You are NOT the all-knowing Daniel. It seems that you think you know as fact EVERYTHING there is to know about any situation. You never offer your opinions - just your "knowledge" - From the South Texas District, to the New York Metro District to the Western District to the Apostolic Assemblies - and now to know it was appropriate to go against what a person has been asked to do when singing a specific song.
It would be nice to be so knowledgeable about every subject discussed on this forum.

This is some revelation ???? ... duh.
Someone has been reading my posts intently.
Wow ... I didn't know you read all my posts, Sweet Pea.
I'm honored.
Have another sip of Haterade.

Do you think that people hate you, when they disagree with you?

He must......... I certainly don't "hate" him..... I'm just curious as to how he got so much knowledge at such a young age?
I wasn't even going to respond to his post - but I do want him to know that I don't hate him - I just don't agree with his every post and perception of situations.

That's what makes this a forum son of Popeye.
Different perspectives. I know that's hard coming from your life experience.

You sound like someone did another a favor. Holy smokes!!!!

And it is still going on today in more subtle ways. I will tell you a little story that happened at a high school football game to me and a couple of my friends and co-workers who are black. We were walking up the ramp to the stadium seats and were walking past a couple of prominent women in our little town. As they walked past instead of saying hello, they kind of lowered their heads a little and said "girls". They walked past and I was in shock, I asked one of my friends does that happen often, she said all the time Cindy, all the time. She said you see, we clean their houses too. It literally brought tears to my eyes I was so angry. One of my friends said Cindy that is just the way it is. This was in the 90's BTW.
