Ah yes. That one. But it has nothing to do with following a thread, it merely shows you've participated in it.

No idea about the two circles. Do you mean the little green one and the one with an S in it? The little green one is simply an indicator that you're logged in. Logging out causes it to go away till you next log in.

Then not a very relevant answer, eh?

In this case the article seemed to imply the start of Pentecostalism was founded by the two named men. And those referred to as the church fathers, yet no specific denomination or church was mentioned. It came across as these two are the Original church founders.

They are pretty much meaningless. This is the first time in years I've even seen this kind of subject come up. It doesn't change the way people view you, there's no advantage to having any certain amount. It's just decoration.

I learned a long time ago not to come here for much help. People like to call names and accuse and, in this case, encourage Christians Not to help someone over doctrinal differences. I've been slighted many times on this site before, yours only ranks as a 'nice try'. Though the irony of you...

I get that. I was specifically talking about the word usage among Christians now and if the term had a specific meaning when being said, or not.

As many as he Claims. The problem with WoF is it is all about ear tickling. Go to entire nations filled with broken, broken, starving, impoverished sick people and tell them "God wants you rich, God wants you health, all you have to do is ask and believe and God the genie will grant it. Masions...

When seeing this term does it typically stand for modern church? Denominational? Biblical? Is there a set use or is it a general term people use to fit into their narrative? It's nothing I ever really gave thought about until I saw an article referring to the churches founding fathers, as also...

If you're into WoF, you may think so.

Busiest subforums, easily #1 is BDF. It's also the worst. As of this time News, Misc and Singles are the next three, but that's not really saying much. Others come and go. YA not ever consistently very active. -signed member since 09

Mods don't read every post, so trying to make posts to communicate to them is pointless. Also mods don't take requests to edit/delete threads or posts except under very specific and limited conditions. Basically it's up to you to be sure of what you post before posting it, or use the 5 minute...

Actually, at least in the US and perhaps other westernized countries there is truth to this. It's well documented. There are certain physical features that have become the preference (I find most commonly in circles involving lots of younger, shallow people). And it's not an issue of physical...

I'm sure we're all aware this is a forum, and we're happy with that. People still chat here, though, so it works. There were chat rooms, but they've more or less disappeared over the years with no official response. A good rule of thumb is only responding to threads on the first page, to avoid...

Mods are volunteers who use their personal free time, when able, to help out the site. Therefore they are not sitting silently in threads all day. The cost of having mods actively monitor threads 24/7 would probably shut this site down. And no one wants to sit for hours, for free, monitoring all...

What social media sites? Where are all these various reports going to that is collecting and observing this? How are people being prevented from posting? Where is this "spike" being noted? How exactly are these things being "detered" from being said?

May want to reread my response. I didn't say they were the samw. I said "typo". Completely changes my point when you move things around to make me look wrong. All that long winded correction and you had to Change my words to justify it. The same way you did in the original same. Also I want to...

If you were bullied bad enough then not doing anything to actively recover and take active steps to heal, then it won't heal, it'll just continue repeating. And if bad enough it may have been traumatic to a degree, even if not PTSD. Also by not sharing at the time, to get help then, will only...

A person falls and breaks their hip. In time it heals, yet the rest of their life they're able to feel pain or discomfort as a result. Does that mean it's not healed? No. It means things can affect us after being healed, even. Forgiveness does not mean forgetting. Nor does it mean it never...
