So step in Mods!
Those jerks attacking me on every thread are stealing from others a chance to post a good idea or remembrance, meanwhile, destroying their own integrity.
The "25th Streeet Theater" was a good thread until some idiot decided to make about me and my pro choice position. That tactic is extremely unfair to the OP and derailed a good OP.
Dachau touched my heart deeply and to see it in person struck me personally as to the hate in this world.. I had good thread derailed by personal vendettas.
I have prayed a Sunday Prayer for several weeks yet that is weaponizied into an attack on me.
These attacks are rooted in my pro choice position, progressive theologies, and my liberal politics.
If Ii enter a thread or start a thread on these topics then I am fair game for an attack on my ideas not person - ideas matter not me as a personality. Attack the ideas all you want but not me.
However I expect a few here to have no boundaries (so Administrators administrate) and will attack me no matter what the plea or warning.
I'm not a snowflake (I am still here, right?) but I am a human being, a father, a grandfather, and a pastor.
Souhern Baptists, non-denominationalists (who are really SBC in disguise), orthodox, Catholics, Pentecostals, etc live in a walled off theological vacuum. That's ok but there is a whole world of us who tossed aside an omnipotent and omniscient God for a God of love, hope, discipleship, faith and are good Christians. Our God is still omnipresent in love, grace, hope, faith. God simply cannot move tectonic plates or change the direction of the wind but God is with us in all those changes and challenges.
You may disagree. If so present your argument but I am a pastor not a fraud (One issue that have empathy for women does not change my faith). If you wish put your life and belief out there that is against the grain and count the posts until the first fraud pronouncement. (Usually with in five). Otherwise you're a damn snowflake not me. I put my pro choice position out there and you weaponized it. Now it's your turn or hide on your bunker behind your keyboard..
So ease up. Go after ideas not people.
Yep, I have called you names mostly "Jerk" but ad hominem attacks when true are fair game as they go to the heart of an argument.
For example the 25th Street op went to abortion. That's being a jerk and out of bounds on a benign remembrance. It derailed the post making you a jerk.
That's a legitimate use of ad hominem attack.
Thank you for your time.
