Deeper Waters Forum Guidelines

Notice The ministries featured in this section of TheologyWeb are guests of this site and in some cases not bargaining for the rough and tumble world of debate forums, though sometimes they are. Additionally, this area is frequented and highlighted for guests who also very often are not acclimated to debate fora. As such, the rules of conduct here will be more strict than in the general forum. This will be something within the discretion of the Moderators and the Ministry Representative, but we simply ask that you conduct yourselves in a manner considerate of the fact that these ministries are our invited guests. You can always feel free to start a related thread in general forum without such extra restrictions. Thank you.

Deeper Waters is founded on the belief that the Christian community has long been in the shallow end of Christianity while there are treasures of the deep waiting to be discovered. Too many in the shallow end are not prepared when they go out beyond those waters and are quickly devoured by sharks. We wish to aid Christians to equip them to navigate the deeper waters of the ocean of truth and come up with treasure in the end.

We also wish to give special aid to those often neglected, that is, the disabled community. This is especially so since our founders are both on the autism spectrum and have a special desire to reach those on that spectrum. While they are a special emphasis, we seek to help others with any disability realize that God can use them and that they are as the Psalmist says, fearfully and wonderfully made.

    Being bored and shamed for eternity is a punishment! It's just because you would not want to live in the New Jerusalem anyway. Too many Christians.
    If it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!

      50 lashes with a wet noodle, while being forced to use dial up forever and ever.

        Am I locked into a dark room, somewhere? Why would I be bored and shamed unless someone forced me to be bored and shamed? I reject Jesus-Yahweh, now and I am not bored and ashamed, so are you saying that Jesus will inflict boredom and shame upon me as a punishment? How long does this punishment last? A month? A year? Forever? is it fair to punish anyone eternally with any form of punishment that causes physical, psychological, or emotional pain for a finite crime?

        And what is my crime?

          Evasion.

          I am not trolling. I have been accused of something that I believe I have not done. Nick, Tabby, you, or BookWorm need to give a specific example or you are all guilty of bearing false witness.

            I already told you Gary. You're going to be forced to listen to Christian music, for all eternity since you think it, 'send(s) chills down the spine of every educated, rational person.'

            Keep asking stupid questions; you're going to keep getting stupid answers.

            • Gary still doesn't get the point. I say he ignores expert opinion because he does. I have provided numerous books and references in many fields and Gary never interacts with them. When it came to the Dark Ages, I showed him books as did Rogue that contradicted his position written by authorities in the field and he ignores them.

              Gary. You might not know this, but when reasonable people are given evidence against their position, they show that either the evidence is false, or it's misunderstood, or there is better contrary evidence, or they just ignore it and whine on.

              You choose the last path every single time.

              You're an anti-intellectual who wants to convince himself that we should take you seriously.

              We don't. You're outright hysterical.

                I'm not 'evading' at all my slow witted friend. You ask stupid questions, so I give you stupid answers. Hope you enjoy your dial up connection for all eternity.

                • Christian: And here are some books on the topic and some interviews on the topic that show data contrary to your position.

                  Gary: You don't know what you're talking about! I'm a man of reason!

                  Christian: Why did you ignore all the people we cited?

                  Gary: Show me where I ignore expert opinion!



                  You really can't make this stuff up.

                  I think I'll tell Allie we can cancel cable. We have Gary to keep us entertained.

                    We need to make our version of Dante's Inferno in the poop deck! Except not as nasty as the stuff in Dante's Inferno. More watching cutesy children's programming and listening to Christian music. And dial up. In a hut with dim bulbs. And some people might not get running water or electricity!

                        Exactly want you want. Eternity away from those annoying Christians and their God.

                          Actually it seems that you've locked yourself in a dark room.

                          I'm always still in trouble again

                            You're going to be forced to use dial up, while being beat with a wet noodle, while having nothing to listen to, but Christian music.

                            Although it is rather amusing to watch you accuse me of 'evasion' while this question rant of your is so you can avoid admitting you're wrong about your claims about the Middle Ages. More unintended irony, I see.

                                It's amazing that Gary who refuses to answer questions and deal with contrary data accuses everyone else of evasion.

                                Projection much?
