Been thinking about that post and my easy-going response. As you all know, I'm very slow to take offense. Maybe I was too slow, this time. Jokingly recommending suicide is, IMO, over the line. How did he know I wasn't on the brink? He could have pushed me over the edge. My cheerful, jocular online persona could be just a mask.
Most people would never joke that way, for many reasons. The last-straw danger is probably tiny, for most folks, but it's just in really poor taste. And it could trigger painful memories in some who read it.
But, as they say, "out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh."
Timmy, how did you not know whether I've been suffering from the feeling that nobody listens to me or takes me serious? How do you not know whether I decided because of this if one more person treats me that way it will push me over the edge BEFORE you once again posted one of your disrespectful YAWN smilies?
Seems you take no regard for anyone's feelings but your own. You take no consideration on how your YAWNS make a person feel when you post them. You have never asked if they trigger painful memories when you post them.
But, as they say, "out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh..."

I know this is silly...it is just as silly as your post.

Bro. Blume, your questions are nothing to worry about. The issue at hand is what you said earlier and how truthful you’re being. I am looking forward to seeing how you explain how you answered our posts so accurately while having us on total ignore. I would be happy to find some of these posts of yours if you need. During some of those I even questioned how you were answering us as you did while we were still on ignore. So what is really the truth?
I thought you did not want to deal with personal issues.
Like I said several times now, I told you the truth. You can believe that is a lie if you like.
I can repeat the same thing several times. But since you now claim the issue at hand is my person, it seems you want to discard biblical chat and take part in personal issues. I thought you claimed you are not interested in making discussions personal. What is more personal than disregarding bible for the time being and determining if I am honest or not?
Again, you simply are avoiding answering my questions.

Bro. Blume, you are projecting again. You were the one who made this who thing personal. You were the one who claimed to have put me and Bro. Benincasa on ignore. You were the one who told everybody that you were NOT reading our posts. Then in this thread you calimed we did not answer your questions. When I asked you how you would know that since you had us on ignore, you tghen changed your story and claimed you were reading our posts.
Let me refresh your memory on what you said during that time you supposedly had us on ignore.

The IGNORE function blocks out their posts so that I cannot read them. It has proved useless for me to speak to them.
Seems pretty plain to me. You said we were on ignore for "several weeks." You claimed because of that you were not reading any of our responses to your posts. Now you are saying that this was not true?? And I am the one that is not being truthful here??? Are you serious??

At which time did you tell the truth? Back then or now?? If you can't be trusted with what you said you did then, how can anyone trust your claim to have read what we posted? Remember, you are claiming that we did not answer you. This was during the same time you claimed you were not reading our posts. Can't you see how contradictory that is???

I am not claiming anything. I am only quoting what you had said then and what you are saying now. You are the one who is making yourself look dishonest.

See, that is what you like to make the world think. But anyone who wishes can go to that thread and see that both Bro. Benincasa and I did answer you. But the issue today still is that the above is YOUR OWN WORDS. Think about it Bro. Blume....

He is NOT going to answer your questions instead he will attack you personally or accuse you of not answering his questions after you have answered them. BUt he will post a post with prewritten material that has NOTHING to do with the questions you aksed him. Just my thoughts. You are out of luck he is NOT going to because he can't.

Elderest Epley,
You remind me of what the wise man warned about!
Pro 26:17 He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.
Let these two duke it out, they been doing it for years seems like!
