They probably have strong basis to suspect that money is involved behind the posts of self-proclaimed gays. But no matter how strong that may be, still it remains a suspicion.
If their posts are not open to replies, then we would have good reason to impose moratorium. If the self-proclaimed gays do not get tired advancing their agenda, as they are doing these days, we too should be ready to face the battle head on anywhere and anytime if what they want is battle. But it is not a sign of strength on our part if we generalize that every self-proclaimed gay who would visit this forum is simply availing of free advertisement for the gay cause. There probably are others who come here sincerely searching for answers but in doing it they sometimes seem to be combatants.
Anyway, if in the course of the discussions within a thread it would be confirmed that one or more of the participants is undoubtedly simply hitching, then close the thread. But at least we first favored the presumption of innocence as against wicked intents.
In my past experience as a left-wing activist, I know you don’t have to be a payed activist, for activist are willing to give their own time and money to to be an activist, just like us that are called to defend our faith. As to what it is being said on the threads after about a dozen post, the question let is let us say: "is why does the Church oppose gay marrige? A reply is giving listing the reasons… then a reply comes a says that is studid, … then the thread just goes back and forth until we get over 700 post back and a forth… over and over and over… so who wins? The Gay appoligist for he or she gets more then enough time and freedom to barate the Churches teachings, provoke anger etc.etc.
These threads after the Church teachings are presented consideration about them being closed should come quickly and any new thread should be refered to any closed threads on the subject or to “ask the appoligist”, why should CAF give the “gay” rights movement a platform to to riducule the Church? No converison is going on, no logical discussion after the first dozen post, just hate mongering by those that hate the Church and her teachings …IMHO
Already on this thread “gay” appoligists ridicule Christ and the Church and have attempted to derail the thread. and I suspect when we have some that identify themselves as Christians and take an ultra extreme stand, are they in reality “gay” activist which are trying to make the Church look like extremist and give the “gay” appoligist a chance to further riducle the Church. Of course anyone that oppose the idea of “gay” marraige are considered extreme in the eyes of the “gay” movement.
Paid activists on CAF, this I have doubt, but activist have agendas and wrong minded agendas work to undermind the good, even if they fail to see or understnad the wrong they promote.
There is nothing wrong with policing the situation.
Of course agangbern, there is no monitor I suspect, nor would I have reason to suspect that may or would undermined CAF. But some threads go beyond any reasonable discussion, so it does make me wonder, sometimes. Overall though, I know the monitors do a very good job for they have had to chastise me a time or two, for being uncharitable, which I didn’t see as being censorship, but a challenge and reminder for me to be more Christ like - so here’s Kudos to the CAF monitors.
Of course by my own standard I have presented this thread might be closed soon…
