Miss tery, Slydevl, and VOR -- what are your intentions in this forum?

Uh universal love and understanding? And baring that foxy boxing and jello rascling

 

Exactly.

We've discovered over the past week that the rules are modular. Amendments can be made if necessary. I continue to hope they won't be.

I wouldn't necessarily disagree with that. I'm not saying I'm trying to create an Affirmative Action environment for non-Christians, but I am trying to give subscribers of every belief and philosophy an equal chance to be heard and respected. In a Christianity-dominated society, that can look a little lopsided, even if it isn't.

I'm not egotistical enough to assert I've been absolutely fair across the board, but I've tried to be.

That's what I was pointing out. We're all so quick to jump on her, and usually she has it coming. But I only thought it fair to point out a positive observation just as quickly, even if it was only my own.

Her motivation is uncertain, which is why I decided to give her this thread to state what they were and eliminate that doubt. As far as the questions she's answering, I've learned as much about my own faith from questions like the ones she's asked than I have reading or sitting in a pew. Fielding questions from people outside one's personal belief society is a good thing in my opinion. But I also realize my motivations may be different than someone else's. I'm interested in truth, not believing something nice to make me feel better when I'm sad.

That sentiment flows from an assumption based on past behavior, which is precisely why I included the "clean slate" rule in this forum's policy. R & R is the place to re-hash old wounds, not here.

 

I wasn't aware they'd done anything that warranted being exiled. Nonetheless, you should probably interrogate them privately.

 

this was just two days ago ... and this is an improvement?

 

Not only that but she refuses to reply when asked for further info. Is this discourse?

 

But if there's a public perception that was wrong, wouldn't it be better to clear the air for everyone, rather than only one person (me) knowing the truth and letting everyone else continue to get frustrated?

 

What's wrong with that?

 

No.

 

That's the bummer with terry. just trying to start a sqabble, then she buggers off when she has to be more than skin deep. One thing to call someone stupid another to prove your accusation. She has to learn to stand and fight it out or shut up.

 

You think she asked a sincere question? As sly said, she didn't stick around to discuss her question. Also, please tell my you can see the condescending tone of "zooming around" and asking about the speed of light problem.
