We've made a very important decision on our part, we believe, to include both Catholics and Eastern Orthodox here in the community as brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. (And rightfully so!)
Unfortunately, I am seeing a trend where some cannot handle this -- and this is an issue I see on both sides of the aisle, in terms of the Catholic and Protestant divide.
I expect a certain level of maturity here when someone disagrees with you. This means that you try your hardest not to insult them, and that you tread very carefully in how you treat a brother or sister who may (many times is) still redeemed by Jesus even though they may have some issues that they disagree with you on.
We are going to begin putting the hammer down on our denominational rule again:
If you cannot handle this simple requirement, then I kindly suggest that you move on. Truth does not require insults to ensure its effectiveness.
Thanks, ya'll.
