If in the midst of a Buddhist gathering, be mindful and be respectful to the people amongst the Buddhist gathering.
Likewise, if in a Christian gathering, be mindful and respectful to the people in that gathering.
If striking a dissonant chord, be mindful and respectful to the people when articulating the differences. Be constructive, not dismissive. People are usually very tolerant if you show respect for them. Learn socially acceptable behavior.
Unless you are borderline or below average intelligence, people will hold you accountable.

Okok.... you are entitled to have your own view.. but wrong forum dey...
You are wasting many people's time here. I think you don't even bother to read or understand what the forummers are trying to say here...
Please go back to your christian forum thanks
deliberate attempts to disturb others' faith are very common to gather more support for one's beliefs....thinking that that may resurrect one to the heavens....
such deliberate manners already show one's unethical intentions

Why not just stick to the topic of the thread and ignore the noises? When you are on the road, your focus is on the purpose of the journey and the destination. There are noises, smoke and dirt but they should not detract you. Pay a little attention but no more.
An online forum is open to anyone - the knowledgeable as well as the ignorant. There will be differing views and opinions, contradictions and disagreements. Short of outright insults and vulgarities, one should not take any contrary views as 'disrespectful'. This word 'disrespect' has been abused in every forum or discussion and is a euphemism for disagreement. Just because someone disagrees, criticises, makes robust comments or presents his opinion or belief contrary to yours does not mean he is disrespectful.
Recognise that participants have motives or personal agenda, and it is not difficult to tell. If a non-Buddhist wants to participate and project his agenda, the appropriate respond is to offer ‘right understanding’. It is bigotry and parochial to suggest the person go elsewhere. I have seen such bigotry in Christian forums, so don’t commit their ‘sins’ in a Buddhist forum!

Think you seriously need to be warded in IMH . Just counselling cannot help much. Saw a psychiatrist, psychology programme, it mentioned about the kind of problem you have and the finding is there is damage in part of the brain.
You know you are going through problems and do not have a healthy mind, please spare christians and non christians the misery to produce posts which manifest your problems.
You never change even though you say you will discuss christianity not in buddhism forum, but you does it over and over again to post christianity stuff here.
Please respect people, respect others.

He is here with ulterior motive. He does not deserve any pity at all though he has some mental problems.

I don't quite agree with that response. Buddhists though are practising kindness and goodness of buddhism should just not let others step all over them. This Almond Cookies presently and in the past has been posting with ill intentions. A mature christian does not behave this way.
Almond Cookies don't disguise a "good" christian when you are Satan. Give peace to the people here.

A lot of misguided ppl in this forum.
Let’s pray together.
Shut the crap, respect them. Don't behave as if you are the world's only saviour. You yourself have serious mental problem is in no position to preach anything especially so you disguised yourself as christian, Satan.

Please do not impose your ill move of evanglism on me. You are a bad living example of christianity don't expect other christians to follow suit. I don't believe in attacking other people and their religions to preach to them. Think only satans will do that.

Then after hearing the gospel, he asked me we Islam also gt Gospel we call it INJIL. I think our gospel is correct. You will need to tell him ur Injil is fake one. Islam also gt second coming of Jesus, u gt to tell him theirs is fake one. This is not attacking but telling the truth.
Please, go Eternal Hope to discuss, you are sinning by invading this forum. Better still you go IMH>

So childish, talk like a child. I think your IQ is very low. YOU have displayed the patient with mental problem that is why IMH is the place for you. Don't use religion as an excuse.

Digressing as in very much off topic.....
Anyway,chill man! Have you realised that this thread has taken a character of it's own, very different from the original intentions with the changing of posts. It "lives" as long as it is fed with our reactions.
Even if we wish other readers to understand our intentions, each postings has taken a different interpretation according to the flavor the reader has imparted when reading and then replying.
From my point of view, I've never regarded him as mature. I see Almond Cookies as maladjusted, whether with ill intentions or not it does'nt matter.We can only be offended if we feel offended and felt threatened by his remarks!
He seemed unable to relate to relevance of his remarks in relation to subject at hand. Most of the time, we stray and break decorum or protocol, but he takes the cake!
Don't know if spelling S- L- O- W- L- Y help!!! Heh! Heh!
