Surviving the last days, will you be stockpiling for the end of the world?

Anyone can create a second (or third) account at any time. Although this is technically 'sock puppetry'.

 

The rules say that "Each person may only have one account."

When RK was summarily executed, I no longer had an account.

So I simply made up a new account, fulfilling the law that I could have only one account.

I'm not sure if I finally irritated the hypercalvinists to the point that they complained about me, but at least one mod over there already had a burn for RK 2.0 because, apparently, sarcasm and irony are not acceptable forms of human communication. I think it is because they don't understand it.

More than likely, someone over there thought they recognized the writing style and theology and came over here to see.

Several of my friends here figured it out easily enough.

Haven't decided if RK 3.0 is ready for his arrival or not. I'm thinking about him appearing as a bible-thumping, no wine drinking, fundamentalist.

 

I think of it as simply "Seekingification".

 

IP level bans are available but only effective against people with a fixed IP address. If your ISP allocates a dynamic IP address all you have to do is reboot your internet router and you're back on with version (n+1) of you. The writing style is more likely to be a giveaway.

Given - ahem - the current senior leadership there I've often been tempted to pop up as a seeker or a new Christian and ask all sorts of searching questions about places like IHOP, why they consider such repetitive drivel to count as worship of the one who more or less told us not to engage in repetitive drivel, and why they butcher Scripture to make it mean the exact opposite of what it actually says.

 

I'm usually in the cloud, so IP tracking is a bit sketchier, as I understand it.

Style is the issue. And the entertainment value is priceless.

Perhaps RK3.0 could be a woman. Then, writing would be easy.

You know...

 

You rang?

 

Wow. Talk about memories. That forum eventually led to the creation of Our Christian Forum, which was a haven for misfits. Me included.

 

Hypercalvinists? Just being a Calvinist over there I'm mostly (not completely) alone. The main one I know that you irked is very anti-Calvinist. But since you are a true Arminian, I often think you and I are closer to each other than we are to today's generic Evangelical. There's a small handful of plain ole Calvinists. I think I can count them on my fingers. I don't know of any I'd call hyper over there. Maybe you dug out people I've never noticed.

 

I'm wondering if he means the more rabid Calvinists that were active a couple months ago, rather than hyper-Calvinists which I understand as those who would essentially reject any evangelism efforts. I don't think those members fell into that category.

Over the years we had several TE's as well, but I think I'm the only openly one left there.

 

Yeah, what he said.

 

Either "tight end," "theistic evolutionist," or "terminally endearing."

 

Oooh! Oooh! Pick me! You could leave your gender unspecified, make references to your wife, and only later on post something that lets people know you're female.

Pass the popcorn...

 

Or a tight ended, terminally endearing theistic evolutionist who speaks total excrement in Latin.

 

Excrementus totalus.

Is that Latin or a really horrible thing to say at Hogwarts?

 

You might slip that one in when it's your turn to say grace but, er, people might notice...

 

I already forgot all about those guys. A different type of hyper. I prefer to see myself as an Evangelically ecumenical Calvinist. Everyone doesn't have to be a Calvinist. Evangelicals aren't my field to work.
