Ash Wednesday Posted March 17, 2005 Posted March 17, 2005 Jeez. That's really dorky. At least here people can become members regardless of religion (or lack of.)

We should all avoid making blanket statements. How many of us would be upest if the baptist said something about the scandals a few years ago representing all priests? Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.

Every group has a couple that give the rest a bad name. All people are welcomed here as long as they mind their manners. Many people here are former protestants.

Dennis Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 You may have touched some hearts of members over there at BaptistBoard, even if the admins threw you out. I've had bad experiences with fundamentalist board admins, yet gotten e-mails from some forum members supporting me and letting me know that others were seeing thru what the admins were trying to do. So, keep the faith! You may have done good over there that you'll never know of...
Mrs. Bro. Adam Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 I have a theory about the bannings at the BB. If you're not Catholic, and you even post once here on Phatmass, you get banned.
Matt Black Posted March 18, 2005 Author Posted March 18, 2005 Possible...although I'd been posting here for some weeks until I got banned there...unless the mods there only check in here every so often Yours in Christ Matt
Mrs. Bro. Adam Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 Eh...it'd been a few months for me. I didn't even know I was banned until Adam tried searching the site.

aloha918 Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 i tried to get there yesterday....they ask for religion and i obviously put roman catholic.....they wouldn't let me in!

[/quote] i wonder if you answered "Baptized Catholic" if that would work...it has enough of Bapist to maybe slip by?
Dudette Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 (edited) ok, earlier I visited their site...and I looked at the forum about..other religions...I was like... Edited March 18, 2005 by Dudette
Matt Black Posted March 18, 2005 Author Posted March 18, 2005 Doubt it; "Born-again Catholic" might have more of a result. Yours in Christ Matt
