nursekathy2u 0 Posted August 24, 2006 God spelled backwards is Dog. I'm a DeLarlaist and find it pathetic that fighting has gone so far as to dig up belief systems as ammo. Miss Lisa, Your groupies did the digging up of the belief systems to use as ammo. Or perhaps they just flung it back at the "other side" when they dug it up. Regardless, I didnt start it. I am not fighting with ANYONE. I am standing up for my beliefs and stating my opinion. Nothing more.. Nothing less... Feel free to do the same. Kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tired_Old_Man 1 Posted August 24, 2006 Judge a person not by their words, but by their actions. On a forum, actions are not words, but how the words are used. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DonnaB 3 Posted August 24, 2006 Jack, I love your posts. They're always thought provoking or funny. Sometimes both. All the things you've questioned can be attributed to nature. Which makes the real question, how did all this abundant nature accur? How many times multiplication will it take to be able to see the absolute truth? Is there such a thing as absolutes? With so many theories and 'absolute truths' about the sticky subject of religion, I tend to take a wait and see attitude. Before anyone throws my imminent descent into hell for this attitude, I also believe that any god worth worshipping will be understanding of my perspective and continued blissful ignorance. I will say that I'm a little bothered that a thread titled "Sick of this crap" is turning out to be all about god. Hmmmmm. I must have a little belief after all.

Tired_Old_Man 1 Posted August 24, 2006 Nobody should feel that they need to impose their god on anyone else. Not being able to impose one's god on others is not a rejection of that god nor a limitation on the rights of the believer to believe in his/her god. I have a right to pray to my god, but do not have a right to make sure you hear my prayer. This thread has not turned into a thread about God, but was about the use of God right from it's opening post. People who hide behind the Lord to chastise other people or use the Lord to make others feel guilty should be ashamed of themselves. HOW DARE YOU drag the Almighty God into this kind of bickering. Do you keep God on the same level as yourselves?? Keep Him on a leash and turn Him loose whenever it makes you look good?? I can't stand when pious people throw this "I will pray for you crap" around to make them seem holier than thou.. Just as bad are the people who use your christianity to slap you in the face. "I thought you were a Christian"... As if that is something they just came up with and haven't used that line time and time again to attack people. Christians are sinners, people. Jesus is the attonement for our sins. Paul, David and Moses were all murderers for God's sake and the Lord used each of these men in mighty ways. They each wrote major portions of the Bible. God created us to worship Him not to use Him for our own foolish gain. Come ONNNN!!!!! Enough if enough. Dont you all have friends in "real life"?? If your so unhappy online then step away from the keyboard... Shut the dang thing off... move on with your lives.. find another message board where everyone is perfect.. Or do SOMETHING!!!! But leave God out of your petty, childish bickering. If your not a Christian then be a decent human being and leave Him out anyway... He is very important to some people.

DonnaB 3 Posted August 24, 2006 I said "turning out to be all about god." I guess I should have said "turning out to be ALL about god." Once again, inflection or the lack thereof . . . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woodys 0 Posted August 24, 2006 Huh? I'm confused....or dumb....or naive.....or whatever. I opened 3 threads so far this morning and everyone of them expressed such anger...and none of it had anything to do with lapbanding? Think I'll take a break from this forum for awhile....getting way too ridiculous for me...my time is more valuable than this garbage I'm reading. Have a great time with your mud-slinging.

ralheit 1 Posted August 24, 2006 As stated before, this site is for lapband support. Although I do believe that for the most part, the offers of prayer from people on this site is genuine and not meant as a slam or insult. I think we just have to remember that it is meant in a caring way. As far as friends. I have a real feeling of friendship here. Most of the people here are not only here for support but also to help others. That is why I joined this site. Not for all this fighting and carrying on that has been going on this week. Whatever it is about, I think everyone needs to get over it and remember what this site is for and why we are all here. I've only been here since January and maybe I've missed alot of what started this stuff, but as stated before enough is enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
