How to be an Online Jerk!
Dogmatism is the comfortable intellectual framework of self-righteousness. Self-righteousness is more decadent than the worst sexual sin. ~ Dan Allender

Great points! But, I just don't see how it pertains to us. We never do that kind of stuff here.Canuckster1127 wrote:How to be an Online Jerk!

I think Frank must have been lurking at God & Science, before he wrote that. So Frank, if you're lurking, you nailed it!

One might call it "the art of trolling". I see it all the time on Facebook nowadays and it's kind of depressing, but then again there have always been trolls in one form or another throughout the millenia....

I must admit that sometimes I let my emotions get the better of me but I think I am getting better at it with practise.

1Tim1:15-17
Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever.Amen.

I've been guilty of many of the behaviors noted through the years. I think it's safe to say that most of us have. Being more self-aware helps to put a handle on it.
