Interesting list, including some sites of which I was not aware.

But how could you miss http://www.ssnet.org? Bible Study Guides are online, wich ability to click on your preferred Bible version. There is an associated email forum. This has been online longer than any of the sites you mentioned, except the http://www.whiteestate.org/

Then there is the very oldest SDA forum on the internet: http://www.sdanet.org. It's not always a friendly place for conservative Adventists, but it includes some very valuable discussion. In current discussions, look particularly for contributions by Leroy Moore. The AtIssue sub-directory has some valuable material, including whole books: http://www.sdanet.org/atissue

An excellent site to counter all the negative sites about Elle White on the internet:
http://www.ellengwhite.info/

There are others that don't impress me nearly as much, and here's one that claims to be the largest defense of Ellen White on the internet:
http://www.ellenwhitedefend.com/  (I haven't really checked this one out thoroughly.)

Another site that looks good in support of Ellen White is the one by Jud Lake:
http://ellenwhiteanswers.org/

Out of curiosity, is reddog a through-back to the cold war or does it have some other ethereal meaning?

I used to sell them but when I got the current male Chow 'Simba', he has such a loving and calm demeaner with a great personality and good instincts, that I gave away the last litters to all the neighbors in nearby farms and to friends. So now I go and visit the 'offspring' and the neighbors or friends at the same time, they even named theirs after the father so there are many  'Simba Jr.' or variations......

If you are on the list of banned you won't be hearing. Otherwise there is no fee to register. The fee is to be able to enter the private forums such as Natter Matters. This is for the slams,"sensitive issues" and the knock down-drag outs.

It does have a large membership in numbers, but regular posters number 30?? or less on a good day.

But it seems its only a temporary for 30 days, here below is what it said once I figured out how to get in with a different name, I must have logged in before using my regular 'reddogs' name and it ran out...

"30 days FREE then only $3.50 per month for FULL membership. Cancel at any time. "

Full membership means the ability to get into Natter Matters and the other private forums.

Club Adventists does extensive advertising or as much as donations allow. Probably does not need this type of passive advertising

Bonnie, I am sure he is quite an active member when he goes there. I knew someone over there also that raised 'red dogs' as well. Strange that the same type of name is on both forums. But, that is just me. I have quite a sharp mind when I want to use it. Lately, I use it quite often. The more information one can get and remember, the better off they really are. The better they can stand up and be proud of who they are.  :thumbsup: :rabbit:

This whole thing is getting downright silly, to say nothing of pathetic, IMO.
Registration on the other forum is pretty straight forward and not at all confusing as presented.  It is also pretty clear if you have been banned for a time or permanently, your registration will not be accepted. Of course you can register under another name which many do. Some have had up to ten different screen names, carrying on conversations with themselves. The straight forward approach always works the best anywhere.

Why anyone is so afraid to be known is beyond me. Even if it is under one fictitious screen name a poster becomes known for. To use a variety of names giving the impression of various people is more than suspect to me. I have noticed some here, registering under a different screen name, but step forward and say, My screen Name on another forum was such and such. Letting all know who they are and not presenting themselves as someone new.

It is well known that there is controversy and resentment towards adventtalk for allowing facts and opinions to be presented concerning 3ABN. Instead of all the subterfuge and pretense that the less than subtle jabs are taken in good clean fun, where is the backbone.

Instead of pretending ,Why not out with it,Put On Your Big Boy/Girl Pants. If an opinion is worth having, it is worth owning up to it. Quit pretending you are so horrified at what you have judged gossip and rumormongering" while doing same with less facts. Less facts than most here present to back up their opinion or statement .

If there is quality of content to a forum, it will grow without the malicious humor and the constant maliciousness brought up in numerous topics.

This  thread started I suspect for the sole reason of ending where it is at. A "passive" plug for C/A. Started by one, C/A introduced by same, questions on registering and suppossed confusion in doing so by same. Yet an admission that he was a member there and really should know.

