Good Lord! It's just the Breeze soap box forum. I quit even viewing the site for weeks/months at a time thinking it might change. 
At one point the forum actually had discussion and debate. Now it's just post after post meant to ...well I'm not really sure.
There's no opinion, observation, or substance. Just drivel contrived from links broken wind found in his yahoo inbox.
It makes me appreciate even more the most staunch radical conservatives on the forum whom I disagree with completely but at least demonstrate they are living, breathing, and (this hurts to say) "thinking" humans.
At one point the topics were dynamic and engaging.
Chad - any chance you can discuss with the forum moderators about a policy that new forum topics containing a link must also be accompanied with some sort of comment? As it is now, it just seems these posts are just open ended and unending. I've seen this on some other forums I visit for this very reason. Most of these posts just look like spam. This wouldn't limit free speech - it would require it.

accept the Bible just as it is, for exactly what it claims to be. dont worry about the theories of the critics. the ingenious and impudent effort of modern criticism to undermine the historical reliability of the Bible will pass; and THE BIBLE itself will stand as the Light of the human race..

As a person that tries to lead a meaningful and deliberate existence, always looking for God's work in my daily life, you sure make me hate your weird brand of Christianity. Obviously it's one that requires no thinking and no action outside of the sanctuary of that little mind of yours. l'm sure you'll be first in line when they pass out the kool-aid.
Is it your goal to push people away from the faith by calling yourself Christian while demonstrating self-centeredness, judgement, and despising assistance for those in hardship unless it comes from the conditions of a Christian ministry?
The Taliban would be extremely proud of your tactics. Give yourself a pat on the back.

It has gotten pretty bad again lately. We'll toss around some ideas in the moderator forum and decide how to handle it.
In the meantime, if the topic was started by "The Breeze" and doesn't have many responses it's safe to ignore it and assume it's forwarded emails and other BS.

He's trolling... A true Christian would ascribe to the notion of comforting the afflicted, and afflicting the comfortable. Rush Limbaugh would hardly be an example of someone a Christian in Christ's footsteps would want to exemplify, but our Breeze blows his own way, something Jesus the Christ would have little time for...
