I love the story were Elijah looks for God in the great things and then hears Him in the gentle winds. Reminds me to look for Him in the simple things

Whether "he gets away with more than anyone" is a matter of opinion.  Clearly,  he hasn't done anything against FC rules/policies or he wouldn't be here.  FC has provided an "ignore" button, if people refuse to use it it's no one's problem but their own.  
  
  I teased him about it because I was surprised he would chase down someone for a "multiple chirp post" after so patiently tolerating all the "call-out"/"beat-down" posts on him.  My post to him isn't against any FC rules/policies.  If people don't wish others to think they are hilarious in the forums then maybe they should act like they have some sense.

  I had saw what that member did in her "multiple chirp" post and thinking she was so funny "mocking" him.  I guess we should all turn our heads and act like THAT didn't happen?   She didn't like reaping what her actions sowed and I'm the one that is supposed to be sorry?  She started it, she got a taste of her own medicine and didn't like it.  Hopefully she's learned a lesson  about spamming in forums.  Falcon's reply to me on pg.1, he stated "this reply was not intended to rekindle an old 'flame'" which meant that even though I brought it up and he offered an explanation of the situation, he wasn't trying to "stir it up again".  So what's the point of following him in here, 'rekindling the flames' unless it was to 'keep the fire burning'?  

   To say "yet it seems it's fine for him to carry on about it"---he wasn't carrying on about it.  I teased him, he stated what his intentions for his reply was and we were done with it.  You and jj followed him in here and pratically turned this thread into another "beat down" on falcon thread.  And you expect me to back you on that?  I can't.  He had good reason to 'go after' "chirpy" and while the outcome was an unfortunate one, a person has to think before they act or the consequences of their actions may affect the innocent.

Now...BACK to favorite Bible stories.... :thumbsup:
I don't agree with what she did at all. But he came after her to give her a "dose" of her own medicine, and in doing so, caused a thread to derail.  So to you, that was okay?  The consequences of his actions, too, affected the innocent in that thread.  Yet, dare I come into a thread and say anything?  Especially when he went BACK in there "re-scolding" me like I'm a kid, and when the scolding applied to him, too?  What happened to your extreme fairness of looking at both sides?    

To answer your questions---

Nothing happened to my "extreme fairness at looking at both sides".  

I've NEVER believed that "two wrongs make a right".  

The FIRST FC forum rule is "Observe the golden rule, Treat others as you would like to be treated".  

If someone feels like going into a thread, mocking someone else and posting a ridiculous number of "chirps" then it's obviously because that is how that person WOULD LIKE to be treated by others---so falcon obliged.  Falcon didn't cause that thread to "de-rail", those that didn't have the sense to use their 'ignore' button DID.  The matter was between Falcon and the person that started her "chirpy" nonsense.  If you and the others had used the ignore button, things would have stayed that way.  

But it's more fun to simply "throw down the toys and run out of the thread crying" isn't it?  More drama that way, hmmm??? Chase falcon into a into a topic entitled "the Bible" where others are posting their favorite Bible stories and cause a disruption to simply "bash" him, you keep on trying to cause this thread to "de-rail" (the SAME thing you've accused him of already doing in a different thread), but it's supposed to be A-O.K. if you do it?  

Falcon has resorted to repeatedly using "beating a dead horse" icon, so apparently he "gets it".  Apparently you just wish to keep dragging this drama on and on and ON.  That isn't "right", it isn't "Christian-like" and I don't support the beating of dead horses (or live ones).  I do heartily support using the "ignore" button for those that insist on beating a dead horse "to death" though.

Whatever you want to think is fine.  I'm not going to argue.  He went into the thread he followed the chirper poster in, after the scolding, just to c/p the scolding to me, when I commented by to the chirper poster that it was not her fault he came into the blog thread to get back at her and de-rail the blog thread.  He followed me into another thread later and cut down a comment I said to someone who asked for prayer, and then again, later, c/p the scolding to me.  But, if that's okay in your eyes, fine.  He's accomplished what he wanted.  And I'm sure he's gloating over you taking up for him.  It's not worth it to continue arguing with someone who I thought was a friend and would look fairly at both sides.  Have a nice night, Sheryl.

