To: Brown Deer; OldDeckHand

So you think personal insults—and it came across as snarky to me—are the way to go. As a Christian, I refrain when I can. I am unaware that OldDeckHand was persona non grata at FR. Why hasn’t he been banned?

Note: I am a professional writer. In my FR posts I sometimes make mistakes. This is because I write more causally for FR, and sometimes I’m in a hurry. I’ve seen Freepers go hammer and tong after even small mistakes in posts. I’ve never understood that. Where is the Golden Rule in such an attitude? If I had never made even a small mistake in a post, I still wouldn’t come after somebody else for such a thing. Presumably the people at WND are pros. I would draw a distinction between facts they put out on their website and a casual FR post. To do otherwise strikes me as a cheap shot.

lol, are you serious? You must be joking, because it was olddeckhand that made the insult. So maybe you should be a good Christian and direct your thoughts to him, not me.
