Taking a break

Folks, its been a couple days since I have posted here. I simply had my fill and it gave me indigestion.

I was considering not even visiting again, but after all, I did tell DA I would respond to his post.

There have been some good threads here, and I was glad to be a part of them. I may or may not return in the future to share in the good ones. Haven't made up my mind on that yet.

Daniel Alecia, in response to your post.

I have thought about it for several days, prayed about it, and I have decided that There is no reason to continue in that line of posting.
My whole purpose for it was to get people thinking about the gossip and rumors that were/are prevalent on so many threads here. I assumed that apostolics would not be purposefully doing such things, if they were aware that's what they were doing. I started asking questions, asking people to verify their claims, and not post unfounded rumors and speculate on "what if" negativity's, and just pure gossip.
I expected that Apostolics would check ourselves and make sure that the forum was cleaned up and gossip and rumors and bad talking of the ministry would stop, or at least slow down.
Instead, people came out of the woodwork to condemn my questioning, and make fun of my asking for verification of the claims that were being made about pastors and churches. Not only did the rumors and gossip continue/pick up but people had a problem with my pointing it out.

So, I wash my hands of it. No doubt many will have other snide remarks to say, twist what I have said, make fun of it, and continue in the same murmuring, gossiping spirits that have caused this forum be dubbed "the national enquirer for apostolics".
I'm sure there will be all kinds of justifications for it too, and condemning this post as well.

Well, have at it. I'm tired of the smell, so I am climbing out, taking off my jumpsuit, and going to higher ground.

Someone else complained about the negativity on this forum, a few of us chimed in, and we were told, "quit whining, do something about it."
Well, the admins are the ones who can really do something. As posters, all we can do really is speak out against it and pray.

Its quite obvious the folks involved don't want it to change, and will jump anyone that rocks the boat.

I may be back, I may not. But if I do return, it will be as "meBNme" not some new name. I say what I say, and I stand by it, or acknowledge the faults otherwise. So before you jump on the next newbie that comes in, it ain't me. If its me, it will be "meBNme". (that's another thing I've noticed some of you are so quick to assume and accuse of.)

To all of the 'other' posters on here.
It has been nice talking with you, and If I don't return here, I hope top see you on other forums.
Good luck with your "boat rockin"


PS.... out of courtesy and respect, I will return in a day or so to read this thread.
I don't believe in starting threads, expecting someone to read it, and never showing the consideration to read replies.