What I find ironic is that here, C/A name can be brought up without fear of competition,yet on C/A if you even try to type in adventtalk,it changes it when you hit submit to ClubAdventist. You need to sperate the words to advent  talk.

So how about a little more direct approach. If you change screen names let it be known, do not use a different screen name and different set of values based on the forum you are on.


This is more than silly .If an opinion has any value whatsoever, Stand behind it. Otherwise this is nothing more than a game and your opinions have no more value than the time it takes to post
Title: Re: Adventist Forums and Websites
Post by: Lil Star on May 12, 2008, 12:11:52 PM
You know, I have a friend in real life that has a problem with doing just as you have described. Not only that but when you have done something this friend has always done something bigger, better or more outlandish than what I have done. Needless to say, I don't believe a word this friend says as far as things like that. Though, I know that if I need something, this friend is there to help me out.  :thumbsup: I would trust him with anything except for telling the truth about what this friend has or has not done with their life. When my friend describes their past history, I sum it up as hearsay. Once I've been lied to that is most all it takes for me to never trust them with anything other than a friendship. I do have other friends and family that I would trust with all my soul and even beyond. But that takes awhile before that happens. One must show the real, honest side of themselves before anything other than friendship occurs.

Sorry Bonnie......... gotta do it!!

This whole thing is getting downright silly, to say nothing of pathetic, IMO.
<snip>

It is well known that there is controversy and resentment towards adventtalk for allowing facts and opinions to be presented concerning 3ABN. Instead of all the subterfuge and pretense that the less than subtle jabs are taken in good clean fun, where is the backbone.

<snip>
What I find ironic is that here, C/A name can be brought up without fear of competition,yet on C/A if you even try to type in adventtalk,it changes it when you hit submit to ClubAdventist. You need to sperate the words to advent  talk.
Please tell me you're joking, Bonnie!! :praying:

A script that changes "AdventTalk" to "ClubAdventist" in a poster's message is worse than censorship. It is deceptive!! (A poster may not realize that his/her post was changed.)

No joke. I first became aware of advent talk thru a pm at C/A, except I couldn't quite figure it out.
The sender told me of a new forum that looked very promising. It had been up for a bit at that time.One that appeared to be without the conflict that is asscociated with C/A. But it read, "you need to check out the new forum ClubAdventist. Strange as I was already there.
So checked back with sender and she responded the same.  Between us in pm's we both kept "saying" clubadventist"
Finally figured out if we put a couple of spaces between advent--talk it would  read as written.

Dont' know, don't really care. If no one there cares, then why should I care. As long as this forum does not do that. I am fine with it. So far it doesn't seem to be doing that. I can type in other forum names without them being censored. I guess our fine admin team do not find any reason to censor any other forum on here.   :rabbit:

There is no question at all that it was as I said. Maybe what you have said about this friend is a wild tale and you are asking members here to accept as truth.. I have no doubt it is changed as of now. When did the change occur.
When I first mentioned it or a short time ago when it was brought up again?

As for your inuendo....

It really isn't very good manners to make statements like this.But glad to see you back and in good form

If the party on adventtalk wishes to acknowledge a pm I sent some time ago,long before it came up publically, they have my permission to do so. I notified a party that was the case.


Rather than have you carry such a negative image of me,possibly telling some wild tale, I have a suggestion.
This seemed to bother you for some reason so why not request your friend get a confirmation from Stan that what I said was true, or a denial and that I was telling a wild tale. That way we would know that your friend is not in the wild tale business.  There are others that know this to be true as well and depending on Stan's response it would all be straightened out

In re-reading this I don't think I am out of line to request proof or something more than "I have a friend" and then go on to blatantly insinuate what I said was a wild tale.

I did not insult this man and have had no contact with him, at least under this name to warrant this. Much of C/A conduct seems to be setting up membership rights here. Daryl is the one that decides membership and it is open,but many of us had hoped we had left this type of stuff behind.
There is no EXCUSE coming into this topic going from ,I do not know what is going on to wild tales etc

Dwight, please confirm from Stan if what I said was true or some wild tale. Not whether it is true today, but was it as I said it was previously. Then post it here, or maybe in forum concerns.

