My very best friend is HeavenlyOne, whom most everyone here knows quite well, and then this guy comes along with this comment.

Please don't expect me to not respond to such baloney.

The comment about praying that all former UPCers would get in a car wreck or something...

HeavenlyOne is former UPC...as well as alot of my other friends and it hit me wrong.

We've apologized via PM and all is well now.

Actually, I did quote TS. But the comment referenced the conflict.

Sorry for the confusion.

I took ladyrev's post wrong and provided a typical hotheaded response. I've felt my whole life that I wasn't allowed to have an opinion and about 5-7 years ago, something snapped in my head and now everyone is paying for it... anytime there is a suggestion that we are not allowed to have opinions.
