Post #2. Why always them running the gauntlet?unno
NO. You can't always be criticised. We are gonna seriously warn the people who critisice the people you described in post #2. They are banned in fact. No more!!! But why should they be criticised?
If one has let it evolve into an argument, then one has allowed it to destroy fellowship. Let others hold to their convictions. Chances are, it comes from their church or their parents.

I didn't address that, so maybe you would like to. Try concentrating on sincerity.
