You have always been my friend Solid..That will not change..Friends always have the right to disagree. Sometimes it is good for people to vent and sometimes their anger gets misdirected. Everyone has a right to their opinions. Both politics and religion create strong opinions and emotions....but that has never stopped them from being core to the stream.

As far as pretenders go there are lots of them here...they have a right to be here....as long as they don't hurt anyone. That has always been my opinion.

The stream seems to be calming down my friend. I hope you are OK....

Love

Jackie

...and I've never doubted that Jackie, as over time and hundreds of comments later, there were quite a few posts where, when you asked for advice...you got it, and although it wasn't always what the others were saying, I feel the only way to show that we care is by total honesty, and I hope my comments always showed that along with the respect I have for you.

I feel now that I should have stated at the end of my post.."No Comments, Just Please Think About It", as it really saddens me to still hear that there is so much dissent. I really thought it would have been resolved sooner than this, but nothing is resolved until everyone sees/understands that until we respect others right to their opinion, regardless if it's religion, politics or of a sexual nature...it's going to happen again and again and again.

And each time it happens, more harm is done.

You see first hand for yourself on Ren's OTB where once in awhile someone will come on calling names and being really nasty, instead of stating their opinion, strongly or not...but with respect!!!

And also the nightmare caused at Whit's blog on religion, because there are some who refuse to accept the fact that others DO NOT believe the way they do and they (holier than thou folks) get down right NASTY!!!
Some people don't even believe in God. We need to respect that!!! And NOT IMPLY that they are going to burn in hell!!!!

This is what I'm referring to, not a brief misunderstanding on a particular subject/blogger!!! Not strong opinions and emotions, because we all have them but their disagreement can be expressed with respect.

I'm not shooting the messenger, I'm shooting the message.

Gee, I should have just written another post, sorry, so long!!!



If you got this far, thanks for reading!!

Love you...Solid
