I have asked unsafe to explain how her version of truth has made a difference in her life. Personal experience often means more than to me throwing information at me as "proof". I have yet to have had an answer to that request.

When I've explained how writing presented comes across, I have been accused of blaming, judging or side-stepping. There has been no response to direct statements other than to blame or throw statements back. I'm left wondering about comprehension or other issues.

This thread was allegedly created to discuss whether judgement was okay according to the bible. It is apparently a soap box from which the OP can judge other participants, label them and to preach her views. There has been no attempt at dialogue. That's awfully close to troll behaviour to me.

A shot at touchee ... you may have touched a neuroscientific point!

Yes, unsafe has confirmed on a number of occasions that she is a "chick, not a dude"...

She and I have had the odd conversation via Wondermail. When we discuss inappropriate imagery, she seems mainly very concerned that she will be unable to preach her truth to those who lurk on our site. I think most of the regular posters have been pretty carefully identified as sheep or goats.

Lurkers or Lucre ... Luke Urs? The intouchable metaphor goes on as ineffable god ... in essence ... like Mariah! The heat was then turned down ...

The brutishment of the version of Maleficent? It is a reaction to scars ... some pious sorts deny hurts and depressions until into one ... as a singularity ... that oude a here!
 
Oh, I have had enough interaction with unsafe to get a feel for this. I have a pretty good idea about who she judges to be the goats and sheep around here.

Nothing to do with coffee. :coffee:

I really don't mind if unsafe thinks I'm either a sheep or a goat. I like both. Seriously, gotta give her bonus points for persistence.

The woman who was killed during a hostage situation in Surrey, B.C. back in March appears to have been shot by police, according to the Independent Investigations Office.

After more than a month on the case, the IIO said it appears police fatally shot both the suspect and hostage.

The deceased Nona McEwan and Randy Crosson, had a young child together.

McEwan also had children from a previous relationship.
 
What Can We Do To Stop Democide?

The most practical thing that we can each do is promote the importance of individual freedoms. When humans have rights that are associated with those freedoms, it begins to take the power and control away from the governments and put it into the hands of the people being governed. Instead of governments each fighting for power and causing wars that trap people into a bubble of potential democide, there is a common striving toward a greater good.


There will also be people who try to rule by fear and long for greater amounts of power. That will probably never change. If we as a people can band together and allow our differences to make us stronger instead of weaker, democide doesn’t have to occur. It’s been said that to destroy an enemy, one must be able to love them first. If we truly love someone, then how can we ever consider democide?

It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not be encumbered once more by a yoke of slavery.

You'd have to ask Unsafe, but I'd hazard goat, mainly because of who you're related to, I think, lol. I believe that the only correct protocol is to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour, whose blood was shed to save you from the hell to which your birth, as a decendent of Adam, destined you. There's probably some protocol that this must be by public altar call, but I'm not as sure about that.

Preach it, sister! Hallelu ...:unsure: ... you weren't really advocating this, were you? :cautious:
 
;-) I have family, none blood, but in-law types, who honestly believe this, so I'm very familiar with the themes. My ex-step-mother-in-law and I have driven from Barrie to Montreal and back on many occasions. Our protocol around "fair use of the CD player despite very different preferences in noise" has been more or less equal time, and she says nothing about the live concerts with singers who say f*** a LOT, and I try hard not to argue, at least not very vociferously, with her endless evangelical-type sermon series CDs, featuring figures like Joyce Meyer.

Suggest that you have some religious podcasts to put on and then give her a dose of Homebrewed Christianity. :devil: After all, who wouldn't like a boisterous, beer-swilling process theologian?:cool:

What about a tendency to end statements with the word 'period' usually followed by a line of .............
such as 'period ........
Many people would interpret this as being the final word on the subject: they have more no more to say, and they are not interested in anything more the other person has to say. In other words, this conversation is over.
But then she often continues on with her argument, and never considering seems to consider the other person's point of view other than to form her rebuttal.
'period' spelled out at the end of a statement is rude, period.

Culturally, it's rude to us. Has anyone asked @unsafe if she belongs to a cultural group outside of, generally, WASP?

WASP ... white anglos saxon presumption .... when there could be some mixed plasma? Black BMR's mistaken as stela's beans? Interstellar blast ephemii ... those angels out and about in the dark of your deepest dreams ... don;t tell ... silence is best my friend! (Friedman avocation; thus we're cooked up by stirring souls in couplets) Why? only Y's men know as they are sometime represented by Odins chaos ... a grand stir to secrete one' self into recession. It is not a set protocol! Thus parts may melt down ... expect drippy words from them that lost it ...

And the strung out dots as periods indicate something more to be added. There's a word for that in a typesetters manual ... but I can't remember everything due to mortal recall that M'N kind is gifted with to give example of means and endrogeneity.

Endrogeneity is a curios word that MS does not recognize due to some abstraction of natural information by AI so as to create a void that could be terminal ... the multii etuding nature of the study is an enigma ... depending on what side of the line the lords observe it. Thus much wobbling and waving from the powers ...

Baaaaaaaaaaa.

So, based on that, am I sheep or goat? Maybe a little of each? Is it either/or or both/and?
It's the 'little' realities of truth and facticity that render such simple, in-or-out, yes-or-no, saved-or-unsafed judgments so questionable.
Simplistic, sweeping judgments just don't cut it when one deals with reality.
 
Sometimes the goats get on a high point and see that the sheep, etc. remain as a fuzzy spot down there in the hazy (hazeled) vale ... and thus return to base to accept the beefs while away doing high things! Mountain piscine ... why the river runs through it ... just to make that sound of mighty rushing fluids ... it is all an err ... thus the recall function as a strange vissistude (doings)!

It is all for nothing and thus what's up there catches it on the rebound ... and nothing continues as a great severance or what was believed to be a holy void at one time ... just for escape from the rats in the race!

Thus the purpose of life so that God sees that everything was for nothing in the contemptible/contemplation manner of amusing oneself with a large stretch of nothing ... and thus we go down the hole ... some have the BS that's Eldora Do ... knows chit, chad, and other expendables ...

May have led to the imaginary formation of the monad diagrammatically that is a spot withing a bell 've rings ... in a one way domain a single ringer? Don;t get caught up in de bele ... it may be variable ... and change into something else again ... the dirt on haggis? Could be hard blarney given the thing altruisms expelled ...

When recalled have a good story ... for when the prodigal one calls you in tent! Intentionally ...
