    Some members thought it would be funny to derail my thread on "Bullies!" Well, I found the many numerous attempts to be snide and humorous, just confirmation that a handful of members on this board do not see how the scripture applies to how they are expected to treat members of the FAMILY.

    The word is clear .... if you say you love God, but HATE your brother or sister. You are a LIAR! So, I guess this board has quite a few liars posting. :tear:

    Tell me how you can account for emotional and spiritual rudeness, mean intended comments and responses, judgment, attempts to belittle, wanton disregard for others feelings and other sorted attempts to be plain ugly ....and reconcile that with proclaiming to love God and the family of God here on earth???

    You know, that thread could have and should have been an eye opener for you, especially when you were provided examples of your own mean spirited behavior. Self reflection and examination can't be taught I guess. I just hope that one day you will stop acting like this misunderstood victim and realize you bring a lot of this on yourself.

    Hope you have a peaceful Sunday RD2. Maybe away from the computer for a while.

    The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.

    There's a story of a pot and a kettle......

    No, no, no, there's a parable of reaping and sowing and....


    and there's a story of repaying evil with evil.....

    No, seriously though, I have the "gift" of Thread killing. I'm using it here. This needs to die.

    Aside from making me hum Kumbaya as I type…and wanting to virtually hug T Allen… the OP adequately paints the picture of the elephant in our digital room. Our “Christian” forum often turns quite “unchristian.”

    Come on....I've got the Jerry Garcia CD's....group hug :1_grouphug:

    You have to visualize it. Picture it in your "minds eye." Make it your own...own it.....and then let it loose. If you see it, it will come. Be the ball.

    Without a doubt!! There are a couple that follow him around like little puppies.

    Kinda makes me wonder if they(?) have their computer programmed to alert them when RD2 posts, so they can immediately jump on him.

    Oh well, if that floats their boat ----- !!

    He's having another snit.

    Okay, I'll flesh it out some. He complained about those who, in his estimation, derailed his thread on bullies.

    He scolded members of the BB for snide and humorous remarks.

    Dude claimed that many on the BB are liars.

    He opined that there is "emotional and spiritual rudeness" here resulting in ugliness that is in contradiction to the love we are to have for the family of God.

    OP Cliff Notes

    Thanks guys, Matt's version got right to the point.

    However, I appreciate Rippon's version as well, since I learned a new word for the day "Snit".

    I challenge you to look up the reasons those examples of my so-called mean spirit was noted, and you will find that they were preceded by insults, innuendos, insults, and un Christ like comments and insinuations!

    Like I said, there is always a CAUSE and an EFFECT. If you want to believe half of the story, (hands up don't shoot) than be my guest! You are a biiger fool than those protesting on an issue that never happened!

    Those who can't comprehend what they read, or have a problem reading, will rely heavily on cliff notes. So I hope they help make your day!

    Hey, I came across a photo you may consider for your avatar. It seems to fit you to a tee!

    [​IMG] OR [​IMG]

    Let me know which best fit you, and I'll mail a copy for you to use!
