I do not understand why you banned me? I simply presented my thoughts, you warned me and I gave you my reasonings and then you banned me. Why? I told you that I was going to not say anything anymore. This is unfair treatment and I am very annoyed that you would do so.

Lady Checkmate:
Hi JustThinking. Previously you were informed that we're a Christian community, but that all are welcome to participate a long as they comply with our community guidelines. You were also asked to read and comply with our community guidelines. However, you returned and insulted Christians and Christianity again (and posted blasphemy):

Justthinking:
It seems that many Christians like to point their finger at Muslims yet they don't point their fingers at themselves? Why is that, do we understand what Muslims really believe? DO we even care? Did you know that they worship the same God as the Jews and Christians do? They believe that Jesus was a great teacher. They are not one and the same as Islamic extremists.

I responded with another request that you read our community guidelines (which if you had as you said you did, then you knew that off topic comments are not allowed and questions and/or concerns should be addressed here on this channel), but you chose to continue off topic on F&R:

Lady Checkmate:
You're incorrect again. We do not worship the same God. I've asked you before to please read and comply with our community guidelines. We're a Christian community. All are welcome as long as they comply with our guidelines. Do not attack Christians nor Christianity here. Consider this a final warning. Thanks.

After my request (you walked through my warning), you responded off topic (stating you'd read the community guidelines) a clear violation.
Thread jacking is not allowed. If you can't participate in a Christian community without insulting Christians, i.e., you can't comply with our community guidelines, then its best that you move on to a channel that is a better fit with you.

I consider myself to be a Christian though and you deem me as not one. I am simply raising a point and I said that the God of Abraham is the same God (Yahweh) that the Muslim people serve. I only said that because I know that the Bible tells me that Ismael was blessed by Abraham and he became the father of the Arab people. Why is that wrong to point at historical fact? I did not walk through your warning, I was simply responding to your threat to ban me. I believe that your actions towards me were a bit extreme especially when I promised to you that I would not say any more. I do not understand your logic, I am a Christian, hun, this is simply not very fair. I am very saddened that you would judge me as an unbeliever and all because I am just trying to ask questions and to encourage conversation.

"I am a Christian, hun, this is simply not very fair. I am very saddened that you would judge me as an unbeliever and all because I am just trying to ask questions and to encourage conversation."

First, please post the comment where I stated what you believe. If you can't do that after making that statement, you're trolling and making false allegations, which I will not entertain. Its not "fair" that you walk through my requests, our community guidelines and my warnings, but expect a free pass.

Second, I'm not here to debate your beliefs. You're entitled to believe whatever you want. However, (and again), regardless to what you believe (or disbelieve), I must ask that while in our community you comply with our guidelines or please move on. There are other communities where you can blaspheme and attack Christians and be celebrated for it, just not in our communities.

Finally, this is a problem resolution channel, not one to debate your beliefs. Either you can comply with our community guidelines while in our community (regardless of your beliefs) or you can't. I'll be closing this in 15 minutes if I don't receive a response from you in that time. I have other channels to mod and other responsibilities. Please do not open anymore discussions on the same topic as this is settled.

justthinking:
I do not understand your reasonings one bit. I specifically told you that I would not even say anything, yet you still banned me. You want me to post where you stated what I believe? You said, "we're a Christian community" and "do not attack Christians or Christianity here". That insinuated that I was not a part of this Christian community although I was and I am still today. I am not here to debate your beliefs either but we are here to share and discuss issues, even if we don't see eye to eye. Where is the love and compassion that we are all supposed to have in common? You accuse me of being a troll, I am not at all. I did not blaspheme anyone, where do you get that out of what I said? Now I am a blasphemer? You judge me and why? You say that I attack Christians when I do not, instead I am called a liar by others and they get a free pass to speak badly about me without regard to how they are behaving on here.
Please know that I am not blaspheming my faith or attacking Christianity. Again, this is just simply not right at all and I am very disappointed and frustrated with how a sister in the Lord is treating me. I am not the enemy yet you paint me as one. I do not know what else to say. I only ask that you reconsider your decision to ban me, I will not raise any more viewpoints that you might deem as controversial. I had made friends here, please understand that I was simply asking questions.

Lady Checkmate:
Thats not true (you sent three comments after my request that you comply with our community guidelines, not just the one you admit to because you think it makes you look good. Why not post the others that you sent after my request and warning), but since you've lied more than once, we're done. You could not prove that nor produce a comment from me stating your "beliefs," yet you attacked me and played victim while lying. Again, since you refuse to address the fact that the issue is compliance with our community guidelines, and you can't seem to do so, I wish you well in other communities. Enjoy your day.
