You closed it! That would have been the most popular thread here. For our Gypsies.
The two of you highjacked JT's thread here, and turned it into you own little christian inquisition thread, with you, and the rev. WS dogging mininggold all over the place, questioning her religious beliefs, demanding to know if she was a 'christian' on countless posts, a whole string of them, just to, as you said stone, satisfy your curiosity?
Instead of telling your sidekick there, the rev. WhiteSands, to mind his own business, what did you say stone, you, this sites owner, did you protect mininggolds right to NOT be hound by that religious fanatic? NO! You did not!
"This would be easy to settle though. This isn't the inquisition and your answer is nothing but to satisfy a curiosity. mininggold are you a christian? Do you believe Jesus Christ spoke the truth when he said he is the ONE and ONLY way to God the father"?
At one point stone, you even said you were simply giving her the opportunity to clear it up. And whatever she said, you would accept. You had NO RIGHT to ask her, mininggold, or anyone else here, to clear up their religious beliefs to your satifaction. And there was one other disturbing thing you said stone..."I am simply enquiring if she (minggold) is a christain. If she isn't one. That doesn't mean she isn't unreachable.."
SO! If it turns out that mininggold isn't a christian, just what will you do to "reach" her? How far will you go?
I mean really stone, you should practice what you preach (no pun intended)! If you want the other's to stay on topic, call the christian witch hunt off, debating religious issues is not the same as demanding to know the religious affiliations of your members, and it is WAY OUT OF LINE! jmho~

If I am not mistaken mining said she was a christian in the past. I notice that she was afraid to answer. Not sure why.

I'm a christian first. A Forum operator much further down the latter.
I do have a right to ask anyone anything I want to.
Yep if she or someone else isn't a christian that doesn't mean they are unreachable. So what.
If someone wasn't a christian and the opportunity comes up to show them something or teach them something if they are open to it then I will do so.

I disagree. If someone is saying something about the Bible or Gods word. I for one want to know where they are coming from. To say I shouldn't ask them if they are a believer is ridiculous. I want to know if I should take them seriously on that subject. For example if they are not a christian I am probably going to discount what they tell me about what they think the Bible means.
