SDA brothers and sisters,

What would you guys like as a name for the forum that would reflect the ideas of those that visit this area?

Yours in Christ,

It needs to reflect that it is a traditional place where SDA's can come and not be bashed by SDA's that do not believe in traditional SDA beliefs.

"Traditional SDA Forum"

Until we get one better I can live with that.

I agree Cliff, I like the name as it is. It's straightforward, meaning there's less chance of someone NOT realizing what this section is about.

I think the rules of the CF forum clearly state that no one should bash any individual. Posters are at liberty to bash other ideas in those forums reserved for such a purpose, but anyone who bashes another individual should be immediately reported.

maybe this new arrangement will eliminate the question, " Are you adventist?" That question might be replaced with, " this is not your place..." Or "This is not the place for you, what you want is down the hall to the right...":D

Ahem. ;)
This should be interesting, though. I like the concept. Since we can't do the right thing ... (sigh)
It's like going to a chuch and the usher asks, "Are you Progressive (ProAd) or Traditional (TradAd)?" Depending on your answer, she give you a specific bulletin and points you to the left or to the right. Yikes!!!!

Conservative is another possibility, since we have always been critical of the RCC dependence on "Tradition."

Or why not General Conference? That's what a lot of folks already use to distinguish.

I do agree, though, that traditional may not (after giving it some thought) be the word we would want to use, for the reason you point out.

Of course, General Conference is likely to give the false impression that the ideas stated in this forum are endorsed by the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists.

What about "Fundamental Belief Adventists"? That's what we're supporting that so many other Adventists seem to be arguing against, so it makes sense to me. We say we're traditional because we keep the 28 fundamental beliefs.

Just a thought.
As long as you get a name you feel comfortable with, but I don't recall anyone arguing against the Fundamental Beliefs.
