Yes.. the AUTHOR is the Holy Spirit.
Romans 2:29 A man is a Jew if he is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a man's praise is not from men, but from God.
2 Corinthians 3:3 You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.
That is right. I did not Google socialize . I searched Christian to get here.
What a shame this all is. A real blasted shame !

How do you know that?Well, I will tell you what is really irking me right now and that is the fact that Erwin was arranging all of this weeks ago. So, while we were all here like dummies debating on which direction this site should take, Erwin had already decided.

I never felt that this site really stuck to Biblical principles.
So I wonder how many of us will be leaving now?
this is f'ing stupid.
Because of the bloody name?
I see a lot of judging of Erwin's motives for the change. He was pushed into it by a group that didn't like the changes of 7/7/07. Like was said on another site: don't play chicken with Erwin.
Steve ...I want to commend Erwin for this change. Why? Because it is a needed step in accurately packaging what this site has become and is becoming. With this packaging new Christians and naive Christians will not think they are on a safe site spiritually. That is good given the changes of 7-7-7.
I do not commend the 7-7-7 changes. I believe that was when this site abandoned a biblical core (The Nicene Creed and a trinitarian concept of God as well as some foundational biblical standards of conduct) in favor of a WIKI-driven post modern mindset and authority structure.
Given THAT change (7-7-7) the change today only makes sense. I lays to rest Christian Forums (which had been deceased and was only awaiting a decent burial) and accurately describes what Erwin has decided this site is and will be.
Thus today is a step into accurate presentation. The new label is not the issue, the reforms of 7-7-7 are the issue.
I will likely do some apologetics here if the WIKI rules will allow any biblical truth to be presented. I will not view this as a fellowship site, even in the congregational bunkers.
I would ask Erwin to consider removing pre-teens from the site (Actually I suggest 16 or 18 as a minimum age). This place will get darker and I would not want to encourage young people to socially network here.
WIKI-on, Garth.

amazing isn't it.Well one thing is obvious from this thread!
The only supportive Staff voice is from one of our Non Christian Mods!
What does that tell us I wonder?
To quote one of the previous contributors who I think summed up this latest travesty so succinctly:
This Sucks!
What a shock. The way old Mods operated the pre-teens were at a bigger risk back then.
Yeah, there was a vote thread over the changes, and instead of going with the majorty rules side, he went with the other way.Well, I will tell you what is really irking me right now and that is the fact that Erwin was arranging all of this weeks ago.
