lying to me and manipulating me is not pettiness Mr Darwin and i won't ever pass up a chance to bring true bs into the light
perhaps someone with your same moral dignity can be found sooner than later
Happy New Year
and again thankyou for reminding me who you are
i thankyou for this jenn
Lying and manipulating you because he questions who the real Jesus was? What gives you exclusive rights to make claims or ask questions about a historical figure that probably never existed? When you can prove that the Jesus of the bible truly existed and he was what the faithful believe of him, only then will you have the right to question the curiosity of others. Until then the subject of Jesus, regardless, is open for discussion. Believing you are Jesus does not give you the right to tell others what they can and cannot discuss about a mythological figure that may have never existed. You don't like what Mr Darwin or isomer13 have to say about him? Tough sh*t, deal with it.
Here's a thought. Since you're always looking for hidden meaning in other's words by taking them out of context, why not recognize the hidden meaning inside of yourself that your issue with Mr Darwin's comments are really personal in nature and have absolutely nothing to do with his beliefs? So rather than criticize others and doubt their sincerity, try asking yourself why you always seem to seek out conflict when others disagree with you. Until you correct this flaw you will always see disagreement as criticism and will make false assumptions and resort to unfair character assassinations. In other words, you are your own worse enemy. Recognize and own it if you truly expect to move on, or ascend, as you like to call it. Because lady, until you fix yourself, you ain't goin' anywhere but the level you created for yourself! And it sure isn't the one you try to convince others of!
Hi Fuzoid,
A belated Happy New Year. You are bang on with your comments. I was a little surprised by the attack, believing that Jenny had got beyond such behaviours, alas, like a previous post you sent, stating that before too long she would revert back to her old ways, (Leopards and spots) which is a shame, because we both had shared some good dialogue, and to be fair, jenny was very receptive to comments I had made and duly responded appropriately, and to all intents I saw a different side to her, a side that could engage in meaningful debate and contribute valid comments herself, to that end it appeared that a "new relationship" had developed between us.
I watched a DVD last night, Billy Connolly, the legendary scottish comedian, hilarious, he was talking about religion and Jesus, and he relayed an anecdote, where he was filming a TV show based in the arctic about the area and the wildlife etc.. and he went on, as he was sailing along he noticed an iceberg which uncannily looked like Jesus, or at least the jesus we think of him as, and he mentioned this to some friends, and one of them said it's a sign that jesus is watching you, and others claimed that it was indeed jesus himself come back. He went on, these people are absolute religious loony's, it's all bollocks, crap, hogwash, it was a F***ing iceberg for god sake. The point he was making is very much like that you have made, where some are so gripped by religious fervour they will believe and accept anything and attack anyone which questions it.
I know that jenny is a religious person, and has a strong faith in God, Jesus and the bible, it appears that it borders on fanaticism which goes beyond regular worship and can be seen to be deluded, and it is this side which overtakes the rational side when debating this subject. Because it is so close to her she defends it with more passion and fight than anything else.
I am not particularly religious, as you know, and can only offer a view, I understand fully your comments, but I made a posting a while ago, having read past correspondences which had occured between yourself, myself and others against Jenny, which in all honesty were most unsavoury, whilst I believed at the time we were making a stand, we were'nt, it was in truth, cruel and ill advised and not very well meaning. I have since made a vow that I would'nt engage in any dialogue which bordered on an attack of another individual, whoever that may be, as to do that would make me no better than the individual who may be attacking me, and would negate any position of a moral high ground.
This is by no means any judgement of yourself or any other individual and is merely my own decision on how best to deal with negative correspondences, it may come to pass that I may fall foul of the constraint I have placed upon myself, but that then becomes an issue for myself to deal with. I know there may be instances where the gloves come off, I have done it and I have let fly, but on reflection, that is not the real me. I am smart enough to know when the buttons are being pushed and when to react, and sometimes no reaction is the best reaction. i hope you understand.
Mr Darwin.
