We have many wonderful people at Christian Writers and interesting new folks signing up with us all the time. However, a few have missed reading the posting guidelines, apparently, and I want to take time to review part of them here.
From the guidlines:
This is NOT a debate forum.
This is not a theological discussion forum. You may believe that you have a unique revelation from God. Don't use this as a forum to share it.
If you believe that you have a belief system or lifestyle that makes you "holier" than everyone else... keep it to yourself. We consider haughty, argument, and ultimately divisive behavior to be TROLLING and will deal with it as such. In other words, if you can't get along with the other kids, take your ball and go home.
One last thing... thread hijacking will not be tolerated. If you feel you must change the focus of the conversation, I suggest you learn to use the "Post New Thread" button. There is absolutely no reason to tack an unrelated question, comment, or reply onto somebody else's thread for the purpose of changing the direction of replies. It's a common courtesy, nothing more.
As always, any post or announcement Rebecca makes superceeds what is posted here.
Now, please fasten your seatbelts and return your table trays to an upright position...
*********
We are a family here, people get along quite well and we help each other. When that does not happen the goal of raising up Christian Writers is impaired. There has been debate going on in some threads, there has been arguing. There are countless other places on the web where you can do that, not here. If you have some 'great thing' to say that is divisive in nature, by all means, put it on your blog. People can argue with you there. It will not be tolerated here.
WG summed it up well: "If you can't play nice with the other kids, take your ball and go home." By all means. The rest of us have writing to do.
