The list doesn't go on, because at no time have I ever said what you have about a child, or someone's childhood. As far as you using people as your human shields that has been noticed by other posters. Aquila you've used me and what happened to me being beaten to unconsciousness as a child, used the story of "a" child not your opposition. A child who was dragged by a drunken stepparent to a lit stove for punishment. A child who soiled himself because of the combination of fear and searing pain. Praise Jesus you removed Isaiah 1:17 as your signature post. Because you only want to learn to learn how to appear good, act like you correct oppression. Bring justice to the fatherless, plead the widow’s cause? Chris, there is no way, someone would take a story of a child being tortured and use it to their own advantage. To turn around and make Isaiah 1:17 their own. That's legalism, saying all the right things, smiling, hugging, Christianisms flowing out of the mouth sweeter than honey, with a mind filled with soiled loaded kitty litter box. No shirt and a tie? Women wearing skirts? That's not legalism God is talking about, He is talking about those who profess Jesusisms while having a mind loaded with child murder.
The above sounds familiar to anyone who had been brutalized as a spouse, or as a child. The torture, and then the plea of sorry, let's make it good, and move on. You see people like you always love the part of move on. While I'm hardcore about repentance and moving forward, I would like to say something before you forget the whole thing. Forgetting the whole thing so you can play Christian again. I don't need to apologize Chris, because I wasn't the one who equates child discipline with torture. Unless, in your mind burning a child with a cigarette is the same as verbal correction and reprimand? You might, I have no reason to doubt you that you actually believe in brutalizing a child into submission. People who have been badly brutalized as a child, as a spouse, or a senior citizen, recognize the individual who tortures then wants to forgive and forget. They also want the one who was abused to take some form of responsibility for their own beating. They employ the word 'we" a lot in their apologies to the one curled up in a corner with tears mingled with blood.
You would like to move on just so you can dive back into your Churchanity Nicer Than Jesus Shuffle of Angel's Feet persona. But, Chris, this isn't about me. This is about your true feelings towards those who have gone through mental and physical abuse. You ran for page after page filling an entire thread with me concerning PTSD. Do you know how many CHILDREN have PTSD? How many battered spouses have PTSD? Bro, this is because you have no idea of what you are talking about when in comes to this subject. Hence the reason why you don't even understand the videos or articles you have posted. You claim to have lived all this, but you didn't give it a second thought to use a story about "a" child being tortured to get even with your opponent?
Apology? Move forward? Chris, you need to straighten out what is going on in your own personal life. Instead of want to straighten out what is going on in your internet life. Bro, you are in a house church, then go hang out with some brothers and have a prayer meeting. You posted that you were going to make some time to fast, pray and get soaked in the Word? Sounds good if it actually gets carried out. It is straight up legalism if you just say it and never do it. |
I got through the first three sentences of your diatribe and realized that you feel like you can tell people everything is in their heads, that they have low T, criticize and accuse others of being abusive to spouses, that they don't have Jesus, and call their family circumstances lies...but if they do that very same thing to you, you fall back like you're going to faint, start the tears, and act like a victim. I did this to only one of your life stories and you shatter like a wine glass at an Ella Fitzgerald concert. You've done this repeatedly to me, and others, but you don't see it, or worse, you don't care. You made it clear that our issues, trauma, past physical and spiritual abuse, concerns, and experiences mean NOTHING to you if it challenges the dogma of your opinion. Therefore, all things being equal, your issues, trauma, past abuse, and experiences are equally invalid and open to mockery. Pull up your big girl panties and take it like a man. After all, you dished it out.
You've never shown the slightest bit of empathy toward a number of us. Why should you be shown any empathy? Why are you, as you might say, all upset like "a puppy pooping peach pits" (or something like that, isn't that what you've said before) now that someone stood up to you and returned the very same lack of empathy you've demonstrated repeatedly?
If it's any consolation, it sounds like a lot of us had bad childhoods. But since our experiences, families, and concerns never mattered enough to deserve any empathy, neither do yours.
Perhaps if it was never your intention to do that to others, now would be a good time to say so. Or...you could respond with more lack of empathy and your traditional litany of personal insults. Let's see what you choose to do.
