I want to add to the standard invitation above that I joined there and got a virtual dog that I named Peanut. I had got swamped at another site and forgot about poor Peanut to get him fed, one of the Pet rescuers Angel70 came to the rescue for Peanut and fed him two whole chickens, dog food, got him a pillow, gave him some milk, gave him a chew toy and some biscuits and took care of him for me while I was busy. I didn't even ask anyone to care for him, I just got busy and forgot about him but the rescuer took care of him and even gave me a Merry Christmas card!

I think that says a lot for the site and the people on that site. Actually the people make the site. The quality of a site is directly related to quality of the guests and members. I think that a site that cares enough and is willing enough to take care of your virtual pet for you while your away, ask nothing in return and wish you a Merry Christmas too is just icing on the cake...

I have their window open right now to get the link to place in this post here are the stats for this site right now they have 1801 users on line... most ever users on line---6,554

They let you have your own character. Dress it up with Gospel armor!

I've only made 7 posts at that site but the people I met on those threads were very nice people. Caring, helpful, Christian people even if our beliefs might be a little different. I've seen less conflict on this board then what I do on my own church forum. Our church forum seems to have the most problems, you'd think like minded in beliefs people could get together and not fight but it doesn't seem to work out that way.

Any thoughts or ideas on why a church splits apart after it gets so big. We have 500 members average at the forum. And every time it starts getting over 500 theres a big fight and several people get mad and leave and maybe start there own forum with people who agree with them.

The problem is they just can't part company in a civil let along Christian manner..... I have no idea why this happens but it happens over and over......

Anyone out there have any ideas on that. Suggestions on how to avoid that? The multi denominational forum gets along fine and has thousands and thousands of members....... how do they do that?

LOL Paul, I've been known to not have the way I believe accepted very well too at times. I belong to a forum that is just for people who all study with the same teacher. Shepard's Chapel. Even with everyone there studying with the same teacher there ends up being a lot of upsets on details and opinions. People get very passionate over politics and religion.


I do like that forum though and I have a virtual pet there so I go a couple times a day, he eats a lot.

 I have met some very nice people there.

As long as I leave the SDA Section well alone !!!
my Parents were into that, split the family;
I got OUT at 15 !.

When I was growing up my Mom would take me to church my Dad never went to church with us. My Mom and Dad were 44 when I was born so I don't know before that. I went every Sunday and Wed and was involved with the youth groups and everything the church had going on. Like you after I started growing up, I just lost interest. I never felt that they actually taught anything out of the Bible. It seemed like they spent most of the time just being social and never got around to teaching anything about  the Bible. I was 40 before I started watching SCN, it was the first time I ever heard the Bible taught verse by verse. Going verse by verse like that I started learning and understanding. My Mother had died a couple of years before that and I had a really hard time coping with that and started praying for understanding and answers to my questions about the Bible that I just couldn't understand on my own. I found out that a lot of what I had learned in church in my early years where just traditions and were not backed up by what the Bible actually said.

When I got a computer and got on line one of the first things I found was a Bible search engine, what a blessing to be able to search through the Bible and study with all the tools that are available on line. That has done a lot to help me with setting in my mind what I believe to be the right understanding that our Father wants me to go by. I'm comfortable and confident about my faith now.