O-kay, thanx for the 'guilt-trip'.  If he's that BIG of a problem, why is it so DIFFICULT to put him on "ignore"?   
I wasn't trying to put you on a guilt trip, Sheryl.  He seems to be able to get away with more than anyone I've ever seen since I joined.  And the only thing said is "put him on ignore."  When there are so many who are complaining about one person in particular, then that should say something about where a group/forum is heading. 


Exactly what I've been saying.I'll only add he's gotten away with more than anyone I've seen in any forum I've been in.Ever.

He's done the same thing to the Bible Verse Thread because he can't find it within himself to leave people of Faith alone. He's a diva who craves attention.Like I said before,if enough people stop responding to him,he'll have no one to play to.He's not going to stop harassing people and no one is going to stop him.

Indeed, not only has the FC moderator recommended use of the ignore button for those who don't wish to see certain posts, so have I.  Others will continue to see those posts since the ignore button only 'blinds' the one using it, (it does not censor the poster from all other eyes).  

Unfortunately, there is no 'completely ignore' button that prevents some from continuing to not ignore by way of repeated references andd remarks about the member they supposedly have blinded themselves to.

... the Bible Verse Thread because he can't find it within himself to leave people of Faith alone.

Why are such "people of faith", (religious adherents), under the mistaken impression that they are free to post religious beliefs and unsupported claims while others 'should be prohibited' somehow from posting dissenting viewpoints and challenging specious claims in an open forum?

He's a diva who craves attention.Like I said before,if enough people stop responding to him,he'll have no one to play to.

If that were accurate, why would I consistantly recommend that those who lack the courage of their convictions simply use the 'ignore' button, (something also recommended by the moderator)?  Like your numerous other acccusations, your latest one turns out to be fabricated as well.

He's not going to stop harassing people and no one is going to stop him.

Your repetition of that false accusation is not going to confer accuracy upon it.  If you're xtian, you're "bearing false witness".  If you're a 'pseudo-xtian, (mind-blinded fundie), you'll keep repeating the same falsehoods.  Your choice.

That's right, keep it going... keep trolling.  A "Bible Verse" thread has NOTHING to do with this one on "Bible stories". Now you've resorted to calling him names, telling others to stop responding to him---but 'he's the one causing ALL the trouble'.     ::)  GEEZ, with all that is going on in the world today, this is SUCH an issue!  ::)

I take it that your decision to partially blind yourself by using the ignore button tacitly means that no evidence to support your claim that "g-d DOES exist" will be forthcoming in the "Praise G-d" thread?

I guess you just don't "get it".This is a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black.The reason for the derailed thread is because Falcon has derailed this thread,the Bible verse thread and the Blog thread.Not to mention any prayer request thread.Yes even a PRAYER REQUEST THREAD. He continues to derail threads without consideration of the posters in those threads.If you want to keep on chanting "Poor Falcon...Poor Poor Falcon!" that's fine.It's your business.But it's clear to see the amount of people who are fed up with his childish behavior is growing daily.

This is the last I'm going to mention about Falcon,BTW,because this is exactly what he wants. To be the center of attention.I will continue to ignore him.I only find it upsetting to see how many other people he bothers on an ongoing basis.Well,if you don't put him on ignore,you'll just have to live with him,I suppose. :wave:

LOL, just in case you become VERY ANNOYING !

I can tell you I am not a priest or a pastor, but I believe in God and the Bible, If you choose not to believe that is your problem and I am glad you persist in asking for evidence.  But anyway, the bible teaches us Christians that not ALL will be saved, so I am thankful that there is someone out there to fulfill God's Plans.

This is a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black.

On the contrary, this is emphatically Not such a case at all.  The actual facts seem to be 'inconveniently' not supporting your continued false accusations.

The reason for the derailed thread is because Falcon has derailed this thread,the Bible verse thread and the Blog thread.

Conversely, the actual archived record of the sequence of posted exchanges do not support your false contentions.  Bummer, huh?

But it's clear to see the amount of people who are fed up with his childish behavior is growing daily.

The logical fallacy of an appeal to popularity, (which does not confer accuracy upon the contention), combined with a false characterization, (ad hominem/derrogatory remark), illuminates a completely different deduction.  That is, that "jedi-fundie" is "fed up" with his own inability to censor/suppress a viewpoint which dissents from his religious fundamentalism and is engaging in clearly childish behaviour instead, (while simultaneously falsely accusing another of doing so - now that's a "pot" attempting to "call a kettle black").

One can lead a horse to water however, if one holds the horse's head under, that horse will drown.