If Stan denies this was so at any time,then we can go from there to e-mails from others to see whether your out of the blue accusation, without proof ,will hold up.

Pm I received on C/A, name deleted. You can see clubadventist in quotes. One of the more well known decided to accuse me AGAIN thru pm there. He decided I was Patsy on adventtalk, but when he typed that in and hit submit it changed to clubadventist. I was not sure what he was talking about defending Bonnie because at the time I had never been to adventtalk. Then when I asked him what he was talking about me defending Bonnie on clubadventist he said I should check out a place called advent talk without the space. So, I checked it out, it seemed to me Patsy tried to give her a hard time most of the time. I asked him why he would think I was Patsy on clubadventist and it did it again.
 
There is more, and I will furnish the unedited version of this e-mail to the admin here if they want to.
"Knight" owes an apology for this stunt being pulled again and again. Or maybe just being removed would help keep the abuse down.
BTW, to the person that wrote this, when I defend Bonnie I do it in my regular user name.
 
 
 
 LOL. Now you are getting paranoid. No I am not Dan. Just be aware that I have MANY accounts. I have used them from time to time to talk to you and Bonnie but neither of you knows who I am.
 Oh by the way I know you are Patsy over on [clubadventist].com
 Only one person would defend Bonnie like that and who has a son in Oregon.
 
I was to trusting of people like you and Bonnie. I should have NEVER used my real name on this forum EVER or let it be known I worked for the church.

Quite a damning PM. Pity the person didn't get a life and find more to do with their time. I won't comment on the number of different personalities! :oops: Nor will I say more about you working for the Church, but I've just got one question?

I used to sell them but when I got the current male Chow 'Simba', he has such a loving and calm demeaner with a great personality and good instincts, that I gave away the last litters to all the neighbors in nearby farms and to friends. So now I go and visit the 'offspring' and the neighbors or friends at the same time, they even named theirs after the father so there are many  'Simba Jr.' or variations......


I know what you mean about Simba's loving and calm demeanor.  :amen:  When I was about 4 years old, my parents decided to try to breed Chows for some extra, desperately needed income.  Well, when I saw that little red Chow puppy jumping through the grass at his homeplace he reminded me of a cricket hopping around.  So we took 'Cricket' home and loved him for about 8 years. (He had some unbelievable Chinese name as a thorobred but he was 'Cricket' to us.) He was so good with my little brothers and other children who came to live in another house on our property, expecially a precious baby girl with blond hair and blue eyes.  Anyway, he would follow us to school every day and then go on a back route back home.  Being a Chow, he was not afraid of any other dogs but I suppose people thought he was mean or something.  Anyway, one day at the end of my eighth grade year, I came home the back way and found him shot to death.  I was so-o-o-o upset!  We think that it was a family who was generally unfriendly to most everybody else, but especially to us because of our last name and that we were SDA's (you know - DIFFERENT!), and they may just have had a rather daunting experience with Cricket from teasing him - he didn't suffer fools gladly - we never knew for sure, but that would have been their way of getting back at us for whatever 'reason' in their small minds. 

I still have a great love for Chows and would like Martha Stewart for that reason alone if not for her other admirable talents.  ;D  Unfortunately I live in a trailer park and we are not allowed pets over 20 pounds.  :'(

Wow!  What a beautiful dog.  I just want to hug him.  Mine was a wonderful orange-red color.  Maybe I'll tell you more at another time.  It was quite a saga.  My daughter has a chocolate colored Chow-Rotweiler mix and he is a darling too.  His name is GruffyBear and we all just love him a lot.  But, back on topic, huh?   :pals:

I haven't forgotten BSDA!  I never will.  My home away from home.  I am not here too much either.  I also visit CA and MSDAoline.  I even peek-a-boo other places too!  I will never forget your kindness to me either.

I LOVE BLACKSDA.COM AND CALVIN!

