I like draft 2 because it allows other "Christians" to come in post and even debate, yet official Lutheran Doctrine is supremeBradford said:I move that this be sent to Erwin and AA for consideration.
Any further discussion?
DanHead said:One quick question regarding #5.
One may take this to mean that we should not say the Mormons, JW's, etc. are not Christian. They certianly are not, and I will say so if the question arises, in whatever form.
Since these are not recognized by CF as Christian, is this a non-issue, or should we address this by amending #5?
Proposed Change:
5) No posts that denigrate a Christian denomination or Christian group (as recognized by the rules governing CF) will be tolerated - these will be deleted and the poster will be warned.
One other question, in every instance in #3, does "Synod/Denomination" refer exclusively to "Lutheran Synod/Denomination", as the first sentense seems to indicate? Should the verbage reflect that, to eliminate confusion from such shallow minds as my own?
Other than that I like it.

The rules particular to this forum follow:
1) This forum is open to all Christians. Non-Christian members are not allowed to post here.
2) Non-Lutherans are reminded, that while their input is welcome and they are permitted to debate, they are not to denigrate, or be dis-respectful towards Lutheran doctrine. The guiding principle is this- "Dont make a mess in anothers home"
3) Discussions between various Lutheran Synods/Denominations is allowed. However, no attempt to present another Lutheran Synod/Denomination as non-Christian will be allowed. Respect and civility shall rule all discussions of differences of practice or belief between Lutheran Synods/Denominations
4) Only Lutheran Moderators, or other moderators that shall be from time-to-time properly assigned to this forum shall moderate posts in this forum.
5) No posts that denigrate a Christian denomination or Christian group (As recognized by rule #6 governing all of CF) will be tolerated - these will be deleted and the poster will be warned.
Basically, we do NOT allow accusations that a particular Christian denomination or group is non-Christian. That is the bottom line. Debates regarding doctrine is allowed. Accusations are not. Try to rephrase your question and post so that it does not come across as being judgmental and accusatory. You will find that the message gets across better, and the debate will remain civil.
6) Feel free to report posts that you believe have broken these rules to the moderators of this forum by clicking on the "Report" link at the bottom of each post. All reports will be reviewed.
7) These rules are in addition to the rules of CF that govern the board as a whole. All rules will be strictly enforced.
