I believe you should judge any claims of a particular religious belief with some caution. I made the mistake, I should bear the consequences in a lack of trust by the people on this forum.
Which is what was done. But as a result, our question marks/suspicions were not well received by yourself or the others. Yet it turned out through evidence, we were indeed justified. As for the actual reasons? That's between yourself and God.
Perhaps you will remain on this forum afterall? Let's hope things can move forward.

I never claimed to resist the urge to provoke others or to retaliate in kind when provoked. Do you have an instance where I said I don't do those things?
I never claimed you did. It was your judgements of CTD and him as a Christian that caused me to question whether your own posts/provocations might be cause for some consideration?

Ok, At the time I honestly believed that I had not misrepresented my beliefs. I had forgotten my words to you in that post when I first came to the board. I apologize to you also for that.
Apology accepted. I had trouble believing there was any deliberate malice involved. But concerns/confusion? Yes. But again, I am not in a position to judge personal intent/circumstances. Only giving an opinion. I have struggled myself with my faith and with much conflict in my own life (past).

I won't even look for it. Why should I?
In regards to any of us misrepresenting our belief system? Probably because we haven't. Though one is welcome to prove otherwise if that has been demonstrated (if not by you, anybody else). It is only fair, if any of us have done so.

For the record, I apologize for the action I took early on in this forum. It caused confusion and has made open discussion more difficult.
A humble admission and thank you. I would like also to apologise for anything in the past I may have offended you with.
I would like to see things get back to discussions on the topics - and I'm sure you would too.
