You can talk to people, in person, who pick apart every word, facial expression, etc.

I think if someone wants to be an understanding and patient person, they will do that whether it's via email, phone or on a Forum. JMHO!

I for one think that you are very clear with your attacks and threats. There are even usually threatening smilies to underscore the point

I hope I don't kill this thread. =)

When I have not meant any harm it was taken as if I was being mean and rude.
I even received a pm falsely accusing me.

I pm'd 2 people back and explained what I was talking about and that I didn't say what they were accusing me of, and they would not respond to me.

I then pm'd the person they thought I was being "mean" to , and she messaged me back and was OK with everything.

I don't want to hurt or offend.

I love the Lord and people.

I know many people who would actually be much more "comfortable" (in a purely financial or physical sense) if they did leave the organization and it's doctrinal stance. I just get uneasy about overly sweeping criticisms.

One would make the argument that those who stay are doing so in defense of their comfort zone, and another would argue that those who leave are in search of a temporal comfort zone by virtue of acquiescing to the level of mainstream Christendom. Either way, I think that the sweeping generalities are innaccurate.

I agree! Good post, Stew! I wish we could point this out a little more!

Don' be hard on yourself--we all are misunderstood sometime or another that is why there is so much posting to try to explain what we mean-

It happens to all of us- Dont feel bad!

Ok now you can join me and pressing in hijacking this thread.
