I thank Thee for the example my sister has set before me, and I humbly petition Thee that in Thy bounteous grace, Thou woldst help me too, for Thy humble servant doth have a great and earnest desire to speakest his mindeth.
And yea, already one infraction doth abide in his profile (but it was worth it).
We ask these blessings in Thy Name,
Amen

Yes, I have one already. Tell, them, H1...tell them that I'm really sweet...in person. Right? I am a sweet person. Really.
I think.
I told a dear friend the other day on the phone that I sometimes have trouble speaking my mind, and she said..."You do?" And then, all flustered, I tried to explain that I do, actually, avoid conflict.... I could feel her disbelief through the phone.

Would you feel comfortable knowing that a leader (not necessarily a preacher) in your church was struggling with his/her eye gate (internet sites or mags) and yet still in a place of heavy use in the church?
What if this man or woman had struggled for a while, perhaps even giving in to the temptation, asking forgiveness, only to return to the temptation, and still wanted to teach others or be used in a leadership role?
How does the church deal with this issue?
To get everybody's mind off of the butt rubbing comment.

I'm still in shock. This info may have ruined my perceptions of some internet friends.

I not so sure. I heard a first-hand account of a most horrific evil covered up by those in power (including destroying the evidence). I think sometimes we lose our way in handling sin among us for the sake of not looking bad in the newspaper.
I think we all do that. Thank God we don't all get what we deserve.
