Looks like everybody from BSDA is popping up over here, is the corvette color Atomic Orange Metallic Tintcoat or just plain Victory Red?

Welcome, I am beginning to understand.

Are you suggesting that they came here from BSDA or that they happen to be members of BSDA? In either case, how does this violate the rules of CF?

including one that isn't being honest about who he is.
Isn't that the idea behind screen names? Didn't you just say that you have a different name here than you have on BSDA? I don't think anyone here believes that my given name is sentipente.

I think she is trying to say that someone is recruiting members to ensure their vote goes a certain way... not a violation, but interesting....

yeah we were here for a while, and the initial split into subforums was because of our participation.... some felt then as they do now that we were not true adventists.... it is clear from all that has transpired that some continue to feel that way....

I am on God's side as I have tired of the devil and God has brought me back to Him even if I was kicking and screaming a bit.....
Well spoken, reds. I know we can depend on you to use your moral suasion to convince others that this is the only way to go.

Well, if black people have that much influence, isn't it about time?

Now I understand were the initial split came from, but as you can see there is not really a need for a divide, we all discuss and debate at BSDA and disagree but still care for each other at the end of the day, we have set aside the hate and racor for the most part and get along. Why cannot this be so here......

probably because at bsda, differences are tolerated without people accusing other people of not being "true adventists."

didn't you see what Speak Now said though, she said not all black people are progressive. So it seems she wants it to be known that she is not progressive and would like for things to be more traditional..... that's how I read her....

I quess because there is no such thing, every single person is accountable for what they do, not the church, and no one can say I am a "true adventist" thus I am saved. It means nothing, now if you say I am a "true believer" in the Lord Jesus Christ, eternal life is much closer......

(Which is what Night and his cronies have always wanted from the beginning).

Now this makes a whole lot of sense, doesn't it? I am pegged as the ringleader for a hostile takeover from the TSDA's when I am probably the only non-traditionalist who voted for a split forum. It seems it would be only common sense to assume that my vote should clearly show what I 'want' for this forum, but that appears too much to ask from some people.

My desire is not for a Progressive-dominated blended forum. My desire is for our own private forum and a Traditional private forum.

Since it seems the vote is for blended forums, this is all moot anyhow.

Or maybe the poll was invalid to start with. I don't even know what is what anymore.

Where has Tall been in all of this? He was the one who officially orchestrated Woob's poll in the first place.

This is why you need to pay more careful attention to what you think works in your favor. The poll did not require that those who have the SDA icon be regulars. It did not even require that they had visited the forum previously. You assumed wrongly.
