faith icons

[Open Heart]

I totally miss having the faith icons and other self identifying features. I was never one to complain about labels; labels help me know which vegetables are in the can. With the zillion of folks in the forums, there are many whom I don't really know or can't remember. The faith icons helped me have a handle on where they were coming from. Now I feel so lost....

Yes, knowing the vegetables in the can helps to understand the context of the post. Too many anti-Torah people post here to know what they are getting at.

I miss that too, but more than that I miss the who's online in the forum feature. I know they have one for the general site but we used to have the one who told us who was in our forum at the time. It's nice to know you aren't alone.

The faith icons will be used again; they are working on it

What about who's online in the specific forums?

 

[servant of Merciful Love]

I think it is a consideration.

I like those icons, too, but it goes counter to the purpose for having them when the member can choose some non-committal or generic icon that keeps his religious loyalties hidden so that he can post on forums where he's not supposed to.

I don't like how people get labelled as "anti" something by having an opinion.

People here have labelled me as anti-Paul, which cannot be further from the truth.

Similarly, I might be labelled as "anti-Torah" because I don't believe it was written by Moses or that Gentiles have any obligation to it.

That certainly doesn't make me anti-Torah. Why are such labels useful here? Why not use labels that are more accurate and less accusatory, if you choose to use labels?

Just curious....but why do you believe Torah was not written by Moses? Are you referring to the 613 commandments?

Are you posting that on the correct thread? It doesn't seem to relate to the use of Faith Icons, although it does sound like what's being discussed on another thread.

There are enough little discrepancies that might raise the question.

I like to refer to two things: (1) the word אז "at that time" with reference to the Canaanite clans, and (2) the name of the place where Abraham chased those who had kidnapped Lot.

What was the name of the northern city to which Abraham pursued those who had kidnapped Lot? At what point did that city receive its name - before or after the conquest narratives of Joshua?

I'll let you consider this one first.

Dan?....coincidence?

Perhaps the story was written after the 12 tribes existed. pursuing as far as Dan is stating how far Abraham pursued to the land of Dan...
