Ochaye in "does the book of Mormon..' thread
Ochaye is exhibiting troll-like behaviour in the "Does the Book of Mormon contradict the Bible" thread in Faith & Belief.
He's listed top of the number-of-posts list (96 posts) but appears to be averaging a sentence or two per post - which generally have a sincere-but-neverthelesstroll-like flavour eminating from them.
This latest twisting of things (w.r.t. his target, Bluejay), is fairly representitive of the reasons why people breathe a sigh of relief on arriving at EvC from other, wilder, debate sites.
-
Bluejay in the context of an original point writes:
If it was possible for Old Testament people to work their way to heaven, why is it not possible for us now?
Message 317
-
Ochaye, snipping/adding a couple of words from/to what Bluejay writes, suggests that Bluejay writes:
Old Testament people were able to work themselves to heaven.
In response to this rearranged rendition of Bluejay's..
Ochaye, interrogating his own twisted version of Bluejay's position writes:
Do you agree with that, or not?
Straight answer.
Message 319
Straight answer to a crooked question? God forbid Ochaye considers this helping 'the Lords work'.

Re: Polite Request
Seeing as it's suggestions and questions.
Can I suggest that yourself and RAZD don't discuss anymore (because you clearly have a bee in your bonnet about each other - according to one who only skims past your conflict.)
And the question? Why on earth haven't you figured to execute the above suggestion already? Yer both smart enough.
(I can recall only one real online fight in many thousands of posts on many forums. It weren't pretty and I was glad to be shot of it when it finally ended. Conduct unbecoming and all that . Best thing is to just drop it )

Re: Polite Request
A) But how else are we going to keep ourselves entertained on these long dark winter nights?
Dunno about you, but when I click on Straggler and see a "RAZD writes" box I click straight off.
B) Nobody has to read or participate if they don't want to. But the discussions in question seem to garner a lot of interest and some very good posts from numerous sources and all sides of the debate are often forthcoming.
Indeed. But all you two do, it seems to me, is fight.
C) I may well be irrationally deluded but I think (painfully) slow progres is being made.
Perhaps you can tell. Me? I just switch off.

Well I will take that as a compliment of sorts. And with regard to RAZD - I have never queried his intelligence. Just the veracity and validity of his arguments.
If ever he wanders down into Faith & Belief: Christianity - the unreasonablness of same" I'll let you know.
