I have not logged in to this site for simply ages. Today I logged in for curiosity sake and was greeted by this...
http://www3.christianforums.com/images/misc/latest-referral.png (http://christianforums.com/refer) Christianforums.com user Lucifer (http://christianforums.com/u94) just invited pentachristgram (http://christianforums.com/u209881) to join Christianforums.com!
Would any self respecting Jewish site permit me as a Christian to join them only to tote my own ideology on their site? Answer! NO!
What is it with you Christians? Is it small wonder then that Christianity finds itself in such chaos because we are too spineless to say the simple word NO to our affirmed enemies. “I’m sick at heart and it is bitter cold” – Hamlet Act I. It has indeed become bitter cold in this world where would be followers of Christ hold out their hand in comradeship and sup with the one who killed our Saviour.
Mods take note. You don’t have to ban me, I’m leaving of my own choice! Perhaps to join the Jews who at least know how to protect their faith! Let us complement them for that.

This is a good question, and since you posted it I assume you will return to at least see if there have been any responses.
What is it with you Christians? Where whould be followers of Christ hold out their hand in comradeship and sup with the one who killed our Savior?
If we did not hold out the hand of comradeship in order to sup with those who killed our Savior we would surely starve. Christ died for all of us, we were all enemies of Christ. We are commanded to go, share, and bring the Good News to those who are dying without Him. Christianity is not about keeping Him a secret, protecting Him from others, withholding Truth as if it could be harmed from those who do not know Him.
This is a great site, people know the name is Christian Forums and know that they will encounter Christians here. Some people come hurting and seeking and trying to grasp what is being moved in their hearts by the Holy Spirit. Others come in anger and arogance trying to distort Truth into something they can be comortable with. And surely the Evil One comes to steal Truth away but the fact that people come and the Holy Spirit draws them here is reason enough to engage with others one this site.
The fact is that Christianity is not danger. God's Truth does not change nor is it afraid of the darkness or debate or the lies of Satan. The Spirit chooses whom He chooses and engaging with non-believers is what Christians are called to do at all times.
I cannot speak about other sites and what they allow but it would seem to me that the only reason to fear debate and questions about faith is when we are not standing firm and know that we have the truth.

Sorry to be blunt but....:preach:
It was our (all mankind's sin) that killed Christ, not the Jews. Christ was descended from David, a Jew, his Father (God) was not only the God of the Jews, but our God. From the Cross, Christ prayed "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do". If Christ and God the Father can forgive their enemies, should we not do the same? We need to forgive everyone, Jew, Gentile, Christian , Pagan, Agnostic, Atheist and leave the Judgement up to God.
The ability to forgive is the foundation of our faith. Please start praying for that ability. There is NO forgiveness for us if we can not forgive others.
Forgiveness is your! Enjoy it, and share it.

MarkI might be wrong but I think she was referring to the infusion of satanic members and only using the Jews as an example of the pagans pushing their agenda. Although I actually not sure of what she really meant so that's just my take.

You may be right, and probably are. Such a reference to the Jews, I believe has no place here.
Forgive me, it just hit a trigger. I despise hatred of any kind, except hatred of sin.
