Unorthodox Theology 201 Guidelines

Theists only.

This forum area is primarily for persons who would identify themselves as Christians whether or not their theology is recognized within the mainstream or as orthodox though other theists may participate with moderator permission. Therefore those that would be restricted from posting in Christianity 201 due to a disagreement with the enumerated doctrines, ie the Trinity, the Creatorship of God, the virgin birth, the bodily resurrection of Christ, the atonement, the future bodily return of Christ, the future bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, and the final judgment may freely post here on any theological subject matter. In this case "unorthodox" is used in the strict sense of a person who denies what has been declared as universal essentials of the historic Christian faith. Examples would be adherents to Oneness, Full Preterists, Unitarian Universalist Christians, Gnostics, Liberal Christianity, Christian Science to name a few.

The second purpose will be for threads on subjects, which although the thread starter has no issue with the above doctrines, the subject matter is so very outside the bounds of normative Christian doctrine totally within the leadership's discretion that it is placed here. In so doing, no judgment or offense is intended to be placed on the belief of said person in the above-doctrines. In this case "unorthodox" is used in a much looser sense of "outside the norms" - Examples of such threads would be pro-polygamy, pro-drug use, proponents of gay Christian churches, proponents of abortion.

The third purpose is for persons who wish to have input from any and all who would claim the title of Christian even on subjects that would be considered "orthodox."

The philosophy behind this area was to recognize that there are persons who would identify themselves as Christian and thus seem out of place in the Comparative Religions Forum, but yet in keeping with our committment here to certain basic core Christian doctrines. Also, it allows threads to be started by those who would want to still be identified as Christian with a particular belief that while not denying an essential is of such a nature that the discussion on that issue belongs in this section or for threads by persons who wish such a non-restricted discussion.

    I'm really not. I think you're a nut and legalistic knowed-up Pharisee.

    I don't look you up.
    Yeah, I'll stay up all night worrying about that.

    I try to avoid you.
    Cool. But you have no right to try to tell me what to do.
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

      The problem is, you assume I'm like you and you accuse me of the same foul motives you would have if you were to do what I do. You only condemn yourself.
      Your hatred betrays your claim to be a follower of Christ. Can't you see this?

        WOW --- if THAT isn't a nutty assumption!

        Yeah, I know "I have studied and studied and studied and I have WAY more Bibles than you do, so I'm a WAY better Christian than you!"

        You're gonna be a lot of fun, Brother Dave.

          What definition of "antichrist" are we using? Are we using the general "antichrist" sense like in 1 John 2:22 where anyone who denies Jesus is God is the antichrist? Or the sense of the final Antichrist?

          If the former, that doesn't work because the Pope doesn't deny that Jesus is God. If the final Antichrist, given that the papacy has been around for so many centuries...

              1 - My assessment is that the beast, and THE antichrist are atheist.

              2 - People often identify themselves as being and doing the things they accuse others of.

                This is one of those "why did we need to resurrect this thread" cases.

                  My bad. I left a pack of these on my desk which disappeared (the pack not the desk)