....and all of you left blacksda.com off the list, where all of you here have visted/or are members, go figure.  Over 250,000 posts in five years makes BSDA the most active Adventist forum on the Internet.  First Adventist forum to have a chat room and shoutbox, which Stan and Daryl soon followed.  First to do interviews, which Stan followed.  First to allow open discussion on 3ABN, which Daryl followed with Adventtalk.  Most extensive set of smilies and avators to select from and a 300 game arcade in case you had not noticed.

Calvie Baby (don't be offended. That's a pet name for my s-i-l too). I didn't notice they left out Black SDA coz I didn't even read what had been posted. Some just make up stuff to post, it seems to be noticed, and I don't bother reading them. It needs to have 'meat' in it for me to read!

Black SDA is a very special place for me too.

I frequent BSDA too - and I had not read the list here so did not notice, like Ozzie, that Calvin's creation was missing.

And the Arcade is GREAT!!

Well if they believed in the Adventist message I would have added them, but sadly that is not the case as Clay, the administrative group under him and others have made quite clear...

They have fought against and attacked anyone that comes in to the BSDA forum with any belief in Adventism, they have made it clear in their statements that they do not accept Ellen G White or the Spirit of Prophecy or the message given to the the SDA church for the end times, they do not believe in the teaching of the Heavenly Sanctuary, or Pre-Advent Judgement, they feel the seventh day Sabbath is no longer important, they are against the Three Angels' Messages (exposing the papacy, Babylon, ecumenism, explaining the Sabbath-Sunday-question, exalting the law of God, etc.), they have made it clear that they do not believe that the SDA church is the church of the Remnant, they reject what they call the 'imposition of the 28 fundimental beliefs' upon them, they do not accept that 1844 was a key point in prophecy and that the Advent movement that arose out of it was relevant and have repeated their views even at other sites. In short, they do not believe in Adventism and fight against it with every weapon, strategy and tactic on that website, and at the Christianforums.com website, so I am quite familiar with their purpose and beliefs.....


Clay and I have gone over this quite extensively, so if any question on it, please feel free to discuss it with Clay...

reddogs, Clay is a vitally important member and the Grand Pooh Bah (Emeritus) of a not-so-secret society at BlackSDA.com,  but he is not the owner.  Calvin is the owner of BlackSDA.com and is confident enough in his own faith to allow his members to have their own views on theology, religion, faith and the denomination in general.

Calvin knows what is going on and from my contact with him I would say appears to completely support it.....

Clay or 'Stormyone' as he is known in Christianforums.com has for many years made clear his position on Adventism....

He clearly rejects the Spirit of Prophecy and the pillars of truth of the SDA church, if you have any doubt check out a few of his postings below from the Christianforums.com site as the BSDA site drops out after a few pages so I dont have access to the relevant ones there, thus many Adventist come into BSDA not knowing what the Clay/administrative group truly believe as the threads are gone....

Plus I personally and others have discussed it with Clay/Stormyone extensively and he has left us with no doubt on these issues.

As I said, if you doubt it, ask Clay directly if he accepts Ellen G. White and the 28 Fundimental Beliefs, that will leave you with no doubt on the matter...

It would appear that reddogs does not share that same confidence in his faith.  I'm guessing that Calvin and company are devastated at reddogs charges.  Moving on...

The other forum you hang out at has a wide diversity of beliefs. I have never seen you express concern over that.
There are those SDA's that believe it is alright to drink alcohol socially,EW was a nice lady that was delusional, she is not a prophet but a good writer,some of what she says has value and then skip over the part you disagree with etc.

Can you explain the difference as you included C/A in the list of websites I believe

I dont think he cares about what I have to say, but go to the source, ask Clay/Stormyone...I have no doubt he will share his opinions...

Do you leave out a forum such as BSDA because some of the members do not follow the standard SDA line?  I have found the general tenor of that site to be SDA oriented.

