Chin Eng SG I am posting this here in EH even though there's something similar in Youth Christian Forum as it might be deleted before the sun rises all the way up. This note was written in response to YCF'S moderator huaqing's method of censorship. I am utterly disappointed on what had taken place in this forum. May I ask the moderator what he/she define a Christian as? If the stand that Catholics are NOT Christians, just by focussing on the differences, then may I ask how a Christian is to be defined: By the method of baptism? By the practices - speak in tongues, healing? By the style of singing - contemporary, liturgical? By the style of worship - freeflow, solemn? May I ask the moderator to clearly define these before embarking on a lunatical path of deleting threads that does not agree with his/her world view of Christianity. Note that not all churches disagree that Catholics are NOT Christians. May the moderator also comment on the other word in this forum - YOUTH! What is YOUTH: Young people (in age) Young in faith (spirituality) Young in heart (old folks like me who is still youthful in heart) I am too afraid to write because I would not like to be insulted by having my thread deleted. I am also too afraid to write anything because I am not sure why genre of topics will be deleted.
Chin Eng SG the moderator I am referring to is not an EH one. Youth Christian Forum's mode will indiscriminately delete as rubbish anything that does not agree with his/her world view. Go check out that forum's topic http://www.sgforums.com/?action=thread_display&thread_id=170343 dated 28 Dec, starting from a note from dumb2. how can anyone be a moderator of a forum but will not allow opposing views in it? for that matter, a supposedly Christian forum.
Chin Eng SG yeah, only in the morning, but regretfully, the forum is totally pointless. I was hoping for more substance among young Christians when I saw it came up a while back. so just wake up? from the battles at night?
M©+square SG No la...what battles. Glad to have Lau on the right track again. It'll be nice if we'll have a proper discussion the next round. Some sneak preview from my PM mailbox. And you gauge what is he made of. _______________________________________________ Originally posted by M©+square: You didn't even present your stand. You just said it's wrong.

fandango SG there are forum ethics that this young chap need to understand. but with regards to the topic that started the whole fiasco, he does have a point. Mary is Jesus's Mother, this does not equate to: Mary is God's Mother.
SingaporeMacross SG It would help if he did mention that. At least we can agree on something on disagree on. All he ever did ramble about was that Mary gave birth to Him but is not His mother. Huh? Ah.. the sh!t is going to hit the fan again..
laurence82 SG By the way, he is a PRC national too. If you look at this http://www.sgforums.com/?action=thread_display&thread_id=170436 he is not just defensive. This guy is acting like the PRC many people observe. Just dont patronise his forum and it will decay like thousands of other forums.
Chin Eng SG I think his exact words are: "dun try to post Catholic stuff here. Virgin Mary only gave birth to Jesus Christ. Who says she is Jesus' Mother? Damn trash lah... " Major contradiction within one sentence.
Chin Eng SG I suspected as much.... his profile states that Chengdu and Sichuan are among his interests..... Quite young too. 17 yrs?
Chin Eng SG about 17, according to his profile (which of course can be false info). Behaviour justifies the assumption - teenage overzealous-Christian mentality. Also totally lacking in focus - not sure which group he wants in his forum. Fandango is right. huaqing needs to learn some forum ethics. It is downright rude to delete someone elses post plus commenting that it is rubbish.
