It was pointed out to me that if I use an internet reference that it should be marked with quotation marks or a link for referencing. I typically use scriptures; then draw out a point, in my posts and responses. But I had used information in the first paragraphs trying to draw a comparison between Kabbalah and Hinduism. I now understand that if you use a reference within a post that it should be sourced. Though I did not agree with the method, I did agree with the message that honesty and integrity must be maintained. I acknowledge my error: posted the link, and assured the poster that I would abide by posting rules. I had believed that poster accepted my apology and we moved on. When I saw that someone had taken satisfaction with this rebuke, I could only assume that I must have offended him. Maybe a hateful response when struggling with negative comments a year ago. One lesson I learned from the experience a year ago is that words matter. Just because I cannot see the person behind the keyboard, I must realize that they are just as precious to our Heavenly Father’s sight as I am. I had tried to apologize, but it was not my intent for anyone to be blocked. This only confirms to me that I need more wisdom with my responses.

I don't know if this well help, I hope so.

I think you are very idealistic and also have a tender heart.

Some advise to never discuss politics or religion, which is pretty much all that is discussed here. There are people here who hold opposing viewpoints. People consider their views (understandably so) to be a matter of life or death, a matter of the destruction of society, matters worth fighting over. People become used to expressing strong opinions. This means that this forum will have heated discussions which sometimes get out of hand. If you feel you are being stressed over the forum take a break from time to time. Bro Benincasa says: "sometimes you are the bug, sometimes you are the windshield" take things as a matter of course without taking them to heart so. My feeling get hurt on this forum also. I find there is enough that is interesting to make it worth staying, most of the time.

Like "locked" like we can't go back to it? Is the poster that's responsible for that still posting that sounds crazy.

Get your heart off your sleeve Brother and put it back in your chest. There's nothing on here to even take that personal. I may at times for a second but then, I go away and comeback. If you are losing sleep over this place, or even have this place dominate your thoughts at times it's best to clear your mind up. There is some positives about this place but a lot of negatives too. I've been trying dto wean myself off, but it's a little easier said then done! Lol

Just take all this stuff with a grain of salt. Take from the positive and leave the rest. Some of the stuff on here that people say, is stuff that doesn't even deserve consideration, the end of that matter is apparent! Have a good day and God bless!
