What say you, Lady Lash? Truce? I am more than willing to meet you more than halfway on this.

Had you not started quoting my posts a few days ago, you would still be blissfully happy in your cocoon of intentional idiocy.

You weren't getting enough attention, though.

Like everyone else, support your statements. You made seceral; statements relating to Gay Rights that translate that they will have to be content because the law is against them.

So, why should anyone think you're being honest about "fighting slavery"?

Amazing.

This thread has had 3,961 views and 441 posts. Out of those numbers, we have 18 votes for yes and 19 votes for no.

What does that say?

I guess the same way that your redneck is on par with towelhead statement was changed to you were referring to terrorists as towelheads, Lash. It was a couple of statements that you made that appeared in contradiction with each other. Does that mean you lied? I don't think so. Sometimes we all have to clarify our statements. That's life. We all say things at times that are perceived differently than we meant them.

Now, I pointed out your inconsistency (my perception) of those two comments. So, what's the difference, Lash? Isn't that what you are saying you are doing with me?

I really want this animosity to end. There's no reason for it. I should hold something against you forever? You should hold something against me forever? I cannot and will not do that, Lash. I have no hard feelings toward you. It's done. It's over.

We all make mistakes. We all do dumb things. We are all human.

Do you think we will have to go to a tie breaker?

Intrepid,

That a lot of people are very divided on this issue? Maybe they are being honest with themselves right now and might realize that the state of things in today's wake of events may be clouding their perception?

I hope that is the case. To me, that would mean there is a great deal of hope for all of us.

Perhaps, Momma.

But, to me it says apathy rather than hope

Intrepid,

And, you may very well be correct in that. I am hoping and praying that it isn't apathy but rather introspection into how we truly feel about things and what it is in each of us that needs to be corrected to make good changes.

Chumly started a thread about world views and it had a test to find out what your world view was. I was a Romanticist. Go figure. Laughing

I am talking about 3961 views and 37 votes. That is the apathy that I am talking about. Nothing to do with the results.

So, you think because there are so many views and yet no votes that indicates the apathy? Hmmmmm.http://www.smileys.ws/smls/yahoo/00000033.gif I can understand that. Even if someone didn't want to post, you would think they'd want to at least vote? I need to think on this one.

Maybe it's the opposite. Maybe a lot of people are carefully considering all angles before they vote. I know that I've looked in on this thread at least fifty times, and I haven't voted. I'm still mulling...

You have a point there. I have to remember that the question for the vote is asking whether we think the board is anti-Muslim, not ourselves.

I voted no. I know that I am not because I am not anti anything other than bully. I was optimistic in saying that the board was not. Maybe I am right and maybe I am wrong. We have no way of really knowing. It may have been different if it was individuals rather than the board. I was going by general comments in other threads that led to my decision.

Yes and no is not a plateful of sophisticated options.

Mistakes and slippages and things--we all do. I'm always happy for the opportunity to forgive people for these things, because I know I will constantly be hoping people forgive me for such.

That is not what occurred. You create yourself for each situation, and you believe Christians are in a war against everyone else. You told me so, and the minute you saw that I reviled that comment, you tried to weasel out of it. You work this board like a professional. When you haven't had enough sympathy, you do something like this. <I'll piss off the mean one, she'll be mean, and everyone will pity me. Again> When you want Setanta to lighten up, you search his posts, get information and fake something similar to manipulate him and others into a supportive dialogue. <Brown Recluse and Narcissistic Disordered fiance/spouse...sorry. No way in HELL was that a coincidence>

I've even seen you introduce your cat farm into a discussion, when someone was taking you to task for something that had absolutely nothing to do with cats. I'm amazed that they let you get away with it. You went to other boards and horribly betrayed this group of people. Fortunately for you, they don't seem to mind. I do. That wasn't an error, that was a revelation of who you are. You embody what I hate; though I don't hate people, I hate what you represent.

I despise what people have done to Christianity, and you now personify that for me. I see you manipulate people here, flatter them, and pervert a religion that I love, by attaching your hateful rhetoric to it. I have never actually scrolled because of actual disgust until you got here. People say they do it, to make a point, or to hurt someone. I don't want to hurt you, but hopefully you will see now that I am serious about the need for you to disappear from my radar. I will be happy to live up to my end of such a bargain.

I realize things would go better for me if I just lied and acted like it's ok with me. I'd probably get points for that. I don't want points I have to lie and fake to get. You can have those. You're racking them up, btw. Kudos.

If you stay away from my posts, I will avoid responding to yours.

We can save the board this waste of space. Unfortunately, I see as I am wrapping this up, that you have shown your usual mountain of ignorance relating to one of my posts.

The comment that began this entire "towelhead" conversation was when I called terrorists towelheads months ago. Why don't you make an effort to know what you're talking about? Just a half-assed effort would be ok. And IMO redneck is on par--or the same level of offense--as towelhead. This isn't universally accepted, but it is MY opinion.

Stop using me for your attention fix.

I am beginning to see why nobody seems to be answering the Muslim question. Nobody is discussing it.

Okay, this has gone far enough, both of you need to stop posting in this thread at all, just so we can get back on subject. Your presence (both of you) is, as I see it, the a roadblock to this thread doing what it was meant to do, spark RELEVANT conversation and exchange of ideas hopefully leading to improved Islamic/a2k relations.
