Theology forum

By Roger Mugs

I don't know if this is an idea that can/will take off with the crowd that comes here but it's something I've been wanting to try for a while. I used to spend a lot of time over at macnn forums and have always wanted to have a place to discuss things of theology.

A blog is useful for a lot of things, and the comments are useful for replying, but when you really want to discuss something a forum is the place to do it.

I want this forum to be useful for discussing the things we otherwise just pass on by. Which is why I have gone ahead and posted something on tongues as the discussion has been circulating a bit.

I also want it to be used for people to ask "hey seen any good movies lately?" I think there is something about a forum which brings people together on the internet better than some other mediums.

That said, I don't know if this will take off, but I'd appreciate it if you head over to

forums.theologer.com

registered, and posted something controversial (at least to get us started). While the link is through my site, I would really like it if ya'll begin to treat it as your own (and maybe we can eventually change the name to something more generic). For example, I would be thrilled if a few of you would be willing to be administrators with me and keep things under raps etc... But mostly I just hope its useful, I would like the community, please come join me.

Thanks eh.

-Roger

    Hmm, I decided not to register for the moment. I've always used a nickname instead of my real name, not sure which I'd rather use.

    Hey guys! I've switched to the domain name: http://tcconnecting.net. I'll appreciate it very much if you guys can make the change.

    Thank you,
    TC

    Well, I was toying with the idea until today.

    Roger, resend that email.

    You want to "keep things under raps"? Is that why you chose Norelli as a moderator? Meanwhile I have registered and posted, but after this comment my post might be moderated into oblivion!

  9. Roger Mugs 5/10/2008 06:24:00 PM
    if you will notice on the blog (as soon as norelli gets around to posting) at dougs request he is officially an immoderator

    what more can I do? must i be held responsible for all the company I keep?
