New Frontier Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Do you not feel that the governance of an alliance would full under the same Biblical principles of church governance, those being decidedly undemocratic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taishaku Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 [quote name='New Frontier' timestamp='1306105582' post='2716776'] Do you not feel that the governance of an alliance would full under the same Biblical principles of church governance, those being decidedly undemocratic? [/quote] The CCC is a political structure, not a church. Indeed, the rulers of each nation in the CCC have their own churches under which they submit themselves. Anyhow, the Bible does not actually elevate any political system above the rest--democracy is just as (in)valid as autocracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wes the wise Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 This is still getting activity? Wow... Maybe CCC wont disband afterall! We seem to be so popular right now, it would be a disservice to go and disband now...especially considering its one of few alliances who are actually growing not shrinking these days!

Oh and Super Cool Yellow.....CN is serious business? Really? Man...you need to get a life. lol I believe RL is far more important than a silly online game. So if I am going to play this game...then I am going to do it heartily, as unto the Lord and have fun in the process. Hey, I could always go back to playing Google Chrome's Angry Birds, or Steam's World of Goo, Plants vs Zombies etc etc. But for me....it's all about fellowship. Who would have ever thought that I would have the opportunity to get to know folks from all around the world and interact with them and be interviewed for two hours by a young Swedish man who was doing a science project. That was soo cool! This is what has kept me playing the game....not the game itself. Thank you Jacapo for your kind words as well. Seriously. I definitely march to the beat of a different drum. My folks know me well enough to happen to like my sense of humor....it comes with the territory. They also know that I am their humble servant and would do anything for my brothers and sisters in the Lord. Like encourage them, pray for them, sing to them (I do that a lot), counsel them from the pages of scripture. (And including drawing a special profile pic for them as a special award...right Wes? It's a MAJOR AWARD!!) True leadership is NOT kingdom building. I could care less if anyone ever remembers my name years down the road. I'm not out to make a name for myself, nor do I really care what others think of me. Plus I really hate titles. They have the capacity to puff one up with PRIDE. But if they see Christ in me and my humility in leading this bunch of folks....then I have managed to accomplish all that God has called me to do. I don't take myself too seriously...that way...I am never offended by others. I have also never really bothered to take much stock in this particular forum....for to me it seems rather silly, and pointless. I care genuinely about being all that I can be for Christ's sake alone....He is the only one I really need to obey and please. Having said all that....if any of you are ever really hurting and need someone to pray for you....I will definitely pray for you. I won't reject you nor make fun of you...EVER...you are all valuable to God. And I hope and pray that you will all be in heaven with me one day. That is my utmost prayer. But that is a choice each and everyone of us has to make on our own. If you don't have a personal relationship with Christ, then you are missing out on the most important thing in the world and the greatest blessing. The results are eternal...and outa this World!

Maliciousness is easily perceived in Christians and their "I will pray for you and if you don't fill the gaping hole in your heart with Christ yadda yadda yadda" passive-aggressiveness for those of us that take offense to it. The reason that we take offense is because people like this entire alliance are consistently claiming that people such as myself are 'not whole' and that they are going to attempt to fix us by talking to their imaginary friend. I'm whole. I have my wits about me and am rational despite my tendencies to be a bit harsh in discussions. As for the rest of your post, you're clearly not a competent gauge of intelligence, nor lack thereof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I consider it pure arrogance, and as a prior Christian I know full well that if a prayer DOES occur, it's along the lines of "oh save them for they don't know what they're doing and open up their cold heart so they can let you into their life". Sorry, I find that insulting. I know exactly what I'm doing and I like my cold damn heart. Moving on...I still hope the worst for this alliance. Have fun passing the dish around, duders.

New Frontier Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 I can't even begin to comprehend the level of arrogance and bitterness in this topic. To paint all Christians (or people of any faith) with a brush of arrogance and maliciousness is a pretty flawed way to live your life, and the vitriol displayed here reaches levels that are, quite simply, astounding.

Krunk the Great Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 (edited) Arguing only perpetuates arguing. No one ever convinced anyone of anything over the world-wide network of communication, nor have the CCC claimed to do so. The only claims Sher has made have been his personal beliefs and while I agree with many of them, I feel it just as improper to argue in public [b]for[/b] a set of beliefs as it is to argue [b]against[/b] a set of beliefs. For people who claim to not care, you really do have a lot of pent-up hatred. Congratulations to the CCC for a solid gov lineup.
