Christianity 201 Guidelines

orthodox Christians only.

Discussion on matters of general mainstream evangelical Christian theology that do not fit within Theology 201. Have some spiritual gifts ceased today? Is the KJV the only viable translation for the church today? In what sense are the books of the bible inspired and what are those books? Church government? Modern day prophets and apostles?

This forum is primarily for Christians to discuss matters of Christian doctrine, and is not the area for debate between atheists (or those opposing orthodox Christianity) and Christians. Inquiring atheists (or sincere seekers/doubters/unorthodox) seeking only Christian participation and having demonstrated a manner that does not seek to undermine the orthodox Christian faith of others are also welcome, but must seek Moderator permission first. When defining “Christian” or "orthodox" for purposes of this section, we mean persons holding to the core essentials of the historic Christian faith such as the Trinity, the Creatorship of God, the virgin birth, the bodily resurrection of Christ, the atonement, the future bodily return of Christ, the future bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, and the final judgment. Persons not holding to these core doctrines are welcome to participate in the Comparative Religions section without restriction, in Theology 201 as regards to the nature of God and salvation with limited restrictions, and in Christology for issues surrounding the person of Christ and the Trinity. Atheists are welcome to discuss and debate these issues in the Apologetics 301 forum without such restrictions.

Additionally and rarely, there may be some topics or lines of discussion that within the Moderator's discretion fall so outside the bounds of mainstream orthodox doctrine (in general Christian circles or in the TheologyWeb community) or that deny certain core values that are the Christian convictions of forum leadership that may be more appropriately placed within Unorthodox Theology 201. NO personal offense should be taken by such discretionary decision for none is intended. While inerrancy is NOT considered a requirement for posting in this section, a general respect for the Bible text and a respect for the inerrantist position of others is requested.

The Tweb rules apply here like they do everywhere at Tweb, if you haven't read them, now would be a good time.

        "Stryper To Perform At Great Wedding Feast Of The Lamb"

        Source: Babylon Bee


        HEAVEN—The lineup for the fast-approaching Marriage Supper of the Lamb has just been announced, and Christian metal fans couldn’t be happier. In addition to the spectacle of the great multitude from many nations praising the eternal, living God for His great gift of salvation, ’80s hair metal band Stryper will reportedly be performing an opening set on the main stage.

          There's also a specifically Catholic satire news site, in case that's up your alley.
          Don't call it a comeback. It's a riposte.

              Woman Wielding Tolerance Chainsaw Accidentally Cuts Self

              tolerance-saw-696x392.jpg
              PORTLAND, OR—Campus Police for Leviathan State U were called to the scene of an altercation in the student union building late yesterday afternoon. A complaint has since been filed against a junior named Todd Barnes, an ag econ major, by officials in the Peace, Harmony, and Healing Offices, sources confirmed.

              Kube “Alice” McSweeny, a double major in womyns’ studies and performance art, also a junior, was reportedly walking through the student union with her new tolerance chainsaw, running it at full throttle. Most of the students in the student union simply responded with the appropriate “accepting” maneuver by disappearing down hallways, into classrooms, and some into inclusive bathrooms.

              Barnes, who grew up on a ranch, according to sources, disregarded the university policy for such events and attempted to instruct McSweeny, telling her that “you shouldn’t hold it like that.” McSweeny replied that she was of the sisterhood, and didn’t need any cowboys with belt buckles the size of paper plates to be telling her how to hold her tolerance chainsaw. Barnes noted that, speaking of the sisterhood, back on the ranch his father wouldn’t even let his sisters touch the chainsaws until they had gone through his safety course. The argument escalated from there.

              Sources confirmed that McSweeny then spotted a bench in the lobby that was a memorial to an earlier president of the university—a man from the heyday of the patriarchy—and decided to cut it in two as part of her day of performance art protest. Barnes tried to intervene again, warning her that “if you cut it down the middle like that it will bind and kick back.” McSweeny refused to listen and when the chainsaw kicked back, she was cut on her right shoulder. She is listed in stable condition at University Hospital.

              Update: The Office of Peace, Harmony, and Healing has recommended expulsion for Barnes, which the president has acted on immediately. When asked how they had conducted their investigation so quickly, a spokesman noted that they had twenty-five expulsions budgeted to their office at the beginning of the academic year, and that an investigation was not necessary.
