This is a discussion board. It is a place for discussion. Teaching sometimes occurs through such discussion but it is not the primary purpose of the forum.I am confused, is this a place for adventists to discuss things, or is it a place for adventists to teach?
If the former, anything that is respectful should be allowed doctrinally wise, if it is the latter, then some elders/etc should be moderators and delete anything that isn't official church position.

so this would not be acceptable
EGW is a false prophet - declaration of absolute fact
This would be acceptable
I believe EGW is a false prophet - statement of opinion
I think this is a good clairfication. Teaching is propagating the faith. discussion is examining and understanding the faith. big differenceThis is a discussion board. It is a place for discussion. Teaching sometimes occurs through such discussion but it is not the primary purpose of the forum.
Yes this is correct.so this would not be accptable
EGW is a false prophet - declarition of absloute fact
This would be acceptable
I believe EGW is a false prophet - statement of opinion
This certainly would be a more reasonable approach to the issue. However, you know just as well as I do that it usually doesn't work this way in here. Much of what she has said has been taken out of context. And I have seen certain people in here deliberately do things like this just to try to maintain their ground.
It is one thing to discuss things, and something entirely different towhat are you talking about??commit libel.
Furthermore, it is one thing to put up a post and sincerely question something that she has said,you read into things that are not there.but something else entirely to put up a thread for the purpose of creating conflict. I know of one person that appears to have stopped posting in here that did just that (sought to create conflict). In my opinion such actions constitute spamming, and should not be tolerated in here.
I think that any questioning is
oh my word. You did not just say that. what you are confessing is that you cannot handle an examination of the faith. Why? is it on shaky ground. If you can't handle question about EGW or the SDA faith for that matter then maybe you should not be here in the first place.Truth is, due to the highly sensitive nature of such topics, I think it would be best to leave them alone
