If MacLaren had used a baited comment to catch someone he would have been verball hung from the nearest tree. All of us should be adult enough to engage in substantive and sometimes combative dialogue without resorting to “Inspector Gadget” tactics. Are we not all brothers, and if you believe that someone is not a believer that should all the more keep us from acting in a deceptive manner.

“Provide for things honestly in the sight of all men”. (Paul)

Let God’s Word speak for itself apart from our creative tactics.

I am still a bit lost in all this as to what Camp was trying to prove… other than he can be unsurprisingly immature.

What was his point… it seems a bit lost on me… at least with others I could see it was exposing that Ingrid did not post unfavorable posts against her… here all I read is Camp told some people he was going to post something that Tim was going to delete and then complain about it.

All I can say is so what? It is Tim’s blog, so he can delete what he wants.

Mostly what I see here is someone else (along with a growing number) are getting annoyed with Steve Camp and really do not care what he has to say.

Yes I see what you mean, I mean your church and Saddleback both have huge big screens. This is a sure sign of 3 things.

1. Heresy
2. The apocalypse
3. That there is a focus on nonessential and insignificant externals by you and Ken and Ingrid and Camp and… which I am mocking here which you call hypocrisy and the rest of us call nonsense.

Oh wait that #3 would be the difference between us.

So why don’t you?

j/k – excellent article, Brendt. It’s also a warning to us to avoid the same methods we criticize…
