as usual, i have had a couple posts removed because someone whined and complained.  there is an old saying that is quoted qiote often to those who feel unjustly spoken to:

'if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen'

it is unrealistic to expect to post whatever one wants andnot expect to receive comments on what one says.  as an example, my deleted comments were not insults but a direct commentary on the nature of perception of a couple unrealistic posts made by another member.

yet while complaining about my post, that member, along with another one, felt it was their right to post personal attacks on me.  such hypocrisy only shows that your words mean nothing (i did not complain about those two posts and others until i saw that mine were deleted for no honorable reason except the intended person had no sense of humor nor could handle the truth about how he is perceived).

if you cannot defend your position nor refute the challenges or if you cannot handle remarks made about how one is perceived then do not attack others, and do not  whine and complain when the heat is turned up.

getting heat is to be expected when one presents their views and others disagree with that position.  one should not expect their hand to be held or their heads patted by a moderator who says, 'poor little boy, i will take care of the big bad poster for you.'

grow up and learn to brush things aside or look to see where you might have erred instead of running andhiding behind the skirts of a moderator.  learn to defend your position credibly instead of resorting to pesoanl attacks and insults.

sinc ei have been back, i have not complained about one post(until today) which insulted or attacked me.  i defended my position which the offender then ran and hid, showing that their assaults were nothing more than that, an assault.  they had no proof, no evidence to back up their words and were looking for the easy way to stay with their position insteadof analyzing what has been said to make sure they were right.

all they have done is shown that they are not right and that they do not have anything to back up their position and if that is the case then-- shut up. because it isn't about what you say it is, it is about what you can prove and the northern supporters have failed miserably in that department.

dr. collins i ssupposed to be a professor of hermaneutics yet he has not shown one credible reason hermaneutically his restrictions or interpretation s are correct.  this is another glaring error in his claims.

i have shown that the passage does not agree with his assessment andhe has failed to provide anything credible or honest to show that he is right and i am wrong.  he can't because he is wrong.

notalent-- i am just tired of those who point the finger and another member's comments then turn around and make the exact same offenses they complain about.
