My guess is you are more likely to get banned for attacking the moderators on a lot of forums. I'm not sure about here, but that's considered bad form on most forums, an some moderators ban for that or for trying to rally the forum against the moderators. I haven't faced that on anything I've moderated. But I've seen it on other forums. There is even a section for attacks against the forum.
I think the mods on this site have been great, they let honest debate go the way it should, up until now, not "the mods" but "a mod" or someone with the administrative right to ban, has banned someone and the only explanation was "teaching heresy", that could be said of either one of two in any debate.

I'm a sir. Young man, God commands singing only, why I really don't know, but that's his choice and he backs it up with a command to make sure we do accordingly by giving us these commands, Ephesians 5:19 and Colossians 3:16. Instruments were used in O.T. times and in heaven they speak of a harp, but the N.T. is what we are in right now, so this is what we need to go by. Some say these two verses do not imply commands for singing, so on goes the debate. I urge you to study and see for yourself what you think these verses mean.
I am pretty sure you name used to be pink Shava, because I thought you were a female. Anyway, these verses do not give any command except to praise God.

the fact that this still exists as an actual discussion/thread is depressing.
is it still an actual discussion?

The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.