If the site or administration purpose or basis is Former-Adventist, Ex-Adventist or Anti-Adventist site, I would not generaly add them to the list... (i.e. www.ellenwhiteexposed.com)


Discussing and debating Adventism is one thing, but if the site is against Adventism I would not want to direct the average newbie or Adventist to it and for good reason. After many threads in BSDA which made clear their veiwpoint, I finally asked in seperate threads if anyone in BSDA believed in the 28 Fundimentals or accepted the Spirit of Prophecy and Ellen White, and the response from the members was not in the affirmative....

Because of the rejection of basic Adventist beliefs and views by Clay/Stormyone and others, the Adventist section at Christianforums was thrown into turmoil and had to be divided into Progressive/Moderate/Former Adventists group and a regular Adventist, which basically tore apart many members as they had to choose one or the other. Talk about a literal 'shaking' out, we went throught it.....

Despite it all, I consider Clay/Stormyone a good friend, but as I believe in the Adventist truths, we just have to take seperate paths till the Holy Spirit brings us into all truth and I hope to see him there....

Seems to me that you've set yourself up as judge and jury as to who is Adventist and who is not, but I guess we've seen quite a few of your ilk, who make their own decision on who is Adventist and who is not. So sad to see people who will try to lock other Adventists out of their midst, "because they don't measure up to their own personal standards". :scratch:

Trouble is, that there are many people missing from our pews because of such judgemental attitudes.

I still have a great love for Chows and would like Martha Stewart for that reason alone if not for her other admirable talents.  ;D  Unfortunately I live in a trailer park and we are not allowed pets over 20 pounds.  :'(
GrammieT   :dogwag:

Interesting that you should mention Martha Stewart. She happens to be visiting Iceland these days, if she hasn't left. Martha Stewart came here to visit the wife of the president of Iceland who is a good friend of hers. A couple of days ago they went to have some food at a restaurant not far from where we live. The president went along, and their "private" trip was caught by a newspaper reporter.

A member of the Icelandic parliament protested in his blog that the president lets himself be seen together with Martha Stewart because she apparently was caught in an inappropriate business deal a few years back.

Now this politician is under heave attack by other bloggers calling him narrow minded. Some state that Martha Sttewart was really innocent, others think it was well done of the president to accompany is wife and her visitor.

I do not judge Clay/Stormyone as he knows I think of him as a brother in Christ and talk long and hard with him on these truths, it is from his own posts and threads and many one on one discussions, and you can ask him to verify his views on Adventism and against the Spirit of Prophecy if you want, as we have seen from his many posts but you are free to verify it for yourself...


What are we to do if someone goes against the truth, how do we handle it by ignoring it and letting them fall into error, I think not....

19My brothers, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring him back, 20remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save him from death and cover over a multitude of sins. James 5:19-20

If I wander from the truth I would hope and pray my brothers in Christ would do everything they could to come for me to bring me back...

Other forums that you frequent are quite well known for their anti-SDA mainstream beliefs. Particularily so concerning EW and the SOP. I don't see many having a problem with that which goes against our doctrines.
There are even those that like to pull a sentnece or two from EW'a writings and mock them or make her look like a raving,radical loon.
Which is the better approach. I have no idea if what you say concerning BSDA and Clay is true or not, but if it is, it seems he is upfront about it. Is that somehow worse than the ones that are quietly here and there working against EW and her writings and what we believe. For me, give me someone that is staright forward any day

Well, when it comes to insider trading, the banks are the worst. They use their analysts and others to tip off others when they are going to dump stock and/or they know information that will affect stock. Only those in the know can read in between the lines and get out while the getting is good, the others suffer when the stock tanks...

Well if you are the moderator/ADMIN on a Adventist site, you would at least expect that they believe in the basic 28 fundimentals and EGW and basic Christian beliefs, and since that is not the case with the ADMIN, moderators, or others in BSDA, that is why I cannot recommend them as a good SDA site. Here is Clay/StormyOne  responding to another member  on his beliefs...

well that clarifies things.... it also explains why religion is probably a topic you and I need not discuss because there is no common point from which to begin dialog..... glad that's been cleared up.... have a good evening....
