Comment Policy

GCM Watch is pleased to extend to its readers the ability to comment on stories to encourage discussion. As such, lively discussion and debate are welcome in the Christian context. Certain kinds of posts, however, are not allowed. These include:

  1. Obscene language
    Obscene or pornographic language is not welcome, nor acceptable in any context. Any post using such language will be deleted.
  2. Threats or advocation of violence
    Threats (3rd party included) to harm another person are prohibited. Any such threats posted will be reported to the appropriate law enforcement agency.
  3. Identity theft
    Presenting yourself as someone you are not is dishonest and destroys honest discussion.
  4. Personal attacks against contributors
    You may discuss issues, debate ideas, or even one’s position on the stated issue, but not the person.  We expect mature, responsible discussion.
  5. Advertising
    Gratuitous, self-promotional advertising is barred from this forum.
  6. Documentation
    Accusing someone by name with no source documentation is unacceptable. Speculative type comments will be evaluated on a case by case basis and could face deletion.
  7. Visitors are welcome to post comments that are relative to the respective post or to question, comment and debate specific text within the post or someone’s comments related to the post. GCM Watch may not post your comment if it is what we consider a general “soapbox” type comment that has no clear relation to respective post or the nature of this blog. Commenters displaying a determined propensity to violate our policy will be placed on a one week restriction after 3 such posts.  GCM Watch reserves the sole right to determine whether a comment meets criteria outlined here. We also reserve the right to modify this policy as needed at any time and without notice. Please note that ALL first time comments will be moderated. If you do not see your comment published immediately, please be patient. Generally, it will be approved it unless it violates our policy.

    DL,
    I am astonished at the work God is preparing through you and your associates. Already I have referred a parent to this blog/site to glean advice and scripture on how to respond to the doctrine her daughter is embracing through one of the gay chuch movements. This is very much needed. I will post the site on our resource page as well. Also, I will look for opportunities for you to present the GCM Watch message and I do hope you find money to plan a conference to a wider audience. You are chosen for this!

    Thank you so much Charlene! I am very glad that GCM Watch can be a solid resource in refuting the false claims of the gay christian movement. It is a movement that is deceiving so many vunerable young people who want God but cant understand their homosexual attractions. The gcm has the perfect slick lie for them. Hopefully we can show the lie for what it is.

    –Blessings!

    Good site – you\’re a pretty good writer.

    Thanx for this website. I read it all weekend. It is very informative and I have learned much. My views have changed in a weekend. I came here to see if my prayers for a friend to be led out of homosexuality were wrong. He is a beautiful, kind and talented man, who decided to come out at around 40. After reading your website and links I know what I am doing is correct.

    GCMW: In all the seven months, we have been diligently writing on this blog and reading over a thousand comments, this one is by far the most encouraging. Thank you for holding fast to that which is true. Not our truth, but HIS truth. We also pray that your friend see the error of his ways and repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

    How sad to hear the glib arguement “Jesus never said anything about it”. Jesus also never directly addressed the issue of abortion. Or spouse abuse. Or child abuse. Or drug sales/addiction. Or animal abuse, racism, slavery, free speech, democracy, stewardship of the planetary resourses, or dozens of other social issues. What He did address was that He did not come to change the law, that not one jot or tittle was to be changed, implicitly implying that the laws governing worship and relationships were to remain intact from the Mosaic law. If we, as Christians, believe that the Word of God is inspired by God, then we should understand God’s position on issues (such as homosexuality) from the Old Testament writings, as well as from the letters of Paul. We should also remember that the Scriptures are not to given “private interpretations”, as this causes people to attach their own meanings to passages rather than take it for the truth it is.

    I found your site on technorati and read a few of your other posts. Keep up the good work. I just added your RSS feed to my Google News Reader. Looking forward to reading more from you down the road!

    Why did you stop doing your blogtalk radio interviews? I really enjoyed them. Thanks

    GCMW: VC, you are going to make me cry. I really loved doing the show, but I really needed somone to locate and schedule guests for me. I am one of those 99 irons in the fire type of people and I couldnt keep up the pace. Please pray for me, I havent abandoned the show but I need to reposition some things and hope to be back on sometime in the near future. Thanks so much for asking about it.

    Really some excellent information on this site. I am saddened, however, to see your promotion of Charisma magazine, a bulwark for aberrational and even heretical teachings. I noticed one of your top stories is about T.D. Jakes; we should never listen to him for biblical teachings anyway because he is a modalist – a oneness pentecostal who refutes the doctrine of the Trinity.

    GCMW: Glenn, the “promotion” is not of Charisma but of stories I have written or have been written about the issue we address here. By the way, those articles are not aberrational or heretical. I cant answer for the others.

  • Glenn E. Chatfield said:

    Perhaps so as not to appear promoting Charisma you could just list the articles you’ve had in the various issues? Personally, I wouldn’t write for any magazine like that because it would give credence to it. Would you write articles for Mormon publications? How about the Watchtower? Just something to think about.

    GCMW: Glenn, your points are duly noted. I dont feel the same way you do about Charisma. While Im not necessarily “promoting” the magazine I do appreciate them giving me an opportunity to speak God’s truth about homosexuality.

    Pastor Foster,

    Did you ever think about expanding the Blog Talk to other issues? As of late I have noticed you expanding your discussions beyond homosexuality. I have even noticed you posting to other blogs more frequently. I’m sure you could easily find other guests with a more expansive format. Melvin from PP.org would be a great guest in my opinion. That man is definitely not short of words. Just an idea.
