Pay them no mind chaney. They don't really care whether you are convinced or not.

Neither do you. You just 'channel Dasa' all the time. And it's no more or less convincing when you do it than when he did it.

I realise there is little barb in there, but of course you prefer that to actually addressing a perfectly reasonable question.
And just what did you do?

Ministry does not seem to be part of your Christian vocabulary.

Too bad you enjoy making things personal all the time.

Thanks josephw.

Dive had his chance to get 'spiritual', but chose not to.

It seems he prefers to follow the lead of his 'other master'.

Everything in this forum is personal, opinions are personal, clashes are personal, friendships are personal, rivalries are personal, this thread is personal. There's nothing wrong with personal.

Maybe personal could be fine, but when the clashes and rivalries decline into the realm of ugly, angry feuds, I think it does more harm than good, and is far from anything spiritual.

That's a very nice platitude chaney3, but hardly one that is congruent with your behaviour since you have been here.

Are you willing to admit that your behavior, generally, is not that of a person who has been a Christian for 30 years?

I realize that, which is why I gave it a thumbs up. I didn't expect you to say yes.

I thought you would argue that you act like a really good Christian.

I've claimed to be anything other than a weak Christian since I've been here. I've stated it many times.
