"The world" is essentially the same as your "everyone." If we follow your premise, Jesus is the One with the problem and not the world.

God hates sin. Yet "everyone" claims to have "free will" and, thus, the RIGHT to do whatever one pleases. If we follow your premise, God is the one with the problem (He hates sin).

If I say, "God does not call women to the five-fold ministry" and just about everyone here stupidly interprets that statement to mean that I hate women, that doesn't make "everyone" right. If the Apostle Paul, under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost, says "I do not allow a woman to teach" and "everyone" says "Paul is a male chauvanist pig" does that mean "everyone" is right?

There was a time when "everyone" insisted the world was flat. Were those who claimed the world was round (well, spherical) wrong just because "everyone" disagreed with them?
Chancellor, I think you would argue with a sign if you painted it.

Saying the world is flat is not akin to someone saying you have a problem. I am speaking in the realm of knowns not unknowns.

Yes, and "everyone" back then just knew the world was flat. What you're really doing is you're trying to justify claiming that your "perception" of someone is fact.

What I am actually doping is trying to make someone see the forest but their view is blocked by the trees.

Chancellor, you do realize that statements such as I made are not blanket statements, right? You do understand that the statement really is correct in the overall, right?

I understand that you believe it is generally correct (or, as you put it, "correct in the overall"); I just happen to disagree with that belief. Perception is not fact.

This of course depends on who "here stupidly interprets that statement"

Speaking of abuse....Someone took the liberty to help me out with my issues in relation to my son's upcoming wedding. We women post all our grievances and concerns on Dear Gabby's for prayer and advice and seeking the counsel of many...and I participated.

Someone took it a step farther though...went to three forums, cut and pasted all my posts and sent them to my children. My ex-husband's wife has been posting here under a psuedo name and trying to cause trouble.

To the person who thought they were helping...shame on you. To me for posting my problems here...shame on me. The definition of an idiot is: " When a person continues to do the same thing, in the same way, hoping to get a different result. This is me. I am an idiot.

The abuse against myself has to stop. So it is stopping here. To those who don't like my profession and think it against God...well, you are welcome to your opinion, Chancellor in particular.

To those who like contacting Pastors and children with the intent to cause trouble... bless you. To the administrative staff trying to deal with it...I appreciate all your efforts but this is something I will have to handle.

I have enjoyed my postings on the past three forums and it has kept me sane, for the most part...now it is time to move on. For my own sake.

Love & Blessings, Rhonda
