An Open Letter On Posts -- For Those Of Other Beliefs

I Am So Sorry, WisdomSeeker! And I am Sorry,
Sue! My intention was not to criticize the move,
which I thought a good one and one I would have
also made as a moderator! I did see your post
there, Sue, and understood.

My intention in starting this thread was to get the
rest of us also involved in peace-making, myself
included -- myself by necessity!!

However, I admit that I really do not consider
myself a non-Baptist. I only declared myself
non-Baptist in order to allow those on the board
to recognize that SOME of my Baptist beliefs are,
indeed, different from the majority of Baptists
here, in that I am Torah-observant.

My synagogue has not changed; it remains begun
by a Baptist who was reared in a Baptist pastor's
home, educated in Baptist seminaries, who still is
called to teach special classes in local Baptist
seminaries, taught now by another man as well who
was reared in a Baptist home and educated in
Baptist a seminary. Everyone in my synagogue
knows it is a Baptist synagogue.

The fact is that I am more Baptist than Several who
call themselves Baptist but do not show the fruiits.


So obviously, my intention in starting this thread
was also to give myself a a chance for input -- to
give myself a voice on this disturbing issue.
