Neither, this thread was started in good faith for what good memories ex's have from their 2x2 days. You guys decided to defile it. A sad situation, not normal 2x2 behaviour. Oh well Redback, I did but try. It only confirms what I already knew. You keep on with your lovely thoughts at the end of the day. Cheers and loads of love to you and your wife. Think of you often. The participatory format of things has a lot going for it compared to some other churches, and there are some very special and sincere people, and workers. I acknowledge these in other churches too. Many years ago we had Anne Sykes and her younger companion around for dinner. The younger one was a little bit mocking about our Maori Legends and beliefs. I mentioned that we needed to be careful, because Christians also believe in things that cannot be proven, and Anne to her credit, agreed. She also told me on the quiet that she would make sure her younger companion, and any other companion in the future would be more respectful in that regard. Full marks to her. My wife and I were practising for a Tangi on the local Marae for a well known Kaumatua. I can’t read music, so we had the stereo blasting out Whakaaria Mai, Hoki Mai, and Pokarekare Ana to jam with to bone up the skills, and Anne just loved it, and joined in with the Poi actions on Hoki Mai. Kia kaha Anne

Its just a girl in a swimsuit, show me a bible verse that forbids that?
Of course she wasn't swimming, but neither was Bathsheba. its hilarious that some downunders in the land of nude beaches would object to a bikini clad woman. Wally, Nathan and Dan all claim to be professing and attend meetings but think nothing of posting a scantily clothed woman in bikinis amd laugh about it, on the so called truth message board with exes on it. Great witness.....their role is to drive people as far away from meetings as possible. No morals, no conscience. Next they'll be condemning others to hell. Talk about doubled minded. Wait until dmm comes on and sees it !!

It was disrespectful to Guest8 who posted a thread to improve the standard of the board. Not in tune with 2x2 standards. Also disrespectful to Woman.
If you guys don't understand that, then all your Bible bashing has achieved nothing in your lives. It is more important to walk the walk, not talk the talk.
You would not try to be smart like that in a Fellowship Meeting, show the same respect here.

Can you believe Dan and Nathan call themselves Christian but support posts like this. Unbelievable. Even athiests who they condemn to hell have higher standards than them. you can have all the high standards you want, without God/Christ and the Holy Spirit they mean nothing....come on man... Even if that is so Wally - what happened to the fruits of the spirit. I see NONE! I see no evidence of Christ living in you.

Guest8 I really appreciated you starting this thread. I thought it might be a “coming together” subject. Of course there are many good things about the faith and many good people and it is very good to take a moment to appreciate this and share. It is shocking how the thread was defiled (and the scantily clad woman was only one instance of this). Totally disrespectful and frankly bizarre. I hope you will not be discouraged. Maybe some will see this and realize the absurdity of the whole thing and emblematic of systemic issues.

I always appreciate seeing a beautiful sunset across the city skyline from a roof top.
I had to tell this dumb girl to lay down because she was blocking the view... So inconsiderate! Dan your sexism is as blatantly unashamed and obvious as your racism.
...and the strange part is that your call yourself a Christian!
PS: By the way, - you have never mention having a wife.
Do you have a wife?

We are mature adults on this board and hopefully learned to treat others with respect. Dan, Nathan and Wally are not young. One would have thought they had matured and grown up. They are no credit to their church. You may not mind women being treated with disrespect but obviously time for some people to grow up.

Don't get your panty all twisted up in knot, lady. Nathan, "Lighten up!" -is always the term that people use to excuse their racist & sexist immoral and unethical behavior.
Your technique of attemptng to put the onus on the other person is very well known.
So, -just stuff it, Nathan.
You are only showing your own lack of understanding of what Jesus actually taught about how to treat other people.

You have just proved how much a hypocrite you are. One minute preaching hell fire and brimstone to those who don't believe as you do while the next minute you're supporting sexist posts. Wonder if the workers would support your post? Guess you'd call them and not to forget Jesus, hypocrites and Holy than thou too.

Somewhere out there, there’s a tree working very hard to produce oxygen so that you can breathe. I think you should go and apologize to it. Explain please.

well he could have posted scantily clad males or females. which would you prefer? Neither, this thread was started in good faith for what good memories ex's have from their 2x2 days. You guys decided to defile it. A sad situation, not normal 2x2 behaviour. i've yet to see few threads here that did not go OT at some point Dan is not a 2x2 as far as I know...nice try with the blame game though

I see NONE! I see no evidence of Christ living in you. that could be attributed to the spiritual blindness you've acquired since leaving the truth...
