Thank you for your honesty. This is the first thing someone has said with any substance compared to the simple name calling, judging and dismissals that have already been offered.

You have a greater insight into her website than I do therefore I can't really agree or disagree with your opinion, but I can agree what you said about Lois personally.

What's wrong with a little honesty now and again? I think it could be that folks are not willing or do not have the ability to explain themselves.

What is this supposed to mean????

ROFLOL...

You mean no calling names like: preacher-hating, Anti-Apostolic wacko in cyberspace can broadast their venom far and wide.

and

she is an unintentional enabler for whiners

Like I said, I have more familiarity with Lois than I do her website. All you would like for me to do is to agree with your opinion. I can't because I don't have enough information and at this point I probably won't have the time or the interest to do the research to enable me either way.

For example...
It could be my opinion that your response is flippant, so in my opinion, you are a flippant individual. See how the game works?

I would call you a name for this ... but since it wouldn't bother you I will just do nothing.

LOL -- I'm merely pointing out that we all name call even when we don't realize it. I didn't post an opinion about Lois' site. I do have one but I didn't post it.

BTW -- you and I know each other back when I went by a different name so you know that I am exactly a "flippant individual". I don't deny I'm a smart alek. I have been all of my life.

Speaking of power! THAT is a powerful statement!

When love looks to the greater good than self.

Wow! I think I have a new sermon brewing in my soul!

I could tell so many stories about both saints and preachers that your eyes would get glassy trying to read them all.

But am i going to air out every time someone has done me or my family wrong?

Absolutely not.

I refuse to put ammunition in the hands of those who would like nothing more than to tear down the Church.

Your mama may have faults; I know mine does.

But I am not going to get on here and expose every wrong thing my mama has ever done.

That is to be kept covered by love.

The church is the mother of us all, and I am not going to run down the Church in the presence of those who don't love her.

Some things have to be dealt with, btu they are private family matters, not for public consumption.

Like the man after God's own heart said, "tell it not in gath..."

The Catholic church tried to do that with an issue recently and it seems that it didn't work that well...

Great post.

Obviously I agree since I already said the exact same thing on an earlier post.

Two great minds...well at least one anyway. Now the pondering begins... Hahaha

But hey, whatever. It's all good. If AFF is known as the reprobate forum - oh well.

OK Here's my apology.

Read it again real slow....

It seems it has caused the proverbial storm in a teapot with some of the posters here.

I have already stated it, but for the sake of PEACE I will say it again.

I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT EVERYONE AT AFF IS REPROBATE.

(I never said that)

OK Got that?

Well let's move on.

I DO NOT BELIEVE EVERYONE AT LOIS' PLACE IS REPROBATE EITHER.

(never said that either)

Of course some will not believe it, but at this point I really don't care, but the post was really in humor.

Kinda of off the cuff.

BUT I said it not someone else.

So I apologize for any hurt that I might have inadvertently caused.

PP, You don't appove of MY apology so...

How about YOU write one, PM it to me and maybe I will get some imput from Admin and some friends and we will see IF we might be able to hammer out somthing that will satisfy YOU.

OK?
