On any message board members can offer their view of truth.
Sometimes tempers can flare up, it happens.
A person who gets over heated can delete his post and perhaps offer an apology.
No problem.
At the end of January,Jon C got involved in two or threee threads. The Calvinists chewed his posts up and offered correction.
JonC had a meltdown, and posted a post leveling 6 or 7 charges ath the Calvinists.
Several of the men were pastors, but as he melted down, he said they were all dishonest, untrustworthy, liars,ungodly and a few other things.
Okay...he got over heated, he blew off some steam and complained he was being ganged up on.
None of the non Cals supported JonC because his positions were defective.
It was late at night, i read the meltdown post 5 times.I asked two memnbers did they see or know what happened to the post.
I had to wait for them to answer the next day.
One of them said the whole thread was removed!
I asked JonC about it.
He denied the post existed at all.I said no, I read it five times
He made several accusations;
I made it up
He said I had a very vivid imagination,
He said i was on drugs and maybe having a emotional crisis????
look here from JonC. You have seen him insult me here, but here is one of his posts;

Anthony D,
First off, I am sorry for the drug comment. That was out of line and a knee jerk reaction to what I see as a very confused post.
I do not know what you are going through, either spiritually or emotionally. We do not know what other people are experiencing at any given time on these types of communication.
When my father-in-law was in his mid 60’s he somehow got it in his mind that someone had offended him 30 years prior. It was a delusion, and nothing could change his mind. In his 70’s he got it in his mind that dwarves were stealing his mail. These were delusions, but he didn’t have dementia or anything like that. He just had these two delusions. So I understand that these things are no laughing matter, at least not to the person experiencing the distress. I did not mean harm by my comment.
Sometimes people try to argue themselves into true belief. They latch on to a system of religion and defend it with all they have hoping it will somehow save them in the end.
In so doing they become irrationally argumentative and cult-like.
Sometimes people have a legitimate mental issue.
Sometimes people are undergoing emotional stresses.
Sometimes people are just having a bad day. Either way, as a Christian I need to try to help rather than exploit their situation.
HAHA, this is after he banned me several times for questioning him over this.
I don’t know your situation. Judging from your post, it seems to be some type of emotional situation.
My advice is that you not seek to remedy your problems on online forums but speak with a pastor or a Christian friend (in person).
Find someone with whom you can confide but who will also hold you accountable. Iron sharpens iron and we need one another.
Whatever you are going through, it is not with me (I have no idea what half of what you have written is supposed to mean). I will pray for you, and if you want with you, if that will help. But please find someone you can talk to in person.

So in this one instance we have him not admitting the post exists, but JonC making personal attacks to I am on drugs, to I am emotionally out of sorts.....Do you see the helpful comments he offers????
