhaps you couldn't enter the conversation with reasonable directness in regards to the topic but wanted it shut down just like...
...Old Regular.
And that is the heart of the issue, is being able to have discussions without the disruption of other members that inevitably get the threads shut down.
You and OR have been shown to do that very thing.
And how many posts did you register in the discussion?
Only this one.
You hypocrite.
Don't talk to me about shutting down discussion. Don't talk to me about trying to seclude a member, when that is not the case at all.
You're going to need to show me where I implied you wanted to shut down discussion [laughs].
Just showed you.
You denying it? Not sure why, you just admitted to it.
You're fairly long-winded and you never stop.
That is my hope.
But what you don't understand in serious debate is that it begins with detailed responses but usually end with particular focus on certain points. Those points can be critical to the discussion, but to being them into focus sometimes we have to put some work into it.
Or in other words, "I'm just here to justify myself, and I feel I have done that."
You haven't, your hypocrisy is still evident in the public record. Best you can do is get the thread shut down and maybe it will slide into the pages of history with the rest of the threads.
God bless.
