A liar is someone who says something that is not true in a conscious effort to deceive someone else. The term "liar" is your interpretation because you have to assume that DaveH is purposely trying to deceive the rest of us. I'm not sure how you can actually know that, unless perhaps the Spirit of God has revealed it to you, or DaveH has admitted it to you in the past. As I pointed out in a previous post, I do NOT consider DaveH to be lying in this situation. While he might from time to time explain his Mormon perspective while being here, he does not appear to me to be here with the purpose of doing that. He is here to learn through dialectic like the rest of us. As for your calling him a liar, I do think that crosses the line concerning our ad hominem rule. Even if it is true and you feel that you must discuss it with him, you really should take it up privately with him. The real evidence that it has crossed the line is the effect it has had upon DaveH. Your conversation with him has degraded in the same way the conversations between Chris and Judy and Chris and Izzy have. The shift in focus has become on the people speaking and how they speak rather than the subject at hand. I had to change the subject line because your last post had nothing at all to do with your subject line, which was "Christian Perfection." Message to everyone: clean it up, folks. Let's talk about the issues and not the posters. Peace be with you. David Miller, Beverly Hills, Florida. p.s. I know, I know... I have broken the ad hominem rule too in this post by talking about how others post. :-) There is no way to moderate a list without speaking to the person, and so a moderator must be allowed to do that from time to time. I am no longer the moderator here, but I thought it prudent for me to step in at this time. I have great respect for Perry and am confident that he will hear what I'm saying and move on. If not, we will be talking in *Private* I hope! :-) ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
