At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

RE: A Word of Suggestion
Rev, you got banned for copy and pasting bible spam, a perfectly legitimate reason. BTW I have seen atheists banned as well as theists on this forum, you aren't targeted based on your beliefs.

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

In advance.

Do you want to take out an insurance policy on that while you still can?

Well, barring being familiar with a person in real life, we can only go by what they choose to present here.

Has it been a week already?FSM Grin
Your banning took six votes, my friend. Six. The decision was unanimous and you my were most definitely not a victim of 'subjective mod descrimination.'

You were not banned for starting up a Bible study, you were banned per a user report for copy/pasting from an external site without acknowledgement or discussion. There was zero originality in your post whatsoever and we did give you plenty of time to respond to ours and members' requests for discussion. As a matter of fact you poignantly disregarded responses altogether and admitted that spamming us with your nonsense was all you wanted to do in the first place.We are not your shit and run target practice. If you want to have a Bible study with the members, fine! But don't spam. Show us you have some brains in that noggin. As to whether you are good for this forum or not(other than in your mind brain), that fact remains to be seen. So far you've repeatedly been admonished rightfully per our forum rules. Maybe you should go read the rules before you continue.

As for your "suggestion", well .. You did have the ability to contact me or any given mod oadmin at any given time, temp banned or not.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Here's the thing, Rev: you've been given plenty of warnings, far more than we usually give to people. And two temp bans is pretty rare too, so you can't characterize this as an unfair situation. Comparatively, we've been treating you with a soft touch.

And as for appealing your case, aside from the entire mod team being fully contactable, I'd like to point out that you probably still have my personal email address in your contacts list from the last temp ban you got.

I would like to know how I can contact monitors. I am not sure if the next time I get banned if I will be permanently terminated? Is there three strike rule? How come Chettu Dreaming didn't post anything on this thread? He has a red title and might wield executive power? He once took down my warning level from 25% to 0%.

In addition I do not feel it is fair that I get banned if I use a Bible verse or reference AIG to defend my arguments. One to me is infallible truth and the other is a reputable reference resource.

You say "soft touch" I feel like you guys punched me in the gut then kicked me while I was down. I forgive you all but I got hog-tied for a week and couldn't respond to some of your posts. I am going to move on from this and start posting again and hope I don't get zapped again. Censored
