Club Adventist
Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

I did not say "new gay conspiracy theory forum". That wording implies that the forum is for gays only, or that it is about conspiracy theories involving homosexual organizations.

The phrase I used was: 'gay new "conspiracy theory" forum'. There's a big difference.

That means it's "gay", or "not cool at all", that there's a new forum, that no one can even see, where every topic is sent to, that is arbitrarily labeled delusional, or unfounded, by an administration that has no knowledge of current world events in relation to Bible prophecy.

And the implication is that every "conspiracy theory" is trash. But the Bible is full of conspiracy theories, most of which turned out to be true. Here are a few examples:

1. The published report said that Uriah died by accident, but Nathan had a "conspiracy theory", that the king formed a conspiracy to murder Joab, and that it was not an accident. This "conspiracy theory" brought justice, (2 Sam. 11 and 12).

2. The published report was that Naboth cursed the Lord and it was justice that he was put to death. But Elijah had a "conspiracy theory", that the whole thing was set up by a corrupt government in order to possess Naboth's vineyard, (1 Kings 21).

3. Mordecai had a "conspiracy theory". He believed that some men had formed a conspiracy to kill the king. He saved the king's life, and got himself in a position to help God's people. (Esther 2:21-23).

4. Mordecai had another "conspiracy theory" that Haman wanted to genocide the Jewish race. He exposed the conspiracy, and saved alot of lives, and the conspirators where brought to justice. (Esther 7-9).

5. The first conspiracy theory in the Bible, that I know of, was when Abraham believed there would be a conspiracy to kill him, to take his wife, (Gen. 12:12). It's not possible for a man to just come out and kill someone and say to the wife: "I just killed your husband. Will you marry me?" It would have had to been set up so the head of the conspiracy is not implicated in the murder, like how David had Uriah killed to take his wife. It was set up so no one would know that David had anything to do with it.

6. The first use of the root word for "conspiracy", is in Gen. 37:18

Gen. 37:18 And when they saw him afar off, even before he came near unto them, they conspired against him to slay him.

In this case, the published report was that an animal killed Joseph.

Gen. 37:33 And he knew it, and said, [It is] my son's coat; an evil beast hath devoured him; Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces.

The Bible shows that conspiracy theories have saved lives by preventing conspiracies from taking place, and have brought the real culprits, the conspirators, to justice.

But the conspirators often have alot of power, so they will say things like "Let us never tolerate outrageous conspiracy theories concerning ______________; malicious lies that attempt to shift the blame away from the terrorists, themselves, away from the guilty." And if he happens to be the ruler of the most powerful nation on earth, then alot of people will believe the guilty party is whoever he says it is, and will even ridicule anyone who wants to investigate matter, even investigation proves the published report to be all but impossible.

Funny. But again, that's not what I said. Such a statement actually sounds gay.

I can only imagine a gay person saying something like "That's so gay!"

And the term "gay" is a good adjective. ..... That's gay.....

In the Philippines the gay population is out of control. Many times higher than in the US. It's noting to with genetics. They just let it get out of hand. They have gays on the popular shows on TV, broadcasting their gay influence.

And I'm not going to change my language to be politically correct to accommodate gays. You will have to shoot me first.

Back to this domain issue, i discovered something funny. Both domains work the same on Firefox browser, but not on Maxthon, (IE based).

http://www.adventistforum.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/forums/103/1/Townhall.html
http://www.clubadventist.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/forums/103/1/Townhall.html

Try it. Hit both links in Firefox, and you see the exact same topics displayed.

Then hit both links on Internet Explorer, and you see some topics displayed, and some are not.

Isn't that weird?

Now, I want people to recognize that I am of a sound mind. I did not jump to the conclusion that this was something my enemies have done to me. I did an investigation into the matter, considering all possibilities. Therefore, let it be known, that I base my conclusions on facts, and not assumptions, or rumors.

And the term "gay" is a good adjective. It's like, a gang of gays will take you into a dark ally and rape you. That's gay.

Gay people will do everything they can to cause you to become gay, too. That's gay.

Believe me, I know. In my small hometown, Salina, Kansas, they have a park where gays go to seduce and recruit normal guys to become gay. ....
And I'm not going to change my language to be politically correct to accommodate gays. You will have to shoot me first.


No one here would ask you to be politically correct, but it would be good if you would be accurate, fair, and thoughtful about people.

What you say here is the same as if I would say straights, or heterosexuals take women into the a dark ally and rape them. Some gays may do the things you describe, in which case both accuracy and fairness require you to say "some gays." Otherwise you leave the impression that it's something that you can expect from most or all gays.

I have never used the phrase "that's gay" nor would I.

What you've given above is a stereotypical, not a realistic, view of gays.

It's certainly not true that gays will do anything to cause a straight person to become gay. There may be some gays who would do anything but again that hardly describes gay people per se.

Hey STan,

I don't want any resemblances of that word pointed toward me, k?

I am NOT happy...and I ain't a homosexual and I do have a couple of years of college...So, you don't need to go and start insultin' people around here...

...specifically me...
