Deeper Waters Forum Guidelines

Notice – The ministries featured in this section of TheologyWeb are guests of this site and in some cases not bargaining for the rough and tumble world of debate forums, though sometimes they are. Additionally, this area is frequented and highlighted for guests who also very often are not acclimated to debate fora. As such, the rules of conduct here will be more strict than in the general forum. This will be something within the discretion of the Moderators and the Ministry Representative, but we simply ask that you conduct yourselves in a manner considerate of the fact that these ministries are our invited guests. You can always feel free to start a related thread in general forum without such extra restrictions. Thank you.

Deeper Waters is founded on the belief that the Christian community has long been in the shallow end of Christianity while there are treasures of the deep waiting to be discovered. Too many in the shallow end are not prepared when they go out beyond those waters and are quickly devoured by sharks. We wish to aid Christians to equip them to navigate the deeper waters of the ocean of truth and come up with treasure in the end.

We also wish to give special aid to those often neglected, that is, the disabled community. This is especially so since our founders are both on the autism spectrum and have a special desire to reach those on that spectrum. While they are a special emphasis, we seek to help others with any disability realize that God can use them and that they are as the Psalmist says, fearfully and wonderfully made.

  • Funimation. We Are Watching

    What treatment can we expect as Christians?

    Yeah, the ramifications of the Affidavit/Leak combo has really has turned into a No-Win situation for FUNimation. Last I checked, even the KickVic crowd is not amused with recent turn of events; they still think Vic had it coming (over spurious accusations and an ambiguous joke, in my opinion), but now some of them want FUNimation to really take out the trash.

      I have been watching FUNimation legally since at least 2011. Probably the biggest Dragon Ball fan here -- unless others want to claim that title.

        While I wouldn't be surprised that there might be notable exceptions, anime in general FWIS has never been very friendly toward Christianity, often portraying some bizarre twisted form though always corrupt[1].

        Still like a lot of it, but I know what to expect if it comes up.

              I think there already is one, but not on this issue with the leaks, though it will tie in.

                If they fired a guy for that kind of thing and then don't fire these guys? In the US, heck yeah, he's got grounds for a lawsuit.

                  He already had it in the works. Depositions have been heard to some extent.

                    Ah, gotcha.

                      Add in also that Goku is seen as a cartoon ambassador for Japan and Tokyo hosts the Olympics in 2020 and what did America just do to their representative?

                      Goku is to them what Superman is to us.

                        My boss texted me referring to a co-worker as "Goku". Would this mean he was referring to him as fast? (Because this guy is a very fast worker.)

                          I don't think so. I can't think of an anime character involved with speed. Goku is more a hard worker who keeps going and never quits.

                            Fixed it!

                            Seriously, I've watched very little DBZ but Goku struck me as more 'loveable and dumb'. Underdog rather than Superman. Maybe that's what he had in mind?
