Then maybe silence just indicates that one has grown weary of bad spirits, accusing attitudes, and a constant attack on ones faith, or "standards" as seems to be the target. We get enough of that crud in the world, so why would one invite that from "the brethren" as well?


"afraid to tackle on certain issues"???

How about sick and tired of the fighting and negative spirits and murmuring that comes from so called "brothers and sisters" in the church. And yes, it comes from both sides. Yes there are nuts on both sides as well but there is a mistake that the liberal "nuts" are making. (and some who are borderline nuts at times) And that mistake is lumping everyone who is a little more conservative than themselves into the same pile.

Sure, there are hanky stomping, snot slinging psycho nut job "ultra cons" out there, but that DOES NOT mean that everyone who is a conservative fits that description. But so often we get lumped into the same group. When that happens, we often just throw up our hands in disgust, write those offenders off as the same foaming at the mouth idiots that they are accusing everyone else of being. Then they get ignored and the conservatives leave, and they can continue to beat a dead horse until they pass out from exhaustion. All the while, feeling like they "won" and drove the cons away by "proving them wrong".


Funny thing is, they then say WE are the closed minded ones!
Go figure.


CHILL!!!
