Big Community Board Vent Here!

[ripleysmom]

BTW this thread highlights why I really tend to stay away from the CB. Kristy posted to vent about her feelings and now it has turned into a "Why are you picking on poor Eros?" thread.

When others post that someone on the DIS hurt them or frustrates them or whatever, they get hugs and sympathy. It doesn't get turned around into a thread trashing the original poster.

I guess it's good to see everyone rallying around Eros, however, I think it does speak to the issue of a clique that the original poster is now in the wrong.

Wasn't sure I was going to jump in it took me a long time to figure out why or what happened...

This is my view point and only mine.
I actually like Eros post granted I roll my eyes many times or just pass over it but every time I read one of his "how could God..." post I sit back and think about it and it actually reconfirms my beliefs.(not what Eros was hoping) God didn't let this happen but he is now helping to comfort does that make sense?
It is very hard for me understand someone who doesn't believe but that is because I am a believer. So I say a prayer for the person in the thread and then one for Eros that he finds what he is searching for. Because to me anyone who ask ??? is searching. I am not saying he or any atheis is looking to convert to Christianity but the understanding end of it. Just if I spoke to someone who didn't believe in GOD I would have ?? because it seems so odd for me and doesn't make sense.
To me he must have his reasons why but even if he typed them out in outline form I still wouldn't understand.
Granted I do feel it would be better if he started his own thread or just stayed off but that isn't going to happen.

The Wizard of Oz looked awfully big and bad until they revealed the little weasel behind...

Look, Bill. Is that really your name, Bill? We don't have to know your name to see inside your soul. Most of us don't like what we see. And we know you have a right to be here, but that shouldn't make you feel welcomed by most of us.

Most of us share our real lives and real experiences with people here. Perhaps you don't have those people around you that really care about you. It's not our fault. Don't take it out on us.

Sure, you have some thought provoking things to say. Share those with us, and keep the mean-spirited stuff to yourself.

I am incredulous at how far out of guidelines this is, and how it has been allowed to stand as a post. "Most of us don't like what we see?" Speak for yourself.

I am more conerned that this thread was started as a vent and now turned into a "lets talk about a DIS member and even use their name" It seems to me that this thread was started with malice and not just a vent. It resembles a whining tantrum that a child has. The 'I started a thread and now everyone will not write what I like to hear or agree with. And of of course, He is picking on me!' We have already been there done that. We are beating a dead horse with a stick. ...

As my mother has told me several times. "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen." or better yet, "Do Unto Others as you would have Others Do Unto You."...

Bfeller - couldn't have said it better myself.

6 time Momma,

Is it really you or just the pregnancy hormones talking? you sound like your going ballistic!


My advice is if you feel someone is an idiot, just dont pay attention to them, thats all!

I think enough is enough here. I am working off a dialup and don't have time to go back and read more of this.

If you have nothing nice to say about someone, then say nothing at all please.
