What is with PA and escaped convicts lately? Is there something about PA Correctionals that makes them prone to them?

I think there are some people on lemmy who come here just to downvote everything, regardless of what it is.

If they don’t actually read/write Chinese, then it took more effort to do this than it would have to just write the letter in English as intended. It’s impressive.

The point is that this community is a place for Christians. Debate between Christians is fine as long as it is done with a good spirit, but there are other spaces for Christian–Non-Christian debates. Allowing such debates here will still turn into “a side [sic] for people to throw arguments at eachother [sic] with everyone already having decided what the outcome of the debate will be for them”. Human nature is human nature.

I have no problem with Christians posting “news that will put Christians in a very negative light” for informing fellow Christians and inviting discussion. In fact, I think it’s healthy to look at the good and the bad. I believe that Christianity needs a fresh wave of reformation. I used to frequent r/Reformed a lot, and it was there that I learned about a lot of church scandals because they were not afraid to discuss them. I’d like that same attitude to be here.

Mod here:

Please be aware that this is a community of Christians and for Christians. While you are welcome to ask sincere questions, this is not a place for Christians and non-Christians to debate. It certainly is not a place to come in swinging with accusations against Christianity as a whole and those who adhere to it. Consider this a warning.

If you would like to debate, feel free to start a DebateChristians community of your own. If you want to vent, there is already at least one exchristian community that would be more than happy to have you.

Welcome! While this community cannot replace church, I hope that it helps fill in the gaps.
