Black Christians : GROUND RULES - For Christianity Group Study

[Chevron Dove]

Sister Chevron ... i think i've seen them, and moved them to the main Spirituality Religion Forum.

If there are more, or you continue to have problems, let me know.

Much Love and Peace.

Thank you so much Sister Destee.

Sister Destee,

More than a suggestion, please find below a link to post # 11, which really seals the deal. When I first read your idea/suggestion, immediately I responded with agreement. I see it as a panacea of sorts to resolve the madness that crops up, intermittently, in these Sub-Forums; here is the link:

Yes, anyone posting to these sub forums, which are designed for real study of said religious beliefs, preferably of those of likemindedness, should review and sign off on the Ground Rules, as word or bond that no malicious attempt wil be made to obstruct the intented purpose...This step would also become grounds, in evidence, for violation of Rule #1 rule, Respect.

Ground Rules

Our initial purpose is collective spiritual and educational enlightenment.

We will undoubtedly engage in spirited discussion, but we will maintain that discussion with the highest regard and respect for each other.

No belief system is beyond analysis here, and personal assaults of any form are not welcome.

Should our momentum lead us towards it, we may embark on a secondary purpose of an anthology which syncretizes the work to take place here.

With the above purpose in mind, we will make a practice of completing whatever prayer/meditation/libation required to ensure our minds and spirit are aligned prior to posting.

From the collection of tremendous minds here, tremendous deeds can be accomplished.

Perhaps these rules should be reviewed by other non-Christian members before posting in the Christianity forum.

I have read and nowhere do the ground rules state that one must be a Christian to participate. Some people are using this forum to attack other faiths or belief systems under the cover of Christian study. This is disrespecting the beliefs of others some of whom may be Christians who do not agree with these misrepresentations.
