There's just something utterly ironic to me about people who flip their noses at the guidelines of the forum but yet believe they are the chosen prophets who are here to tell us who God is and how to follow Him...
It's not as ironic as you'd think.

Prophets (legitimate ones in the bible) often had a habit of doing things that really irritated the status quo.


But not everyone who hears a voice is hearing the voice of God. Since we're told not to believe any contradictory gospels, anyone who proclaims another gospel is, in fact, hearing voices that are distinctly not of God.

You can almost hear Paul saying "you big dumb morons" at the end of this one.

4For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

Oh that's an easy one. Let's see, it goes something like this: "The forum powers-that-be are good people with good intentions but they are slightly misguided and they don't understand what I am trying to do."

Of course that is NOT assuming this is just a troll trying to cause trouble.

it does mostly fascinate me how much traffic these kinds of threads generate. i just can't even...

reminds me of how folks congregate to watch someone change the light bulb on a street light. ; p

Speaking of which, here's something to try next time you're in a busy city. Stand on a sidewalk and look up at a building. You will draw a crowd of people looking up to see what you are watching.

This is true. And then I have my partner go around and pickpocket everyone. :)

Ha! My uncle did something akin to this. I think he walked up some hill in Tennessee ─ nothing was up there ─ and he said to my family "watch this," and sure enough, other people's curiosity got the better of them.

A person is smart. People, on the other hand...

Good luck with that. I keep my wallet in my front pocket. I don't know who started the tradition of keeping it in the back pocket, but I think it was a pickpocket trying to make his job easier.

Silence is golden, they say. BeSilent would be really close to BePerfect. ;)
