Post by Cross.eyed »

I respectively wish to inquire as to why I am banned from the politics and world events forum.
I am the wretch the song refers to.

If they had a social gospel in the days of the prodigal son, somebody would have given him a bed and a sandwich and he never would have gone home.

In the grand scheme of things, the Obama thread was quite civil. One of the more polite political threads we've had. :ewink: Unless I missed some new comments!

Isn't it ironic that in a forum based on discussion of religion, the moderators add a section for politics and then mention in the small print..."keep it civil..."

Not intended to be a dig, just a humorous thought...that being the old saying that says something to the effect, "If you want to remain friends or civil with someone, never discuss politics or religion."...I'm not sure of the exact wording.

:)

It will be interesting.

LOL. Yeah, I don't think you guys can handle discussions on politics. ;) So just made it so us moderators can access it.

Actually, permissions weren't carried across properly, however this should now be fixed. Figured we needed another forum to discuss such things.
