Easy brother, it's not good to come in here accusing people like that. Especially without substantiating it.

I have no idea of what you may be referring to, at least with regard to any of the specifics.

I think this has already been covered. How do you feel about your own name being linked with some of those things? Do you feel your conduct was valid or do you feel you have nothing to apologise for? (This is an honest question, I'm not trying to be antagonistic here.)

I will make some general observations.

If you post something that clearly says something contrary to the Bible, are you saying you'd like us not to challenge it?

Shouldn't we make an attempt to judge each others words?

If not, why are we here?

I think you are well aware that's not what I'm saying.

I certainly hope with that last statement that you think we should all be allowed to interpret the Bible any way we see fit because that may work at school, work, the ballgame or even your local church, but it certainly won't work here. :o

You are aware I'm sure that TEs like myself do not just interpret the Bible 'any way we see fit'. What is disappointing is that very often YECs will not accept that we are at all sincere in our scholarship and treatment of scripture. Far too often we are regarded as having a low view of scripture. Perhaps because we do not agree with YECs in their interpretation of Genesis, or perhaps for some other reason, could you enlighten us?

No offense, but this is what it will take for you to heed the commandments of Jesus Christ? That is what the OP is about.

Don't take it the wrong way....

Too often, if TEs correct YECs or visa versa, we take it the wrong way.

I agree with a lot of what you said in the OP. What it will take for me to heed the commandments of Jesus Christ is to follow his commands and being receptive to the leading and guidance of the Holy Spirit.
