Theos-Talk Archives (March 2006 Message tt01011)

Dear Vince,

Welcome to the debate.

You will see nasty postings and some confrontations.

This is a common probationary ground, a test for one's endurance...

Good luck, and have tolerance and a broad mind towards Theos-talk!


Regards, Carlos Cardoso Aveline, from Brasília,  Brazil.
