This thread isn't limited to exposing the stupidity of any specific genre of Christian expression. I'm sure you could find videos of legalists, or grace-haters as you call them, doing unprofitable things. I'd love to see them. It's edifying to be able to learn from other people's mistakes.
This is one of the sickest statements I have seen you make. (And that is saying a lot!)
Do you notice that, although every one of us are sharp enough to locate videos that will make our opposition look bad.... We don't? And, trust me, they are out there, by the dozens. You won't even find much in the way of disparaging remarks made about your idols. Sure, we will express our disagreement, and maybe get a little overboard, but there is hardly ever a nasty remark made that is anywhere near to the filth you spread about Grace Preachers. Ever wonder about that? Those of us who believe in Grace don't have to wonder. We know why we try not to act that way.

What you said here just seems to indicate that you want open warfare between Christians posted online for all the world to watch.

I'm running low on bandwidth, so I'll have to watch it tomorrow. Here's a tip for you for future videos you post. click on the icon to the left of the the speech bubble (far right) in the format menu above, then paste your video link into the window and click OK. That way everyone can see what they're getting ready to watch.

Sometimes learning what to do is watching what not to do.

I do agree that some things are stupid to do or stupid to put on youtube.
We had people in church shaking all over and they scared people away who were interested, so in our church it's not allowed and they have to act normal, even if it is the Holy Spirit. If there are people in a prayer meeting who don't speak in tongues you may not pray in tongues. They think it's foolish and it's no use like Paul said.

You know, GodisSalvation started a great thread yesterday on the book of Mark. I and a few others have commented, including the OP.

Why do we have to have this sort of nonsense, when we could actually all be profitably studying the BIBLE together in the BIBLE Discussion Forum?

It seems like people would rather dwell on the foibles of those who are off track, than dwell on the Word of God, and what it teaches us about the gospel and Jesus.

I will always take a positive over a negative. And no, didn't look at the videos. I don't need that sort of thing playing over and over in my brain, when there are so many positive things to thing about.

"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things." Phil. 4:8

Meh, I just assume there are cranks and cooks in Christianity just like there are cranks and cooks in the secular world. Every. Single. Person. on this Earth is a little "weird", but some take it to a higher level. A person just has to be willing to look at multiple sources of info before making a decision about a group.

I don't label all Christians based on one single guy in a Jedi robe off his meds claiming to be Jesus or people speaking in gobbledygook and calling it praying. That's silly. Those are just odd ducks, and I know for certain there are a whole lot more good and decent Christians in the world than there are cranks and kooks.

That was a funny one.."Christianese"..I wonder how much of that we all do...lol
Yes I thought it's okay to mock myself LOL. I said such things on an atheist forum. I read it back and thought: oooooh noooooo how can you be so stupid?
Lol I told one Jewish atheist guy that I was praying for the fire of God to fall on Holland and he got so mad. He thought I was praying for real fire.
