I am also a member of the Got Goth Guild, and it has come to my attention that a member of this guild (who is also a member of the Got Goth Guild) has been banned for (from what I can tell) expressing his beliefs and challenging people to examine theirs more closely. I want to make sure I get all the facts straight, so if a moderator could contact me, that would be great!

Also, remember that Christians are supposed to be loving and not turn anyone away. If someone makes a point that goes against your beliefs, carefully read over that point, then do some honest Biblical research and make sure you have a SCRIPTURALLY SOUND counter to that point. Do not hate non-believers, that will only do more harm than good.

in my opinion he was just being very negative towards the christian faith.. i didnt mind him being in the guild as long as he behaved himself but everything post of his i saw was simply not productive. the Christian Gothic guild is supposed to be for Christians to talk about thier beliefs and get support and friendship from others with the same beliefs. its not a guild for debating religious differences. i am sure there are guilds out there for that sort of thing but this isnt one of them.
I am very accepting of people of other faiths wanting to be apart of this guild but not if they are going to be discouraging to other christians..

if anyone would like to argue thier point with me then thats fine by me also

Ah, I see. Perhaps opening up a debate sub-forum may be a suitable course of action in case this ever happens again? From what I've seen, most people who have something negative to say about Christians do so because they have been hurt by Christians and are angry, and they may have some insight as to how we can fix the faults that we have not even noticed. Perhaps there should be a place set aside for such discussions. I do understand how certain comments can be harmful to people who are seeking encouragement, though.

Lol yes.. i am one step ahead of you.. i have opened up a Debate subforum and i am think of a few more sub forums to make this place more organised.. i actually told that member a few minutes ago via pm that he can join again because i am making a debate forum and he can debate in there..
