Thanks. I don't know what all this "punctuation thing is about 'though.

This may seem a strangely basic issue to many, as they have this matter entrenched in their mind, but my background makes me unsure of things. I'll briefly elaborate, although at the moment, I'm not thinking as clearly as I otherwise would. I was not born into a Christian (or any other...

Thanks for your input. Now we're on the subject of places, may I ask - where in the World are you?

Sorry - I prematurely posted. I meant to say he seems to be a sincere person individual.

Have you "experienced" Matt Dillahunty? - via "The Atheist Experience", or other sources? tllhe impression he is very sincere

Thanks, all. Actually someone's responded that specifically the saved can't be influenced in this way. I was referring to people in general whether saved or unsaved, as this point has been brought up in discussions.

Thanks for your input.

OK. First - I'll say I feel somewhat on the spot here in as much as I feel my life choices and actions may be found less than optimally productive, but here goes. At home, I tend to use my I-pod for important reasons and frivolous ones. When I'm in town, among other things, I use the...

I'd be interested to read others' thoughts - whether biblically-based or not - on this issue.

I hope, 'though somewhat doubt, that this will be posted to the correct place and the correct individual. Is it THAT interesting to read that I go to different locations and use different devices at different times? If you REALLY care about this mystery, I'll elaborate.

Sorry - the post below Magenta's was meant for you.

Thanks for that - I'll bear that in mind for future (if any!) future posts (look what I've done to your text!). It's somehow reassuring to hear I'm not the only one this has happened to.

Thanks for your suggestion. I don't know if I'm missing your point, but I don't see how it would help, as I don't see how lessening my input in a given post would help to alleviate this problem, as neither my short or long posts exceed 10,000 characters.

PS - Although I phrased some of my response as question(s), I'm not expecting a response unless you'd like to make one. The crux of this is whether the situation's been resolved, which it apparently has.

Maybe readers/ responders could take any mistakes I make into account when responding. As for where I've posted - at the time, after many really frustrating tries, I was prepared to try ANYWHERE to get my message through, however un-"clearly defined" it was. As for your third point - I'm...
