Could be. I did talk to him in chat and asked him to give me a reason to reduce the length. I am certainly open to suggestions and if you would like to reduce it as appropriate, please fell free to do so.

Re: Bible Word Of God Thread
IMHO the Off Topic notice should stand. If you think that you can support a Biblical Prophecy as having been fulfilled, then please just start yet another thread on it. Let's not clutter up a thread that is pretty much on topic with prophecy stuff.

Re: Too-long lines in Peppered Moths thread
I wonder what IE7 does with that line
Same thing.
Actually IE7 handles that one (246), More to follow.
Very strange. IE7 also shows the same problems in that message. Even if the paragraph is placed in a display:non div the problem persists

AdminBuz is clueless.
In Message 88 AdminBuz says:
Jar, one of the subjects of the OP are sacramentalism and the mass.
Confirmation, baptism and all the sacriments are on topic for this thread as per the OP. If Phat wishes to narrow the focus he may do so, but as it stands the topic perameters are quite wide. Carry on. If Admin or another uninvolved admin wishes to weigh in here to referee that might become necessary. In the meantime, please refrain from nitpicking on the topic issue.
That might be important if it had ANYTHING to do with what is happening.
Buz and NJ keep pointing to things that are not differences between Protestant and Roman Catholic Doctrine, but differences between some sub-sect of Protestantism and all of the rest of Christianity, Protestant AND Roman Catholic.
The topic is differences between Protestant and Roman Catholic Doctrine. Unless you can show something that is common to ALL Protestant sects, it is NOT Protestant Doctrine. So far in EVERY example I have shown that there are Protestant Churches that follow the same doctrine as the Roman Catholics.
Somebody needs to either help them read the OP or change the OP to be "differences between Fundy/Evangelical/Pentecostal Sects and the rest of Christianity, Protestant, Roman Catholic and Orthodox".

AdminBuz is still clueless.
AdminBuz says:
Jar, you are not the one to determine the OP of this thread. It has been shown that there are differences in some of the sacraments as well as mass in many non Catholic churches. I repeat, if Phat wishes to narrow the scope of this thread that is his perrogative. Carry on and again, please stop being nitpickey and disruptive here.
Dear AdminBuz;
Thank you for your recent post. But what the hell does "there are differences in some of the sacraments as well as mass in many non Catholic churches" have to do with the topic?
If you want the topic to be "there are differences in some of the sacraments as well as mass in many non Catholic churches" then I will agree. BUT that has NOTHING to do with Doctrine. Sure there are Fundy/Evangelical/Pentecostal Churches that differ. But they are NOT all that is Protestant and the differences between them and the fast body of Lutheran, Methodist, Episcopal, Presbyterian and Anglican Protestant Churches is as great or greater than the gulf between the vast body of Protestantism and the Roman Catholic Church.

Re: AdminBuz is still clueless.
As others here have pointed out, you are totally misstating the topic. I am NOT nitpicking but rather simply pointing out that every issue you or NJ or Phat has raised is NOT related to differences in Doctrine between Protestants and Roman Catholic Doctrine but on an ignorance and misunderstanding of Protestant and Roman Catholic Doctrine.
I have not attacked anyone, only their messages. If you consider it a pain in the butt when I point out where folk are simply wrong and provide absolute refutation of their position, I'm sorry. Stop posting absolutely false messages and off topic messages and I will stop pointing out that they are false and off topic.

Re: Dr. Adequate's 24 hour suspension for truth-telling
is that his job? To brow beat the theists into leaving?
jar is a theist, a Christian theist as a matter of fact. His job is to point out when Christians are simply resorting to meaningless platitudes.
I can't help it if folk seem unable to post messages that are relevant and on topic.

Re: jar
jar voluntarily gave up his admin status, iirc, because he was leaving the board in protest over something else. he seems to be back, and i don't especially recall all of the details as it was something in the private admin forum.
Not only voluntarily gave up Admin status but ran joyously from the club room. Being an Admin is a thankless and demanding job and doing it well is honestly, tough. There are so many things that go on behind the scenes to keep the board working that the general membership never sees. The Admins here and frankly at most boards do far more than one could reasonably expect.
When you have a dual position as member and also Admin it places extreme limits on what you can post. You are always having to second guess what you say as a member so that your Admin status is not seen as either an advantage or special position.
Now, as simply a member I have more latitude to speak without the encumbrances of Adminship. I am just another voice.
