Re: Reconciliation
Hi Bob,
Your posts aren't addressing your topic about people mixing the Gospels together, which is fine, diversions are okay, but you're not responding to what people post either, and your replies read like mini-sermons of no relevance to the thread. A constructive discussion has to begin soon or I'll have to close this thread.

Re: Reconciliation
Hi Bob,
You're not making any sense to me nor to anyone else in this thread that I can tell. You treat replies as an opportunity to post a mini-sermon on random topics. I appreciate that you're trying, but I'm going to have to close the thread if this doesn't change within a day or two.
NoNukes posted the first response in this thread, asking the simple question, "Did Paul actually write any of the Gospels?" (Message 5) Your response never addressed the question. It would be a good demonstration of getting the thread back on track if you could answer that question now.

They simply regurgitate the blogs and posts that they wish the internet-at-large to read for some odd reason. I am losing patience with these people and unless they actually take the time to have a normal conversation with us that cannot be googled elsewhere, I vote to permanently ban them. Percy, if you see this, what do YOU think?
If Bob Bobber has been cut-n-pasting from other sites, no matter whether his own words, and if he's continued doing it in the face of nearly continuous objections from participants and a couple warnings from moderators, then this would explain why he's not making sense or responding to what was said. Some people just want their words on as many websites as possible, and perhaps he's one of them.
I've been leaning toward taking action soon. Maybe I would have posted a note to the thread asking participants if they wanted to continue trying to find common ground with Bob. Faith has been carrying a heavy load here, and only by reading Faith's posts have I been able to grasp some of what Bob has been trying to say.
Hopefully we welcome people of all points of view, but if they can't or won't express themselves coherently or engage in a back-and-forth dialog then board moderation has to take action. Bob Bobber seems on the road to an indefinite suspension, but we should see what he says and how he acts upon his return.
