Then simply allow someone else to post it. I'll do it if you like.


Did it produce any change of heart when Christ exposed the pharisees, if pharisees wouldn't listen to the King and Prophet, why would pharisees listen to an unlearned apostate?

I think it would be an interesting experiment to let stemelbow post the essay over there.

An interesting experiment in how many seconds it takes for stemmy to get perma-banned.

All the Best!

Well..whatever suits you.

I liked Cinepro's response on this thread, but it might be interesting if anyone over there would create a reveiw of the review of the review. Alright, even I admit I'm using the term "interesting" fairly loosely.

Sure. Folks like Consig want to paint those at MDDB as some sort of monsters. It would be interesting to see, I suppose.

I think it ridiculous to say Rollo is an "unlearned apostate" myself. But I'll let him comment. He'll take it in stride no doubt.

Most of us here have been banned from MDDB at one time or another (I was included in one of the first purges). The Mods at MDDB do not welcome open and honest debate. They've always been that way.

I don't consider myself an "apostate," but the folks at MDDB certainly think I am.
