    So now that you've clarified that where are you going to go from there?

    Nowhere. Why do you ask?

    I don't think she is lying about how her mother died, Mrs. J. I never even gave it a thought like that. But here is what I do think. She collects information about people, and then uses it to her advantage in debate. She did it to me, when I was clarifying something on apologies. She actually extrapolated a great deal more from what I had said, and then used it against me to score some points. It was shameful on her part, but she does it quite often. Her attacks are quite presumptuous and personal.

    And this is something else I know. She claims our rejection of her cheap peace wishes are a rejection of peace. She claims a rejection of peace is like a cancer. Therefore, our rejection of her insincere wishes for peace is like a cancer. Can Shelby talk about cancer? Yes she can. Can she compare my rejection of bullshit to cancer? Yes she can, but not without challenge. Context is everything.

    Now, if pity is what he wants... well, he probably gets enough of that from you.

    Is that so? And what do you know of it, Shelby?

    I'm sorry - do you really believe you can tell me what to do/not do?

    Well I just did. It was to contrast you blathering about Cofty's supposed 'anger' issues to how little you really know, and how willing you are to make assumptions about a person you do not know. How are your anger issues Shelby? Can I help in any way? I really wish you well with them. See how that works?

    And... so? What in the WORLD does that have to do with the price of tea in China... or this matter?

    As much as Cofty's alleged 'anger' issues had to do with anything that was up for debate.

    Ah, yes, okay... it's okay for YOU to pity someone. There's goes that "h" word, again. Good LORDY, I'll be glad when some of "you" really start understanding what it means...

    And you don't understand sarcasm. You offered pity to Cofty for his anger issues---so I offered you some pity too. Did it not feel good?

    Oh, please. Pity is not the word, here. The words are jealousy and envy. And you know it. C'mon, now, since you're doing all of your damning talk - let's at least TRY to be honest.

    OMFSM! Now THAT was funny.

    Even their wish for peace. I take them as they come... and give them the benefit of the doubt that they're sincere and mean what they say. I mean, I don't NEED your sympathy, but I certainly wouldn't throw it back in your face if I thought you were sincere. And I do think you are. So, it's really not NECESSARY... but, thank you - I do appreciate the sentiment.

    My sympathies were as genuine as your wishes for peace. It was sarcasm---but if you need it, take it.

    Don't take this wrong, but I understood that a man's penis was his god.......

    No mystical experieces for me, I have rather found learning more about myself, who I am, what I want, where I am going, was the place to start hearing and feeling, second, getting to know and have emotion for those I care about and how to help others. It seems so backwards to try to connect with a mystical being you can't see or hear, and not be in a position to reach within your very human self.

    Thanks Blondie. The topic has been detailed for quite some time.

    And if anyone is interested I've never claimed to hear god, don't ever expect to, nor do I care to. Take from that what you will.

    Hey BTS!..

    That sure as hell was a cheap shot. I wasn't born yesterday. That was a passive aggressive cheap shot.

    I know Shelby..

    I really don`t believe she said it to be mean..

    I can understand someone not knowing about a previous post.

    That would create a shit storm for saying the wrong thing on this thread..

    I don`t want to upset Cofty more than he has been..

    So..

    I`ll leave it at that..

    I`ll have a nice shot of rye for you later on tonight..

    Maybe 2..LOL!!..
