*hug* I am sorry someone had to have you edit your link out because they didn't like that you're woman enough to know when you can't handle something all alone.

Hi, I was reading a friend's emails at CF, Lanakila, who used to be a moderator back in 2003, and then became an atheist who now posts at the Internet Infidel's Message Board. She contacted me in 2003 because of my website or book, Leaving the Fold: Testimonies of Former Fundamentatlists. And I found out she had taken a course with Dr. Habermas of Liberty University, whom I had exchanged some letters with on the topic of the resurrection. Anyway, I got involved trying to find a post Lanakila said she remembered adding to CF about her loss of faith, which it seems they may have deleted. How DO you search CF? And while searching for her post, I ran across yours and also noted that you're still with CF since 2003. Thought her name might ring a bell. Send me an email if it does. Thanks.

Lanakila's goodbye at CF was supposed to be here: http://www.christianforums.com/t71095
But I can't find it anymore. Seems it was deleted since she was a Christian moderator of the CF who became an atheist. Oh, I noted that you were having doubts about the O.T. prophecies at that time, studying how they did not fit Jesus in the N.T. Jeffrey Lowder at the Secular Web did a fantastic article on that, The Fabulous Prophecies of the Messiah, and Fiddler Zvi's page on Messiah and Tanakh is also quite wonderful for debunking Christian claims. Even J. P. Holding at Tektonics has backed down, admitting that the N.T. authors employed pesher and midrashic interpretations of verses in the O.T. to try and make their points, points that he admits prove nothing to anyone by today's standards of Biblical interpretation.

Here is where Lanakila's goodbye thread was originally located before it was split out by the CF people:

According to people who viewed it before it was split out, Lanakila made quite an impact on Christian Forums with her announcement. Her goodbye-thread had over 24000 views before they yanked it, apparently mere days before you yourself joined CF.
